THe highest rank I ever got in Halo 2 was a 35 without getting host. At that point every match someone was cheating. Whether you won or not was determined by if the cheater was on your team or not. Almost all people over level 43 in Halo 2 cheated.
The highest rank I ever got when bridging for host was level 41 in Team Slayer. After that I couldn't even find a match anymore. What people would do is cheat their rank up to level 50 and just play unranked custom games all the...
that a lot of the posts on N4G are articles. Articles often times include the writers opinion.
That is why there is the option to post either "article" or "news". Usually when there is someone "complaining" about what was posted not being news is bc they don't like what the article states.
Look at the above heading. It clearly says article, NOT news.
does make some really nice PCs. But you can build your own for about half the price. I still love the case and the lights though.
That is why Alienware let's you trade in "anything". They can sell it on Ebay and still make a killing off of their massively overpriced PC's.
how they are going to fix this. The main way people cheat is by "bridging". They basicly create a closed network that "poisons" or blocks out all of the other IP's that are faster than theirs except for the Xbox LIVE IP's. On Xbox LIVE Host is determined by whoever has "the fastest" connection.
This way "The Bridger" always gets host. And having "host" is what enables the cheating. Basicly as long as someone has access to X...
has no worries. With the install base comes the games. Currently the Xbox 360 install base is over 2 times the amount of the PS3. This is what will give Microsoft bargaining power for 3rd party exclusives. This was the primary reason that the PS2 had so many exclusives last generation. It wasn't bc 3rd party publishers "preferred" to develop for Sony's platform.
A lot of extremists don't seem to realize that there is no "brand loyalty" for third party p...
they are making it doesn't mean Microsoft isn't. It could just be a play on words.
Like Microsoft would be stupid enough to alienate there entire user base by making games that were HDDVD only. If they ever did release this upgraded system it would be souly to watch HDDVD movies on and games would still be on DVD-9.
These types of articles draw the Sony extremists out because they can tout Bluray as being an advantage to the PS3. Which it is, but it is also the reason why the PS3 is tanking in sales bc of the high price tag.
Disagree button t...
Microsoft has money invested into HD-DVD. They are one of the many partners. So why would they put a Bluray drive in the 360?? That is just an assinine statement. The HD media war will take years. HD media makes up less than 10% of "total" DVD sales.
It's just Sony fanboys that think the HD format war is "over". Both HD-DVD and Bluray are a joke when compared to DVD-9 sales.
You people just question the HD-DVD 360 bc it will most likely ...
I think that part of the article pretty much sums it up. For either format to win they have to start outselling regular DVD-9s. And with 2 formats competing for the 51% of "total" DVD market share it could take years. Such was the case with the DVD vs VHS war years ago.
Right now HD media makes up less than 10% of the total DVD market. Which ever player reaches the price bw $100 to $200 will most likely be the one that prevails.
who can't pay $50, but could magicly pay $350. Isn't that a catch 22??
A contradiction??
I do wish that Xboxlive was free, as I'm sure anybody would. But I don't think it would be a good trade off. I feel that a lot of the money that Microsoft has made from Xboxlive has been put back into it over the years. It has been in the making for over 5 years now. The amount of content that is out now is far superior than what it was on the Original Xbox.
A story like this is the muber 1 story with the most heat. Just goes to show how this website operates.
I was going to post this story myself but I thought it was retarded. It was in the tips section. I approved it anyways.
that is correct. But this is a Destructoid "official post" which is their "opinion or critique" of what was said by Sony. And according to the N4G guidelines can be posted as an article.
Sony's own arrogance seems to have placed the PS3 in a humble 3rd place in the console race. I guess all of their outrageous claims at launch as well as degrading their fan base have come back to haunt them.
Remember Sony said that the PS fanbase would buy a PS3 at launch "no matter what it was", and also "We could sell 5 million PS3's at launch even if it had no games."
good news. An American or European developed Street Fighter wouldn't be right. I always assumed it would be a Japanese developed game.
I only hope that Capcom sticks with 2D or at least a 2.5D with Hi-res artwork for the sprites. I'm sure the animation would be truly impressive with SF3 still having some of the smoothest 2D animation even today.
You are right power of Green. This website is infested with them. You can't even go into a 360 Review thread and comment on the actual article anymore. Like I have always said there is a difference bw being a "fan" and a "fanatic."
Usually there is an essay typed by Nasim. I recommend getting him down to 1 bubble so he will be auto-ignored by the community.
To the people who hate campers or a team that uses strategy. You are most likely the idiot who runs across the playing field with single SMG or Plasma Rifle. And are also probably the reason why your team always loses.
It is always good to have a long range and also a mid range or even close range weapon. In combination with grenades anything can work. A really deadly combo is a frag grenade and a BR shot to the head. Pretty much instant death.
at Halo 3 you will camp or at least be cautious of where you go. And also be aware of where your team is and use good communication. The idiot who keep running out in the open and getting sniped or BR'd to death is the reason why your team will always lose.
And is a mistake of low level players. Getting kills isn't as important as "not getting killed" at least in Team Slayer bc even if you only have a score of 1, if the other team has 0 you still win. I'n not sayin...
how this thread is about Halo 3 but all of your comments are about other games like Warhawk and Vegas.
These articles are funny. Capcom was around making arcade games even before the original NES was made. They became well known on the Nes, Snes, and Sega Genesis/Megadrive.
