I have just bought a 6ogb 360 for my younger brother as an early christmas present and so we can play fifa club mode/gears 2 mp online together : ).
£179 for the console and extra controller and fifa 2009 was to good a deal to pass up.
My Aunty (casual gamer) whom only owns a wii is also buying a 360 this christmas as a second console mainly for fifa and nba2k9.
Looks like there are alot of other people doing the same thing. Im still gonna get a p...
Just to let you know that Ms are releasing a new 360 controller with a reconfigured d-pad for the release of Pes 2009.
This should finally fix the one problem i think the 360 pad has and even though ive kinda got used to the pad as it is needless to say ill puicking one up when there released i need all the help i can get with SCIV/VF5 online : ).
So if your wanting a new pad with a solid functioning dpad id wait for this.
The dpad now is usable(i play vf4/SCIV)with it but there are the few odd ocassions where diagonal inputs aren't pulled off.
But i guess ive got used to it either way ill be getting a new pad when this is released.
Every little helps when it comes to smashing it up online. : )
Looks like you made new friends blademask. :) Keep up the good work buddy.
Oh and im getting a Ps3 this october for lbp, Naruto UNS and few of the older plat games i have yet to play(mgs4,Hs,rac,unchartered,e tc.)
But guess What ill be getting this day one along with Banjo and kazzoie,fable 2 and fall out 3(exc dlc) for my 360.
Its good to be a gamer Blade mask you should try it.
Enjoy your trolling Buddy if it makes ya feel good..... its j...
Don't bother posting much anymore becasue of the complete bias and lack of any worthwhile disscussions on this site.
Seems like most o0f the like minded people like you and meus also don't bother to much anymore.
As for the rest of you (exc a few select cases) don't you ever get tired of this constant Battle of downplaying the 360 acheivments and praising anything Ps3 related??
Both consoles have good points and bad points and both are selling well henc...
then realised tjis thread is just full of Ps3 Fanboys mouthing about Gt5.
I don't know when GT5 will come out or how it will stack up in the driving stakes to simbins race pro so i won't even bother cp them.
Both games are coming from devs with a proven track record and so should deliver on the exp they are steering towards.
Gtr2 is still the most realistic/acclaimed sim racer on the market to this day so i reckon Henrik Roos knows what he is talking abo...
Love is a strong word but i think its wat im feeling bring me back to my gaming roots with the megadrive and golden axe. Hmmm.................
........Good times.
Bemoth the devs were the talented guys behind Alien Homid HD on xbla (also highly reccomended.) I have been waiting for this game to come out for a year or so. Worth the wait so far.
8 way chat,partying up though the dash board,net flix, 100 vs 1 quiz show and avatars (love these on my wii personalises the gaming exp)
Greatest update ever!
Home still looks brilliant but i am wondering firstly when it will be released but also who is gonna spend time navigating though the virtual world.
Surely most gamers want an avatar to have a personality online and be able to party up in groups easily and quickly but Home seems to be a seperate en...
Tales of Vesparia is tearing up over there. Even if i was to take away the entire 360 back catalogue and upcoming games in other genres. The 360 would be imo worth the £180 it costs for the Rpgs that are coming out this year and next.
Who does not want extra fallout3 content?
Who out of those that bothered to answer are kidding themselves with their answer as the console of choice does not have access to the said content?
Hmmmmm....Well enjoy the y...
N4g has always been rife with Sony propoganda and fanboys but since that announcement they have been working really hard scouring the internet for articles such as this to turn the fastly growing trend of Sony losing exc and therefore appeal.
Now as a gamer i can say that br may have its advantages when making games that must be on one disc but if you look at the installs that are necessary to play games on the Ps3 i think it kinda defeats the point.
With Ms now brin...
I agree with you guys its nice to somtimes just get back to basics.
Braid is a fantastic game played the demo after seeing the reviews and reccomendations. I then bought the game and so far think its worth every penny. Beautiful to look at and great/challenging gameplay with a thought provoking story that has actually made me feel some emotion. few games manage that
Reccomended to anyone who loves great art and great games.
This has to be the best gaming...
Lol sad.
but with out bc im still a bit dissappointed.
My ps2's laser is on its last leg and dosen't read dual layer discs anymore. Oh and for those always mentioning rrod this is my third ps2 which ive had to buy out of my own wallet.
Still good news that we will finally get ds3 bundled.
:)
Superfragalistics post is also validating this review so im gonna have to play this game.
Super is it really as good as the cvg review portrays?
Never heard of it untill today wow what a great suprise.
now i have found out that the ps3 game won't have online fighting??!!
Talk about a big mistake. For a fighting game(even if it does have a story mode) to not have online this gen is not good enough.
The fighting in Naruto utltimate ninja just looks so exciting why can't they give us some online goodness too.
May get this game instead now as the fighting is great(although not as exciting or complex as NUN) and i online is a big deal to me.
suffers from assasins creed syndrome. Alot of repetition of straight forward missions(ramen delivery, hoop races across konoha etc)
The story is well done although brief in parts.
The fighting on the other hand is great especially online in the chunin exam. Fighting system is quite basic but works very well especially the jitsus.
Overall had a lot of fun fighting online/offline but the amount of mission repetition in story mode was a let down.
I don't own a Ps3 yet but watching the vids of Naruto UN and then cp to this its not even a close contended contest really.The fighting on Naruto UN is faster,more cinematic,more complex/varried and well more exciting from the videos. Namco know how to make a fighting game.
I own the 1st naruto game on the 360 and the story got boring due to assasins creed syndrome(far to much rep of things that were boring the 3rd time around.)Im hoping they add more variety to the story mode bu...
Only problem i have this year is deciding were to use my money/time with all the great games coming out.
Gears 2, Fable 2, Tomb raider,SF4,Naruto ultimate ninja storm,lbp and banjo and kazooie are my front runners this year.
Man i love being a gamer : )
