2.1: This is true.

If anything, Microsoft wasn't a "huge" proponent of HD-DVD. If anything at all, they were probably being paid to support it, so it doesn't come at a loss at all to them. Whatever money they may have put in is pennies compared to the money they are making now on the 360, PC, and Peripheral (Mobile PC, etc) fronts.

I don't think so either, but I know the last battle will be something so epic, it will be revered for time to come.

Imagine fighting the last Metal Gear, and it was called: Metal Gear Solid. Or something like that. So many possibilities...

I have several legitimate reasons for approving this article.

1. This was tipsed by MK_Red, who I consider a friend and respect very much on this site.

2. I want people to see how pathetic Kotaku is, grasping at straws. "Inkling of collective doubt"? Please Kotaku, spare us.

3. The Primary reason: I respect the opinions of all users on this site. I wanted to read the comments, insights and reflections towards this subject.

Cry me a river kotaku. Sony should slap you guys in the face and never give you guys anything. You don't deserve it.

Very good for people who want to catch up.

If you're a 360 fan, and you're holding out on MGS4 coming to the box. Watch this video to understand what the series is about, and you're essentially caught up at a very basic level.

Edit: I'm not stealth trolling the PS3, or MGS4's exclusivity. I find the story incredibly deep and interesting and I don't think it's wrong at all to maybe nudge someone who doesn't know what it's about to take a look. If you think it's st...

Sigh...If you guys only knew what goes on behind the scenes with this game.

In the time that I played it, there was so much swearing, and the game was so racist. You're killing Somalis, Asians, and Arabs, all with stereotypical lines, and stereotypical behaviours (Somalians jump out of cover and fire blindly at the sky screaming like savages, the arabs have suicide bombers who yell "ALLAH!!".

And there's so much needless swearing in the dialog, it all f...

This is certainly odd. I don't go to the Playstation site, but I saw it today and saw the giant HAZE banner.

Very weird, it's certainly plausible, but if it's true, Sony needs to pick up the advertising. If Free Radical is making this game exclusively for PS3, it's a gift, and Sony should show third parties they're willing to push third party games. If it flops because of Sony's inability to act, I doubt third parties will care to ever offer a exclusivity to Sony's platform.

Damn, I thought Devil May Cry 4 was coming out this month...When did it get delayed? What's the new date?

Edit: My bad, it's still coming out in January. Whew...

I'm getting that, and I have my eye on Dark Sector, but be aware my friends, my internal contacts are telling me the game is turning out to be a big ball of meh.

(And please don't question my credibility, I say this to all the newcomers I see here, I've been here a long time, and my conta...

Every single thing written sounds possible and well within the realm of possibility in terms of likely it is to occur.

So much fighting :P

It's as if no one expected these numbers.............

Regardless, I blame Sony's crap PR and Marketing. The system is great, it has no reason to be selling so badly.

The Wii? Well...Good for it, until good games start getting downgraded and going Wii exclusive, I have no reason to get mad.

The 360: It did everything right this year. You go Xbox! You reap what you sew. Good Games, Good Price, Good Marketing.

Sony did this with Rumble, Microsoft is going to do it with Motion Sensing.

This is an example of not "copying", but rather, how competition is good for consumers.

If the companies have to keep 1-upping each other, we as consummers, will benfit from better products.

Try to keep fan wars to a minimum.

I'm not modest.

PS3 connected to a Harman/Kardon AVR 247 with 7 speakers via HDMI 1.3 passthrough to a 72' 1080p Toshiba.

Sadly: My speakers suck, and I haven't had the money to buy a subwoofer yet. However, that's why I'm going to work, to pay for my books and tuition, and I save a sliver to slowly afford the next component in my setup. My next 2 buys: Subwoofer, and a nice JBL center speaker.

No matter what, this game will sell. Everyone agrees.
