"Philly Dad Kills 17-Month Old Daughter Over Xbox 360" sad indeed. would it be ok if it would be over a wii? What different does it make if it was a 360? I think the console brand it irrelevant since it's wrong regarless.
nice try big_tim; as predicted it didn't take long before some fanboy try to turn this arround. And you are wrong, Gears is not the only game with great ratings. you are just too blind to see it.
All the people saying negative things about the 360 in japan are right. No one can deny that the PS3 and the wii have a better chance in Japan than the 360. On the other hand the 360 is doing a lot better than the original XBox. No game for the original xbox got anywhere near what this game is. This game prove to Japanese developers that if they make an RPG game it will sell well in japan; which means more developer will make more RPG games. will it sell better than Final Fantasy or Metal Gea...
@tk, you sound like a smart guy and who knows you may even be a programmer. Have you ever try making a game for linux/windows using any of these languages? "C++, Ruby, Python, C, C++, Java, Pascal, Basic etc etc etc)" and OpenGL? I have. and if you also did you would know how dificult it is to do so, almost forcing you to spend thousands in game engines and software to create the game assets if you want to come up with an ok game. Even to ready the video card you have to write hundr...
"u're makin arcade games u dumb f*ck, u need 2 be an educated f*ck 2 make a game that is actuelly worth usin time on makin, this is like a drawin tool for kids, who gives a damn thing about what ms do, they'll prolly charge ur asss when they see u're start devolpin something good or just simple and plain take it, copyright?? copyright what? u have no rights when u're usin their tools,their console and with their premission.. see how easy it is 2 make them xbox fools fall for something (l...
"99.99 + 59.99?" can you elaborate more on this? Here is how it works. You don't pay to get the XNA express. You pay 99.99 a year to join the Creators Club; it allows you to distribute your projects with others. If you want to make games for the PC then you don't have to worry about this. I don't understand why Sony fanboys feel the need to try to critizise something that has nothing to do with them? Obviously this is aimed to those that are interested in making their own stuff. I p...
How ignorant can people be? I am a software developer (MCSD) to be exact. I work as a lead developer making a little over $120,000 a year for a company called component arts http://www.componentart.com... . We develop controls for web and windows applications. I have experience using OpenGL and DirectX (since version 5) . I program games for fun (don't get pay for it) I do understand the development process. How about...
haha! Ever heard of Copyright? If you have a good story or game concept you should copyright it. Don't twisting this into something negative, since your belove console does not and will not anything close to this. Anyways what do you suggest for those that want to make their games and do not have the money to pay for a PS3 SDK nor have $20,000,000 to make a game and hope that Sony will let them publish their game? Trust me; this is the best or only chance most of us have to have our game run ...
I think the 50 MB is forcing developers to do their homework on coding efficiently. This game looks have better graphics than others taking more space. The 50MB is a restriction not a limitation. Microsoft can always increase the space allowed. I think developers are learning new techniques which in term will benefit the gamers. Smaller files means less loading, etc.
If this restriction would not be there than they wouldn't be using "procedural texture".
Why would they...
If it beat the most wanted console (wii) AAA game; than that tells you something about blue dragon.
I looking forward getting hooked with a nice MMO... this may be it.
"Are people renting more than buying 360 games, that would not be a good sign?" the answer is No. XBox 360 attach rate is highter than most if not all consoles; so ... uhhh... no. People are without question buying the games. The attach rate for the games is 5 per console http://www.gamasutra.com/ph... Nice try though... For once Sony fanboys should stop trying to twist things arround.
So there are 20 times more XBox 360 than PS2? If what you saying is 100% accurate than the PS2 should have at least 9/10 games listed on the Most Popular Games Cross-Platform.
I think this is good news since it show Sony is trying to fix their issues. The other good news is that Sony fanboys can no longer call the XBox 360 XBug since Sony already broke the record when it comes to the number of updates or bugs they are fixing considering the fact the the PS3 is being out in less than 3 weeks? How many updates is that? Kudos for Sony on this; at least be happy bugs can be fixed via updates like all next gen consoles. If you had a bug in your PS2 or before that you wa...
All "Most Popular Games Cross-Platform" are 360 titles. Developers should take note about this.
well said alex; sometimes it's needed to correct the ones always trying to mislead others. Also "neck and neck with Gears of War" means that it had the same rating though close Resistance match or beat Gears score.
I think Sony fans are insulting, Sony can do anything their want with their fanbase and they will still line up to buy their product.
Quality over quantity. Something you Sony fanboys don't seem to appreciate. I rather have a $0.25 candy in my pockets than a truck full of s$h!t. If PS2 games look better on the PS2 than on the PS3 than why did sony bothered adding BC? Everyone has a PS2 anyways.
You are right about # of games. But, what do you call someone that pays $600(P3) to play a game instead of $99(PS2) specially when the game looks better on the cheaper console? It sad that if I have a PS3 and a PS2 and I want to play a PS2 game I would chose the P2 because it plays better there. I guess this is one of those things (Similar to Sony online service) Quatity over quantity or quality over free.
Good job videl! You have become fastest-brainded next-gen fanboy ever!
