So you guys actually believe 99 to 99.9% of these guys are helping her just on the infinitely improbable chance that she might show them her Woo-Hah? COME ON! There is NO WAY that 0.1 to 1% of these guys are doing it for any other reason than the possibility of climbing on her! Quit inflating the numbers! lol

Still waiting for the Toy Story graphics they promised in the ps2 days! And the uncharted series running 1280x720@30fps isn't exactly the dual 1920x1080@120fps they promised is it? Sony doesn't have any credibility when it comes to these "promises".

When someone says "zombies" in reference to games, movies etc it invokes a picture in my head.

There is the main characters, survivors, they are few in number, isolated, always on the run, have no hope for rescue, scavenge for whatever resources they can find and take shelter wherever and whenever they can.

Then there is the zombies, they are mindless, unthinking and full of bloodlust, large in number, difficult to "kill" and they ar...

battlefield 3 minimum requirements:

Hey, they gotta say something so that people will buy a $60 crysis on console instead of just picking up a 2007 pc copy out of the cheap bin for 5.99 at walmart! hahahaha

I would say that the entire RTS genre isn't represented on console. Actually, now that I think about it, pretty much any game with any amount of complexity isn't on console. Civilization, sim games, tycoon games etc

Don't understand your block... these days the console version is about the same as the pc version set on it's lowest settings. Even the cheapest of pc's outperform consoles now and a midrange pc blows them away. How can you not feel the same way when you know that virtually everybody playing the pc version is getting a better experience? Pretty much everybody that comments on N4G would be considered a hardcore gamer that probably logs HUNDREDS of hours gaming every year but som...

I buy a car knowing that I can sell the car down the road and buy a new car. The car company doesn't get any money if I sell my car but they do get money when I buy a new car with the money I got from selling my old car. There are many people who only buy used cars and the car companies never get any money from them either but that is part of the ecosystem. Nobody gets grief about not supporting the car manufacturers when they buy a used car.

Hell YES I'll buy it! I hate the playstation controller, don't play much on it simply because the controller just doesn't agree with me.

Could be on the 360 AND the 720?

dumbest argument in the history of gaming is that the pc is "too expensive". Seriously, anybody who uses the term 'gamer' to describe themselves probably puts 10 hours a week into gaming if not more. To put that into perspective, imagine doing a 10 hour gaming session every single day for TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY DAYS STRAIGHT! That's how much gaming we are talking about in a five year period.

cost: ps3 $600, 360 $400, two pc builds $1500
So, for ...

1. That is what a CLV (constant linear velocity) drive does, it reads data at a constant rate. The data on the disc is in a continuous line that spirals out from the middle. But in order to read the data from the center of the disc at the same rate as at the edge, you have to spin the disc faster than when reading data from the edge. Imagine a line of data that goes all the way around the outer edge of a disc. If you took the same length line and wrapped it around near the middle of the d...

@pedo
The BD drive in the PS3 is a CLV drive. The disc spins faster or slower based on where the data is being read from. Physically slowing and speeding the angular velocity of the disc to read data from different sectors is what takes the biggest bites out of the read speeds of a BD. Besides, what makes you think that a multiplat or even an exclusive that uses 8.5 gigs or less of data is on a 25 GB BD? More likely it is on a DVD or a BD9 to save money on printing discs and do yo...

Halo is an important franchise but halo 3 is the best selling game on 360 with about 11 million but there are now about 55 million 360's out there so that still leaves 80% if 360 owners, the vast majority, who have no interest in the franchise.

Even running at the same low resolution of 1152x651 with the same geometric models and the same textures as the consoles, the pc still looks significantly better and I guarantee the pc is running that at a crazy framerate vs 30fps on consoles.

Breaking news: when movies brag about a four star rating it's because the reviewer is rating on a four star scale like Ebert, Sun, Daily, etc etc. A four star movie = 100% not 80%
