Asda was bought by Wal-Mart but they decided to keep the brand name. 2nd biggest suppermarket chain in the UK with Tesco been the first.
Tesco holds nearly double the marketshare that Asda holds.
The author unfortunately didn't consider both sides of the discussion or address any points you guys have raised already.
I think alot people discuss the launch date for the simple reason that they can't find a reason to buy a PS3 at the moment. I myself have just bought a 360 as I couldn't find one reason to buy a PS3 other than a belief that it will become a great system.
I also agree with you guys that in terms of user base, there is no way Sony could delay ...
Keep it coming!
If only EA took Madden as seriously you do
F1 is not even a comparison,
looks great but that is it, poor gameplay, poor ai result in a very average game.
close to $600 but thats life i guess ;)
4 million pre-ordered and still 5/6 months until release. Include the 3 week beta test and I think you you are looking at 6/7 million total.
Thats crazy to think that one game will probably outsell every top PS3 title combined.
Heres my total sale prediction: 10 million by Christmas
Very likely that it will be released on friday
I discussed this on my blog ( http://www.n4g.com/up/3069/...
Personally I don't believe the 'competition' argument dismisses the idea of a single hardware platform.
I mentioned a few examples in the blog post so i wont mention them again but basically all I am saying is that if you took away competition between hardware suppliers, you would heighten competition between game develope...
we totally need in Europe!
I don't think I will really use it too much but its still good to get the option. It would also give us the same functionality as our US counterparts :)
any guesses why the first screenshot doesnt use the blue filter?
could it be from a different location, time, etc? or maybe in game / cgi?
For once the mart is right! (never thought i would say that)
this is a news aggregator site. That means users search the internet and post anything that is relevant to the games industry. This article may cause arguments but who cares? you don't have to read the comments and you can block any users that you don't agree with or dislike.
If you want censored news then just visit 1UP, IGN, Gamestop etc but if you want a wider selection of news, opinions and views th...
The reason the Competition Commission have not got involved is (probably) because:
- No one flagged the sale - i.e a competitor
- Strangely complicated market due to the number of ways to buy.
- Gamestation were not going great at the time so it would probably be allowed so jobs are secured.
Alot of mergers seem to be allowed as long as it doesn't effect major industries such as banking or groceries.
Personally this doesn't effect me...
I can not wait for this game!
I think it going to be the best single player experience of the year.
I dont think 800 points is bad really, £5? thats not alot.
Most people would spend that on lunch so I wouldn't really have a problem with the price but I always find that new maps split the users into the 'haves' and the 'haves not'. Either everyone should have them or nobody in my opinion.
September is also a joke. July would be fair in my opinion. Whos really going to be playing Gears in September? Forza 2, Mass Effect, Bioshock etc I know I wont be :)
Great reply Jenzo, I dont really have anything to add :)
has anyone bought from shopto.net? seems abit dodgy to me, i dont like sites that 'copy' another sites template.
it does say that the author is not playing the final build so the AI issue will probably something they will pick up on if it is a common complaint
As I am English, I have played Madden over the years (since the megadrive) but never been too bothered about American Football.
Over the last few years I have started watching the NFL most weeks and started to take more interest in Madden. This year however I watched more College games as I found them more exciting.
This year I am unsure whether to get Madden, NCAA or both. Any advice?
(I even watched the Draft this year! I hope Quinn kills it thi...
why would they price match their own site? The reason things are cheaper on the internet is because they cut out retail stores.
Not many companies price match anymore. If you want it slightly cheaper then buy off the net and wait 3 days.
Sony has nothing to do with the offer. Its purely Amazon's choice.
p.s I thought most places were selling around that price?
