"Square acts like EA so much now"
Anyone remember Square's press release that they were going to actually FOCUS on remakes and spinoffs INSTEAD of developing new IPs?
Final Fantasy (2000-)7: Now with Party Roster Updates!
Final Fantasy X: NCAA Championship edition: With an totally reworked Blitzball Passing system!

I...
Wh...
Ummm...
There just aren't any words. How about "I bet Master Chief is probably in there too". Heh. Seriously, though, they're kind of a central plot point.
Yup. For the record, pretty much every leak ever has been follosed by bannination / etc. Nobody has ever been smart enough to figure out, randomly:
1) He managed to block out his own gamertag and demo info. Good start. Most people don't even get that far.
2) As said, Bungie keeps records of all game scores and players, so he's screwed there.
3) Bungie's records even record the times and locations of all the kills. All they need is one decent idea of the place and timing o...
People cutting each other off in traffic probably results in more violence and death every day than violent games ever will.
Does playing a violent game make kids (temporarily) more agressive? Sure. So does getting an 'A' on a report card, finishing a treehouse, or getting a shiny new skateboard, for some random examples.
Yes, you're right. SIXAXIS is the world's only black controller ever.

"Why ya gotta be that way, huh?"
You mean the Spartan Laser, one of (if not the) first new weapons revealed regarding Halo3, and which has been seen widely and talked about frequently in virtually every single major media piece talking about Halo 3 since any information at all went public?
Yeah, that one.
Wow. Ignorance != fact.
Yes, something out of nothing is a big problem- one that scientists are still dealing with. But the Big Bang theory has accurately predicted a LOT of things that have later been proven through study. It's been so thoroughly tested that we literally have the Bing Bang modeled to a tiny fraction of a second after it happened. As in, a millionth of a second is much bigger at this point. We're very close- but there's a world of hurt in expaining that last ti...
Just like with HaloPC, a Mac port will probably come later. Nothing's official, but Bungie started out as a Mac company- they won't leave that platform in the dark.
Anyone remember when Worms was finally kicked out the door, and even the developers admitted it was severly buggy? Give developers time- a lot of 'em apparently forget that Live Arcade games need to be tested just like any other game!
Good to see so many people are getting smart about this.
1- This article is probably wrong.
2- Even if Halo COULD display in 1080p, you probably wouldn't want it to, because most of us care more about better-looking and smoother gameplay in 720p than wasting pwoer on 1080p. I'm glad to see people are finally getting this one!
3- If there is a company that can magically make 1080p happen with no major cuts to the game, it'd be Bungie, so we can all hold out a small hope. B...
Replays can have hood cams, too, so that's not the best example. You might want to refer to the various public events Forza2 has been domoed at instead. There are tons of media outlets that have gotten to actually play the game in its current state, lots of photos and caps from those events, and the word of person after person saying yes it really does look like that.
...and as said, they're making massive graphical improvements all the time now, so the title has already jumped...
*looks around nervously*
Didn't SEGA do this same thing just before...
Ah, forget it. I don't wanna die.
Heh.
Seriously, though. Everyone supporting this move into sequel land? Really?
...so when EA "updates" footballgames, but with better graphics and new features, that's bad. But when Square does it, it's revolutionary?
...and so when you're playing Final Fantasies 1-13, not including Crystal Chronicles, X-2, Dirge ...
I would love to have some of what you're on.
Or is this another one of those "myPSP" things where Sony's hired somebody?
Creeps me out even thinking about that.
Did I say those were bad-looking games in my comment?
I said, when a game looks like crap, 1080p is easy.
Good-looking game + 1080p would = better-looking game, this is true.
Bad-looking game + 1080p is like having an ugly date and cleaning your glasses- all you'll do is see the ugly a little better.
Now if you wanna debate the merits of wasting system power on 1080p when the developers could just imrove the core game, that's another story. This gam...
Before anyone else whines, please read:
1- This is a laptop slim-factor hard drive that doesn't need an external power plug as it recieves all power from its connector. Yes, the INTERNAL version of the drive costs $100. The one where you only get the bare drive, have to rip open your case, connect a power and IDE cable to... THAT one is only $100. This one snaps onto your case, and voila! Slight difference. And yes, 120GB drives can be gotten for $50. They're also crappily made...
Windows Mell? What does that mean? Did the nerds of the world unite and try to come up with the dumbest way to make fun of Vista they could imagine? Gah!
-I got a computer with Vista on it. And it works. And it's pretty. You can do the same.
-OS upgrades happen all the ****ing time! Anyone remember Win1.x, Win2.x, Win 3.x, Win 95a/b, Win 98/SE, win NT, win ME, win 2000, and Win XP? Apparently not.
-How mane people simultaneously whine that XP is too old, and needs...
I have to agree. Frist they gave FFXI, and now they're creating a brand new IP just so they don't have to port Final Fantasy to 360? That's just mean-spirited at this point.
I guess in a decade Xbox 5 will launch with Final Fantasy X-2? Heh.
Pepperoni and extra cheese.

(muahaha)
Pong and Pac-Man ARE (or were) console gaming. Without them, this sector of the industry might not exist.
Agreed, sort of:
-Only Halo necessary, just like if Quake/DOOM is listed, only the first. The front title said it all, and the laters were just expanding on that concept.
-Guitar Hero is critical today, so I'd keep that one. But listing that without Gitaroo Man, DDR, and/or Parappa is insanity.
-Yeah, lots of FPS. But there have been a LOT of influentia...
