I should just jump in? Seriously, as an Xbox fan, are you happy w/ this announcement? I know I'm not. I don't mind Natal at all. But I do have a serious issue w/ MS trying to extend the life of the 360 w/ an overpriced peripheral that's aimed at casuals!
Bach telling us it'll have a similar pricing method to consoles: A) tells me it will be somewhere $149-$199 at launch. Something they plan to sell affordably doesn't need a price curve. B) it will be overpriced because aren't all...
DR1 is a horrible game compared to what's currently available. Although the control scheme is better than the RE series, the character models are laughable, the save points are mindnumbingly out of place (you sleep on a couch...in a mall...with zombies abound), and missions border on sheer stupidity (you're a war photographer who suddenly forgot how to take pics so you have to take pointers from some scrawny geek). But thank god for Grady, the mall janitor, or you wouldn't stand a chance. Ser...
clearly you're trolling, but to anyone that's wondering you simply use a USB stick to back up save files (you should be doing this anyway to prevent a YLOD fiasco or in case you do a HDD upgrade). Then transfer said game saves to new model. Yes you have to re-install game data, but who cares. Game files that don't backup I've generally found keep your save data on their servers anyway.
This should be a reply to your 5.0 post because Tachyon answered your 4.0.
Seriously, I hate defending Gamestop, but this hatred of their used games policy is amusing. Are people actually mad at Gamestop, or themselves at the fact these retards paid $65 for a game they most likely played on easy/normal, beat it under a week, and then think they should REWARDED with a hefty sum for "renting it" at launch?
I want to take the time to personally thank each and everyone of them for trading in their wares so callously. You see Gamestop doesn't pla...
excellent points and something I also said 8 months ago concerning PS2 BC. Sony would be better off putting certain titles on the PSN to maximize profit. Anyone I know w/ a sizable PS2 library has either an PS3 model w/ BC or a PS2 already anyway. I would much rather buy selected classics like MGS3 or GOW2 off the PSN and hopefully play them w/trophies, increased resolution (720p), dualshock3 support for home use, and the ability to rip them to the PSP for traveling (any combo of options woul...
but it looks like someone's been watching a little too much Dreamscape lately. I was half-expecting the Snake man to make an appearance during the gameplay.
They announce that the patch they announced 3 months ago is ALMOST ready to release....in a week or two.
The only difference between "hardcore" and "casual" is playtime - NOTHING else. If Joe Public buys his little girl a copy of some Barbie game on the DS and lil' Suzy plays it 40 hrs a week for a month straight, she's not hardcore?
And enough of the PC snobbery. I guarantee you I've spent more on console gaming this gen than you've (your parents for that matter) spent on PC gaming:
MY rig - A 52" 1080p Sammy series 7, 320gig PS3, X360 Elite, W...
do you gameshare w/ your mates on the ps3? Honestly, I have no problem saying XBL has better community features but gamesharing is the PSN's ultimate equalizer in terms of content. In fact, unless it's an XBLA exclusive I always buy it off the PSN anymore.
I haven't paid for any of WAW or KZ2's DLC yet enjoyed it all for free. Got Burnout and the Paradise Island DLC as well. For my part I always snag the quirky titles like Fat Princess and Crash Commandos. And best of all, Sony...
Good to see a little humor at clearly a non-laughing matter.
All-night basement tourneys for racing/fighting games. With multiple pizzas and 2-liters of soda. 10-12 screaming kids. Bragging rights at school for the entire week were on the line. 2 combatants fixated on a crummy 19" TV with the huddled masses intently watching our every move. Now that I look back on it, can't believe the parents put up with that. It literally was a microcosm of those giant Street Fighter tourneys you see in Korea.
BTW, shamska I understand your point. ...
I know this is sad to say, but things like this don't even register with folks here. I read about it in the paper, but it didn't even make the local news.
No offense but I got bigger fish to fry when Jeffrey Dahmer lived 10 minutes away from me from the north and Thomas Lee Dillon lived 10 minutes away from the south. Hell, the kid who wasted Mom and shot Dad over Halo only lived 30 minutes from here :(
This is the silver lining to all the AAA titles that got delayed. Brutal Legend & Borderlands became Day 1 purchases. The fact that Mr. Schafer considers Black Sabbath's Sabotage as one of the genre's best albums EVER further lends credibility to the IP. Seriously, it's a top 5 metal (hell, rock-N-roll) all-time album. I got goosebumps just thinking of firing up either console in Rocktober and hearing "Symptom of the Universe" actually incorporated into the gameplay :) Recording...
and I thought it was bad enough having to see your idiotic fanboy rants about Sony proliferate every article. You're an IW whore too?
BTW, 2>4>MW2. They get shorter, less engaging, MP is noob friendly (auto-aim), the perks system removes skill from the leaderboards, etc..
I guess you never played SP co-op in WAW? Or zombie mode? You've never thrown a grenade back at the enemy (from COD3 ironically)? Or let me guess, you hate the fact they support a game they de...
I read the posts before clicking on the site and, while watching the video, laughed at the veracity of your post. Not one adult they interviewed for the piece was physically fit. Makes you wonder if the irony will ever dawn on them.
FTB3? Why not Tactical Strike 2? *takes a look at socom's PSP metacritic ratings* Hmmn...let me guess. You're not happy just ruining Socom's console experience? You want to provide the same level of IP butchering to another one of Sony's platforms? What's next Combined Assault2 for the PS2? The trifecta of disaster FTW.
Best Buy matches prices w/ Amazon the 1st week a BR releases. I bought the 1st season of Star Trek for $65. It now retails for $90 at the same BB. Same w/ dozens of other movies, most notably the Matrix and Underworld box sets. You need to be BR savvy and check sites like Blu-Ray.com or BR HDdigest to find out when your favorite titles come out. Usually a trip to the BB 10 minutes down the block will save you the hassle of online shopping.
But yeah, after that release week has pa...
Already ME and the Sonic RPG, this fall Dragon Age, next spring ME2. Not to mention they're also hard at work on the SW MMO for PC. wRPG devs are doing just fine this gen in terms of productivity AND sales (4 wRPGs over 2 mil), it's the....
Japanese devs (no title yet has sold even a mil) who are in a pickle this gen. Do they forgo millions of proposed sales on handhelds in hopes that something strikes a chord w/ Western audiences on consoles? Or does console development costs pl...
According to the article they had to make the engine, the game itself, and an animated short. I hope this comes to fruition as I enjoy games like Heavenly Sword and Dead Space that attempt to create an entire mythos in conjunction with the game's release. In fact, I highly recommend watching both 6-part animated shorts off PSN before playing either game. And there's also the DS animated full-length movie you can rent too. Helps to create tension in the game before you ever play it.
Whenever I find an enjoyable game, I never want it to end. Like poker or sex, I slowplay it till the end. Uncharted - they said 5-6 hrs/me 11 1/2, Heavenly Sword - 5hrs/me 9, and recently ODST 5 hr/me10. I remember someone gloating about ME taking less than 15hrs. Damn what a waste of a great story. I made sure it took me over 30. But my kids are just like yours and everybody else's. Play it on easy/normal, win it as fast as you can and move on. When we were young, you'd be disappointed if we...
