It's a fantastic TV for $200. I wish the screen wasn't glossy and I prefer the passive 3D system of my LG TV to the active of the Sony, but it is an absolutely top notch TV.
Of course there will be loads of DLC. Cows don't milk themselves...
That's awesome. Thanks!
It looks pretty good, but I would like to see it in action.
Arkham Asylum/City have set the bar incredibly high for Batman games.
You're right, the God of War franchise has been milked a bit. I disagree about the LBP; there are just three games: the original, a sequel, and a Vita version. I wouldn't call that milking the franchise.
And while Sony has gone back to the well a few times, we also got Warhawk, Starhawk, MGS 4, Demon's Souls, Ratchet and Clank, Motorstorm, Heavenly Sword, GT 5, and so on.
I think overall Sony has taken a few more risks than Microsoft. That's ...
Gears, Forza, Halo, and a XBLA title? Seriously, a blind person could have seen these exclusives coming.
2013: rinse, lather, and repeat.
That doesn't mean they won't be quality games, but you would hope that Microsoft could offer something a little more imaginative. Sony seems to take far more risks in this regard.
Yeah, I was wondering where this article got their valuation from, because we're apparently paying a 30% premium over American prices and our new game prices are, to the best of my knowledge, the same. Unless they are counting game hardware or the cost of used/older games.
I can wait eight months when I haven't even finished Arkham Asylum yet (also GOTY edition). I have dozens of games waiting to be played. I'm not missing anything. And yes, I was exaggerating for effect about "half a game."
But think about it for a second. If you have the patience to wait a few months, any game will drop to half or a quarter of the price. Who are you rewarding when you pre-order? Only the retailer.
The only time pre-orderin...
I never pre-order anything. I just bought Arkham City GOTY with all the DLC for $29 from Amazon. If I had pre-ordered I would have paid full retail for half a game that I could later buy for half the price with twice the content.
Exactly. "Give us $300 worth of games and we'll give you $170 of credit!" It's a sucker deal.
I think so as well. It looks like it could be a lot of fun.
I love these treasure hunting/adventure genre games.
The problem is then the lowest common denominator machine becomes the platform to which all games must be developed.
How many games has this neutered for the 360?
Kinect is turning into the Powerglove of the new millennium.
The problem is Ubisoft can't match the magic of the "Sands of Time" and has been casting about with different themes for each successive game: "Warrior Within" went angry and amped up the combat; "Two Thrones" ended the trilogy with the split personality approach; "Prince of Persia 2008" went artsy-fartsy; and the "Forgotten Sands", while a great game in my opinion, was aptly titled.
Why would anyone bother "reserving" games for a system that first, hasn't been released yet and second, the titles themselves will be available in the millions? You don't even know the availability of the system yet, so you might be pre-ordering a game for a console that you won't be able to purchase for weeks, maybe months even if games are readily available.
But this GameStop, the company that would take your money to reserve the new "720 Move U V...
I absolutely guarantee you that the single on-screen controller is going to be cause of numerous family conflicts over who gets to use it.
Have fun playing multi-player games with this system and fighting over the one controller with the screen.
My experience with 3D has been mixed. I find that in 3D movies, with the exception of "Avatar," the 3D effect adds nothing to the movie and within ten to fifteen minutes you become so accustomed to the effect that the added dimension is no longer consciously present.
3D gaming, on the other hand, appears to be far better served by 3D technology than film. One aspect to films that diminishes the 3D "presence" is that the camera focus is fixed, unlike games...
I don't think that is much of an impediment considering that the studio selected the "good" ending of the first game as the basis for the second.
There is no reason the next game could not springboard off the hero ending in the second game.
Did you even play Infamous 2? The "good" ending easily opens the possibility for a sequel.
