It said my copy of paradise shipped today but my arrival date is still wednesday. Who knows, maybe it will come tomorrow. I guess you could say amazon kind of broke the date to.
as in Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
Maybe you should learn how to spell before you spout your console war propaganda.
BTW, it's irrelevant if you like Fox news or not, just be happy that any mainstream media outlet is reporting positive stories about gaming. Hopefully when we all have kids gaming will be respected entertainment medium alongside music and movies and we can tell stories about crazy Jack Thompson and all the crazies that...
So what if he is an actor? Is it a crime to be a gamer and also an actor?
What if Seth Green (who is an avid gamer and also receives a paycheck from Fox for Family Guy) went on Fox news with the same story?
WHAT WOULD BE THE DIFFERENCE?! NOTHING!
You guys should all be happy that any major news outlet is doing a story about gaming that doesn't involve BLAMING VIOLENT VIDEOGAMES FOR ALL THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS!
As LoneWolf points out, you don't send the retail box into MS! When I sent my 360 in for repair I did not even leave the faceplate on. Don't send anything in for repair expecting to get it back exactly the same, they are REPAIRING it! How do the INQ people even know that there wasn't something wrong with their disc drive? If they knew so much why didn't they repair it themselves?
This is someone nitpicking about the FREE repair service when they caused most of the problems th...
Seriously though, I know it's fun to enlist in the fight to win the console wars but come on! I ended the bloodshed in my own household by using a controversial tactic known as "saving up my money by resisting a few games and working more hours to buy both systems and then shutting the hell up."
Both MS and Sony have made many boneheaded and arrogant decisions, but at the end of the day who gives a crap? I just want great games and good systems to play them on. Instea...
which one is better PS3 or 360. The big story is that a well know website knowingly and purposefully withheld/censored information that would influence gamers choice of game and platform. What purpose do videogame reviews serve if not to inform consumers on the merits of the game and whether or not it is worth a purchase and for what platform?!
Forget the console wars BS and realize that this incident seriously harms IGN's integrity as a impartial reviews/news source!
I love the show but this was the most random, uninformed use of gaming in a show I have seen in a long time. Why didn't they just use atari pac man sound effects to really emphasize the point that the writers don't even pay attention to what their own kids are probably playing?!
Pride come before a fall, hopefully Sony has wised up and started to adopt a more humble attitude towards consumers and developers. I don't really care about the format war, I am just content to sit back and see who wins so that I know which format player to buy in 2-3 years when I give a crap.
I understand being passionate but its just a piece of consumer electronics, not your identity! Take out your aggression in a Halo deathmatch or at the gym, not on other lovers of all things tech.
Motorcycles, Planes and dual-wielding (can't remember if that was in the first)! I loved the first one even though the "gangsta" theme was so lame and tired, the gameplay and freedom overcame the other faults.
I have skated for almost 15 years and this is the closest a game has ever come to the real experience of skateboarding. The sounds are right, the timing is right, the balance, how high you get off of the ground. I like the idea that the "game" is developing the skill of skateboarding on diverse terrain and obstacles, just like real skating is. I was mildly excited for this title but now I am for sure going to pick it up, it can't come soon enough.
Just to be on the safe side I am going to continue assuming this game is vaporware until I see the box on the shelf.
I agree with Clinton514, this game's PR has been disastrous. Many in the industry and gamers alike have been left with a bad taste in their mouth and the taste is undercooked and over hyped Too Human.
