The 360 sales charts always seem weird - didn't Mircrosoft say the sold 10 million as of the close of 2006? That would mean they haven't even sold half a million in 7 months - which contradicts what we've been hearing. More likely that they didn't hit their goal last year I would think. I also wonder how RRoD comes in to play - I guess most people are getting refurbs as replacements so it probably doesn't have a huge impact.

I think these are clearly different builds - considering the disparity. I think in the end they'll both look and play well. The difference for me comes down to the fact that I like the PS3 controller better and would rather not pay to play online - so unless they really screw it up, and I don't think that's going to happen, I'll probably go with the PS3 version.

I think it would be great if gaming award shows dropped categories like "Hottest Babe" in exchange for thing like "Best Art Direction". They should take a cue from the Academy Awards and the like - try and take the gaming industry seriously for once instead of try in to be like the MTV Movie Awards.

I think I'll stick with the PS3 version thanks.

Do you have a PS3? I'm guessing no. RFOM has easily the most impressive AI I've seen in a console game. I actually just played through Halo 1 and 2 and I have to disagree. I think the Halo did a good job with AI, particularly good given when it came out, but RFOM is just better. It's funny, I noticed how much better the physics were in Halo compared to Gears and the AI was pretty much on par. I found places in both Halo and Gears when you can walk up on the side of an enemy - where you should...

They don't release figures on it, but I gotta think there are at least a million out there easy. Probably more like 2 or more. Somebody's certainly buying them - makes no sense to me, but they're selling.

The Core was a bad move from the get go. I'll never get why Microsoft went from standard HDD on Xbox to optional HDD on the 360. Price point is the only logical argument, but they launched a year ahead - so I still don't get it.

It's lame that developers have had to develop games as though there isn't an HDD when the vast majority do have them. That's my main gripe with the Core's existence.

Microsoft absolutely did promise that you could play all games on the Co...

OK - all video game audio is going to be compressed somehow. It's how much, or rather how little, that counts. Less is more here in a big way.

Oblivion also had like 2 male voices and 2 female voices for hundreds of different people. I don't know if we should point to that game as the role model.

That's some seriously fuzzy logic there. You think that they have different music and sound effects for each region? It says 10 gigs of SOUND not LANGUAGES. Sure they could get that down if they didn't include as many languages, probably enough to fit on a DVD 9 - "fit" being the keyword. It would certainly still be taking up a mess of space.

Bummer we can't install off the disc. Guessing it's to combat piracy.

All these articles just remind me of what a bunch slackers EA Tiburon must be. That or woefully understaffed - probably the latter, or some of both. I guess they just don't care about releasing mediocre version after mediocre version because it sells well regardless, especially since the exclusive license with the NFL. I'd like to think that people would just not but the game at some point - make EA snap out of it, but that doesn't seem to be happening either. Is Madden America's Gundam? <...

That is an excruciatingly bad Jamiroquai cover - the one in Elite Beats Agents wasn't great, but it was a million times better than this one.

I've been hearing about how the press is so excited for this game, but this video makes it look incredibly lame. Am I wrong or does it look like 90% of the gameplay is tapping quarter notes on the A button? The metronome game!?!?

I'll stick with GH and RB thanks.

Once again the Core makes a liar out of Microsoft. For those saying it's not big deal - all you have to do is go back and read all the quotes out of Microsoft saying that this wold never happen and that the Core would support EVERY game.

You can put this on the shelf right next to them saying that they wouldn't introduce new features without an upgrade path for all models (the Core) <cough>HDMI<cough> .

I've always thought the Core was a mistake, and...

He's probably on Nectar. Mantel is so after him.

Maybe that sounds less retarded in Japanese. Probably, if Naruto fansubs have taught me anything it's that Japanese is a fun language.

Good to hear though - what with everyone else always saying "Games should feel like work" and the like.

I was just flying my dragon this afternoon and he, as usual, shot fireballs all over the place. I really can't take him to the dog park anymore. EGM writers clearly don't know their dragon facts.

Another good reason to not do drugs. (Pretty sure this guy was on something like meth etc.)
