I think the reason its causing such a stir is because the media quickly praised Microsoft's offering as something like a new era in gaming experience, but the thing is Sony came up with a similar device before. Microsoft's device approaches the concept differently of course.
This reminds me of how Apple got all the praise for their chiclet Macbook keyboards, and when Sony released a new Vaio with the chiclet style, people bashed Sony for it. Thing is Sony released a thin busi...
Agreed. Sony did it nicely by demoing their product for implementation in games and drawing, as well as show the precision it has. Microsoft's demo was really neat but the whole wallpaper elephant creation they had to me felt gimmicky. I'd rather pull out my wacom and sketch some in photoshop. They should've really demo'd Milo live on-stage. That would've been somethin!
Here we go again a bunch of people complaining about no dual analog sticks. Since when did they say this was the PSP2 ? And some of you want it with GPS, camera, and touch screen for $250?
Funny that his bio says
"I'm a Gran Turismo fanboy but I hate fanboys who refuse to accept Forza Motorsport as an equal. Same goes Killzone 2, Halo 3 sucks sorry. The Wii sucks but I have fun with it. It's a new way to play especially when half the games this gen just don't impress me.
Other than that, I'm pure controversy."
...yet he doesn't seem to accept GT equally. Enough with the PD release Prologue because they were scared of Forza voodoo. ...
So I looked at the videos again and I still think the Sony motion controllers look dorky, but having used Wacom devices I can't help but wonder how awesome it may be to draw/sculpt art in 3D considering they showed the precision that was there with their demo.
Now the Natal certainly looks impressive but deep down I think we'd still be using the 360 controller in conjunction with the Natal. I just don't see how we'd want to "walk forward" to advance in a game swing our...
LMAO as always he's such a funny character. The "Holy S#it" was just so fitting when the copter came. >=D
Yea it is looking good..
After playing FF online I was really hoping they'd have another one and here it is! Though the concept of how and the time it took for people to get their class armor sets blew my mind. Sorta a reason I jumped ship to WoW, but there's just so much more charm, beauty, and complexity to FF online over WoW. Only things I hated about the game was that nasty PlayOnline service they used and accounts were deleted if inactive for more than 3 months. What'...
they still use those old school trees

But hey! They sure add a more life-like colorful looking environment.
Why fix what's not broken? If it works it works.
edit: not to mean bad but I really like those old school trees they use. They just appear better imo compared to that 3D tree creation thing they have in many games nowadays.....
what's with all the "new" users trolling today? Their comments are all anti-Sony and SDF that. So what if Kojima & Konami is making MGS for the 360, shouldn't you be happy you get to play a Metal Gear game? I recall how many didn't want Metal Gear on their system because they didn't want to watch the movie that is MGS4. Now it's suddenly megaton?
I guess it's alright because MGSR is going to be an action game huh? Double standard much?
or like how some developers equate forward & reverse of the same track as TWO. Amirite!? =D
the HD pictures look so much better. shame not a lot of details on the cars though. I think Shift looks better.
@Spoony:
For parts of your post I agree and for some others I don't. The price drops of the PS3 point out to desperation, but at the same time Sony took out some features to make the system more affordable. I think months after launch they realized consumers aren't going to lose an arm and leg for a console. In other words, by taking out features they gave themselves an incentive to drop the price.
As you say Microsoft had an incentive to drop the price of their ...
Makes me think of the Sony Mylo... except with controller buttons instead of a keyboard.
hehe true that. good medium to store things as backup, but in 5 years we'd probably have fast enough speeds across country to d/l complete games in digital form. Why not anyways? Considering a couple months ago, 1 tb harddrives were expensive but nowadays they're pretty affordable, and there are 1.5 tb out there at Fry's and I think 2.0s too.
because the "1.6 TB DVD" of the title and a "1.6Tb dvd sized disk" using nanotechnology to me sounds like two totally different things.

Yea we haven't really gotten any info. I hope it's a decent change like Forza 1->2. What I really want is in-c0ckpit view and maybe some more tracks. Loved the customization options in F2 and the custom paint jobs, though it'd be nice if they give us more tools rather than using shapes. I wonder what crazy designs the Japanese players will make for the auction when F3 hits. I remember bidding on an itasha ferrari only to have to go back in the game for several more ...
Well he'll be getting disagrees if he makes a comment like this:
"I just seen this on the site. Isn't this in one of the other teaser posts? I don't even read them all there is so many coming in."
Why bother commenting if you don't even read them all. Why this one?
And add to that he has to be a liar for saying this:
"I actually had 7 bubbles and I posted screenshots of games and in few hours was down to 3. Some of the people...
New user with 6 bubbles already!? With a name like Ylod and saying U2 isn't a graphical leap from U1, or saying U1 had small linear paths? You obviously haven't played U1 sir and you are obviously a troll.
Wow if someone is that incompetent with their job you'd think they'd have been written up enough times to get canned by now.
I thought MGS Rising was claimed by the media to be 360 exclusive. Shouldn't the article be rewritten to "Since when was Metal Gear Rising a 360 exclusive?"
Heck I recalled seeing more articles on the possibility of MGSR being 360 exclusive than I did articles saying it's exclusive to the PS platform.
