...was plain boooorrring. Multiplayer felt nasty and didn't even come with a lobby system making the entire on-line experience tacked on.

Lets face it, GTAIV was all about delivering a next-gen version of Liberty City but they forgot to deliver a good game to use it. Mind you, I was not overly impressed with the new Liberty City as it still suffered from jaggies and framerate drops.

I wonder what an "I Am Legend" type game could do with the GTAIV game...

....naff.

I wish someone would inject some new life into the fighting game genre as this looks like something that could have been released last gen.

...but the pics don't look all that impressive, well not as impressive as the videos I've seen in the past for RE5.

...infrastructure in this part of the world then I dare say Home will be a major disappoinment. That is, the speed of getting content off the PSN in NZ is still rater disappointing. I can go into the Store and be waiting for 90 seconds before all icons for the new release items are displayed. However, when I sign into my US account the icons for all new release items display in about 15-20 seconds.

Obviously NZ is not a big market for Sony but at some stage we have to stop p...

...that such people don't have a right to play and enjoy games or have an opinion of them?

Have you never enjoyed a game and then had someone else categorise you in such a derogatory way?

...put the Halo 3 lobby system on the COD4 multiplayer gameplay and you'd have an almost perfect multiplayer experience.

...but for slightly different reasons:

1. Too many underage players playing it on-line now.
2. The lobby system. I still can't believe how many reviews praise what is essentially a multiplayer game that features such a sub-par multiplayer lobby system.

I would rate this game as follows:
- Single Player Campaign - 7/10. Fun but forgettable with no real replay value.
- Multiplayer - 9/10. Fun and addictive as hell when you end up in a good...

...the demo was fun, the graphics pretty solid. I may just have to pick it up for some arcade driving thrills.

As for Motorstorm, it just didn't hook me in. Sure it was fun and some of the graphics were great but it was missing replays, time trials and nearly everything else many have come to expect in a racing game. I especially disliked races where you were forced to use a motorbike. Bikes in motorstorm were pretty naff.

Best arcade racing/rally game is s...

What do you mean so early. Vista came out last year?

Remember Windows 95, 98, 2000. I would have thought 3 years between major releases would have been a bit long in my opinion.

Oh, and when did you last see a game sell over a 100 million copies? Vista may have its problems but its certainly no failure.

...but not at a consumer level for some time after 2011. I dare say retailers would prefer its kept on the quiet also as the current flat panels (and variations of them) will be a cash cow for at least another 6 or 10 years.

1080p is fine for now but give it a few years when 100" displays become the norm consumers will be demanding higer resolutions. Big problem is, will other technologies (i.e. cable/satellite netwroks, etc) other than PCs be ready to support them?

...some real digital turds but why not let gamers vote which ones to remove by getting XBL users to rate the games. If a game falls below a certain rating then it will be removed.

However, this only works if XBLA continues to provide playable demos of all XBLA games. I wish Sony would do that on PSN...provide demos of all PSN games that is.

...and that is exclusives should be a showcase of the platform it was built upon. A reason for those who don't own that console to think "damn, maybe I should have got that insted of the one I did buy".

Although NGII is by no means a Haze (i.e. a bomb) its still a shame it was not worked on to ensure it was flawless for its release. NG on the Xbox was one of the best, NGII on the 360 won't be. Shame that another console exclusive has not quite lived up to the high...

...if in any other industry their had been such a high failure rate there would have been a partial or full product recall. MS must be credited with being able to prevent such a recall occuring as if there had been one the 360 would have been crucified. You have to wonder how much better the 360 would have done if it had not suffered from the well publicised technical issues.

I for one have never had any issues with my 360 however, its not been switched on for almost half a y...

...just when you picking this up for your 360?

Until its released its nothing but an exclusivity announcement. Don't get your jollies off until its been released and reviewed for the 360 as I dare say it will differ from the PC version.

...had better environmental graphics. The images provided above don't really do either game full justice as both games need to be seen in motion to really appreciate them.

Why do I think Uncharted had better environment graphics - easy, the environments felt alive with real time wind and shadow effects. There were times I just sat there and looked at the screen as it looked so real. Oh, and as for the jeans looking funny in uncharted in the image above, the character had just...

...allow XBL members to vote for the game within marketplace. Then allow ll XBL users to then apply filters by averaging rating to exclude all the sub-standard content from search lists.

Would be interesting to see what the user voted top 25 games are on XBLA.

...out and buy the uncensored version now!!!!

oh wait, GTAIV gameplay pretty much sucked. Buying the uncensored version so I can get off watching low-res CG whores would just make me a loser.
