what was we talking about again? ;P
What the gaming industry needs is to return to The Three Tier Pricing chart.
Tier 1 ($50): AAA games such as UC2, KZ2, Demon's Souls
Tier 2 ($40): AA Games such as Prince of Persia, HAWX, Mirrors Edge
Tier 2 ($30): A Games such as "all movie based games!!!"
This would greatly help the sales of new IPs as they would not have to prove that they are worth just as much money than well established franchises. Also, $10s may not seem like much of a di...
Dedicated servers.
How many times have I gotten all amped up to play a few rounds of MW1 and just when the match is about to end... "Host left Game". So I go into the next lobby, talk a little prematch hype, map loads, then... "Host left Game". So I tried it one more time, this time the map begins to load up just seconds after I hit the lobby. This time everything goes fine and the match is underway. I turn the corner to find some jerk is lag switching, or usi...
and I'm still not going to get MW2. =P
Activision must really reeeally want this game to sell to allow such deals. Feels like a marketing reaction to the sudden surge of preorder/prepurchase cancellations.
This is just a Dig Dug wanna be suckas.
Respect the Dug,
Love the Dug
You Dig.
PS
Just had to get my fanboi on, don't mind me.
UC2 single player > MW2 singleplayer
UC2 multiplayer > MW2 multiplayer
hmmmm?
Sorry, it could just be me, but I see no reason to get MW2 (aka more of the same broken gameplay) when UC2 beats this game in every way. To those who do get this game, just remember you choose to pay for "Host Left Game" knowing full well it was gonna happen... over and over again.
Lovely prices on those tvs. 8o
Act and IW would just be driving gamers into Zippers latest masterpiece.
PS3
It only does EVERYTHING!!!
We all know that sooner or later nearly all console games end up on PC emulators. Heck there is one for the Wii already. Yea yea yea it is "illegal" to use emulators they way most people do, but what's a gamers to do when they get that retro twitch. ;P
Edit:
To 1.7
For about $300 you can build a decent gaming rig good enough to run MassEffect. To match consoles you only need about 2GHz+ cpu, 2Gbs ram, and a $100-$150 video card. About half the computers use...
Yea it's too bad Sony didn't just give the PSPgo 3G wireless support, heck cellular support would have been nice. They could have killed two birds with one stone and everyone would have been happy. Portable gaming and a great phone all in one package, but nooooo, that would have been too much like right. It's no wonder the iPhone and PSP are the same price, yet iPhones are flying off the shelf. >=(
Sony's greatest weakness is their shortsightedness when it comes to the PSP. They could give it a built in cam and built in 3G/4G wireless, then sit back and watch the PSP print money.
Only a few adults want to walk around with a phone And a psp, especially since phones are starting to be able to do 80% of what the PSP can do. Such as playing games, playing videos, and of course music. The only real advantages the PSP has over most phones is the screen size, button controls, and ...
Yep, come March 31st I'm going to be $120+ lighter in the wallet...
but 240+ gaming hrs happier. =)
It's very likely that in exchange for Bungie's help, ND has been helping them learn how to master the PS3. That might explain why Bungie has an ex-ND member working for them now.
Hmmm? Now I really wonder what's next on Bungies agenda
But how the game didn't take the time to really teach you how to use them before placing you 10ft deep into the heart of battle.
The game just didn't guide you through them in the early stages in proper levels leading up to the first battle. So here you are trying to master something as simple as turning and aiming while being shot at, all the while your being distracted by frantic cutscenes. It was all just too much action too soon for even experienced gamers when first playing ...
This is a licensed third party controller that is basically a direct rip of the Wiimote. This is not the Sony developed one, so it will not need the PSEye to work. Although that leaves me wondering if this one can do true 1:1 motion tracking or if it is just a PS3 version of MotionPlus.
Edit:
I do like the fact that it comes with a d-pad and an analog stick. That alone gives it one advantage over the current version of the PSSphere (wand) controller. That one element elimin...
Knowing this, I'll just wait 1-2yrs for the re-release of the game, the one that will include all the expansion packs. Kinda like the Oblivion: GOTY edition. Besides, I miss the good old days when games came complete and costed only $50.
So True.
How come I got deleted by a mod in the open zone. This article is about features on a console... I was just pointing out some of my favorite features on a console... ok I was trolling a little bit but not so bad that it warrented deletion.
Ohh well. Doesn't change the fact that PS3 still does Everything... including ordering pizza with the built in browser that can access facebook and twitter. =P

So 360 plays BR games and movies better. How about surfing t...
I rather enjoyed reading your (shots fired) short review of this (shots fired) game. I was thinking of picking this (shots fired) up after I get Demon's (shots fired) Souls and Uncharted (shots fired) 2. Thanks for the (Shots fired) warning!
