*forgot to add she walked into the store with her kid
The reason why people call the Ps3 hardware failure(Yellow light of death isn't catchy)BS is because it happens very rarely.
The only reason why you hear about the 'YLOD' as you put it is because of the Internet;I've honestly never encountered a person with a broken Ps3,but have I encountered a person with a broken 360?Yeeup.
Short story;One time I was picking out a Ds game at GameStop and in comes this 40-something year old mother carrying a Box looking pissed o...
Yes it is,it's about 128MB in size,so if you own an Arcade console you're fine with your 256MB card.
If you own a Core console though,you're basically screwed
Yup,because you,a single Internet poster,represent 22 Million Xbox 360 users
^My most anticipated games of 09^
RROD is part of the NXE?!??!its been here all along!
lol I'm joking but seriously though;a system dying due to an update is pretty common,it's just that the RROD magnifies the situation
Maybe to you but to the majority of gamers and all publishers out there,a review from a credible and well known site holds more weight than a review from an unknown website.
You can have 15 reviews from unknown websites praising a game,but if IGN and GameTrailers or Gamespot and 1up or Eurogamer and GameInformer say the game is mediocre then the game will be labeled mediocre,and as a result,sales of the game will be hurt.Too Human anyone?
Or maybe a desperate attempt at generating traffic through flame-bait,either one works
Yeah but only one of the reviews is from a mainstream credible website,and that site is Eurogamer
Hey hey wait a minute now!You can have multiple accounts on 360 as well!
It doesn't look like its going to happen
Well it looks like that's what they tried with Lips and judging from this Review it looks like their efforts are not going to work
lol I was going to comment on your comment but then I saw your name LOL!!!!
The irony is the REAL Rick Astley is probably a fan of Singstar lol!
lol,this is TRUE:The dude in charge of Capcoms Digital Distribution division used to work for Sony and to top it off not only did he leave Sony on excellent terms,but he still gets invited to Sony-only events.
There's nothing wrong with that I'm just giving out a little information
I know right,Rock Band was able to cut into Guitar Heroes fame by branding itself as a more mature and slicker way of playing a Guitar videogame,and it worked.
It looks like Microsoft tried the same for Lips and so far,it doesn't look like its going to work
Singstar has yet to do jaw-dropping numbers in NA but in Europe every single Singstar full retail game has sold over a Million copies(I'm not talking about the expansion packs here I'm talking about the core games).It's no surprise why Microsoft wants in on the market.
Is Lips going to help them?Maybe,but if more reviews roll in giving the game such low scores,the answer is going to be a sure No.
Actually you're wrong;The PUBLISHER worries about sales the most,the developer?They just have to make sure their game doesn't get a 70% and below on Metacritic,and last I checked,LBP is sitting at 95% on Metacritic,a score shared and beaten by very few games this generation(Bioshock,GTA4,Orang e Box,Super Mario Galaxy,Twilight Princess,World of Goo,and 1 or two others)
It's going to be a million+ seller that's for sure.
LBP is a big reason for people still on the fence on purchasing a Ps3,before LBP it was "I got a Ps3 for MGS and Bluray",now its "I got a Ps3 for LBP MGS and Bluray"
So it's significant in the fact that when you have those ''purchase excuses'' you know;the ones where you question whether a product is worth your time/money?e.g "but why should I get the new iPod?" or "the price w...
And I don't have a problem with the NXE.
Is the new experience good?It's as good as the blades which I love
Is the new experience a worthy update?eeeyup
Is the new experience a game changer?Nnnope
I remember using Nos for the first time,it sure felt great.
The problem with EA is they're trying too hard to make NFS like 'The Fast and teh Furious' movies,leave all that crap alone and give us a game that feels and plays great
