and gears launches in japan today i believe, or yesterday
you know i never thought about it but sampling from work i can believe that number. of the 10 people here at work that have a 360 only 2 of us had an xbox
maybe where you are but here the gamestop by my house has had the same ps3s in stock for 2 weeks. they said they have sold 2 since christmas but still sell out of wiis and hd-dvd drive for the 360 the day they come in.
wether the cut scenes are cgi or being rendered with the game engine doesn't matter, it is still watching scenes not actual game play. the point being that if it is truely 50gig then the majority of that is just cut scene and not space for in game (actually playing not watching cut scenes) graphics, levels etc.. if GOW fits on one disc and they have to use 50gig for mgs 4 then there is about 40-45gigs of something other than playing the game, ie cut scenes, bad coding, or they could be making...
is mgs 4 is 50gig then it is a disc with 45gig of CGI cutscenes. after all the info we know about i am beginning to wonder if it is a game or a movie.
can't wait for this game, i will be building a new machine this year so i can run this game in all of its possible glory.
i can't believe people complain this much because they are having trouble cheating/abusing the system.
are you sure everyone isn't skeptical about this game because of how bad blazing angels was? BTW yes i am waiting until i get to play a demo for this game because it does look dumb but has potential there are alot of cool units to fly and control.
wow, these guys are way out there. for example lets say they are right and the ps3 will sell 121 million units by 2012. that means sony would have to produce and sell 22million ps3s a year. just from a marketing and production stand point seems way out there considering the componants in the ps3. granted as the console ages the componants become cheaper and manufacturing becomes more efficent but that is still one heck of a tall order for a console that costs $600. now selling 121 million ps2...
actually it is working, that actually makes me want to buy a ps3, girl included of coarse.
let me be the first to say i hope this is true. KI on the 360 would ROCK.
analyst for the game industry have to be the biggest bunch of morons outside of local news weather forcasters. 3rd party publishers should run not walk as fast as possible from the wii. the wii is being marketed tword non-gamers, so when these people and the install base of the wii that are traditionally non-gamers will buy games when they get the system, and then that is about it. for example if ubisoft releases and awsome game on the 360 most 360 owners will run out and buy it, the wii howe...
although it sucks we have to wait 3 more months i would rather wait the 3 months and get a more polished less buggy game than have it pushed out the door as is because of some marketing date (you listening EA i am looking at you).
of coarse we will be playing halo3 beta in march so it might be good it was pushed back.
hmm, interesting. kinda off topic there are 6 titles for the 360 but only 3 for the ps3. we know lost planet is 360 only (they are going to make a killing with that game it is awsome) but what are the other 2 that are 360 only?
yeah it is sad to see this because it doesn't inspire them to do anything. all games have bugs but EA never fixes them and the bugs in the madden games are so glaring obvious i refuse to believe that they were caught by testers, EA is on a tight schedule with the madden games they just always choose to release it as is because it will sell without any competition.
if you don't want people to flame your article maybe you shouldn't title it in a way that begs for flaming.
you need to look in the mirror. a GAMER is someone who likes playing games and not love everything just because it has sony, nintnedo, ms etc... written on the outside. "because you're obviously not a sony fan" you know you can like many sony games without being a fan but only a nieve person believes EVERYTHING they do is golden. remember your opinion is just as worthless as you believe someone else's is.
and just for the record i didn't buy a wii because i am not 12....
i got a zune for xmas yesterday it is awsome. MS needed more marketing to show off some features i didn't even know until i played with (building playlists on the device) and its integration into the 360 is flawless.
- on topic
i played the demo at gamestop and was very unimpressed. i left wondering what all the hype was about because the game got boring fast and the visuals were nothing to write home about. hopefully they polish those up a bit in the final release and ad...
i would have paid and extra $5-$10 if my zune had come pre-loaded with some good porn.
the zune rocks. it is perfect for me also but remember they are doing with songs from the market place, mp3s you have all transfer fine and the other person can listen as much as they like.
