This is just as criminal to the consumer as hacking is to the corporations.

Pot meet kettle.

Kevin Butler just didn't do it for Sony -- Yeah, sure, some people found him amusing but it's old now. He's become the Dane Cook of gaming. His welcome wore out and he's just hanging around for a paycheck.

Move failed because Sony is out of touch with the consumers. They wanted a happy medium and didn't want to show us all their cards (meaning what they will do for future consoles, should there be any. Face it, Sony isn't exactly the name it once w...

Sony has mastered the art of the worthless update. They've perfected the security update on the Ps3 and now it seems they've moved on to the PSP.

When's the last time Sony gave you anything worth a damn in a firmware update? I can't remember.

Give me Digital any day.

1. Games, cd's, dvd's, vhs tapes and blu-rays all look like absolute trash sitting in someone's living room. Some people have so many that they have bookshelves full of them -- Taking up whole walls in the process. It's so absurd and tacky. These people have emotional issues and are likely to not let go of things easily. They can also develop hording mentalities this way too.

What's even more sad about number 1 ...

Anyone making minimum wage, and there are a slew of you, that buy video games need to reconfigure their lives. It's like smokers who make 7 bucks an hour bitching that they don't have enough money to eat on.

I didn't play 1 online game of Killzone 2, so 8 is plenty for me because I see history repeating itself here.

So what was it, number 9? Probably right at 10, though. The 1st one sold like weak sauce. Some 1.6 million in total. Big blockbuster. I remember hearing people talk about how it was going to be the Mario for Sony and all that. Turns out it's just a niche game with a hardcore core base and not much else.

46 million Ps3's sold and the game couldn't even sell 5 million. That's pretty shocking when you put it into perspective. Just what games do idiot game...

Mario was not his apartment landlord -- He was the owner of the warehouse the developers were working out of. He stormed in, supposedly, and demanded they pay 3 months back rent -- When he left the building, with only the promise of pay, the development team behind Donkey Kong renamed Jump-man Mario and then made the spin off game "Mario Bro's".

That is the real story.

Boy, more rastlin' games. Just what the world needs, other than 100 more fps being produced a year with online deathmatches!

Pathetic.

I'm willing to bet more people would rather get gonorrhea than this game.

So in 2 years the series never evolved? Seems like it. I'll be skipping this one on principle. Well, principle and the fact that it's another ho-hum FPS with nothing to offer over any other mindless fps out there.

I do have to say, having booted KZ 2 up just last night after having someone tell me how great it was for a month now -- I have to say it really does look incredible. Very movie like. I had not played it until last night to be honest. It still played l...

In the offset I said this game would sale 75,000 units its first week on market and drop from there. That might've been foolish unless EA only printed 100,000 units to begin with. It'll be interesting to see just how "in demand" this game really is on the Ps3.

45 million, maybe 47 million, Ps3 owners out there would lead me to believe most of them have it on PC or played it on the xbox 360 already. If not there seems to be a 10 million + user market for t...

And, like I said all along, George will win -- Sony will lose, as they always do in court.

Bleemcast anyone?
Dualshock anyone?
Optic Disc Drive case anyone?

This will be no different. George has a great case here and and argument of re-enabling features once in the system is a home run for the defense.

Sony will lose and lose big. I just wonder how Sony will like that egg served when it gets tossed all over their face.

What I don't get is this, if you're a "true" gamer, (heheheheaaahaha), you obviously wouldn't steal games or pirate them right? I mean, "true" "gamers" don't need to steal games cause you all care about the industry so much. Right?

Ok, so all these people stealing games must not be "true" "gamers" and thus they'd never buy the game anyways. Why are you people crying again? Do you think any one of the ga...

Ummmmmm Crystalis. Oh, wait, never mind they'd just **** it up as usual.

After being outsold by 88% I'm pretty sure the little engine that could wouldn't even be able to carry Sony's burden.

Realist: (definition) When there are more than two items written on a piece of paper it becomes a real-list. *realist*

Anyone who steals a game is sending a message to the developers that their game isn't good enough to buy at full retail price.

Make better games or suffer the wrath of the hack! And let's be honest here, how many games are really worth buying? Seriously. Hundreds are released every year it seems and only 3 to 7 are must own games or games people play in abundance. That doesn't seem like a good ratio and it also doesn't seem like good business.

Wal-mart? I think not. I haven't been into a department store, outlet store, such as that in years. Wal-mart is one of the biggest evils in America right now -- Undercutting many business and sending many small ones out of business all together.

They are working on a unified market and that, to me, is communistic. I wouldn't shop at Wal-mart if someone gave me a life time membership to Sams Club.

What didn't help is those "gamers" he was reaching out to on them message boards. Weak minded people take things very differently than sound minded people.

A dropped tray full of glass wouldn't affect me.

A dropped tray full of glass might send a man who spent 18 years in prison over the edge.

People, everybody, think very differently and their actions are usually carried out on impulse. We do not know what impulses the n...
