Perhaps these articles shouldn't be posted if they don't contain anything actually new. I'm looking forward to Natal, but I saw all I needed to see of Ricochet during the E3 demo.
You could agree more with the article. :)
Puts things into perspective.
MGS is always a good time.
Totally agree with you Enigma
I can see you point, but even at 90 seconds of loading (in and out of level) after 5 minutes (or more) of gameplay isn't too long for me.
All I'm saying is that shorter loads would be better, but this isn't a big deal. 90 seconds, sure. Overly frequent loads (Sonic!) are terrible. This is neither of those instances.
Sony demoed Move at E3 last year with debug stuff, they have since both announced or demoed at least 10 titles that will support Move when it launches. Certainly at E3 they will announce and demo more.
I think the reason people give MS grief is because since E3 last year, they have given no public demos of new titles. It's always been Ricochet and Burnout. I agree with you though, let's wait until E3 to see.
The blog someone posted above stated ...
The whole video is less than 4 minutes, and the actual track loads up in less than a minute. Really? It's like 10-15 seconds longer than Motorstorm. Why do gamers complain when something isn't instant?
Game looks great, and the creation tools look awesome. 50 second level loads shouldn't deter anyone looking for a good kart racer. 2 minutes, sure. 100 seconds, I can agree to complain about that. But not less than a minute.
I'd also ...
Not only does the author not back up his assumptions with facts, but there isn't one cite in the article of a researcher who sees this as a problem.
The guy with the lawsuit is just listed as a California man. Look, if you bought a PS3 for linux, just don't update. If you bought it for both, then make the call as to what you need that PS3 for.
If some poor guy at home is going to be screwed because he had to choose between playing games and linux...

Go's are 250 retail, 200 via sellers on Amazon, and 160 or so used on Amazon.
I was an early adopter, and really like the PSPgo. Been getting back into comics since they can be downloaded straight to the GO and then viewed when I have the time. I hope they can drop the price to ...
Please do some research on our recently passed health care reform. It's not perfect, but it's a start. If you only get your news from cable news (especially Fox) then you probably haven't gotten the full story.
In related news. I don't see how low 360 sales in Japan needs to be pointed out. High sales yes, but low sales isn't really newsworthy. Hopefully Natal will help their Asian markets improve.
Bravo Game Informer, that was a mighty nice article. I'm impressed by the demos and impressions, looking forward to more.
Previous GT games have had both weather and night variants. I would like to believe we've seen more than enough to prove that Polyphony is not phoning this one in. 5 years, tons of cars and tracks, but we still don't know everything. If it has no weather, it doesn't hurt the franchise, it will be fine even if it had no night racing. It'd be fine if it was just 700+ cars and 30+ tracks without Nascar and WRC.
But considering what we do know, and what Polyphony has delivered o...
I think you're looking for Natal. :)
The acronym you've created there is slightly unfortunate.
I'd also add that driving in heavy traffic on the freeway can be rough. Lots of movement, the speed, the proximity of the cars.
Now just imagine having 30+ other drivers, all racing well above 120mph all trying to get to the front, all within feet or inches of the car next to them.
Sorry for the long sentence, but that's why I dig Nascar, it's amazing racing. Not too fun to watch people talk about (SPEED Channel!) but it can be great fun to get detailed on or play the...
Day one. I've been playing the old SOCOM games lately and was wondering about a new one. I really dig on SOCOM singleplayer, so this is just what I wanted to hear.
I would argue that Yakuza has a story which is more engaging and interesting than either Shenmue. Also the fighting is much more refined than Shenmue. Yakuza is also a larger game than Shenmue, with a greater number of minigames and distractions that let you just sorta play around in the world they give you.
Shenmue was great for it's time, and certain elements were done quite well back in the day. But I feel like even though they are different games, the Yakuza series has s...
No disrespect to Sonic or fans and I loved Sonic Adventure in 99 but it's 2010. Why are we seeing Dreamcast ports in 2010? N64 ports? Really? I get it to some degree, but I just don't see the appeal really.
Remedy is a solid dev. I hope things turn around for AW, I loved both Max Payne games.
