This isn't a BETA. This is nothing more than a "public" stress test. A la MGO. There wont be any improvements prior to the title's street date so throw that 6 week window out the...well you know...window. All they're doing now is refining the network so it works w/o major incident on October 14th.
My only questions are to Slant 6; when did the socom "classic" cam become GRAW's hideous "over-the-shoulder" cam? Was it 3 or combined assault? And did ...
To the only person on N4G that's ever been involved in a REAL beta.
/sarcasm
The funny thing is he actually believes that nonsense
Although COD3 was lackluster, it was far better than HAZE, Soldier of Fortune, Timeshift, or Turok. And wasn't Treyarch responsible for Tony Hawk 2 on the dreamcast? IMO w/ its level editor, TH2 is easily one of the 10 best games ever released on the console. That makes them no worse than 1-1 in my book. Let's see how the reviews shape up for COD:WaW before condemning it.
Do like I did - preorder from both and just cancel one. You still get your money back, you'll have both skins, and I'm sure I'll be able to find something to buy at either Best Buy or Gamestop with that $5 gift card :)
EDIT: Exactly sitdown. I wouldn't have posted this if I had seen your post but a morning cup of Joe inspires many bathroom trips and frequent delays.
6 weeks? I don't want to bust your bubble man, but we're not gonna last 6 hours!
then you're forgetting about the PAIN Amusement Park DLC. W/ a new area and trophies, I'm looking forward to it. And as for the HAZE DLC it was released last week for free here. I doubt FR & Ubi charge for it. They better not.
The delays or your asinine comments?
I don't know about the Wii (no one I know owns one - real life or PSN), but screen tearing is prevelant on both the 360 and PS3. And yes my friend, I remember those good old days. Nintendo's QA used to be the gold standard lol. Bugs used to be an anomoly, not a recurring theme. Bubbles for the trip down memory lane.
But thankfully it looks infinitely better from a technical standpoint, even on this horrible video capture. The extraction video from the PSN store was riddled w/screen tearing, clipping, FR, etc... In that form it wasn't even playable. The graphics, while not snake or drake good, have improved too since the 1st batch of screenshots. And trust me, I know the graphics have never the franchise's forte. It seems screen tearing though is the bane of this-gen's existence. September 5th - we all fi...
but more than likely we'll see an Eyepet bundle next year since one game is completely dependent on the peripheral and the other (LBP) isn't.
I almost spit my coffee all over my KB reading that - lol. Bubbles for the humor!
The decline of E3 was self-inflicted by the industry. It's great that all 3 regions have a "show" but to misdirect the real criticism and failings of E3 is asinine. Not allowing gamers (even though we fuel the entire industry) to enjoy the ambience, the floor exhibits and future products is a cardinal sin and the REAL crime.
Each of these shows should run 4 days in length (Thursday through Sunday) w/ the 1st two days being accessible to the media and developers only. ...
Been saying this for awhile but I don't expect to see GOW3 until 1st week of March of 2010. Several reasons for my prediction (I'm no Patcher but at least I'm providing some reasons):
1) All GOW games so far have released in March.
2) By waiting til 2010 the PS3 userbase will reach close to 25-30 million - ensuring high sales numbers
3) The above also makes sense from a business standpoint; releasing it at the end of the fiscal calender will help Sony meet project...

There's an article with negative PS3 news. And suprise suprise our favorite troll pog/marty decided to enlighten us with his profound knowledge. Of course, the irony forgotten in this situation is despite a bricked system, no games, and a slow optical drive, they STILL outsold your "precious" 5 of the 7 months this year (NPD data) in the the states and have outsold MS by over 2 million units worldwide since december 2007. If the PS3 is pathetic, what's that say about the 360?
However I disagreed w/ you because he didn't really bash COD4. He said it was a ton of fun, had great gameplay w/ simple mechanics - just reiterated the notion that it didn't reinvent the wheel. Taken in context w/ his overall point, he's using it as proof of the hypocrisy of the gaming industry. And he's right.
The MJE simply gives the user more patience. Setbacks aren't compounded with anger, thus allowing the user to solely focus on the task/objective for longer periods of time. And that timeframe is inherently dependant upon factors such as how much the user ingests, his "accumulated" threshold level, etc...
The PS2 version was released in 2006. Makes you wonder why the hell it took a company two years to release the PC version when it was created on the platform 1st?
It's perhaps the worst article I have ever read on N4g.
1) First off, no one but probably me even cares for KOEI products here
2) Everything in his wishlist ALREADY EXISTS so it only reinforces the notion that he's a total moron and the prime example of why blogs need to be screened before getting linked.
He wanted a RTS, RPG, and a fighting game based off the DW series.
Ok try the ROTK series for your RTS/RPG fix. It's only been here since ...
posting....yup 1 down.
