The original NES was not a casual system. In fact, except for the hand-helds, none of nintendo's systems were casual until the Wii. What are you talking about? Also, the Wii is not doing hardcore gamers any favors. Are the people "playing" Wii Fit, Wii Sports and Cooking Mama going to make the move to Gears of War or MGS4 one of these days? No, they won't. The housewives playing Wii Fit will never move to hardcore games. The Wii and the PS360 are aimed at completely different market...
This news bothers me. The reason it bothers me is because I own a 360, and I want to see good games coming to the 360, not bad games. I was hoping Microsoft would show off some new and exciting games at E3, not another bright pink and purple candyland shooter. So this news is disappointing. Oh well.
If this rumor is true, I hope they improve the graphics, the story, the color scheme, the art design, the voice acting, the mood, the grunt's voices, the level design, the on-line match-making, the music, and the weapons. They should keep the controlls the same as Halo 3 though.
Xbox live was down for two weeks right after Christmas last year. These kind of on-line glitches happen on every console. Sony'll fix it in a couple of days. Who cares?
Dude, did you really just put Too Human in your list of good 360 exclusives? Jesus. Too Human has THE WORST graphics I have ever seen for a next-gen game. THE WORST. Too Human is garbage and will be a massive, massive flop. It took every ounce of energy I had to stop myself from throwing up when I saw the Too Human gameplay videos, because they are so horrifically, nightmarishly ugly. Too Human will be one of the worst games ever made, a million times worse than Vampire Rain. Too Human is eve...
Why in the hell do you people want the 360 to fail? Competition is GOOD. Competition from the 360 is what is pushing Sony to make the PS3 better with Home, in game XMB, and all around better games. If the 360 gets blown out of the water, then Sony won't have to push themselves anymore and we'll end up with mediocre products. Do yourselves a favor sony fanboys: if you can afford it, buy a 360. You'll get some great exclusives, better multi-plat games, better textures in every single game, and ...
Alan Wake, Mass Effect 2, etc.
EDIT: I forgot about all the JRPGs coming to the 360 this year and next. Star Ocean anyone? The 360 is the RPG console.
Gamer A: "Look! I passed Uncharted on the hardest mode!!!!!"
Gamer B: "Holy Jesus, I'm impressed!!!!!!!! Look at the size of that trophy!!!!!!!!"
I loved Resistance 1 more than my first born child, but the videos I've seen of Resistance 2 are honestly not very impressive. So far, the game looks exactly like Resistance 1, maybe worse. They have a lot of time left, so hopefully the graphics will be improved by the time it releases. I sure hope they are.
I think that speech is the "Saint Crispin's Day" speech. Anyhow, that commercial is terrible. I hate it. How does a speech about a band of brothers apply to GT5P? I really wish Sony would keep their commercials simple. When they get too crazy it just turns people off. Like that messed up crying baby commercial they had when the PS3 launched. WTF?
Cliffy and pals didn't write this. They hired some hack professional writer to do it.
I told silicon knights to make Eternal Darkness 2, but did they listen? No, they didn't. This game could kill silicon knights forever.
All melee combat is done with the right analog stick, and ONLY the right analog stick. ALL MELEE COMBAT=RIGHT STICK.
Its almost impossible for a story to be emotinally affecting when the main characters are the same old cookie cutter, generic, space marine BS that we've seen a thousand times in a thousand different games. At this point, the story couldn't possibly be emotionally affecting unless they introduced an entirely new set of characters. Even if marcus and cole and all those guys end up shooting themselves I wouldn't care because they're so shallow and one dimensional. Just forget the story and impr...
I am getting sick and tired of all these 10 hour long western RPGs like Fable, Mass Effect and Too Human. Except for Oblivion, it seems like every western RPG is super short. RPGs are supposed to be LONG, they aren't supposed to be the same length as a shooter. Damn it!
That whole "beating MGS4 in 5 hours" thing is BS. There are people who can run through Portal in a half hour, but it takes most people 3. There are people who can beat Metroid Prime in 4 hours and it took me 40. People play through a game a million times and become so good that they can pass it insanely fast. It doesn't mean anything. Any sort of normal person with a life CANNOT pass MGS4 in 5 hours.
The only one of these I agree with is the PSN store's font being too small. Its WAY too small. Everything else isn't a problem for me at all.
"break dancing"---LOL.
Thats just an excuse that the developers use because the 360 and the PS3 can't handle putting in a lot of detail close-up, and having a good draw distance at the same time. The consoles can't do both, so most developers put in less detail up close so they can have a good draw distance. This looks more realistic. Cliffy B and co put in a ton of detail, but sacrifice draw distance. Its just a matter of opinion which is the better choice. I think less detail but better draw distance is the best ...
Man, there are A LOT of stupid videogame web-sites run by chimps out there.
