I agree Omega
but remember the sackboys will try to discredit the mag. if the reviews do not adjust to their unconditional love to Sony.
That said, I will reserve my judgment of the game until i read other reviews and play it for myself. If most reviews suck then it is a rental first, but if the reviews turn (which has happened before, see Last Remnant) then it will be a purchase for sure.
I do hope the game is good, becasue I love Factor 5. But ...
i am definitely considering buying a Playstation 3 because of this game. However, i am not a fanboy so i do not know if you were interested in my answer.
the only thing holding me back is the price of the system. I am still hopeful they will lower it.
and save the it is a better value bull =. I do not care for bluray and wifi.
very misleading title by the way. In this article they are suggesting that Ms could also be foced to cut down costs due to the economic crisis.
on topic, it would not surprise me that MS will also feel the pain of the economic crisis. Thnkfuly for Ms they are in a better price range this generation.
I agree with the article. It basically states my opinion on the matter. Sony is a great product, but it is getting beat (at this moment) by the competition due to its price. But again, this is just 2008, if there is a price cut, the future looks bright for Sony.
A price cut and KZ2 could really push the hardware in 2009, and give MS a run for its money, if not beat MS flat out.
To all the Sony sackboys:
Let me guess another journalist paid by MS. Lets her...
guys relax
i am not trying to hate on the game. I am the first to admit that it looks amazing. My comment as to gameplay stems from the fact that i have not played it and guerilla has not release an AAA game yet.
further, kz2 as not been release, so stop comparing it to games that have been released.

o god
stop with the everyone is against Sony nonsense. It is getting old.
that said, the graphics look amazing. I have to give strong props to Guerilla and Sony for pulling of this amazing looking game.
now, and i am not hating, lets hope the gamepley follows suit. Graphics are nothing without gameplay. Also guerilla is not a proven Developer. However, from the looks of the beta the gameplay seems to be fine, so day one purchase for me (if i ...
You know people are making a big deal about the alleged lack of exclusive software for the 360.
this is exactly what they said in december 2007, and look what happened.
Further, i think this is a myth. Lets see:
Halo Wars
Halo Recon
Expansions for Fallout and Grand Theft 4
Ninja Blade
Star Ocean (perhaps not exclusive for ever, but for plenty of time so it makes the list)
Possibly Alan Wake
Possibly Conviction

@blacktar
It is true that history favors Sony in this matter. The company kept the machines alive for a long time. They do deserve credit for that.
All i am saying is that just because sony says it or it was done before it garantees it will happen again. Fanboys (not suggesting u r one by the way) tend to use this argument as fact. But the fact is that if it is not profitable and/or commercially biable to keep the system on the market they will not keep it period...
the drivel is outstanding.
So the media is against Sony? MS paid everybody, including CNN. WOW.
and how are u (and the rest of the Sony defense force) so sure that Playstation will last longer. just because the hardware is more advance? the xbox had more advance hardware than the Playstation 2, yet the Playstation 2 lasted longer. this future proof theory that the Sony Defense Force throws around like if it were a fact is a bit flaky.
the fact i...
hater
To the people that give so much respect to Sony because "they are not mentioning the competition in their press releases" let me tell u a little something.
IT IS BECAUSE THEY ARE LOOSING TO IT!!!!
If they were first or second they would not stop talking about it . so don't come here saying that Sony is any better than MS... they are both businesses period. they will both say and do whatever it takes to make money.
do not let the fanboy...
I remember how people dumped all over Ms for the stupid christmas lag. But of course now it is perfectly understandable. Sony should get a pass.
I truly think this is not a real problem . With so many users it is expected. Just make sure u apply the same reasonable standads both ways.
very true my friend competition is good for gaming as proven by the last two years when there has been true competition in hardcore consoles.
also better exlcusives in 2009? that is just an opinion. I would correct it and say more exclusives, but that could also be wrong since MS has not announced the complete line up. also, just becasue a company announces that a game will be released next year, doe snot mean that it will. We all know that developers could postpone the relea...
please show evidence that MS paid Namco for Tekken.
the fact that Ms has a huge install base is not a good enough reason to expand namco's market?
Take off the fanboy goggles. This is a business. It as simple as that.
you think that developers make games for Sony for free! WOW
can someone please explain why they put the 360 controller picture next to an article that has nothing to do with that controller. this is very misleading, and problably a very cheap jab by an overzelous Playstation fan.
I do not think is is necesary.
be gamers not haters
peace.
o o
no skills needed?
this raises some flags.
I am not judging the game mind u. but if this is another point and click adventure then i'll probably pass. Innovation? not so sure.
nevertheless the game still has amazing graphics
I read in 1up.com just now that 16,000 employees represent only 5% of Sony workforce. So relax with the doom and gloom predictions.
that said. I would be more concerned with the Playstation 3 price tag. We could argue till we die if the price tag is justified. the real issue here is that with this economy most consumers (not gamers like us) might find it hard to justify the expense. thus the Playstation 3 could have a tuff time in 09 regardless of all the great upcoming ex...
Lets see what happens, this is could be nothing mayor, but i do think it will decrease the chances of a price cut and or the announcement of a new Playstation 3 model (my fingers are still crossed lol)
I do respect the fact that Sony put so much new tech on the Playstation 3, but with the price tag it has, in this economy ... i am sure a fue excecutives at Sony are very worried right now.
If the economy keeps getting hit then Sony could stand to loose a lot of gr...
I agree
this is great news for Epic and Ms.
But there is no need to hate on insomniac and Sony. I wish we could have insomniac developing games for MS.
anyways good news for gamers since we can play both games(if u can afford a Playstation3)
I agree. i do not know why they approve this. It is criticizing Blue-ray, thus it is against Sony. We cannot have articles against Sony in N4G. that is blasphemy
Do not worry, i am sure the Sony Defense Force and sackboys alike will come to the rescue of Sony. Some day we will prevail and we will have absolutely no negative news about Sony, only about the 360 and the WII.
besides we all know that MS pays every single journalist except those who write positiv...
