keep the whine-train going Thornton. All this talk of "lessons and morals" justifying the violence in movies coming from the guy who was Bad Santa, a movie character who was near-irredeemable until the very end of the movie when he gave a fat kid a blood-stained pink elephant while he had 8 bullet holes in him.
He also married Angelina Jolie at some point in his life, which I'm sure is where he gets his undeserved sense of self-righteous wisdom.
so the number one article right now is showing Sony's sales figures...and all of a sudden major Nelson releases a statement regarding Xbox's sales?
Big brother is watching, indeed..
it wasn't necessarily meant to be a negative review, I actually like it a lot, just wasn't very overwhelmed by it
..and I think some people need to hit Jon Stewart's "Rally to Restore Sanity".
If you want to ban a game for being able to play as the Taliban, then you should also arrest and deport any actor that has portrayed an Islamic Extremist on American TV....
..not gonna happen is it? I can almost hear some of you saying "well, that's different!" Is it really? You have actors portraying them on TV, and is playing as one in a game so muc...
...and thinking that this was a game factory-made for the douchebag/reality-tv-watching crowd.
Some of the activities included mixing drinks, club dancing, and picking out "undesirables", and beating them up and throwing them out of the club.
Sad to see 50 mil pissed away in such a fashion, but given how the game was turning out, it was probably for the better.
I agree completely!
...and I hope it does. Piracy is the reason there is lack of major innovation in gaming at times. Without the added income, dev companies cannot afford to take a chance on an innovative new IP, and that's why you get a re-skinned Call of Duty every year.
I can see numerous firmware updates if this thing takes off. Even then, according to the demonstration video, it took 90 mins for God of War 3 to copy to the HDD, which I understand is not a lot of time considering som...
Used games, if anything, have opened up gaming to people who otherwise would not be fiscally capable of buying games.
I think the whole "used games are killing teh industry" argument is just devs trying to scapegoat an industry for not being able to properly combat piracy.
But obviously Nintendo and MS are hard at work on their respective successors as well.
Good to know though. A lot of articles try to point to the current gen lasting until 2015 or something. I just don't see it happening. PC is still WAY ahead of the game in the graphics and presentation department, and consoles will need to catch back up sooner or later
I just love how balanced out the game is. You're pretty much on equal footing using either a Warhawk, in a vehicle, or on foot.
Yeah, you might have speed on your side in a Warhawk, but try hovering around a main spawn point for more than 10 seconds...I guarantee a swift death by either Rocket Launcher, Assault Rifle..or both....maybe even Anti-Air Rockets from half the map away.
Okay..that did it for me...I'm dusting it off and playing it tonight! ...
