I might be a faithful 360 gamer, but I'm also a faithful anime fan.
And you don't watch English dubs. Period. I'll play this on my PS3.
It's clear people will set their own criteria for a good game so they can twist and squirm their way into whatever their religious-faith fanboyism tells them to believe.
I never saw how a game being overrated was supposed to diminish the experience of people who didn't even play it in the first place. If you don't like it, it's not like anyone is forcing you to play it.
But at the same time, the fact that people like it is the self-evident proof. It's a good game s...
... you must be using some other motion controls because the sixaxis controls are very much an after thought. Every time I see something with motion control, the first thing I do is turn it off. Wii did it right, by making it an integral gimmick, whereas PS3 makes it a purely tacked on feature.
Now, I like the simple flourishes like the loading screens for Killzone 2, but I hate using it for actual game play.
"doesn't really do all that well and only a handful of people support it"
Sounds like a great reason not to do it to me. I think the point of not following the leader is that the leader could drag you through a bad business decision that's all wrong for your company and position.
So, will we get picture frames and TV's yet?
@Narutone66: Except they charge for clothes. Even Microsoft hasn't done that yet. There's a surprise.
Only two games I would support pushing to 1 million: Brawl and Galaxy. The rest is either casual fluff or poorly executed hardcore wannabes, specifically Metroid Prime 3.
I hate to say it, but it's sales DO justify Wii's position as number one. You can't cite some self-evident quality of PS3 and 360 games over Wii. The people buying the games clearly don't care.
Now, what we as hardcore gamers need to do is stop acting like fanboys and realize Microsoft and Sony are on the same side. Because if we don't, Nintendo is going to damage the industry irreparably.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
I'm still amazed how people treat Microsoft. No matter what, they can't please some people.
* They make a console; they are an affront to the true crown princes of gaming.
* They make a defective console; they get ridiculed, as they should.
* They replace millions of consoles like they should; they get no credit for doing the right thing.
Ahem...
The anti-trust cases are a sham... a circus rather than justice in court. If anyone cared to actually look into what a monopoly is, they would realize that you can't just go around calling companies you don't like monopolies.
Let's see... company replaces millions of broken 360's at great expense to themselves, subsidizing the hardware costs two, three, four times over on average.
Sounds like pretty awesome customer service to me. Your distrust of Microsoft is clouding your judgement. I think people should be more appreciative that Microsoft proactively replaced these consoles without having a court tell them to do it. That's the free market at its best.
What's wrong with a little cross promotion? Why not Don "Prius" Flamenco?
Yes, that was a gay joke...
MmaFanQc shouldn't throw stones...
You can't reason with hysterical, snarky children.
You can't explain to them that for the eight items in the pack, you pay $2.50 per item.
Likewise, you can't explain to them that Killzone 2 charged $3 per map in their recent content pack.
They won't recognize that Sony charged them MORE than MIRCOSOFT. Just like good little Sony droids, it "does not compute"...
Dear god, it's SEVEN maps + a new chapter for the story. If you make that an even 8 items, that $2.50 per item. That's LESS than the $3 per map you paid for Killzone 2 maps just the other day.
So, read all about it! Sony rapes your wallet worse!
Bull-f'ing-sh*t. And Bull-f'ing-sh*t disagrees. You disagree with the straight numbers, you fail. The price is fair in the case of the DC pack, but it's a phenomenal value as the compilation. Are you really doing to b*...
@Kigmal: Quick summary.
For every three-choice question the One gets right, he/she eliminates members of the 100 who got it wrong. Player scores for every one of the 100 eliminated.
The One has three "helps", Poll the Mob (see per-answer statistics), Trust the Mob (automatically choose the majority answer), or Ask the Mob (ask two of the 100, one who got it right and one who got it wrong).
The One can choose to quit the game and take winnings...
I expect people will win pocket change in points... but to increase your chances of being the Mob or the One, you have to play during extended play sessions. So, really, you spend a lot of time for relatively little monetary reward.
However, the real prize is enough to make things interesting and fun. You don't go on the show to change your life. You go to play a game and have fun. And in that regard, I look forward to it.
So, he's probably not going to get the job... but he will get Recon armor.
Bestest FPS Evar?
...failure confirmed.
Wow. I mean, the game looks alright, but I don't see anything groundbreaking about it. Of course it could be like Crackdown and be an unexpected hit... except everyone already expects it.
I'm really looking forward to Prototype. I like my power-trippy experiences, and Infamous always looked... awkward to me.
More maps for this game! Honestly, the level design is genius. My hats off to the designers.
