Killzone wouldn't have an audience if not for Halo. And we'd all we playing Doom and Quake since "Combat Evolved" would've never happened.
Respect the Halo.
GT owes the Forza franchise a lot this gen, since Turn 10 practiccally had to teach Polyfony what online is all about. Yes, Forza MS 2 was a class in NEXT GEN online.
No surprise there I guess :\ Xbox Live continues to be what PSN wishes it were.
It's flattering that GT fans need to defend themselves against Forza. It's not like you guys were going buy it anyway, and it's not like you can make me buy GT.
For the record though, Polyfony got spanked this gen. Forza MS is a few laps ahead of GT and keeps that lead while Polyfony trips on its own shoes with those release dates. Also, GT's formula worked in 1998...but it's 2009 people. If the game's online offering isn't comparable to Forza MS 2 then it's not a next gen game. ...
It won't be Mass Effect 2 since it's coming out next year. The article is speculating about this year.
If it's talking about this year, then it's not ME 2. It could be the original ME though, which actually would be nice. PS3 fans should be warned though: MGS4 will suddenly seem so archaic after you've played ME.
but DAMN you're so right :P i can already see that design being disavowed and locked in a vault somewhere.
I once joked that in the next Xbox they've have a very reassuring and calm blue ring that pulsates and every so often the console calls you "master" so as to remain on your good side :P
Which reminds me...damn I miss my old girlfriend Samantha. Boy, when she put that collar on she was a whole different lady...I've said too much.
I still have Chaos Theory on my PC...the last moments of Fisher wearing that awesome sneaking suit. Man did he look badass!
Well the beginning of Double Agent has him in the suit as well, but after that it's just...unattractive. But SC:DA is actually still my favorite, since they did it very well how you had to be either good or bad. And the gameplay was still stealthy.
I'm still glad that they are moving on with Fisher and that they've evolved the gameplay, imho THA...
Resident Evil can be beaten in 2.5hrs or less and has received many accolades, so what's your point? Metal Gear Solid was also easily beaten in under 6 hrs for the average gamer, so again what's your point?
You want longer games? Go play some rpgs, let OUR actions games be exactly as they should be.
It's not going to be enjoyable at 9FPS :\
And I'm not gonna drop $$$ on quad Radeon 4870x2s and a Phenom II x4 940 3.2GHz cpu just to run THIS game. I'm sure my specs there are WAY beyond what you'll probably need to run this game on the PC, but still who wants to build a $500 barebones system anyway??? You'll have to upgrade it too, eventually.
Dude, what I've seen so far has amazed me. It's not going to be an easy game to pass up on. All the good hard work on this game SHOWS, and they've been especially concerned with GAMEPLAY. That's something important right there. That Ubisoft has trusted its staff to take their 4-games-solid gameplay and CHANGE IT! That takes MAJOR confidence to start rewriting things.
Think of RE4's impact on the series as a whole. Nothing was the same after that, and the changes they brought to t...
Alan Wake? He's off to win GotY 2010, so Fisher gets all the glory this year.
Good thing too, since this solid showing should put some balls in devs pants to come out from hiding and bring even MORE to Xbox 360 in the coming year.
Good time to be an Xbox 360 owner!
It's spelled Jizz, gee whiz.
Chrome OS will need to have codec support for various media types, and most likely it won't have immediate support for proprietary players and DRM protected media formats (iTunes, Zune Player, etc) as well as their associated portable media devices (iPod, iPhone, Zune, etc).
There are lots of open source codec packages and alternatives (like OOG Vorbis, AC3 codecs, etc), but this is just an example of what lies ahead. It's fine if you don't mind starting with fresh new files and ...
Or RRoD article. Yeah, I know it's sad. It'll end when everybody stops taking things so personal and get back to reporting news that's pertinent and worth reading.
Um...did you enter a legally binding contract to support and patronize something you don't like? If so, how did it happen?
You could instead just state your OPINION, and stop trying to insult Windows or its users.
OEMs like Dell, Gateway, HP, Toshiba, and Sony all prefer Windows on their machines. A few offer linux alternatives (HP' Mini netbook runs its own linux based OS) and usually are lower priced than Windows machines...but only by around $50 :\
Bu...
A penguin. I have nothing against Linux users, but they seem to have so much against Microsoft. We can agree to disagree, you can't change my opinion regardless. It's not that I don't like Linux, it's that I like Windows better.
If you disagree it won't mean much other than that you disagree, thanks but I've already bought my preorder of Windows 7.
but you see what you just did there as well, you came with reasons NOT to pay for Xbox Live's innovations.
let's go a bit further, let's say that if i wanted a memory stick reader i'd just use the one on my pc. or that bluetooth is just a fancy wifi name, and that 802.11b/g is just fine. i could even say that wifi is just fancy networking and instead prefer ethernet. or that sixaxis is just a fancy controller.
what you don't understand is that most innovations usuall...
Nobody HATES psn cuz it's free, we can all agree that xbl should be free as well. But if price is the issue why isn't PS3 cheaper? It launched at $600 which was a big price to pay back then.
Did you know that if you boot up Burnout Paradise on a silver account, if you try to load up a Burnout Party you'll be prompted for a special $39.99 12 month XBL deal. There are several other games that I've seen it load that offer up on as well.
And besides, those who complain a...
You said standard SATA. Wrong, you need a 2.5" laptop SATA drive :\ People shouldn't talk when they don't have all the facts.
edit: i like you rodz34 whatever, i think you'll live today :)
