The thing about the agree/disagree button is that it's heavily influenced by what is actually said. So the number of agrees/disagrees cannot really give a good good indication of the amount of a certain type of fanboy but could maybe give you an insight into which one talks the most bullsniz.

Hitting disagree when someone talks crap doesn't make you a fanboy for the opposite system.

Thanks for reading :)

I think competition is generally good but then I think back to PS2 days and wonder how so many great games got released on that platform without much competition at all.

There are occasions where competition leads to rushed development cycles or overlooked QC, i.e MS rushing to release the 360 on the market before competitors might have lead to RROD problems.

Competition can push companies to go that extra mile but it's silly to think that there are no ne...

You're absolutely right, there's no excuse for this tragedy.

Don't bunch skeptics in with haters it's a completely different point of view. It's OK to be skeptical of a product that has yet to provide you with enough evidence to formulate an adequate opinion.

Let's face it, your argument is nothing but a knee-jerk reaction to what you perceived as a negative opinion toward your console of choice. You can scream numbers at me until you're blue in the face but it means absolutely squat to a person basing their opini...

Is this a joke article?

Frank O'Connor was a writer for Bungie and not a developer. Although his absence may effect the game it will be in story only, which Halo has never been critically acclaimed for anyway.

Thanks for reminding me about him though, any more links of actual developers anyone?

Are you just making that up? Can you give me a shred of evidence that any major member of the team left Bungie?

Can somebody get me a link please?

How are Portal and Pacman tattoos XBLA tattoos? Why not just say gaming tattoos?

Is this going to be Microsoft's answer to Vidzone and Qriocity? I wonder if the Sony produced artists will appear on this service?

Why not?

If they make a good game people will buy it, simple as that.

I think the majority of 'core' gamers have made up their minds by now. I shall remain skeptical until I see it for myself.

@Quagmire

Sharp refers to Quincy Sharp, who was the Warden of Arkham Asylum during the first game.

The puppet and strings analogy probably refers to a plot point in which, I assume, Sharp is manipulated in some way by Hugo Strange.

I'd like to congratulate Naughty Dog on fixing the issues so fast and giving us the opportunity to play this game early.

If the support they have shown toward the game in the last few days carries over to the final release, I'll be playing for a very long time :)

Looks pretty good for a 'work in progress' kinda like the secret love child of Killzone and Warhawk :P

<1% of N4G visitors will bother to read this article. It's a slightly pretentious and misguided point of view in my eyes but it's written better than almost any N4G submission I have ever seen. A lot of thought has gone into this piece but I doubt it will generate more than a 100 degrees. Sorry Robotgeek, I hope I'm wrong.
