I thought it was 800 free points... not to mention Gamestop gives you an extra 1 month free gold membership to live.
How much money does Microsoft need to loose (50 million + ~$10 gamer pts for each copy + ~$8 for one moth gold live for each copy = a lot of money to recoup) to sell a few more 360 consoles. A majority of people who own 360 will already be buying GTA4, which means all those marketing schemes toward acquiring new customers is gonna cost MS some big bucks just to sell a ...

It's human nature, everyone is addicted to something whether is be good or bad for society and the individual. Many are addicted to a wide array of addictions; to social networking, TV, others the internet, and some cross country running.

Might as well come out with Heroin Hero

Sounds right, Insomniac has been unofficial partners with Naughty Dog for years. The Jakk game engine (for the PS2) was developed by Naughty Dog and licensed to Insomniac for the Ratchet and Clank series on the PS2. If I remember properly they also collaborated together on the PSone with Spyro and Crash Bandicoot. They still are working together somewhat today but both developers have proprietary game engines for the PS3, they mainly give each other guidance in PS3 development.

What about CoD5? Every year since the 360 came out a CoD has been released.

Idiotic, the video game industry has fluctuated up and down years, but sales are higher now than they have ever been in the industry. Last year was a big year for 360 and Wii, but meh for the PS3. If Sony can deliver blockbuster sales of their up and coming AAA titles this fall than I think this financial analysis's opinion a bunch of BS. Why do they ignore MGS4 one of the biggest video games to come out this year, along with Halo Wars/Gears2/GH4.
How can sales have peaked this short in...

Echochrome, nice I see that it has a US release in May not just Europe. Sev1512 do you know if the demo for echochrome is the PS3 and PSP demos or is it just PS3 demo (the Japanese store has both). Have you tried remote play with Echochrome, I am curious if it's compatible. How did you get a copy of Echochrome, that doesn't look like the demo in your blog (I have the Japanese demo).

@Tordavis
"But you've never played GTAIV on a Playstation before. So why buy it for the PS3? I keep seeing people post that but they don't make sense of it. Is it the DS3 controller you like or do you like inserting GTA games into consoles that are black and have the Playstation logo on them?"

Huh? GTA has been a Sony game since inception, so it makes since that people want the sixaxis/DS3 for GTA4. I love the 360 wireless, but as most people say it's better for F...

Paying for Live doesn't matter huh? That 12+1 membership that you (and I have, I bought it for $38) costs $50 thats $10 less than buying a copy of GTA4. I'm sure the arguments against paying for Live is the fact you can practically buy another game by just paying the Live fee. You are telling me you like having to pay $50 every 12/13 months (the new live cards are only 12 months, 13 month cards are gone) when you can get the same level of service for free from other platforms. If were arguing...

Dude this article is for sure 360 fanboy written. Hey what can I say I own both consoles, Sony is a hardware manufacturing company and Microsoft is a software company. Hence why the 360 has such a fleshed out software cataloge and OS (the blades system and in game messaging) and the hardware is melting down (RROD and power supplies) b/c Microsoft is a software company first. Sony has always been hardware oriented first, just look at all their non gaming product lines, hence why they could tak...

Still gonna buy it, but I see where they are coming from. I played Gears the other day and it has become old, I will admit. The tech demo for Gears 2 / UE3 at GDC was interesting but the whole "crap load of npc's on screen at once" really isn't that spectacular anymore, Resistance did it when Gears originally came out in 06'. I have seen pictures of Gears 1 and 2 screen shots of multiplayer levels side by side, the Gears 2 shots are ridiculously more detailed than the original game....

The worst article on N4G I have ever read, it's primarily based on opinion, and poorly defended opinions at that.

The whole controller rant is the most idiotic things I have ever heard from a hardcore gamer, especially since they don't mention that the Play and charge kit costs and extra ~$20. Since when is the 360 wireless the preferred method of control for GTA, it's been a Playstation game since inception (not counting GTA 2 on DC, GBA ones don't count).

Why does...

"HDMI 1.3a capable of bitstreaming Dolby-HD MA and Dolby TrueHD (PS3 can't)"

Wrong dude, PS3 supports Dolby True HD, you mean Bit stream True HD

From Blu-ray.com's player specifications section:

"Dolby TrueHD Yes
Dolby TrueHD (bitstream) No"

Two exceptions, Golden Eye and Spiderman 2, except Golden Eye came out 2-3 years after the movie.

Did you buy all the Xmen movie games too, those were crap (I'm not talking about Ultimate Alliance or Legends, they are not movie related).

Demo was meh, the only really good aspect of the game is that it ran at 60fps. Controls were terrible (why are flight controls not defaulted at invert Y axis, like real flight controls), Graphics are ok they are NOT open world, game play was terrible, and the aiming system is completely broken. I was looking forward to this game but not anymore.

Fu*king amazing movie, just watched it last night. Daniel Day Lewis is amazing in that movie. There will be blood when Eli comes to town.
