Pardon me if any fanatics get offended, but ANY, and I mean ABSOLUTELY ANY other company would have scrapped a video game division that went 6 billion in the hole and counting, Halo or no Halo.

I've always though it was more about getting a foothold for them than anything else. Does that bother me? Not in the least, that's business, and a business I have nothing to do with. I'll still buy what they've got eventually, and enjoy some of the games. No sweat off my back. Again, sor...

We've heard this from Konami, G4, and of course all the HW companies...when was the last time that something REALLY earth shattering was announced?

If you ask me, all the earth shattering announcements were the ones without precursors like this to generate hype. I'm expecting something weak as always. Resident Evil 5 for Wii or something.

It's really amazing what all devs have been achieving thus far, and this gen hasn't even hit the two year mark yet. What will games like this look like in 3 years?

Any moron with half their wits about them shouldn't care what anyone else thinks if they've already decided that they enjoy something. What reason do you really have to defend it? I loved the old Arc the Lad games. Does it bother me that not many others do? Nope.

What a complete shill...that was just pathetic.

I want this game, but I have a feeling that it'll stay exclusive regardless.

In any case, I plan on buying one next year so I couldn't care less. EA needs some new management though, they're a cancer in the gaming industry. How the Hell did they get so big anyway?

99% of the time what he says and does is a joke or prank. Everyone that buys into it pretty much is getting "punk'd".

but he's stating this as if EVERYONE will feel this way, when this is simply untrue.

Enough devs have stated that they enjoy working on the PS3, and that it's not a waste of time b/c there's so much more that can be done with it.

Newell may be one of our contemporary geniuses, but he can't speak for everyone. The progress that other development teams have shown make his statements moot for anyone else. It all depends on the developers.

Every single time I've heard of some supposedly bombshell news, it turns out to either be nothing, or something weak.

I'll wait on the day to come instead of hyping myself up over potentially nothing.

just in time to be late to the party. By the time this hits it's almost sure to be more advanced than what Crytek has, and with the monstrous penetration UE3 has already, I wouldn't be surprised if people just didn't bother with Cryteks offering. By the time they're done with UE3, guess what will be waiting in the wings...won't be Cryengine, that's for sure.

I could be wrong though, just thoughts. For the record I love what I've seen from Crytek, as that GDC demo was sickeningl...

I still disagree that we'll see a new one in 2 more years. That's just not gonna happen.

IF I DID AGREE, then the only points I would agree with are the HW issues and disc space. If the Falcon models start burning up, a tornado of doomsday headlines will certainly follow. "360's continue to die after inclusion of supposedly improved internal components" is but one example of a flurry of potential headlines. A few people that work with me, and they aren't even gamers A...

SSB has always been fun, this one looks to have more depth with Snake and Sonic. All we need now is Guile and sub Zero

I've been waiting on Bioshock since I first saw a preview, and Mass Effect looks pretty good too.

I never took FP online last time around either, this would be pure un-adulterated CHAOS online! I absolutely LOVED CTF on FP, it was so much fun, even with bots! Before a friend of mine and I got into Halo 2 last summer, 2 years ago it was nothing but Timesplitter FP every day. CTF is by the far the most frantic in any FPS, and the level design was just ace.

I'm excited for this game more than I am for Killzone 2 at this point, but that's based on previous experience. Things ar...

So many different characters and mini games, killing zombie cows was awesome!

I hope they bring a lot of the classic mini games back, and of course add some great new ones. Anyone know if Cortez will make a return? In any case, FP had the best replay value of any FPS I've ever played.

but FAR too many people look for the score, latch onto it, and wave that flag everywhere they go. It's disgusting. I like reading reviews myself. READING them, scores mean jack to me, as most of them are arbitrary, especially when it's debatable that they don't exactly fit the descriptions in the review.

Personally I use descriptions, reviews, previews, videos, screenshots and interviews to figure out my purchase.

In this day and age, there's far too many SIMPLE ...

'You can either have the game this year, or a demo this year, you decide.'

Personally I'd rather have the game, it's a done deal purchase for me, but then again, I'm sure there are those that feel otherwise.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I see a fanboy toting review scores as if they're a set in stone law. It's as if a so called pro reviewer(what a laughable title) has a special skill set qualifying them to either enjoy or dislike a game.

"That game got like a 6 from site Y, so it sucks no matter hwat you think!"

And these people think they've got one up on somebody...pitiful.

I was gonna buy one in February...I suppose I still can.

Does anyone know how well the Falcon units have been working thus far?

6819d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

and according to you other people are fooling themselves? So who are you to tell someone whos had hands on experience with the game that it's garbage? I suppose your ad populum arguments and anecdotal evidence(if opinions can even be called that) hold more merit to someone else than their own personal experience, right?

Yep, you're the smart one there buddy. Next, why don't you go tell astronauts how hazardous their job is from your various sources of hearsay, I'm sure they'll ...

Eyetoy and Home integration would be a must!

I could see this playing out as something of a safari MMO. Complete with poachers, journalists, photographers, game wardens, etc.
