The Xbox 360 will beat the PS3 by reducing costs, dropping the price and going to mass-market *much* faster.
The two machines are roughly equally capable, except that the Xbox 360 doesnt need a HD (optional) and doesnt use an expensive BR drive (unnecessary).
As a result, the Xbox 360 will be at integrated as a "standard" into many many many devices.
Think of it as the "Xbox 360 Inside" -- Windows Media Center Extender functiona...
A) "Horde" means "enemy" in the Gears of War universe.
B) This video shows you up-to Level 5 of 50 in this mode.
WATCH THE VIDEO. Yes, GO WATCH IT AGAIN.
From the start, notice in the top left it says "Level 3".
Then about 30 seconds in, they complete the stage, and see a Statistics page. It says "LEVEL 3 COMPLETE".
Then, you see them playing "LEVEL 4".
This particular group doesnt make it past LEVEL 5.
There are ***50*** Levels.
YOU == FAIL.
@kigmal
#1 & #3 are mutually exclusive. I bet #2.
Firstly, Gears of War (GoW) uses "horde" to describe the alien enemy. Not always in the dictionary sense;
Definition for horde
- large crowd; nomadic group: a group of nomads, especially of a people who live by hunting and foraging for food hunter-gatherers; swarm or pack.
So, what is the issue here? What it is flaming, the usual loud-mouthed nonsense -- "OHMG!!1! That's only 4 enemies! A horde* is at least 5!1! Like in %PS3_Exclusive%!1!&...
Interesting idea.
The reality is that the Xbox 360 has the best gameplay and graphics on BioShock.
So, what's your point about the Xbox 360? You dont make any sense.
Perhaps these kinds of nit-picking criticisms should wait until after the game has been RTM? ya think?
"ireport.com" who?
Oh, a no-name site can always get some traffic from N4G by talking smack against MS.
Who approves this trash with a title like that?
NO ONE has 10 machines die and it **NOT** be something he is doing.
Its mathematically impossible.
I call BS.
But it's not competitive. It is being outsold by leaps and bounds -- including in Japan (a fickle market to say the least).
This is a complete non-story, from a non-site about a non-event.
How does this get approved? A no name website covering the sales at Amazon?
Really? It's almost as much value as the 1231231'th LBP beta-key story.
Why the *f* was this approved? This isnt a movie site.
Wow, what crazy 3rd-party guesses can the hive of sony loyalists at N4G make?
For anyone who's ever had a job in the real world, you'll know that generally, Hiring Freezes arent.
The screenshot looks absolutely amazing. The texture on that jacket is some of the best seen in *any* game.
Alan Wake is going to be a break-out hit. I'm not one for such games normally (like FPS, platform, shooter, adventure, RPG) but Alan Wake looks like it's going to be terrific.
A real gamer's game.
"FFXIII PS3 bundle they risk losing sales in Japan if they announce it now in my opinion."
Explain this exactly.
So, SE increases its audience (PS3 & Xbox 360 owners) and somehow it sells less? Why? Because PS3 owners refuse to buy it for their PS3 because it is available on Xbox 360?
That doesnt make *any* sense.
"(FXIII now on Xbox 360) It still feels weird saying that"
I'm sure it felt wierd saying "final fantasy on ps" back when SE shipped it to Nintendo.
SE ships wherever the gamers are.
"ff13 is not a game that makes or breaks a system u clearly baised fanboy."
This forum sure has changed its tune then. Before SE announced it was going to release it on Xbox 360, FFXIII was the *ONLY* game to care about.
Now? Well, the disillusioned are saying otherwise.. its very sad to see such dishonesty.
Personally? I dont care. Final Fantasy is nothing without Sakaguchi-san. I'll not be buying FFXIII anyway.

"delay the PS3 version, which would show that M$ is paying them big bucks"
Or, perhaps SE would like to make more money.
A) Xbox 360 has a larger worldwide install base (by leaps and bounds).
B) Xbox 360 owners buy more games.
Which platform would you *WANT TO DELIVER FIRST* if you were interested in making money? Now, take off your fanboy-hat and try to think like an executive at SE.
Thats right! MS doesnt have to...
The Xbox 360 outsold the PS3 in JAPAN last month.
The NDP numbers for last month will be here soon, the Xbox 360 is *burying* the PS3.
Time for you to accept this reality. Your "downard upward slope" nonsense is just pure, 100%, unadulterated fiction.
