Don't laugh too hard... lest you forget

Aug 27, 2007 - The last-gen console (PS2) has outsold Sony's new flagship, the PlayStation 3, every month since the latter first launched this past October. By comparison, Microsoft's Xbox 360 has only outsold the PS2 twice during its 21 month life. The PS2 has even outsold the popular Wii on several occasions, though the Nintendo console outperforms the PS2 more often than not.


... and how is this 'real MGS game' such a victory among posters in this site - when it's a PSP and not a PS3 game? How is the gameplay so different that it COULD NOT be made on the PS3 as Kojima Productions have stated?

Did you totally ignore the most recent comments from Kojima concerning his involvement with MGS: Rising?

Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima will have more involvement in MGS Rising than he has previously let on.

"I'll be working more deeply on the project then a normal producer," Kojima explained to Japanese magazin...

Four Xbox 360 models, with the Core and the Arcade being basically the same model. The chip size changes are a different matter, as those occur for the PS3 as well... and while they are different VERSIONS, they aren't really different models.

There have been 5 - PS3 models, with some of those models having two versions. One of the 60GB versions came with the PS2 EE hardware, and the other 60GB version came instead with software emulation for PS2 backwards compatibility. Then ther...

No you do not...

You just get the TRAILER for the upcoming blu-ray release of the Ghostbuster movie --> you do not get the full movie at all, included with the PS3 video game.

If you have the nerve... listen to the complete and official - Kojima Productions podcast.

Also - this is the site that translated the interview published by the Japanese magazine, Dengeki: PlayStation.


They are merely expanding their appeal... just as Sony is doing with their motion sensing technology.

Both already have started before this with their camera-based games.. and will continue to do so because of the obvious success Nintendo has had - and Nintendo has been crushingly successful with far less power under their home consoles' hood.

Just because both...

IMO - Uncharted 2 is one game that looks better in motion... a great looking game.

Hmmmm... so much for those in here that talk about rehashed games on the Xbox 360 marketplace vs original PSN games.

A great deal, especially since sometime next spring, the PS3 motion controller will be released and one requires the EyeToy to fully utilize the controller with upcoming games.

People are forgetting that Criterion also developed the middleware - RenderWare.

RenderWare's principal commercial importance was in providing an off-the-shelf solution to the difficulties of PS2 graphics programming. It was almost describable as "Sony's DirectX" during this era.

Or just maybe it's just an Xbox 360 'slim-type' version... much like the rumored PS3 slim model that people speculate about.

IMO - I doubt that Microsoft would alienate its user base with another Xbox 360 model that run games better and is graphically superior than existing models. The one to do that to would be the next-gen version of whatever Microsoft calls its new home console.

If the 360 was in fact 'maxed out 'as some have stated.... or would like to believe... then how come Kojima Productions have stated that MGS: Rising will be graphically better than MGS4, and that MGS: Rising will be a game that pushes beyond anything you've seen on any of the platforms?

Those that suffered blu-ray drive issues had to pay for repair after their warranty ran out.

IMO - the guy shouldn't have to pay for the video card issue - I agree... however - a simple solution to the non-coverage is to leave his 360 on until it RRoDs... and then send it back to Microsoft to be repaired free of charge.

--> First off, research has shown that the majority of consumers will pick 3rd party warranties over manufacterers warranties. That means, if something breaks down they'll take it back to the store where they purchased it before sending it in.

LOL - First off - The THREE year RRoD warranty for each and every Xbox 360 is FREEEEEEEEEEEE from date of purchase!

Secondly - Every Xbox 360 comes with a standard ONE year warranty as well - regardless of RRoD issues.

The PSP 2000 has a better battery. Bah!

There's always --> The PlayStation Portable Extended Life Battery Kit for $44.99... if in fact it even works for the PSP GO....

Yet EA is one to talk and to be believed? Yeeeeeeeesh!

Just ignore the fact that Microsoft repaired any 360 that suffered from the RRoD issues. People are covered for three years from time of purchase. Those that initially paid for repairs before the three year warranty was established were reimbursed by Microsoft as well.
