"Yeah lets pay 139$ to fix our broken console instead of buying a brand new one with a fresh 3 year warranty for 199.99"
So in other words, you bought two XBOXses. The first one you paid 399 for it. And the second time, you paid 199 for it.
And then you try to claim that youre the one who is better and cheaper off?
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the "fanboy logic"
ROFLMAO!
MDs Logic is sound but also:
Ladies...
That's VERY true, I know a couple of people who NEVER go on live, have arcade models and are fine with simply buying HD games to play at home solo or with friends or family.
You don't need a HDD
You don't need Wifi
You don't need to play online.
It's literally built for and marketed to the "casual gamers"
Of course you won't find many arcade console owners in your 360 friends lists because of just that, they're casual and don't play...
I could pull a better price comparison out my...
Anyways, why is this age old price debate being brought back up?
Everyone here knows the PS3 is "cheaper" but it isn't always about price so why should we read articles from such low quality sites with such low quality effort put in to their subjects?
Screw "Live cost blah blah blah"
lets bring up things that HAVE to be bought like batteries for the controllers or a recharge unit+recha...
Thanks for explaining he "new" status of this game at blockbuster, that clears that problem.
Whether you remember it or were subject to it or not is not my concern, I, PERSONALLY, saw a TON of commercials for this game, He was always drinking "juice" and i saw it multiple times daily on whatever channel i was watching.
BUT, the mark-down effect absolutely was the reason for it's sales. Just look at what happened when Valkeria chronicles price we...
1. He would name Batman for it's one exclusive character that can only be used in the challenge mode over Ninja Gaidan Sigma 2? Just saying...
2. He names some no-release date games for what reason?
3. He names some confirmed 2010 titles for what reason?
4. He names Shadow Complex for 360 but skips Fat Princess for PS3?
5. He skips: Demons souls and Ratchet and Clank a crack in time all together
How do articles like this get approv...
LOL, well at least his name fits cause he's killing himself with a list like that in a 360 article.
He named a few 360 games but i got to take The Xbox Empire's side on this one. There's a perfectly similar topic for PS3 (favoring) gamers so why post a PS3 heavy wish list here?
His taste are his taste, he just chose the wrong place to post them and what's the point of posting a list like that anyway? Attach them to your "wish list and people can visit that if they have...
This pair of articles are really screwed up. i can kinda understand this one because pc releases stop some game from being exclusive, im sure theres others though. The PS3 list is worse though because he mentions games that are not coming out this year.
Reduced price compared to retail, free shipping (at the cost of time), and no sales tax (at least for me in california). All good things and this just furthers interest if you were on the fence.
I just bought Balzeblu from them for $59.99 period, in store it would be $64.99 + tax so i save like $10 and no charge for shipping.
The game is 65 because there is only a limited/special edition version, not sure why though.
I wonder if these ads are in the game period or only when you play online? I ask because if they're only while online then they are probably update-able, like once that movie gets old a new ad will takes it's place. it's be weird to put the game in two years from now and see a really old movie ad...
EA said they were going to do stuff like this a while back though, didn't think it would be so in-your-face/invasive though.
But the thing is, non-gamers even know of these two games (commercialized) where as Fable would be unknown to the simple male 17-33 that just likes to shoot things in games. And people interested in Halo 3 probably already own 360s.
TWO big name exclusive in the "cheap" bundle?
Merry Christmas in July b!tches!
That bundle would be a hard thing to argue against. "But honey, it's got TWO of the main games i wanted one for!" "Fine, but you can't buy any extra games for..."
Are you kidding me?
If there weren't so many price cut rumors constantly in circulation the PS3 would be selling more NOW. That said, just imagine what happens when/if an actual price drop DOES hits.
Of course a price drop will help, Amazon.com proved that, woot.com proved that, any recent discount we've seen that sales out in a day proves that.
The initial question is as pointless as the article itself.
They think it won't make a difference for l...
This article, though with good intentions, is upside-down.
full 720p confirmed? We had been hearing this game was going to be 1080p native a few months back, guess they couldn't pull it off. It's still an upgrade but i had read months ago that it was going to be 1080p so im a little disappointed.
Still buying it, NG2 was one of those few and far in between reasons for me to consider buying a 360.
Others included:
Halo 3s video capture mode (unchart...
This is supposed to be one of those cheap, playstation store only titles and as such they're supposed to be quick to make and fun. An easy way to turn a profit because not much production cost in making them. But since time = money i'd say all the delays of this title are going to cost them a lot.
I can't imagine buying this game around the same time as Uncharted 2 being released, it's bad enough that Ninja Gaidan Sigma 2, bayonetta and Demon's Souls are all coming out in that time ...
"The game is more than worth the price tag so shut up."
A lot of you seem to be having memory issues.
Haze sold so well because it was hyped to he11 and back, it was one of the most advertised and talked about games on the PS3 before it was released. It sold well because it was marketed well and it's as simple as that.
I was considering purchase of this game before it came out (and im not even a fan of the genre) but once the demo was released and i played it i knew it wasn't for me. I actually liked the demo too, i just sucked ...
This prevents M$ from using house hold items in games, it doesn't stop them from their scan in and use without holding though. It says sony filed it so they have it. They can't "get owned" since they're the first and it's approved already.
Example
This means you can't throw physical paper airplanes in natal but you could make the gestures still.
That earth quake one was cool, i didn't know there were more of these tech demos, didn't even think to look ...
I thought it would be on screen but they have a custom character model dancing on a stage and synced to music. That's just wild.
Does that pic really mean something?
This took me two minutes in MS Paint
Even better, i'll post both so you can do a quick side-by-side
