Except that Xbox live wasn't down. In fact most of the apps were available. Your reasoning fails and it seems YOU don't know what you're talking about.
I was wondering how the other side would try spin having BC as a bad thing. You've done a marvelous job.
Wow. Did you just spin BC into a negative thing?
N4G, you have amazed me to the zenith degree!
I don't like that this game has bugs! Let me steal it!!
I'm not gonna get all preachy about piracy, I personally don't care, I just find your reasoning a bit iffy.
"No other video game network from the big three suffers from as much downtime as the PlayStation Network." - Is this not the truth though?
"It seems like every other week we’re hearing about scheduled PlayStation Network maintenance." -Also true yes? But this next part is what I wanted to highlight for you.
"This kind of thing RARELY happens with Microsoft and Nintendo.(pay close attention, this part is for you) SURE there are tim...
Yeah okay, I'm gonna go ahead and say no to this one. Your opinion, your money, mine will be spent elsewhere IF a console requires to be always online.
This has been my stance from the start.
@isarai, check out Hingle's post @1.2 for proof that Tentonsoftube has flip flopped his approach to rumors according to his bias.
Not sure if shocking is the right word here. If Xbox were selling in the thousands, that would be shocking.
360 in Japan is a no win situation.
Seems as though Vita is clawing it's way back to sub 10k. I give it 3 more weeks.
The man has always been arrogant. I've been saying this for years but since he was considered SONY royalty, he was off limits to commoners like me.
Now that he's no longer making Sony exclusives and has in fact bad mouthed one, it's open season on him.
Better story than Halo? Don't make me laugh! The Halo lore is so vast that Killzone's story feels like an episode of Dora the Explorer in comparison.
@Budget Gamer: http://n4g.com/news/1233819... see for yourself.
I see, when its suggested that Microsoft might sell their console for $300 then it's too cheap and won't be powerful.
When SONY says the console will be affordable in the broadest sense it's because it is a marketing strategy. Pretty much right?
I'm not saying you in particular Gribble so don't get excited, but a couple of people suggested the same about Microsoft in the $300 article but they were met with massive disagrees and criticism.
Oh so NOW people want to do the sensible thing and wait until Microsoft confirms.
I wonder why that is. Why the change in approach to rumors folks?
Graphics are not what I'm looking forward to most next gen. I want gameplay improvements. The gunplay in Uncharted is not my cup of tea, I'd cringe each time I had to kill in UC 3.
Next Uncharted needs to work on gameplay and story events, no more life or death situations every 3 minutes, death defying stunts and close calls lose their thrill after the first 10 times.
I want this.
You say this gen and then fail to mention PSP which IS a 7th generation console and games released on that system do add fatigue to the franchise. This is further exacerbated by the fact that those games found their way on to the ps3.
Besides, a franchise's fatigue isn't measured or determined by the number of releases on a single platform, the frequency of game releases is a bigger contributor here.
Now I know it causes people great anger when t...
So an analyst points it out and we are ready to discuss but Jamal says it a bunch of times and he's attacked with a barrage of disagrees and insults!
I said both games were doing less than great and I even lost a bubble for it. I won't mention where (platform) the most (almost all) the insults came from.
This preview made me itchy for this game. I hope Microsoft pushes for a retail version once this becomes successful.
So Xbox Live does go down for maintenance. . .for an hour. . .and still allows you to log on and play games.
Wow. Like for real wow. I'm stunned by what you've just written here today. I need to sit down and process that I live in a world where people actually say things like this about gaming consoles.
