Yes, 360 is getting an abundance of great shooters, but I'm most interested in this game because it says that they will utilize DirectX 10, if these dev's do get it right I definitely think it will up the ante...and being the graphics whore that Iam you can bet I'll have my eye on this one.
Why bother to post at all if this is all so beneath you? It's just the internet so I don't presume to know you, but I hope that your post is not an indication of how you deal with people in your daily life. If so you likely don't have many friends and the few you have there at Pepperdine Graduate school must have their "agenda" for making you believe they are your friend. Do you usually pay the bill? -Yeah, I thought so and I'm sure they laugh and call you names much worse than...
It doesn't mean "OMG Sony is dead", its not like we had even heard of this guy before this and I would say this on the borderline of not even being news worthy except for the fact that this is a Sony sales executive that quit weeks before the Euro PS3 launch which could easily be seen as a sign of at least some conflict because his position is directly involved with Sony's launch so my point here is that the guy who left to go make pop cap games may have had his differences with M$ ...
Yeah I would have to agree with you. I still have a 32" Sony Trinitron flatscreen that use to reside in my living room but now has been demoted to bedroom duties and she still looks great. But if anybody tried to explain to me that my 50" Sony Wega Plasma HDTV doesn't "really" look better then I would just laugh and invite them over....I'm a graphics whore and games are just beautiful on my plasma....I could send them a pic, but in this case pic's just don't do "my ...
damm, I had to read the title twice.....the "sales boss" quit ahead of the PS3 launch....WOW, but the good news for Sony is that other than this being a small bit of negative press and of course "a good laugh" for 360 fans, it doesn't mean much in terms of Sony's EURO PS3 launch.
I noticed you make some excellent observations in your posts....seems that you try to post fair objective comments about both consoles, thats cool. As for Americans support being surprising for one of the richest companies in the world....well I don't think its all that surprising because I think M$ makes some great products, people will always support that, also as far as the 360 goes it was actually made from the feedback of survey's from actual gamers, and dev's -of course all companies u...
"I think that this site could do much better with a bit more civility"
-Yes that's something I've tried to encourage on this site and like you said that doesn't mean we have to sugarcoat things, I don't, but we don't have to come off as slinging mudd either. I can tell you thats why I enjoy reading your posts, because its clear you favor the things you like but you manage not to talk trash or act as if your choices are the only right choices, don't get me wrong I thi...
I have heard most of these "myths" before but one that I have never heard before was the one about "cheat codes", thats a cool piece of gaming info., kind of funny though.
oh and BTW, whether anybody believes that PS2 or 360 had better graphics they are welcome to their opinion....I still think its very short sighted for anybody to believe that "The more memory, the better the gaming system." -I mean honestly most of us know that their are alot of...
I don't know if that was true or not for all developers but even if that is true DJ, whats your point? Is it that Open GL will some how translate its texture efficiency into better graphics?...because xbox still had the edge in the graphics department despite what Gamepro says a "EA employee told us?" -WTF?, was it a dev, a artist, a janitor? Who? Whats his name? -Forgive me if it just sounds a lil shady coming from Gamepro. Either way most sources say Xbox had the graphics edge ...
Yes most of these games have already been out for the 360 but that only matters if you already have a 360, so for those EURO PS3 fans that have been patiently waiting this line-up looks good indeed. I think that's pretty close to being true. -(please Genki, tell them not to flame me)
Now here's my two cents....this is a news "for" gamers website...I think the original idea is for gamers to discuss news in a rational way and ultimately to have a casual debate about why...
yeah I think it's even more obvious to me that I didn't give VF4 a chance because I didn't even know about the AI training system....I'm cautious if it works well or not for a game like this but it does sound cool. Well if the reviews hold up....(usually IGN is pretty close to my thinking) I will pick this game up for the 360....I could rent it first but honestly I like to buy and play my games from the start....I haven't rented a game in years.
I hope PS3 has a good launch in Europe....it looks like it just might be PS3's strongest market....but either way the more "heated" this "war" gets...the more both consoles will deliver games that push each other, which makes me excited for Halo3, Gears 2, the sequel to Mass Effect what ever it will be, God of War 3, etc.....sure these all will be great games on their own, but don't tell me each dev + M$/Sony won't be peeking over their shoulder trying to outdo the other g...
Raist....don't let it bother you; if you know that you have made intelligent comments and gave your honest opinion without "hating" on someone or a particular console then you have "added" something good to this site....the problem is that people who disagree with others opinion believe that they should spam them in hopes of limiting ideas/opinions different from their own. IMO...thats the most cowardly, pathetic thing you can do.
Now as far as GOW 2, well t...
but I'm not excited about VF5 for the PS3 or 360, why becuase the last one wasn't that great IMO -but its possible that I just didn't give it a chance, I only played it a few times....not bad, but not great. I mean come on, when will we get a fighter that surpasses the fun and excitement of Soul Calibur released on the Dreamcast. -yeah, fighters have gotten prettier but THAT game was sick....yeah it was simple to play but hard to master...if you "mashed" buttons you would hear the...
xbox360rocks, Come on bro, give the guy(DJ) some credit, yeah its what many of us have been saying along time, but at least he put out a un-biased post.
WOW! and DJ I say its a un-biased post NOT because I agree with you but because not once did that post(#16.1) seem like it was to hype one console while degrading the other by twisting some random info already available, uhm maybe minus the every 5 to 10 minute comment -disagree, but hey thats cool. I guess it is possible to l...
but I don't see any connection here to the 360. -Until its released only for the PS3 or officially announced for the 360, lets just leave it at that.
I have owned every major console for the last 20+ yrs and I can honestly say that NO ONE can tell YOU which console is better.
I don't know how much gaming you have done in the past but here's the only thing you need to ask yourself; "What type of games do I enjoy the most?" -Now this is where it gets tricky, because no matter what the answer is all 3 consoles have a little something for everybody, but when it comes to exclusives it really comes down to personal ta...
Well it seems these days it doesn't take much to start a rumor....as a matter of fact I read on the back of my Captain Crunch cereal box that Sony and M$ have decided to join forces next year and will release the PX360 to crush the unstopable force known as the Wii. Its being designed underground with the help of Pentagon in a secret labatory. -Nintendo has no idea whats coming. -You heard it here first.
Honestly I'm not sure what the time period it is, but if you go to the IGN 360 home page thats how the link to the pics actually describe the game. ???, in any case whatever the time period, those charachters are definitely wierd, but cosidering that the dev's keep "pitching" the idea that its not a typical good guy vs. bad guy story I guess the nature of the story is the reason why the characters look the way they do. We'll see.
Phil's mud comment was pretty stupid, but I still don't know why "some" 360 fans have to "bash" this game so hard.....its OK if you want to come here and point out a revelant things because if I remember correctly just last month PS3 fans were laughing at the amount of tracks Forza 2 will have, now they don't like it so much when you point out that 8 or 9 tracks is really disapointing -IMO. Also there are some other "things" I could point out, but you see WHY bot...
