Gabe couldn't deny the potential $s anymore, that's all there is to it.
Some of the greatest games out there are love/hate games, which will bring the average down. Ratings like these will always be flawed.
How hard can it really be to fix this hardware fault? They have lost millions, if not billions to RROD/GROD(lol) and even after several hardware revisions they have still not solved it. Are they incapable of fixing it? Or do they not care/have some sinister evil plan behind it all?
Can't be good for a company to have such widespread and well-known hardware faults.
@ Disagree - What's there to disagree with? They have lost millions to RROD, that's ...
Made my day. I laughed so hard after reading this.
"also physically incapable of getting the red ring of death. No, that doesn't mean the console won't break -- instead, the Xbox 360 slim lacks a red "ring of light." If your console runs into some fatal error, expect it to flash green."
And that, ladies and gentlemen - is how Microsoft solves most of their problems.
FISSION MAILED
I have always considdered myself as one of the biggest MGS fans out there. Played every game in the series a tenfold of times, all I can say is:
RIP Snake... MGS died with you.
I will probably get Rising for story reasons, or maybe just pretend it was never released... I'm sad it has come to this, I really am.
Oh yes! I've wanted another Hot Pursuit game for years! And now Criterion is developing it? HELL YEAH!
No, I'm talking about the fact that the story ended with MGS4, now they are pumping out 2 games at a time. "Lightning Bolt Action" please.... This game so far lacks any MGS spirit. It's turning into a cash cow, and they are milking it.
5 million copies = the second best selling MGS game of all time, so shut it. The reason I don't like the fact that it's multiplatform is because MGS has always been a series to push the technology to its limits, Risin...
It's sad that MGS has come to this...
Seriously... This was debated when the FIRST teaser image dropped! And it was officially debunked by Hideo himself. Fail article.
Patcher... You're always wrong, just quit! Get another job, please... All you do is filling up N4G with useless articles about your "predictions" Nobody wants you!
It's not Sony's fault that Sqeenix sacrifises quality for sales numbers, that is their own decision, and if that's what they want to do, then so be it. They wont be getting my money.
I seriously hope that cloud gaming will fail... It's a fun concept, but I like buying physical games, I like having a physical console, and besides - until the internet is SO fast that lag and response times are at close to 0, it will be a worse experience.
Ping my friend. From the moment you push the analogue stick on the controller 'till the command is sent to the server and the data is sent back to you again. So aiming in FPS's for instance would be near impossible. On a good connection you would get at least 30-50ms ping. Remember the Killzone 2 "controller lag"? Well that was due to a 7ms delay, the normal is 3-4 on consoles. So much hate for 3ms extra, what do you think 30 extra ms will do?
Oh well, will be busy with the SC2 beta mostly, and the weeks it's supposed to be down I'll play some Demons Souls and maybe some Bad Company 2.
Well, look at Bad Company 2, that game had huge PC sales!
Well, this one is being developed by Criterion, so I actually believe this one will be good!
He sucks... He's driving with automatic gear changing... omg...
The physics are 10 times more realistic than Forzas, and the car sounds are all recorded from each and every real life car.
@ Sinncross, you have no idea what you're talking about.
Scratches and dents - All cars
Damage to physics, handling etc - all cars
Panels, bumpers and other parts falling off making the car look demolished - Premium cars.
