now you can understand why there are crazy extremist nutcases who fly planes into buildings when you have got a whole bunch of people here who can get so worked up on a resolution difference that even a perfectly trained eye can't even see.
sony/microsoft = the religion
gaming journalist = clerics
fanboys = matyrs
my contention is not with the faboys but with the journalists who perpetuate these sort of hit-whoring imflamatory articles.
it's not on the news for being racists. it's on the news for having a song that contains words from the quaran. the song is by a popular singer and the song itself is sensitive to islam and muslims.
the patched disk no longer contains the song. what sony did has gained respect from muslim people - it shows sony is sensitive to muslim issues. there are no muslim boycott
so i have no idea where you got this lbp is racist idea from. do you really believe that pare...
gta had a very very big marketing budget because take two was in a fight for survival (ea takeover) and it's independence rested on the success of gta. we will never know how much taketwo spent in marketing gta but i know for sure it was increased due to the ea takeover threat.
the failure of gta to sale by a very big number would necessarily mean the end of taketwo. take two needed to print gta sales near the 10 million mark to say to analyst "we can do this on our own&q...
sony has been promoting this game continuously since the last e3. i think their promotion budget is as big as any previous ps3 game. there are bundles, tv ads, headlines (the game was used to headlin e3 07. e3 08, gdc and tgs), roadshows, betas, press interviews. you will also find most of the tv ad campaigns only start when the game has been released.
the games promotion budget might not be on a par with halo but i think it is at least on a par with any other game out there. <...
damn.. little big fatwa

ps3 needs a price cut but i don't think they care who wins this generation so much.. for sony making,money is most important in this current credit crunch environment.
i think sony should cut the price to win but currently profitability and not winning is their utmost priority - i don't blame them.. no company can ever compete with ms on price..
the version that looks best depends not on the actual version but on the eyesight of the player and the TV and setup of the user.
i agree the ps3 =/= wii. i have wii and only use it for casual/party games. for the rest of my gaming the ps3 (recent xbox purchase) will suffice.. people who write articles like these miss the point altogether
i would never own both consoles.. i own all three instead!
no wonder i suck at computer games
i am no expert but these might be the reason:
1. saves money
2. makes it harder to brick since only the really basic operating system loader is in flash. if the main systems screws you just need to reset the hard drive.
3. a trend in moving the system functions onto the hard drive as the ps3 gains more functionality. updates to ps3 firmware is on a piece meal basis - like installing addons instead of reflashing the whole chip which has its inherent risks of bricking....
i am getting myself an xbox for this price. no reason not to
this guy is a true professional.. he hasn't let fame go to his head..
in gaming there are only a handful of legends and you will notice that these legends tend to have a great deal of humility and respect for their competitors.
i think cliff b and d jaffe needs to learn from ted.. don't let fame get to your head.. the developrs grave yard is littered with over inflated egos.
soccer = the biggest sport in the world , both watched and played

"Why the Sega Dreamcast won the last console war by Don Reisinger
"OK, so maybe the Dreamcast didn't really win the last console war. But who cares? The way I see it, the Dreamcast was the best console of them all. If you wanted to play great games, one of the best places to do so was on the Dreamcast. It had Shenmue, Samba de Amigo, 2K Sports, Skies of Arcadia, Jet Set Radio, and countless other titles like the Sonic and Crazy Taxi series that truly made an impression...
The Xbox is a good machine and excellent value for money but i find it hard to accept an article from someone who doesn't even know how to spell "Xbox" correctly i.e who in hell calls it "XboX"?? am i too pedantic? as far as i am aware, not a single poster in N4G has ever called it XboX.
seriously, if you are supposed to know what an Xbox does then you should at least know how to spell Xbox. i mean the Xbox term has been out since almost the last millenniu...
although he tries to be impartial, this guy doesn't like apple or sony.
read all his articles in the last 2 months if you don't believe me:
Why Microsoft should acquire Sony's gaming division (then says "Developer consolidation is bad for the video game industry")
Apple extends contract with AT&T, forgets about you
Is Apple the only company that can do no wrong?
Why Apple's event next week won't 'rock' ...
why don't people just f-off with their little imagination, got-to-justify-my-paycheck articles on gow2 v resistance articles..
so sad.. sack people who write these useless articles because they are not games journalists..
no imagination, no new ideas, old news
rage, eerr no.. how can you create a lbp level when you don't have a hard drive to store it in.. the whole point of lbp was user created content else lbp without user content isn't lbp anymore..
I heard they are already working on Dead Space 12 for the playstation 6 and xbox 1800 .. the visuals are amazing but you will need to remortgage your house to buy the future 100800p 2000000hz 1billion to 1 contrast ratio 3D smell-ovision super-oled TV to play it in its full glory..
ps6 and xbox 1800 version differences can be clearly noticed using a tunnelling electron microsope..
