I wonder what they will do to convince xbox 360 owners to buy their game... are they giving PS3 owner enough time to forget about the game maybe too busy (playing Metal Gear) to care about all the extra features that the xbox 360 version is going to have?
There is no freaken way they would sit on their hands until microsoft give them the go for letting them do wherever they want with mods... what if microsoft says, "Never"... what? they spent all the money making the ...
this was kind of obvious... this service will be similar to the wii as far as the wii... game will be what it was...
There will be no difference between Buy Original Xbox game on disk and run it on the Xbox 360 or download it.
I think this service will probably open doors to 3rd party developers that would like to upgrade an existing game to have achivements, etc.. but would like to distribute it via digital distribution.
@rofldings - why when people want to prove that Japanese people love American products they have to mention Ipods and Mcdonnals? That's like me saying, "I eat mexican food." to say I have no problem with ilegal imigration... or that United state love communist countries because china supply the majority of all products imported.
Answer this.
If A product(made is Japan) is as good as B product(made in the US) which one do you think Japan will buy?
...
Danja... you are still not over the whole 1080P thing? COD4 not 1080P and is probably the best game on the PS3... Resistance.. not 1080P...
only a fraction of HDTVs are 1080P... 1080P overraded....
I rather have an player that plays all my movies on 1080i/1080p.. than to have one that do not play any of newer movies on any resolution...
"51gb" really... do you think paramount picture cares about having discs that can hold 51GB? what are they going to rel...
No need to spin it...
Japan is where Nintendo and Sony are kings.
US is where the xbox 360 is king.
The US represents 60%-70% of the game industry in terms of console installbase.
Japan prefer Japanese consoles.
I live in the US.
No spin required... Kudos to Sony that they did better than Nintendo. Microsoft xbox 360 is not sony's biggest worry in Japan... the wii is.
If Sony can maintain this in ...
@rofldings - mmm.. lets use your logic... (every 3rd party developer) should feel very stupid releasing their games on the PS3 in the US... talking about double standards.... doesn't the PS3 have a larger installbase in Japan? whath append to ratio convertion?
lol... PS2 games running on the PS3 are compatible to the PS3 rumble... but PS2 games are not compatible to the PS3 40GB... that make sense...
Also, because blu-ray is not even finished as far as specification is.... take a look at the first blu-ray players out there... not only that they do not have many of the features of the next generation but they can't be upgraded. (hardware can't be upgraded).
for those like Meus.... "HD DVD was a finalised specification from the get-go" can you argue against that? was HD DVD specifications finalized? what happens to all those people that purchased blu-ray players tha...
I hope companies are taking notes when it comes to what matters to them... which console sells more games?
No other console sells more games than the xbox 360... and take both extremes... a console with a large or larger installbase such as the wii sells less games than the xbox 360... and a console like the PS3.. duhh obviously sells less games than the xbox 360.
Are people still doubting Microsoft strategy about releasing the xbox 360 earlier than the PS3?
So, I guess Sony's price drop didn't do $h!t to convince americans to buy the PS3... Ratchet was not a system seller as many people thought it would be... now... what's left? Uncharted... will it move more consoles than Mass Effect? Will what effect will the next fall update have on console sales now that people will be able to download full games of xbox live? plus any other secret microsoft may have like IPTV? will microsoft drop the price of the xbox 360 before XMas?
It seems to be ...
with games like Forza, GT, PGR... why do this people even try making these games? They shouldof make a Formula 1 game since the xbox 360 have none.
I liked the Demo... I probably buy it... I like shotting aliens... but.. as an xbox 360 owner.. I probably boycot this game for them giving Unreal Tournoment 3 first... lol.. just kidding...
lol.. sure... did you ever heard about Planet Side? I payed for that Sony game for more than 1 year... $12.95... MMO are not free... will never be free.. unless there are lots of advertising... and microsoft transactions...
mixed reviews... conflicting reviews... I think this is one of those that we may have to try it ourselves.... bahhh... I don't rent games... so I will wait...
hehe.. so true...
What this guy does not know.. is that if he loses.. hey may have to pay legal fees... and microsoft lawyers have a big hour rate.
The concept behind this game is very dificult to implement... I kind of knew this was going to happen... which is why I didn't pre-ordered no I was planing on buying it.
I could say a thing or two about the xbox 360 being better and all.. but it seems that this game sucks and should be avoided for both platform... I feel for Sony.. they were counting on this game to be a AAA to help them during this XMas.
Yes! it's microsoft fault for not adding a face recognition software and scanning the credit card user first, then authenticate with the credit card issuer!
Idiots... How can microsoft prevent someone who have access to your wallet.. all your information.. from using your credit card?
Shame... this guy is a latino... it makes us look bad..
lol... Konami just don't want to say that the PS3 will be on last... there is no such thing about "No console will dominate this gen" someone will be on last... such as today... Sony's PS3 is on last... they just don't want to admit.. that their biggest title is on the losing console.
Komami you better start making your games multiplatform if you want to make any money... even on the wii is possible.
This is all blu-ray is... a prototype... Sony used their fanboys to test their new technology... now all those people who purchased those blu-ray drives are stucked with players that may very well not be able to play future movies... good job Sony.
This will be fun to watch...
do you know what it means to blu-ray if studios start adopting Hybrid Disc? blu-ray gets screwed... since people will buy the cheaper HD DVD drive... Hybrid idea hurt blu-ray more than it helps them. So, I'm ok with this solution... ;)
