Although you make good points, the problem I have with you guys is that you are only willing Microsoft in this light. You can't bring your minds to judge Sony in this way if your lives depended on it.
snp - " MS gave away x360s at Amazon (or bundled 5 games with it's SKUs)" I'm not going to call you a lie or anything like that, but I can't recall Microsoft bundling 5 games with the 360 unless you're talking about the arcade games that came with the arcade bundle?
...
People said the 360 beat the PS3 in November because of MS banning some consoles, and people bought a new console. Now people are saying that the 360 managed to hold their own in December against the PS3 once again due to banned consoles. My question is, why is it that whenever the PS3 does well it 2 thumbs up, but when the 360 does well, there is alway some type of BS excuse attached to it.
I think both Sony and MS did well, however the same people that said the 360 was aide...
Haha, the law firm that is trying to get people to sign up is just trying to line their own pockets. I'm sure that if they won the case the modders would get 4 dollars a piece and the law firm would pocket millions.
Additionally, I wonder how much defense would this law firm provide these people if MS called in the FBI and their houses were raided for illegal games. Then the game publishers would be wanting a piece of them. I think I'd just cut my losses and move on.
It was a metaphor, pull the metaphor from the comment and use your sub-highschool education to try and understand the point. The comment is based on human behavior not that of a corporation trying to make money.
It's amazing how people can take things in the literal sense when it comes to Microsoft and somehow allow their moral standards to be lowered based on who the victim is, rather than looking the point that piracy should be punished.
Anyone modding thei...
I totally see where you are coming from. I work in a correctional facility, and we chat with the inmates all the time. Most of them hate the cops, but very few of them are pissed at they people that got them arrested.
Although there are some of the sicker ones that feel you should allow them to take your stuff, and are mad at the people that had them arrested. But I too think these people are stupid for thinking that way. I mean how can you hit a person in the head with a b...
Fail!
I HATE NETFLIX, WHO NEEDS NETFLIX, NETFLIX SUCKS, um what, when, really yippee I love netflix, netflix is awesome. Wow we now have netflix, bluray. Blah, blah, blah.
Some of you people can be as wishy washy as a 13 year old little girl. Hate it when you don't have it love it when you do. Grow up people, the PS3 having Netflix is good, and it is not crippling MS in any way. Additionally, this article reads as if since netflix was added to XBL you have to pay 50 bucks. XBL ...
You're rigth D4R...STFU, there's already enough PS3 Fanboys poluting this thread right HolyOrangeCows.
There is no doubt that this was a great game, but Sessler was being just a little bit too much of a drama queen in that soap box...I though he was going to spooge all over the camera...lol
That video was nice, Drake has to be the luckiest SOB I've ever seen..lol
I really didn't see anything in the video that I would consider a spoiler. As soon as he go ready to fight someone the video went out.
"BTW, If I recall, Microsoft started the $60-priced game standard with the X360."
As I recall, nintendo didn't adapt the $60 standard. And Sony didn't have to, yet they did.
haha, so what's your point.
Someone did a article a while back stating that PS3 users are typically 28 year old, intelligent, successful males? Why do said 28 year old successful males need to constantly b!tch and whine about 60 bucks for ODST (When they don't own a...
Dude, you're such a hypocrit. Halo ODST is a new campaign, had a new multiplayer mode, and also includes all the halo map.
Some how you can't see that yet you can easily see the added value of GT5 and GT5P, even though GT5 hasn't released yet and you really don't know what you will be getting.
Way to pad the stats to make your BS comment seem stronger.
First off, you can't add 100 of XBL to it, there are people with XBL that don't even own Halo, Most of the people that have Halo already had XBL. Additionally, the map packs are optional. If you didn't want the map packs you didn't have to buy them. I didn't.
Additionally, no one is having their arms twisted to buy ODST, this is also optional. If you feel that ODST is not worth the money because yo...
Jealousy in a really dangerous emotion.
3 PS3 fanboys trolling in a 360 thread having a secondary conversation about 360 fans being FPS addicts. But only because the best PS3 shooter (KZ2) underperformed because of their own lack of desire to buy games.
You guys want free everything, damn you don't have to pay for online, the least thing you can do is support your devs and buy a game or two. so ironic.
@10 - you don't own a 360, but nice try though.
To all the ODST haters, that are not even 360 owners. Why the hell do you even care what 360 fans spend their money on? I mean really, you hate 360 fans to the core, yet you're concerned about their money. Bottom line is, you don't really give a damn about the cost of ODST, you just need something to b!tch about.
Lucky for you ODST didn't cost only 30 bucks because if it did you'd be b!tching because it sold 3.5 million on launch day. Just stop whining, wait for Uncharted 2...
You are right, so let's just say to this point GT5 is simply vaporware. GTHD is GT5 in an earlier stage, GTP is a paid demo of GT5 in a more advanced stage than GTHD. And had Forza not come out GT5 would probably already be out, but as I said earlier Forza keep making GT go back to the drawing board. (i.e damage)
Say what you will, but GT5 was been in development way too long.
Hell this game has been in development since 2004 and it's almost 2010 now.
You were doing so well and then in the end you went fanboy. That's too bad. I agree Japanese developers do maintain a sense of respect for their competition. And in the west, they do also, they just talk more in the west as they also do in europe. But, this is a cultural difference, therefore you can't really use it as a comparison. Gamers in the west like shooters while gamers in Japan like RPG, neither should be put down because of what they do as a culture.
The concept ...
What other exclusive has sold 400,000 copies in week 1 when you don't include the launch date. Hell MSG4 the best selling PS3 game sold 740K(US) from 06/1/08 - 07/5/08. Yet you wanna try and act as if 400,000 in 4 days not including the launch day is something to thumb your nose at. You were just kidding right?
Stop trying to downplay ODST sales, you are starting to smell like a fangirl.
@Reviewarearepolitics...(Abov e) - it doesn't matter if the game was full...
So much stupid hate, and for no other reason the simple jealousy. It's a 360 classic, it wasn't meant to be news for you PS3 fanboys.
Oh, EpicGamer...Guess what, MP is actually part of the game, and from your gamer tag you sure did put a LOT of time in on a game that you conside to be overrated and overhyped. The other two guys are simply haters that has their head too far embedded in the hate game to give halo a compliment.
Either way, in the grand skeme of th...
