I don't understand people getting all territorial about GTA, I still play it but for balls out fun SR has that series beat. Rockstar is going for a more mature type of game lately and that's fine so what is the problem with SR going the opposite direction? If GTA wants to let go of the chaos and dark humor that made vice city and even san andreas so good then why criticize Volition for picking up the ball and running with it? It's not like you have to choose one or the other, game...
I drunk the kool-aid and bought a launch PS3, knowing full well that most of the time early adopters get screwed in the long-term (higher price, greater technical problems, etc) but have been pleasantly surprised that my old, glossy, fat 60gb is relatively future proof since Sony has been stripping the PS3 of features with every new iteration. Honestly though I have only played PS2 games on the thing a few times (Katamari with young relatives) and my HD is almost full. However its never crash...
I see the logic the articles author is putting forth but since the unveiling of the vita, which has incredible tech/performance, maybe the PS4 will follow suit with incredible performance at an affordable price. Sure Sony will initially take a loss but if they make up with quantity they could be a serious contender against MS and Nintendo.
Wow, Sony is really firing on all cylinders with the Vita, first the ssid game carts (no moving disc parts) and now these incredible screens. I was ready to declare the iPad/iPhone the slayer of dedicated mobile gaming but then Sony comes along and gives it a shock to the heart! Some very sexy new hardware that I hope lives up to the hype.
Sony is very smart to drastically reduce the hardware and software prices for the vita. In this post-iPhone era gamers have gotten used to paying $5-10 for games now. I must say I am very impressed with Sony and their marketing of the vita, there strategy has made the system incredibly attractive. I usually take my whole 360 with me when I travel but the vita would be much more convenient and it wouldn't break the bank. Sony seems to have really learned their lesson regarding pricing and ...
How come sites post lists of deals like this without linking to Cheapassgamer? CAG has had a dedicated thread for this for over a year, I've never even heard of "gamerdeals".
Given that the average age for gamers is in the low 30's I don't understand why people can't just buy both systems? If you aren't gainfully employed six years into the console cycle what are you doing?
What really confuses me is that these fanboys have enough free time to troll comment sections but not enough time to earn the money that would make the debate irrelevant! If you buy 5+ games a year you have enough to buy another console so what is the point of b...
That's a real Rorschach slide, I know I have a set. I am almost finished with a doctorate in clinical psychology and have been trained in administering the test and the two bears hi-fiving answer has been given to me a few times. Actually that answer is a sign of strong abstract reasoning and conceptualization. I am actually pretty surprised they used the real thing, you can only buy them (for a lot of $) if you a licensed psychologist or can verify you are in training under a licensed ps...
Ever since Amazon started offering credit for game trade-ins I have no use for Gamestop. They pay the shipping when you send them games and the credit you get can be used for anything Amazon sells not just games.
No one really knows the facts regarding why Gerstmann was fired, something was fishy, certainly his stuff being put outside of his office wasn't cool. However, after he was fired almost every significant personality and staffer quit or left out of protest. Gamespot was a favorite because the podcast and video show were comprised of a team with such chemistry and charisma, after they all left the site and community was just an empty shell.
Seriously, any undergraduate student involved in the social sciences realizes how loaded Ebert's question is. It's irredeemably unbalanced, I picked Twain but that doesn't mea...
N4G never credits cheapassgamer, who have listed this deal for almost two weeks now. BTW stacking the manufacturer coupon with the $10 Reward Zone one is dicey, the clerk barely let the manufacturer one pass (it's hard to say no). Still, $20 for the game is still a steal, just credit CAG where credit is due.
I know that not everyone can afford both a 360 and a PS3 but..
Why not work more hours, use some student loan money, or just hold back on a few games until you can afford both (Cheapassgamer.com would save you enough money in about 6 months!). I saved and bought both and it was worth it. Both have their strengths and weaknesses and each have great exclusives.
Maybe if these fanboys worked as hard in real life as they do arguing with people on forums they wou...
Since I have no idea how this internet thingy works I am so blessed to have a game that provides a way to view videos of games that are already out or that I have no interest in!!
What a steal God of War 3 is now that I have discovered this incredible game video feature, I would have paid a lot more if I would have known. Well, that's Sony for you, always providing such incredible value in their products and throwing in extra functionality for free!!
I don't know what happened or why but all the faces in AC2 look like cartoon characters now. The first had pretty good looking faces, kind of static, but still nice.
I have no complaints about the PS3 graphics, just their community, online and not enough exclusives. Not until Uncharted 2 did I see a game whose graphics matched the quality of the rest of it.
Movies, Music, Books, all bow before the profitability margin of hit games. Movies frequently cost 200 to 300 million to produce not including press and marketing.
The fact that MW2 cost 40 to 50 million to make is amazing! Games are dominating!
I love it when local "real" gamers have shows, sites or podcasts. These guys were funny and really likeable, maybe N4G should run these guys more often.
Gamestop seems to really condemning their soul to hell more every story I read.
For the musicians out there GAMESTOP IS THE GUITAR CENTER OF GAMING Anybody know what I am talking about?
These guys, who are clearly partisan in their platform support, get a story almost every week even though they seem to know little to nothing in the way of news. It's just some dudes saying inflammatory things to a webcam! How does that constitute news?
N4G should see the pattern by now: 1.) Title your story something unbelievable, misleading or salacious. 2.) Submit story to videogame blogs 3.) watch story get picked up and interested readers get pissed
