Microsoft believe in being better in every single possible way. The Xbox 360 is now, by a huge margin, the gamer's choice of consoles from this generation. It is cheaper to buy, has far more games available and has the best online gaming service on earth, Xbox Live. Little wonder that in September Microsoft sold $404 million of Xbox 360 hardware, software and peripherals in North America alone. A phenomenal result.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
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.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
What Earth, you must mean 3rd Earth where the thundercats live
and you might wanna take it down a notch, your fanboyism is starting to show
I think this writer wrote this article with his Xbox Fanboy goggles on.
"The Xbox 360 is now, by a huge margin, the gamer’s choice of consoles from this generation."
-Funny, because the Wii is leading by a mile, and at the same time the PS3 is closing in fast.
"In September Microsoft sold $404 million of Xbox 360 hardware, software and peripherals in North America alone"
-Might be because they offered a more complete package, and let their fans play free online, you know just saying.
"Part of the success is down to platform exclusives."
-A good reason, if you like the Xbox and it's games.
"There is the constant upgrading of Live to become a media hub, with HD movie rental, Facebook, Twitter, Zune and Sky Player on the way. This makes the 360 by far the most powerful entertainment hub that you can connect to your television"
-Ever heard of the PC? no, then how about the PS3?
"Also, quietly but persistently, Microsoft are moving content distribution away from the physical plastic and cardboard sold at retail. Online is the future and Microsoft are already there."
-Siren, Warhawk, SOCOM, WIPEOUT, GRAN TURISMO: Prologue, all wants to say hello.
"As if the weren’t enough we have Project Natal on the way."
-To early to tell, but my initial impressions left me unimpressed, but that's just my opinion.
"People scoff when I say that I think that the Xbox 360 will ultimately outsell the current non HD version of the Nintendo Wii. But I still think that it will"
-At $200 the 360 could not outsell the $250 non-HD WII, what more at the same price? Besides, MS should worry more about the PS3, before they can think of catching the WII.
The 360 which has a laughable lack of EXLUSIVE games compared to the PS3 and its flood of "AAA" exclusives.
fixed.
A triple A game is only such when ,its in your hands and you can vouch for it from personal experience kiddo.jus sayin..and why waste time postin a wall of text. fanboy much? i dunno whose worse, the guy who wrote that blog or you....
