If M$ are smart they will adopt the same pricing structure as that of the Wii. It would seem as though Kinect is more of an effort to compete with the Wii than Move. As a result, Kinect will come bundled with a game or two and Kinect titles will hover around $40-50 imo. If the price is too high for either Kinect or its games, it will never take off.
Also, until I see a few more games, I'm far more impressed with Move. It strikes me as a much more hardcore focused accessor...
I agree. The value of the new 360 S is subjective for current 360 owners. Personally, I'm not sure I'm willing to trade my Jasper 360. I know I have a solid working unit and don't want to risk buying the latest and greatest for superficial reasons.
Additionally, the heat "issue," the article mentions (regarding 360 S) is worrisome to me. My unit is already very quiet and produces little heat.
Including Dead Space Extraction is what sealed the deal for me as a multiconsole owner.
I'm excited for Move. I rented DS Extraction for the Wii and wished on more than one occasion for more accurate shooting mechanics. Nevertheless, it was a great addition to the Dead Space franchise.
I wonder if Dead Space 2 will use Move? Anyone know? It would make sense to include it although I only read of Extraction using it.
I wonder if I will have to adjust the slider because of my contacts... ;-p
In all seriousness, I haven't read a bad 3DS preview until this one. Every other article seems to praise it or at least say it was alright.
I'm cautiously optimistic that the new Zelda will turn out looking much better than previewed. I've read great things about the game play. If everything "but" the graphics are complete, we might expect a little upgrade :-)
Halo Reach single player looks amazing. It looks far better than the multiplayer beta. My guess is that its "close" to 720p. No doubt Bungie will try to get as close to HD as possible. Regardless, the graphics are a step up and the frame rate will be silky smooth.
Commenting on Halo Reach as looking good doesn't distract or take away from the fact that...game "X" or Killzone 3 looks good also. Why can't both games look good? Also, it blows my mind ...
Was the M$ conference disappointing for hardcore gamers? Yes. However, I think most people missed the point of the conference: Kinetic and redesigned 360 introduction. E3 is more than one day if you didn't know...
Did everyone know Gears 3, Fable 3, Halo Reach were coming? Yes. These titles and more are bound to get more coverage by the end of E3.
I think its notable that M$ secured exclusive DLC for Cod and ESPN integration. This is exciting for sports a...
Great article. LMAO! :-)
I also question why Kratos didn't make the list.
Michael Ironside needs to be bumped up a little too...
I agree with most of the other choices. Its entirely subjective, regardless.
I also bubbled you up :-) Hope you find a job.
I hope the next Ninja Gaiden is launched simultaneously across 360 and PS3. It kind of bothered me that an upgraded NG2(Sigma 2) came out less than a year later. Its almost as if Tecmo is tricking multiconsole owners of buying the same game twice! :-p I'm guilty of re-buying Ninja Gaiden Black for the Xbox, however the first iteration is just better imo. I ALMOST bought Sigma 2 but couldn't justify a $60 purchase for an upgrade. Deep down the game was too much the same. I still might ...
Killzone 2 was a good game and all but it didn't sell all that well. Killzone 3 is arguable not important as far as exclusives go for Sony's bottom line.
Islam isn't a race. Arab is a race. All Muslims are not Arab.
Mac is virus free? Hmm...that doesn't sound right. If Macs ever have greater than 10% market share let me know. Perhaps we can talk about viruses then. I'm just waiting for the virus free myth to disappear. There is nothing about Macs, software wise that makes them any less prone to viruses.
Macs offer a customizable experience? Since when? Restrictive user experience comes to mind. Steve Jobs wants to control your Mac experience just like any other Apple product.
Portal is available to everyone for free right now. Not just Macs. If you don't believe me, boot up Steam right now. Its free until the 24th of this month.
Your opinion has no basis in reality. Consider the fact that your outraged over a .5 difference in review score and the frame rate is hideous. I'm not sure I understand your angst.
Also, it is completely ridiculous to say that 360 is on its last leg. Games such as Brink, Crysis 2 and Rage are all games that push what the 360 and gaming can do. There are plenty of games coming out for the 360 and saying otherwise is not only wrong but pointless.
You talk ...
I'm glad that Alan Wake, RDR, and Super Mario Galaxy 2 received good reviews.
I was interested in Mod Nation but have read too many articles about long load times, which is disappointing to say the least. I feel that Mod Nation is a "sequel" to Mario Kart Wii in many respects. I hope a patch decreases this problem (pun intended) as it detracts from the pick up and play game play that would compel me to purchase it :-p
It's pathetic that so many people are harping about the score. Last time I checked 9/10 was a great game. 5 years in development doesn't guarantee the game will be perfect. Also, Heavy Rain is a completely different game...why the comparisons?
Hey! Thats my list of favorites! :-)
I also wouldn't mind it if Grandia 2 was re-released. I remember being sick with the flu and playing (all 40 hours of it) to completion...and good health :-p
Remember when GTAIV came out and no one cared that the PS3 version was sub-HD while the 360 version was 720 p? Each version looked great and some (abeit the majority of N4G) argued the PS3 version was superior.
Resolution doesn't matter so long as the game runs and looks good. I doubt anyones going to put a magnifying glass up to their tv after they buy/rent this game.
The pics look great.
Why is the same author whom had bad experiences with the 3DS back to write more crap about it? If the 3D effect didn't work for him he seems hardly qualified to write about the 3DS and repeat articles. By now its common knowledge that 3D isn't for everyone...time to move on.
Comparisons to the iphone/itouch are also unwarranted. Sure, the 3DS will rely on physical media, however, most people see that as a good thing, and not bad as the article implies. Additionally, N...
