And how many of those 2 million are going to be disappointed over spending $60 on a clear cut expansion pack? Just because you add a 6 hour campaign with a map pack and repetition mode doesn't mean it's a full game. Firefight doesn't even have a good selection of vehicles or weapons, and AI is as good as AI gets. "Stop having a boring Firefight, stop having a boring life" - Vince. Thank GOD I rented this overhyped episode. Bungie could have done so much more to make this game better...
1. Gears 2 - Campaign was run of the mill, and online is basically whoever can spawn camp better with shotguns. Oh man tons-o-fun! (Gears 1=WAY Better)
2. Fable 2 - This one deserved an 7.5 or an 8/10, not a 9. It was kind of short to where my buddy finished it on release day. The storyline was okay, but it wasn't amazing. The gameplay was alright. It definitely didn't warrant the $70 I spent on the C.E. It's sad when I logged in more time enjoying myself in the Pub Games than Fa...
The only people disappointed were those who weren't following the game, so all the "realistic" changes hit them like a ton of bricks. It was a really great game, but for some reason this generation has bred a bunch of people who just think it's cool to rip on everything.
What especially doesn't make sense, is how the author says "Awesome storyline, repetitive missions..." In essence, that's what GTA is. "Go kill this guy, go escort this person, hey go def...
As long as it stayed in single player :)
Fact of the matter is, Natal will only be successful with support from devs. The Eyetoy, The PSCam, the XBL Vision cam, the Wiimote, all of these share one thing in common: Motion controllers with little to none developer support. Unless Natal and the new Playstation controls can get legitimate AAA titles and the dev support needed, neither will be relevant in the future. For our sake, I hope they do.
I'm not as impressed by Natal as some, as it isn't revolutionary, just a harmon...
When was Gears and Fallout get canceled? lol
You'd think they would have been smart enough to get rid of it. I'll take every other "noob perk" over Martyrdom any day.
Nope. At one point they were hundreds of dollars as well, or available in a $275 Sony Playstation 2, while the discs themselves were $30 a pop. Now they are selling for $50, and you can find DVD discs for $10. Same will happen in time with Blu-Ray.
Good try Microsoft owned companies. Good try.
Yeah, I've found that as far as multiplatform games go, the Ps3 version usually ends up better quality. Not to mention of course the extra bonuses (Blu-Ray's scratch resistance discs, and if your ps3 somehow accidentally tips over... Oh wait everything is safe :D).
GTA4 DLC is said to be delayed, I really don't think it will be here by 2008. Not sure why that vid creator thinks it will when every article is pointing towards 2009. Especially when you consider the Fall 2008 release date was back when GTA4 was set to be released in Oct 2007. I would be really pissed off if Microsoft rushed an unfinished GTA4 DLC to be released just for money. If they do, I will truly hate them more than I do :( Which is ironic because I love their products lol.

Your right, its not. This was supposed to be a secret special invite closed Beta going on right now, but apparently Sony messed up on the IG list of special invites, and now random people were invited to the private when their invitations were supposed to held off until much much later waves.
At this time in the Private Beta, it was supposed to be merely Insomniacs, the Infected from Myresistance.net, and Friends+Family. This was not meant to be some big hoorah for anyone besides...
So do you feel pretty internet famous now Overrated? It was explicitly said not to leak details.
And Khaqan, Gen isn't spreading false rumors. This is not an Open Beta. The Open Beta begins next month. This is a very private invite only Beta. Sony messed up and sent invites to a lot of the wrong people, otherwise this was going to be a secret. So much for that now.
So no, the open beta has not started yet. Stop trying to be Mr Information plz.
Until we see Halo or Gears on the playstation 3, I'm going to have to disagree with this article. Games like Grand Theft Auto had so much potential, so many of these Ps3 exclusives have so much potential, but once they go multiplatform that potential is now lost. They cannot be specifically engineered for the power of the Playstation 3 as they must now be able to be run on the 360.
What I'm saying is, exclusive franchises like Grand Theft Auto have been dwarfed in what they can n...
LMAO man I totally bit the bait here. I was so excited telling everyone... then I read the article :$
What bullshit. When is MS going to stop screwing up Ps3 exclusives? Don't get me wrong, I love both of my consoles, but that doesn't mean I have to deny the facts: The Ps3 is capable of doing so much more, but exclusive games going multiplatform only hold back the power of the ps3.
"Oh but with more money for funding you can make it better!!!" Well call me old fashioned, but I don't understand how you can make a game better when it now must be dumbed down to fit on an 8...
This is exciting! I was one of the first people to jump on it I guess, the download only took me LESS THAN A MINUTE! Ha now I hear people are going at ungodly speeds though :D
Ah so the 360 version freezes too huh? This doesn't surprise me as at all, as freezing is not a console issue but a bug in the game lol. But the RROD's kind of surprise me, but I guess not. I have a newer model and have had my 360 on for 9 hour play sessions with no problems. Im sure thats not the case with the older models though.
Your joking right?
Wow. You need to learn a little about GTA then. GTA4 was in production for 4 years before release, 2004-2008. It was then even delayed so they could perfect things that they felt were not up to their standard. This was in no way rushed to get quick money Lol.
I've been a GTA fan ever since GTA3 captured me and never let go back 7 years ago. I had been waiting for GTA4 for 2 and a half years, with a preorder already a year old.
Needless to say, I've played through 3 times already, the first time rushing through for the 100% in the first week (and making it), the second time playing at a relaxed pace, and the third time playing on my 360 racking up achievement points.
Every true GTA fan that I know is doing the same. The on...
How is he a "jealous hater" when it's simply regurgitating what 360 fanboys have been saying since Day 1 regarding the PS3?
Does that make all 360 fanboys jealous haters?
