Black people have always prefered the Playstation brand. That carried over into this generation. If you look at who's buying and playing madden its the same demographic that is buying PS3's. But when a multi plat like COD comes out you see the huge gap in 360 software sales and atttach.
Since E3 Xbox sales have blown up. That's before any of the big games have even came out. This wave started w/ 360 slim now it's building steam w/ Reach 1 week away. After that you have Fable III and Kinect right in the middle of the holiday season. Xbox brand is really having a good year. Think w/ the system redesign RRoD is finally behind them. Live offers the best online experience and there's a solid line-up of exclusives and 360 is the must buy system for multi-plats.
They used bling on almost everyone. Attachments are the last thing I worry about. Scavenger and Sleight of hand are always better choices
EA is going to lose sales because they had a beta showing everyone how inferior this game is to its competition. I don't care who you do or don't get to play as. A bad game is a bad game
I'll pay for this as long as the fee is no more than live. $50 a year is max even though I never paid that for a 12 month card. I can understand people being against this but if you're offering something good enough people will pay for it than go ahead and charge.
It's business. Demand is high so they can charge.
It has to be the very worst demo/game I have played on 360 not even just this year. I guess they were going for more well known games but this is truly bad.
I was the same way. I actually felt embarassed for the people on stage. I don't know if this or the kinectvideo was worse. The only people who looked like they should be on stage were the ESPN guys. It was the only part that wasn't corny. Even the co-op talk during the GOW3 demo was bad
Or I would jump all over this. Nice design and a fair price
MS already has a controller and games for hardcaore gamers. This is an attempt to capture more casual gamers ie the parents that play Wii. How many hardcore gamers are still out there debating over PS3 and 360 waiting on there motion controls to decide. These articles are so dumb. Yes Kinect is for kids.
They need to adress a lot of the balance issues. One Man Army, Danger Close, and Commando all need to go. Grenade Launchers have to be left out. Why in a FPS is there a weapon that is an instant kill as long as you hit w/ in 10 feet when everyone else is actually trying to tag you w/ 3-4 bullets to get a kill. The auto-aim on snipers has to be taken out, why do they auto lock as soon as you scope? kind of defeats the purpose of a 'scope'.
I have faith in Treyarch an...
Glad to see these guys found work fast. Hope this studio moves fast. Can't wait to see the new IP's they come out w. Hopefully they get a game out this gen. What a smack in the face to Activison though I'm sure they wish they were still involved w/ IW and COD.
EDIT: See a lot of people saying more IW workers should switch studios and that'd be fine but the 1 guy I don't want to see is Robert Bowling aka 402. He is such a tool bag wish he was removed from IW.
and you get a lot for free considering it's from EA but there's no fun in it sitting at a computer. If they put this on XBL or PSN it'd be amazing.
"the costs of LIVE are overbearing and add up big time in the long run"
overbearing?? It can regularly be found for $35 but even at it's MSRP of $50 a year I don't see how that can be considered overbearing. If that amount of money is way too much for you, it might be better you get a second job than spend time playing video games. I pay double that each month for my phone. 3x's that a month for car insurance. Half that in 1 trip to the movies and about that one time ...
NDA's are borderline illegal as the directly violate the US Constitution. I don't think Real Time Worlds is really policing N4G forums. The game is going to be released for sale to the public not like it's a matter of national security.
About the article. This game has been pushed back so many times I'm not even interested anymore. There is no confirmed release date yet and who knows if it will ever make it to consoles. Too many good games have been released and had sequels sin...
If only the Japanese could figure out how leap year works. It's once every four years we have a Feb 29. Funny such a small bug can cause such a huge issue. I love how they can make this sound like it's fact when their source is user e-mails.
All that for only 2 hours. I think the funny part is people really typed this into google expecting an answer.
I wasn't on live today but noticed the forums were going really slow around 4 and a lot of the gamercards weren't showing up. I'm stacked w/ HW though and need to take the gf out for v-day. I work in a kitchen and never would have been given off last night. Hopefully this is fixed fast and MS has a good answer.
The TV doesn't dictate how many FPS the game can produce. I have a 240hz Sony Bravia Z5100. For optimal gaming settings I turn off a lot of the features like motion blur and 240hz to reduce any lag. They're great features to have and helps future proof your TV but it's not of any use this generation since a lot of games struggle at 30 and very few can hold 60. But to the human eye it really makes no difference. Blu-ray movies run at 24fps so you're not really losing or gaining anything.
This guy works for MS. He gets paid very good money to make sure Xbox is successful. He drops a line in an interview and people get so worked up about it. You can read these comments and tell people aren't just trolling. For some reason they really have hate and anger in them for a company/brand that has done nothing to them.
I don't understand defending and or bashing one console with such passion. Do you get mad at your friends who drive different cars, listen to ...
