@superrey19: For general processing yes they do and that is exactly my point, More cores does not necessarily mean more powerful or more expensive.

As for gaming, it has been proven time after time that most Intel CPU's only give a slightly better performance in games, Most games simply aren't coded to fully utilize all that extra processing power. I remember when the i7 980x first came out there were some bench tests that showed it getting on average about 2-3fps bet...

@MAJOR:

That doesn't mean anything. AMD already has an 8 core CPU for $250

Also cores are only 1 small aspect of determining how powerful a CPU is. Simply having 16 cores doesn't necessarily make it more powerful than another CPU with half as many cores nor does it automatically make it more or even as expensive. ...

Apple already did it, and it failed so miserably that nobody even remembers it.

How about full Raptr support and the ability to permanently delete trophies that you no longer have the games for or simply don't want anymore.

The Wii Mote and Kinect are more popular than PS Move for the same reason Bose or logitech is more popular than proper hifi audio companies like Klipsch, Paradigm or B&W. Marketing. They market them to appeal to the casual market that knows little about the actual technology involved and fall blindly into gimicks like "Controller Free"
Nintendo also has the advantage of being Nintendo. They are a far more well known and accepted company for gaming than Sony or MS.

"The hardware is a big step forward, but it's not the end of the road. If I had to put a number on it, I'd say this was 80% of the way there to delivering true 1:1 motion detection in the hardware"

As much as i also enjoyed White knight, It bombed horribly on both pro and consumer reviews and sold miserably. White knight 2 was actually discontinued only a couple months after hitting north american retail because it sold so badly.

Most "gamers" these days are far too critical of RPG's and refuse to just accept and enjoy a game for what it is.

Nobody is "dictating" creative vision, people are dictating their rightful opinions on the quality of a product they payed $60 for.

Just remember, Customers can live without a company, A company cannot live without customers. Learn that simple truth then maybe you will realize who is truly being "entitled"

Finally, Thought i was the only one that liked FFXII.

I find most of the complaints about it are related to either the political aspect of the story, or the complexity of the Gambit system. IMO anyone who complains about the Gambit system is just too stupid to figure it out. Once you get used to it the level of freedom it provides is second to none. No other game i have ever played has given even half as much control over secondary party members.

IMO:

FFI - Hit
FFII - Miss
FFIII - Miss (Never Came out in North America in its original form) DS remake is a 50/50 IMO.)

FFIV - Hit
FFV - Hit
FFVI - Hit
FFVII - Hit
FFVIII - Miss
FFIX - Hit (My personal favorite)
FFX - Hit
FFX-2 - Miss
FFXII - Hit
FFXIII - Miss

And for everyone wondering, Yes i have played (And beaten) all of them.

If you have CFW you can backup your UMD's using a program called Filer.

@BubloZX: Not quite but they are similar. An Android has a biological exterior and living brain but has a mechanical skeletal structure and all mechanical organs. Basically a living machine that started out as a real person. A Cyborg is almost entirely biological with the exception of mechanical additions grafted onto the pre-existing body. an example of a cyborg would be Will Smiths character in I-Robot because of the hydraulic arm. A robot is entirely mechanical.

@izumo_lee: Did you even watch the video? The original concept art for the game listed Poison as transgendered long before the game ever even came out or became a controversy. In order for you're argument to be valid, Capcom would have had to travel back in time to make the changes.

Android 18 is an Android, Not a robot. There is a difference. In one of the episodes she reveals that both her and 17 used to be a real people and that Dr. Gero TURNED them into androids. Cel...

I have never heard them so i can't really form an opinion but they are a "Gaming headset" and Astro isn't an audio company so i wouldn't expect much.

For just gaming they would probably be fine but for music listening they would most likely be severely lacking.

I agree Audio Technica is another good one. Best headphones i have heard under about $300 are the Shure SRH-840s.

Finally someone who knows what they are talking about.
I keep seeing articles recommending "surround" headphones and little tinker toys they try to pass off as speakers, from companies such as Logitech and Razor. Honestly they should just stick to making keyboards and mice. The know nothing of audio gear and it is plainly evident when anyone who actually does know anything listens to their products.

Clearly, No video game store employee is that stu... err nevermind. Even for a placeholder that is unusually high. Typically a placeholder for a game is around $100-150.
