Poor Xbots

Poor Xbots, Ultimate Firmware 2.40 In-Game XMB Guide, is just the beginning for the apocalypse for the XBL. Poor Xbots, when HOME releases, people will switch from waiting their fixme dvd player returning fom M$, to spending some sweet time in HOME.

poor sonyfanboys claiming trophies are better but don't support older games. and a gimped firmware thats been taken down until further notices. yeah 2.40 is so much better.

juuken6565d ago

Poor vega...rehashing the same arguments over and over again. Poor vega, claiming that he has a PS3 and yet he finds every single PS3 article to sh*t on.

Poor vega...such a sad, sad little boy.

Shane Kim6564d ago

Vega are you stupid? How can you like my machine? Its just written fail all over it. Im going to beg on my knees and hope Sony want to employ me.

rbrtchng6564d ago

At least PS3 does support older games.

360 can't even play original Xbox's games.

Sez 6564d ago (Edited 6564d ago )

ahh poor sonyfanboys. whats the matter you sound upset. it must really hurt your hearts to know that i own a ps3 and like the 360 way better. PSN is garbage but FREE. trophies is a joke because it's HALF-ASSED. the firmware is gimped. an the best part it took 2 years just to get a HALF-ASS wannbe copy of live to the market. wow sony you are the best at copying and implementing things half-ass. look at the sixaxis (copy of the wii-mote) how many games support this feature? only a handfull. sounds famillar? sure it does it the same thing they are doing with trophies.why just so sony can say.look we have motion-controls like the wii. and now we have trophies and some of the things MS offer with LIVE. sony's motto should be JACK OF ALL TRADES, MASTER OF NONE.

pumpkinpunker6564d ago

so pathetic when sony fanboys brag about a faulty update that is bricking PS3s and was pulled because of this.

it must really suck to own a $500 hunk of crap that's online service is years behind the times and keeps trying to catch up. the lag on PSN is a joke. i've watched it firsthand. I will never, ever buy a ps3. I have a friend who has one and I feel bad for him. i wonder if PS3 fanboys even know or care to recognize that for the most part xbox live is lag free and you don't have to sit around for 10 seconds everytime you switch screens.

you think I just bought an xbox cause I love microsoft? i don't care about microsoft. no, i watched both consoles in action and chose the far superior one even though I knew I'd have to pay 4 bucks a month for online multiplayer.

Since a lot of people still dont have 2.40...they will now know what to do..and expect..

Omegasyde6565d ago

I understand 2.4 is the beginning of something beautiful,however I really wish they would of waited a month or so for more games to implement the features like trophies and in game music.

Its cool having the tool, but with no game to utilize the music option its like dangling a horse in front of the carrots mouth. Same goes for Trophies, with just one game support.

I guess I am one of the few whom would of rather waited to get more than just monkeybars in the sandbox ;) BRING ON THE SWINGSET!

Bob Dole6564d ago

Hehehe you said dangling a horse in front of the carrots mouth :D

QueefyB6564d ago

first hello bob dole how are you doing

second to omegasyde you must be very powerful like kratos to dangle a horse

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle59d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7758d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde65d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy66d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7767d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga67d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199266d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga66d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman66d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger66d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box67d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion66d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7267d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7567d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit67d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14967d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7767d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
