I know Sony fanboys love articles like this since it makes the 360 seem like a piece of crap. I don't have a valid question.
"If Microsoft releases a F@H client for the 360, they could be facing a financial and public relations nightmare. The F@H client uses 100% of the CPU power, and if possible, 100% of the GPU power of the device while running. This generates tremendous amounts of heat, which places components under high stresses. It's a worst case scenario for hardware...
"PS3 on the other hand relies on OpenGL and CG (well documented, very efficient, very powerful), so developers on that platform have a lot of benefits." I will not disagree that OpenGL is a very powerful API... but compared to DirectX... it's not more documented, more efficient nor more powerful. Why do you think most games if not all use DirectX? Name a recent game for the PC that uses only OpenGL?
Here is a little test.
Do a google search.
Open...
Out of all these new features.. the one I really like is the [RSS Channel]... I hope it's a good RSS reader. Though one can always visit google.com with the PS3 browser... but an integrated one is always nice to have.
I agree...
The only use I can see for this; is frequent back of very large databases. Most database systems do differential backups(only need data gets safe)... i.e. So a 1TB database does not get backup fully... but only the data since the last backup... so you wouldn't need such big disk anyways... It's also cheaper to get HDD using Raid in case one fail... do you know how many gigs you can buy with $2,000? Then again to each its own.
@WilliamRLBaker, wow... When both videos are put together... sad to say... it does tell you something about blindly believing what PR agents have to say.
I'm still on my lauch xbox 360 unlike the PS3 which I'm on my 5th and it keep overheating and melting down. J/K. I never owned a PS3... but that's all it takes for someone to spread rumors. First of all, if the 360 dies and you don't have an extended warranty (2 years like $60) the 360 comes with a 1 year warranty... and you don't have to pay not even shipping. Once microsoft fixes the console, it automatically gives you another year warranty in case it breaks again... So, NO to the fool that...
I think it's due to the PS3 installbase. It's smart for Kojima to wait until the PS3 has a large enough installbase in order to make all the money they invested back... I wouldn't doubt that the same happens to Final Fantasy XIII. It sucks though... This game or Final fantasy will be the reason why I'll purchase a PS3. Now I have to wait... errrr... a year!? Hopefully the PS3 get's at least 2 price drops before then.
Actually they did think about it. And they are working on it. Microsoft is playing safe. It's better to lock these accounts... then not to and then get sued. It seems like there are some legacy code or logistics that dont fit in with some of these accounts. So, they desided to leave them out and fix later. At least they are working on it. That's the problem with integrating two already existing independant applications.
If it's true what Sony fans have to say about EA, they have nothing to worry about. No one care or like EA anyways. Correct? Their games have no influence in the market and it does not matter if what EA has today about the PS3... As matter of fact it does not even matter if EA does not support the PS3 with any of their games. So, what's the point of this article and why are you making such of a big deal about EA saying this? It's EA... who cares!!! Right!?
Apples and Oranges at its best. This is in no shape or form a bash against Home. but let's see how I put it without insulting anyone.
Why would I hate to play resistance when you have pacman? Or why would I want to play Forza 2 when the graphics in Gears of wars are so great? I mean come on... I prefer a basketball gameplay than halo 3... WFT!? Home is completely unrelated to Halo3. Home is not even a game.
Ofcourse I know what the word beta means.. I use it all the time during the development cycle of any of the programs I write.
Beta - Traditionally, a step in the software development process where completed software is tested by "real-life" users to find bugs or design issues that may have been overlooked in the formal testing.
@Kyur4ThePain, why you ask?
Ok, I will make it simple for you guys the get the point I was trying to make.
"a low end pc game and we all know it,"??? I mean.. One thing is need some extra work on the graphic department... but low end PC? Sounds like a fanboy comment to me... I think you have too many bubbles.. what do you think guys.. do you agree?
Let me guess your friend was invited for a public beta? for what console? cause I hope you are smart enough to assume I am not talking about PC games.. right? I am talking about consoles.
Oo.... This will make lots of Sony fans angry.
I would agree without before yesterday about EA being lazzy... but I am in love with EA because it did a great job in C&C3. I'm in love with that game! Anyways... GUys you have to take the good and bad... Not every developer will worship the PS3 like Lair and resistance developers. Developers have preferences what can you do. Some will like the 360 others will like the PS3. Also, I don't understand why as soon as a developer does not d...
Is this a new thing now? Betas? You see microsoft what you started!? Now Sony has to do the Beta thing too. Now releasing beta test games will be the new thing.
Sony fanboys you are the one to be blame for any XBox fan flaming your articles... I means, why mentions xbox live? Why can both services coo-exist.. specially since they are both in two seperate consoles.. both consoles will offer a great service.. enjoy the one you choose.
@Atrane07, if you read my article I was making the same point you were making. And I agree.. xbox live does not need to be mentioned. I think they are both great and unique in their own ways.
"If you make the developers happy and provide a good medium for user access, Home will kick the crap out of XBL" ofcourse you are asuming that "developers [arent] happy [with the XBox live] and [that it does not] provide a good medium for user access. Ofcourse... if you asumptions are correct then... all the xbox live arcade games, demos, and movies on xbox live marketplace are there because developers and studios love losing money; then yes... PSN will PSN will render XBox liv...
I agree Approved!
Wow! That's all it takes from people to stop accusing UBI of being lazy and bad developers. Sony fans love UBI again!
