Oh, as the marketing machine goes full on for Kinetic it'll sell. But, who care? You should if you have a 360!
Think what will happen to the 360 if Kinetic sells well. 360 already has a massive game deficiency....Halo (all done after reach....at least for the following year), Gears 3, Fable 3.......and that's it. Multiplats don't really matter as its the exclusives that keep the fanbois fanbois.
So, resources are already Kinectic skewed.........if...
I been going to my mom & pop store for over 15yrs....
I asked my guy whether Kinetic was selling. He laughed. I asked about Move...he was a bit more serious, but kinda smirked.
When I pressed him...he told me straight up that nobody was pre-ordering either.
Move had more people asking questions...but Kinetic was laughed at. He said it wasn't that these gaming add-ons didn't deliver, it was simply because everybody that these things appealed too alr...
I have it. I'm playing it now and lovin' the sh^t out of it!
It's pretty close to being another Batman in quality. If the camera was tweaked a bit more it'd be 9.5/10
expect to see many 9's though. It really is the best Spidey game and it just funny, great looking solid frame rate and great animations...even facial animation!
And their's a decent amount of FP (First Person) in this game! Totally surprised me!
I love this game. I owned it at launch...played out Raven, vetted to Sver and almost beat Valor. But I sold it...even as much as 5 months ago the numbers were low. Getting into Domination matches was a 10min wait THEN...I'm scared to wonder what the wait is now. Of course time of day factors into things.
But, the new Beta that was just released will destroy MAG in my opinion. It's slowly being tweaked every update to be more like COD. Now the Beta has a currency syste...
yeah because your xbox is a fucing needed like water bills and electritity! GTFO!
You have a choice with your xbox. vote with your wallet not MS Koolaide
I meant Halo. Halo was my first experience with FPS online. It was like HOLY CRAP!!!!! I was amazed! Then time moved on...new titles came out with improvements for me.
I own both consoles too. But this argument isn't about what exclusives we love or even whether we are willing to pay for services we know should be free.
I meant to be arguing only the base concept that MS increased the price for a service that shouldn't be charged for. And we both know...
The reason I personally disagreed is because a) you pay period.
Your friends are on LIVE? Ok, how many of them are REAL friends...the kind that you've actually spent time with outside of LIVE? 5? Tell those 5 to jump ship with you!
I love my PS3...but that's because I stopped playing my 360. Once you get away from the koolaid...rational thought starts to set in. Now, all my friends (real friends) are PS3 only or dual users like myself. I play Alan Wake...proba...
No...exclusives are a different argument. Though as you say....they are important.
But, Bungie has moved on....why can't you? Epic has moved on...again, not you.
Bungie has announced officially that 95% of their staff are now divorced from Halo...all chips in on their new multiplat IP. Who's left to give us the dev love that past Halo's had? The janitor? ;)
Gears 3 hasn't even come out yet...but their Bulletstorm engine uses a advanced...
I have a question...
Your sitting at a restaurant and you order a meal. You eat this dish everytime you go out and you love it.
Now, I ask you...if you could order that same meal at a different restaurant, but get it for free....the plate is not your favorite color; or the utensils are not as shiny.......would that make you go back to paying at the original restaurant?
WAKE THE F$ck UP!
Cross-game chat isn't enough for me to buy ...
I read somewhere that Crysis 2 will not have any AA.
This true? I know the 360 has MSAA built in...but it seems that that isn't being used? How's that possible?
What's interesting is how much better Bulletstorm looks to Gears...even Gears 3 from what I've seen. My opinion of course.
But Epic looks to make one of 360's last remaining exclusive, it's own IP...a non-issue for PS3 only owners. Sure I'll get Gears 3 for the story...online though? It's always been a love hate thing for me.
Bulletstorm also has the COD effect - xp system for unlocks.
Seriously, this system is everywh...
I was thinking about Reach the other day....I want it, but refuse to buy LIVE again. I have my PS3.
But, Halo is awesome.
Even though Bungie has all but left it to the Janitor. I want it.
But with all the features for a FPS...it got me thinking. FPS's are the bread n' butter of consoles this gen. No question. Sales show this on both HD consoles. Due in large part to MP via internet.
I was wondering how Reach & Bla...
Depends on what your are meaning? See, in real life...Shotguns are far better than in most FPS games. Range on a Police grade Shotty is 70 metres! That's not even adding slugs instead of spray. You can add another 50 metres with moderate accuracy. then their are modifications like extended barrels, constrained choke (which allows for a tighter spread at range) etc.
My point is...these games have to create realism without making one weapon better than the rest so much that...
While all that is true...it might not be anymore.
If you've been keeping up with Bungie news...they & Activision have been talking about their partnership. Big deal right? Right. But when Bungie themselves say that 98% of the studio is now working exclusively on their new multiplat IP...
Who's left to "listen to their community, ban cheaters/hackers, update their games to increase replayability, keep their servers running smoothly,"??? The janito...
I don't wanna sound all conspireist (hey I made a new word...what it's not a real word just because I created it...and it isn't recognized as such? LOL), but I think these massive Billion dollar corp's aren't as weak as you people think.
This leak is very likely controlled situation. It creates great buzz and free advertising. Those people who watch youtube endings of Reach, saying they don't need the game now....aren't likely to buy it regardless...
Entertainment for some isn't for others. But as long as no real world harm is done then it should be allowed. It's freedom of idea, that's what all governments would love to control.
And is via media.
I finished Kane & Lynch 2 a day or two ago...(got back my full price too!), it was fun. Though to short.
But, I'm playing psychopathic killers....how is this ok? But Taliban isn't?
I'm a fan of all things Halo...read the novels, played 1-3 on 360. (no PC gaming for me...never liked it).
But, am I the only one that sees that Reach isn't much more than Halo 3.5?
I'm not trying to stir crap - it's just that it looks only slightly better?
-graphics are a bit dirtier...more realism. cool.
-animations are almost 100% recycled (close combat excluded...hence the 90%)
-new weapons and gear, armour, skills ...
Not sure what crippling error he got as i'm not reading BS.
But I have it and the short story is indeed short...like 5-6hrs.
But its a great 5-6hrs!!! Seriously, the detail, sound and voice work is great!
This game screams DLC episodes...not that I wanna pay for DLC. LOL
MP is really fun and interesting. Fresh.
Now, so you all know - I did find a cripling error. If you have the demo still on your HDD - it will not install the 1.5gb...
I distinctly remember MS advertising ME2 as not needing ME1 to get it.
LOL
Watching this go down is sooooo funny!
MS must've known that something like this was coming. EA for the entirety of the year have been giving free exclusive DLC to PS3 versions of their games.
If I was working at MS I'd be begging Activision to please not show Sony love.
Even Epic has stated Bulletstorm is their new hot $hit! Better than Gears...but it&#...
WTF! I come here because someone usually knows.
Burning of you do! Ahhh! Lol
Seriously though what is this?
