MultiConsoleGamer, wanna bet half of Microsoft's holidays sales were repeat customers?
I'll bet you a 12 pack of beer and a greasy pizza that the "majority" of 360 sales lifetime are "repeats" ranging from 1) basic replacements 2) upgraded to limited editions 3) upgraded to newer hardware 4) replacements of limited editions and newer hardware.
Ever wonder why 3rd party 360 game sales are never "millions" more like the...
Looks like the FREE download of Black with first print copies sure has helped.
WiiU it is then.
Everybody that bought a 360 during it's first year will buy a WiiU
Sure everybody knows there was the billion dollar RROD fix, but what about the money Microsoft spent to get GTA out of exclusivity (that was at least 50 million...rumors say closer to 100) and other deals like those. Then there's the advertising. I remember hearing $500 million advertising budget numbers for Kinect alone. Truth is in reality XBOX isn't making money like people are led to believe because it's costing them an absolute fortune to try and portray the XBOX as a succ...
I had more fun with Duke Nukem Forever than with RAGE
$299 for the Playstation 3D TV is pretty good, and I can't wait to buy one, but I need it to be even cheaper...like 250 to be able to.
It will probably take place in the same buildings, with the identical dungeons and everything.
Quite honestly I don't think I can think of a game that could obviously use a larger disc so maybe all the towns don't have to re-use the same stuff
WiiU is getting my dollars.
The power difference between WiiU and the next Playstations and XBOXes isn't going to be noteworthy regardless of what fanboys think, and therefore I'll go WiiU and PS4 later since WiiU is going to have major 3rd party support and between Nintendo and Sony I'll have enough first party exclusives to game on.
I don't see Microsoft as a viable option since games are going to be developed on WiiU first and then ported over to the other...
And FIFA is on the PSN in Europe as a Full game offering so yeah
Brink was better than RAGE
....
Just sayin'
I won't go as far as to say it sucks, but after buying it on PSN and playing it for a little while I regret it.
I would have preferred a hand drawn style HD remake of the first 2 games from PS1.
PS3 still has a bunch of games due out.
DUST 514 for example needs players to stick around to make any money since it's a free MMO shooter.
If they knew there was going to be a new console they wouldn't be making it or would have stopped once they heard.
Seriously Nintendo and Microsoft are going to make the jump sooner than Sony.
Sony can always entice new buyers and players with its obscene ammount of studios so there's always going to be excl...
I definetely prefer the clear cases when the game has printing on the inside cover since dual sided covers rock, but since most publishers never use it I guess the blue is better than unused clear.
Sony should have made it a requirement for publishers to dual side the covers this gen on PS3.
My COD NOOB Guide:
Helpful hint #1 Equip the Assassin perk using the silencer on any weapon and camp to notch a few kills before those people find a way to kill you from behind.
#2 Once your favorite spot is blown, equip the Quickdraw perk and start running but keep in mind eventually you may find yourself taking the wrong paths at the wrong times and keep getting shot from behind since it's pure luck.
#3 At that point switch back to the Assassin perk and go bac...
The graphics are real Mika.
And honestly they don't look much different from that Samaritan demo EPIC ran when they said this is what they hope next gen looks like.
And the reason it's getting so much hype is because Naughty Dog has earned it.
I say go with it until they produce a stinker, but since they are so hot right now I wouldn't hold my breath thinking it will be underwhelming.
Look at the graphics =)
I'd love to be paid to sit at home and play the games while drinking a beer, just to report back once a week and give feedback on what I think.
It needed rumble.
Playing shooters or racing games just feel lifeless without it and it doesn't matter where or how they are played.
But if it had rumble and could plug into any TV, it could have changed how people think of console gaming.
Please NO.
I'm sick and tired of GOW
I agree with all of them except Call of Duty.
At this point I view COD as a sport and every year's release is a new season.
And going back to play past titles online is like playing in different leagues where there are slight differences but the game is still the same - you can play basketball in Europe and it's still the same game as playing in the NBA.
I heard I Am Alive was moved to downloadable because it was having trouble becoming a good game and buyers accept lesser quality download games since they are lesser price.
