soda, you have no idea how this games console work do you?? the console doesn't technically play the game or actually store the games. the console is just a terminal. it's like remote desktop access.
the game is stored and runs on a mainframe and the images are then relayed to your tv via the 'console'. it is basically an interactive streaming service.
it's like having an ipod but all the music sits on a server that doesn't belong to you. if the connection betwee...
subscription based gaming? no thanks - being a games and consoles collector i rather own the games. a buy a gmae for 10 bucks i can play it for 100 years. and if the company goes under then you have no games to play even after paying years of subscriptions. i can still play games on my commodore 64 even though commodore 64 has been dead for years.
the day to day cost of gaming being beyond my control is not something that appeals. subsciption fees can rise.

it is all due to fx movements.. just look on the atlas and see how close japan and korea are and then look at where the yen (JPY) and korean (KRW) exchange has moved
When asked if it was a new IP or not: "Er...no. I mean, no, we can't say whether it is or it isn't." -psxextreme
there are no disclosure problems to say a title is a new ip but to say a title is an existing ip can create a lot of unwanted speculation.
when combined with the fact the game is a system seller can only mean that it is a sequel to existing ip.

private surfing mode = porn surfing mode?
or when you get to one bubble just create another account and keep doing the hating over and over again for the rest of your meaningful life.

don't bother reading this statement because it will waste 5 seconds of your life.
you enjoyed the interpretive nature of flower?
don't get me wrong since i own flower but flower has as much storyline as tetris. you are a petal, you fly around touching other petals whilst avoiding electricity pylons. its plot and synonym (correct word?) can be deduced by a 5th grader within 1 minute of playing - there isn't anything deep about it: nature is in peril save it by flying a petal around, end of.
the game is designed to be relaxing and mesmerising - an...
funny how you gave flower a 8/10 for storyline.. and complain about killzone 2 not having a storyline..
i think this says it all for me.
seems like anyone with a games console can post an article on N4G these days.
why are so many gaming 'journalist' so stupid they make catwalk models seem like nobel prize winners. the reason why ps3 sales overtook xbox sales early last year was an effective ps3 price cut and the only reason the xbox retook the lead was two xbox price cuts in europe.
so to say price cuts won't make a difference is to stick one's head up one's backside and ignore everything that has happened before; past history shows price cuts make a difference.
think about i...
ghoul,
ever since the dawn of gaming franchises, and sequels have beem jumping between consoles.
i said it was a timed exclusive yesterday and got a load of disagrees. i also said that EA will not make any comments on a ps3 version which is exactly what they have just done.
EA can not deny or confirm the existance of ME2 for ps3 because this is the exclusivity deal with MS.
for all the disagreers i just don't want you to get the impression that i am spoiling your party on me2 being exclusive. just check my xbox gamer profile (anhduong) you will see i have 29 xbox 360 games and one of them includes me. i got no gamer points on them because i am using a new profile. i.e. i have no reason to hate the xbox.
anyway, my point is mass effect 2 is 100000% coming out on the ps3. it will be out around 9 months to a year after the xbox version but it is com...
william usher what a suprise.. william how about i tell you that the cfo of the biggest division within EA disagrees with you..
william usher, the guy who thinks that flower, flow, or any of the art games shouldn't belong on the ps3
i mean william usher says sales ps3 sales for gta 4 were bad???? and he says that mass effect 2 is built for xbox 360 from the ground upwards when mass effect was built using the unreal engine which is a generic engine available to both ...
How about I tell you to check my facebook account and check that my friends list. A well-informed source (by this i mean someone right at the top - not some ea numbnut) on this list tells me it is coming out on the ps3 after a slight delay.
it ain't just a friend of a friend rumor.
these are the types of articles that will always get fanboys to mass debate
i play violent games and they never done me any harm
this issure of outlawing violent games because they make people violent makes me so angry i want to rip off the heads of people who come up with such a stupid plan.. not only that i will probably microwave their cats and sell the dogs to the local korean restuarant.. this makes me so mad with anger - i mean, preposterous: the idea that video games can make you violent.. now where is that bottle of chianti.. some tasty slith...
this is probably coming from politicans who all voted for the war in iraq
good idea in principle but won't work in practice. on a pc this will most use a thin client and i don't think onlive's internet infrastucture is good enough to allow streaming of high definition multiplayer lagfree gaming. on a small scale the system can be proven to work (i can even stream gaming acros computers on my home network) but when scaled across millions of users i doubt onlive has the necessary tech framework.
i have a megafast internet at work and even that struggle...
