Ive been using the live counter part 4 a while now and think its a great addition and alot less hassle cp to renting from Blockbusters. The cost is reasonable 4 SD [250 point] but HD is exspensive at 500-600 points for new releases. but i suppose it would cost the same renting physical media, but still.
Play tv looks very interesting 2 but i wonder when they will arrive?
after the home debacle i can't say im holding my breath. guess it will be released when its r...
An MC(not the guys that talk over music beats ;)) is included in the arcade.
I would like to play some of the games out now for the ps3 but nothing has compelled me enough to buy yet due to already owning a wii/360.
I thought it would be Gt5p but the poor online exp(lagging,cheating) really put me off it. hope they do release a patch soon to fix the collison detection and lag.
Im now waiting for mgs4 to see whether it will be the must own game. The Big problem is time due to all the games coming out for the systems this year. Im still playin...
Those are Two games i own and both are AAA in imo. They give you great offline and online exps and as i said are easy to pick up and play but hard to master.
The previous games in these franchises that id played on a mates Xbox were the first games that i wish i had on my ps2 from the original xbox. Msr was genius when it came out and pgr is the succesor to this
Playing halo campaign/multi player for the first time was a revelation. Most fun i have had on a shooter...
I agree with Sonarus that the core machine in this bundle is not worth while to most of us gamers. But for a casual gamer/student its a perfect entry level.
Coupled with one of the most fun/best/easy to play and hard 2 master games. Perfect for the strapped 4 cash student. Just before GTA4 I think this will be very sucessful in selling the 360 to the sector of the market mentioned.
This console sales battle is gonna be very interesting this year with all 3 cons...
The game looks great but like you meus im cynical of pics of games before release. Then again i did not think there car models on Gt5 were possible with 16 players online and was proven wrong.
This game has 16players online, full damage model, enviroments full of life but only 45 cars. So if this is as good as the toca/colin mcrae series i pretty much have to get it even if the graphics are below the pics standard. Codemasters know how to make a great racing game so i have high h...
the fact that Epic are using this as a solution is commendable. I am cynical as well as to how they will manage to update this regularly as the mod scene progresses. I suppose we will see how it goes
Only problem is with ninja gaiden 2,Mgs4 and gta4 round the corner i wonder if gamers will pick this up?
so smooth just like doa4 only a few occasions have i experience lag when playing people in japan. I hope tekken 6 will be as good exp online.
Secondly this is great news i was so hoping that mods would be announced. Well done epic for coming up with a solution and not forsaking your fans that own 360's.
Split screen and mods who would have thought it? sweet.
Edit WHOOPS! meant to post in thread 2.
I ended up getting a 32" 720p/1080i 100hz tv due to it being a perfect size for my room and after researching a bit.
Cnet had a reviews on 1080p and 120hz and their benefits. They said that 1080p is only really beneficial on screens bigger than 50" unless your sitting closer than 1 1/2 the screen size due to the human eye perception. I also found Games magazines stating that the diff between the two resolutions is small/negligble to the humane eye.
The 100...
Spooky!!! lol.
In the same article they also go one to say the 360 dlc is not a selling point as the ps3 is getting its own dlc. Make of that what you will considering i think we all know that the dlc for the 360 is exc and episodic not new veichles and weapons etc.
we have no comparison articles/pictures and the games isn't even out but some how you know the ps3 version runs and looks better.
Here are some comparison shots of dmc4 and cod4 the games that some think are either equa...
because dedicated servers mean that quality of exp will change depending on how far you are away from the server compared to who ever your playing.
Cod4 on the ps3 has some lagg issues(most noticable on bog.) Gt5 has big lagg problems with cars jumping backwards and forwards. When Motor storm came out my mates were having trouble even getting into a game. Pes 2008 although it had problems on both consoles was practically unplayable on psn even with the band aid patch that strippe...
I said do really think Ms are not gonna have a massive ad campaign shouting from the roof tops about gta4 being on the 360 simultaneously and having extra dlc?
Looks like i was right but i think any reasonably minded gamer knew this was inevitable. I wonder how the numbers will stack up in the first month?
Either way i don't really care everyone gets to play the game on their system of choice
Those that want the 10hr dlc will have to get the 360 version...
The Bring Down the Sky download introduced a new uncharted world and featured a new alien race called the Batarians.
New enviroment,new race and new story and it only took up 253.40mb of space this leads me to believe that with the time and money allowed for the Gta4 content it will be significant.
The dlc content will definately have new enviroments wheter it be added sections to liberty or a seperate city just like the forementioned games.It wont be as big as San andreas as liberty city isnt that big but is alot more busy/congested then SA.
It won't take up any more room then a hd movie download off of xbox live(5gb)as they will use data that is already on the disc to construct the new enviroments just like the games mentioned.
I mean did you guys honestly t...
Also really enjoyed wave race and super mario[gb]. 1up really try so hard to be controversial to get hits that i just end losing more respect for them as a beneficial/trust worty site. they will put down any console/game to get hits[eg gta4.] pretty pathetic really.
your always gonna miss out on something whether you have one console or the other. It is exspensive to own them all but i just can't warrant not having either of the three this generation. I owned the gc/ps2 last gen although i played a fair bit of pgr/halo on a mates xbox.
Also really good to see a worthwhile/civil debate on N4g. A perfect example for everyone to follow hopefully.
Edit: Lol i know Meepmoop im shocked how civil most of the posts have been on this article. Great to see
I don't think about it as if it does rrod i'll just send it to ms to fix for free. Had interferance problems with my wii and sent it in to get fixed recently. got it back after 2 weeks and no charge because it was under warranty.
Breakdowns happen for all consoles and yes it is more frequent for the 360 but if it breaks they fix it for free. Ive had mine for a year and no problems to date.
Although some people wont want to hear it as it would mean one less thing they could slate MS and 360 4.
Shadow flares comment above is a perfect example of this type of ignorance. gotta laugh really : ]
