"Yes i do me and my friends played 16 player Halo CE lan every weekend like crazy untill Halo 2 came out."
You and your 16 friends ALL decided you dont like halo, for exactly the same reason but like exactly the same FPS elsewhere? Sure you are not making this up just for the sake of fabricating a counterpoint? Seems a bit suspect, is all....
"The weapons were so weak and dumbed down we lost interest in halo 2 after 2 weeks"
Odd. I...

"the simple fact is it can't handle 60fps"
Lol, and what do you think, forza 5,6,titanfall, COD and MCC run at? But ok, if you want to play that game...what FPS does, the order, bloodborne and DC run at? How about infamous? UC4?the last guardian? Horizon?..any of those running @ 60FPS? The only upcoming PS4 exclusive that runs at 60FPS is a 2D fighter called SF5. Want me to go on?

"LAN parties made it popular not online Mp."
Lan is essentially online gaming without the long distance. And people can still do that anyway, So im not sure what point you are trying to make. I was replying to MightyNoX false assumptions about what made halo great. Not what has contributed to its popularity. Just giving you clarification.
But Ill humour you...Do you honestly believe that more people play halo via LAN t...
I agree. I was thinking it stretched the limits of the hardware, initially, hence the no show for years, until PS4 showed up. But hearing him say he could have completed it on PS3 shoots that theory down.
What I dont understand then is, if it would have been fine on PS3, why didnt it happen?
I hear what you guys are saying but that is sonys solution. They are not going to give you backwards compatibility, now. Not after all the money they invested in PSNow.
"They forsake what made Halo great (putting ADS, no split-screen)"
Halos online MP is what made it great, not split screen co op. As for ADS..aiming works the same way it always has. Visually you see a gun now instead of just the reticule....try harder, man.
"it may not even reach 1080p or 60fps. "
Going by your comment history, I think thats wishful thinking on your part.
Its called PSNow.

"I love how people disregard a Halo veteran's concern, as long as they get free maps."
You say that like other people who disagree with are not veteran halo fans too. And whats with the fake concern? You only need to go as far as the second and third page of your comment history to see, that you are NOT even an xbox gamer, let alone a halo fan. You found a disgruntled halo player on N4G, and are clinging on to his every word i...
Mechassault, jet force jemini, A reboot of solar jetman (rare), PGR to slot in between fora releases and a reboot of battletoads. Crimson skies as well.
"That said, if MS wanted to go to a 3 year cycle, with PGR thrown into the mix, I would be ecstatic."
Could bring back rallysport as a full rally sim with a WRC licence and make that a four year dev cycle. Forza games have legs on them. I usually have not fully completed the single player portion of the game, by the time a new one comes out. a third year where neither FM or FH comes out would be great because, I am never quite done with my current forza by the time a n...
Nope. But I say that as a halo fan, who plays online, mostly, anyway though.
Its up to devs. But I prefer to play online. I still like co op same screen 2d games. But my eyes never liked splitscreen.
"You sound like E3 hasnt happened yet."
well, their gamescon line is big like an E3 line up. Its nice to know that it dont stop at E3, though.
Good time to own an xbox.
Can never have too many. :)
No, it wont 'win the war'. What it will do though, is entice x360 owners who have yet to purchase an new console. And there are LOTS of those out there.
"I'm a hardcore gamer and i don't see the point in it"
Im a hardcore gamer and I do. But then most of my X360 controllers were Scuf customs.They are better than the already great stock X360 pad...This type of conrtoller is right up my street.
"I can understand a fighting stick or a race wheel improving your performance slightly, but a controller with interchangeable bits and adjustable stick resistance which you can do in the settings of most...
Not at all. MS know the market for this type of controler is smaller than a stock controller. Which is still available for the majority.
As for the GAME exclusive, thing, it dont matter. There are GAME stores all over the UK. They also killed off all bar CEX and CEX are only good for used stuff anyway. This only applies in the UK and seeing as GAME are the only large dedicated chain store for games, its a moot point. You can purchase from game just as easily as any other stor...
Great podcast.All that was missing was Ed, J. allard and robbie Bach. But this was cool. a meeting of three generations of xbox leaders, chopping it up.Its been quite a journey but Im always team green.
Looking forward to what the future holds for xbox. I expect big things.
if its the disc you just pop it in and it does a quick update. simple as that. If its titles you own digital already you can just go ahead and download them again to your X1. I havent done it, myself as Its only available to preview members. But from what I have read, that is how it works.
The precious....I cant wait to use thing on halo and forza. Im getting a new turtle beach headset at some point. the 500x of the 420X. Not a tourney gamer but I love the good stuff!
I think it would be more successful if it could stream PS4 games without the need to own a PS4. PSTV is basically the entry level solution into PSNow. So they need to broaden PSTVs appeal by adding Ps4 games to PSNow ASAP. Most casuals who would be interested in this are not interested in old PS1,2 and 3 games.
