yet another overhyped sony exclusive ending up a failure, what a surprise. How many is that now? I've lost count.
I may get a ps3 one day just for blueray movies, i just wish they would be able to develope a decent title.. rather then just overhyping and underdelivering constantly. please sony fans don't tell me about how great res2 or killzone will be, you haven't played them! Just because they are over hyped (like every sony game) does not mean they will be good! Not a sing...
I agree, gameplay doesn't look all that great, I'd like to see just a remake of the old atari games..
I am surprised at how much the sony fans are in denial.. i mean look at the npd.. thats 20,000 more units this month, for a console that already has the lead, and has already been out for a year b4 the ps3 even came out. I mean its expected that the ps3 should be outselling the 360, because the 360 has not had as significant of a price drop as the ps3 has (the ps3 is pratically giving itself away - cheapest blueray player, and cheapest cell processor pc), and still the 360 outsells it.
I don't know why you guys are giving him a hard time for gaming when he is 40.. nothing wrong with gaming, Im 29, and I wouldn't want to stop gaming just because i am 40.. hell, i am looking forward to the day I retire at 55 so i can game as much as I want without having to worry about work. What else would I do? watch tv, its all media control garbage, movies are generally remakes, rarely is anything actually new. Read about politicians and the corruption of the government? no thanks. pla...
You make very good points crmbe.
I am a 360 owner, and have absolutely no interest in picking up the ps3. For the reason you stated, i am of a pc gaming background.. multiplayer games (shooters, mmorpgs, rts's) I never picked up a console last generation simply because I was tired of single player games.. to me what is the point of playing a single player game when you cannot show off your gear/skill or the work you put in with your friends. I couldn't even play through all of...
um, age of conan and huxley are 2 mmorpg's that are announced to be coming to the 360 within one year, and they both have better graphics then final fantasy..
if halo3 can sell 8 million units, thats more then enough for an mmo to survive, actually most mmo's namely sony mmo's like EQ 1-2, vangaurd, swg, and matrix online ect.. do not have anymore then a few hundred thousand subscribers and they are "living". i mean, 300,000 x 12 dollars a month = 3.6 million a mont...
You would think they could piece together how shipping works, and why/how an area would recieve a bulk of defective units during a particular period.
You see there are manufacturing plants.. that build particular electronics to be distributed - in this case xbox 360's. Normally each plant is designated a city to ship its products to for distribution, they normally distribute to multiple cities.. however a particular city generally does not recieve from multiple manufacturing ...
I agree with the article
age of conan is a 360 exclusive that i feel blows everything sony has to offer this year away.. I am pretty tired of the standard fps's, cod4, halo3, rainbow 6 are great.. but i am really not interested in resistance and killzone, they look very repetitive and uninspired and the AI looks awful - having more players in multiplayer does not make a game better, you just need to look at frontlines to see why. GT prologue was horrible compared to forza racin...
It is not often that a reviewer makes a fansite of a game his coworker is reviewing. I am looking forward to when this game is moved over to the 360... too bad the ps3 isn't getting any good mmorpgs
oh yeah, i am on my 3rd ps3 now over the past year.. i continually get this 80010514 error message with the blueray drive.
Its not just me either, i have 5 friends that own ps3's and 4 of them have also had to return their ps3's for the same reason. :(
oh yeah and when i called sony support it took hours just to get a rep on the line, same with all my friends, its like they just have one agent. And their warranty does not cover the error after the first year..

metacritic are not biased.. they combine the review scores then give you a percentage..
so say if they have 3 reviews 4/10, 7/10, 9/10
they add them up 4+7+9 = 20
then divide that number by the max score the game could have in 3 reviews = 30
30/20 = 0.67% (rounding up)
Its pretty simple math really, and has nothing to do with metacritics generalized opinion.. In the cases of the examples given they added up 70+ reviews for each game, and thos...
It makes sense, they are cutting down desktop manufacturing plants, and are therefore cutting the jobs associated with them. The demand for desktops is obviously dropping as laptops are taking over the pc market share.
decent list.. missed a few though..
mario brothers original for the NES? mario and luigi
operation flashpoint pc version? fully player customizable coop maps from structures to video cut scenes.. well pretty much everything. and supported squads of players.. i played that game for 2 years straight.. i'd still be playing it today if the graphics weren't so outdated..
rainbow six vegas? with terrorist hunts, it is much better then the halo coop series imho..
Actually a lot of it is not true.
-the tough guy sales rep isn't even with microsoft anymore, gates has also retired
-hdmi is not on just the elite, but is on other versions as well
-faceplates are exchangeable
-it has more then one good rpg (oblivion, mass effect, lost odyssey, fable 2, too human, more to come).. ps3 is the one with just oblivion at this time)
- the rest of the video is just repeating the rrod issue in different ways (overheating/s...
I prefer the limited respawn.. its meant to be a tactical game.. your supposed to take your time at every corner.. with endless respawn its just a race to see who can get the most kills so the successful players are forced to charge over and over again to get the most kills.. there is no time to think strategically..
I understand why these sony fans are all anti ubisoft now, I would be devastated if the 360 was the lesser console for this game. Since I love this game so very much, it is imho the best coop shooter on any console - ever. I can't even bring myself to laugh at the ps3 owners.. i just feel sorry for them for wasting so much money on such an inferior and hopeless product..
but really sony fans, don't take out your poor decision of buying the ps3 on ubisoft. It is not their f...
He is ignoring pc in this arguement because obviously pc is going to be better then both consoles within a year or two. I don't understand why your trying to word it so that it is superior to the 360 and not the ps3. Why, because ps3 has blueray?! pc's have blueray as well.. or because it has a few extra exclusives?.. the 360 does as well..
All arguements that you use for pro pc over 360 can be used as pro pc over ps3. Your just proving the fact that these consoles are becomi...
When the game is installed on your ps3's open hard drive. that hard drive can be plugged into your computer and accessed. Once accessed the modder can change/add game files to make for example "an ammo clip of a gun unlimited" or create "auto aim bots" or "make the enemy team glow a bright blue".
The 360 does not have to worry about this since you cannot install the games to the locked down hard drive, or modify the game contents on the disk itsel...
well, acting isn't that easy honestly.. mocap and voice. But still he made 100,000 bucks for 1 year of work, thats probably twice as much as the programmers or animators and their jobs are not easy either! not to mention the recognition he gets from this job.
For him to think that 'his' work is what sold the game is completely wrong, it wasn't the voice acting that sold previous grand theft autos, not so much as the gameplay/graphics anyway. When I went to the store to buy GTA...
