Who asked kotaku to look for reasons of PS3 exclusivity?
And claim then that those are the only REAL ones?
Maybe it is better to find out the way to interview Kojima and ask him directly?
oops .. sorry .. he was asked many times ...
Yeah .. he was avoiding the direct answer for pretty long time. Oriental politeness maybe. Positive thinking. Or maybe he didnt wanted to hurt anyone.
He didnt answer for long time until he became completely annoyed by the same q...

Is he a mommy boy to tell us about he was offended by an ugly rep? =)
Once one person told his son - "Money doesnt stink" when the son tried to blame him for undeservedly earned money (One Romanian imperator made his people to pay for toilets - that had never happened in Rome before).
Yes, money doesnt stink. It is the matter of writer's reputation as a journalist....
It is obvious he was hired to show the game in a bad light by any mean he was able to get. He d...

Ps3 outsells X60 in Russia 3 to 1

Hey ppl =)
Let others watch Disney toons in HD.
Let others play Gears of War again and again until DVD-drive scratches the disk or Ring of Death appeared.
Let others enjoy Market place with MS Halo 3 selfpromoting trailers
Let other laugh at you cuz you have little number of good games for now
Cuz others got your choice - faulty console with couple of games worth of attention.
if you chose a big black 'piece of sh!t' named ps3 - now you know that you...

that Gears of War cost at least $1 billion as MS claimed about upgrading memory from 256 up to 512 on Epic demand. Plus development, publicity, licensing etc.
That was worth of approx 4 million of sold consoles in 2006 holyday period.

it is stupid to deny that the game looks like noone expected. What are we comparing to? The CG graphics. What else matters?

Hm ... I dont realy know what Microsoft will do.
What about original XBox sales at the moment?

6779d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

it is obvious.
X 360 is designed much like a computer. I mean that all of its components have the same attributes like a computer's ones have. CPU is completely responsible for calculation, GPU - for graphics calculation and output, etc. The weak point that if you have one componet to be out-of-date the entire system will become unable to meet competition. For instance, according to the modern technological change every graphical card becomes old in every 8 months. That means that Xbox...

Instead of spending that 1 billion dollars into warranties it is better to put this money into science and techological reserches as Sony did 3 years ago.

Standard video camcorders can compress video at 1:5 ratio. Lets look deeper. If they are able to compress they are digital and if they are standard they are standard defintion, right? That means that this article consider these cameras to be DV cameras. DV cameras has the fixed bitrate 25Mbs that exceeds our needs at least in 5 times. DVD's mpeg 2 format has usually 5-7Mbs VBR bitrate without any significant visual loss at SD, but it is much more noticable at 720/1080 HD resolution.
Bu...

if you are talking about compresion as a ring-buoy in the DVD problem, keep in mind that the most data used in games has already compressed. The bigger part of data in games are not text files that can be compressed in 1/100 or even higher ratio, but pictures (textures), movies, sound files etc. Noone uses raw picture formats now to store graphical data, sound are usually stored in mp3 or similar data formats and movies are compressed in different formats too. The rest of data may be scripts ...

Sure - noone complains about disk changing
DVD fits pretty nice for data storage (games) at this moment.
But dont call your favorite console as a next-gen machine then. PS3 has DVD drive and was released 6 years ago.
Just call it - my favorite console. And please dont use words like "nex-gen", "the most powerful", or "exclusively".

Today I played my XBox 360. It froze up exclusively during 2 hours and on third wrote me an exclu...

I have never heard someting like "You are lucky with your PS/PS2/PSP/PS3 - it works!"

How much?
Hey Microsoft how much will you pay if I write that PS3 tastes like a piece of sh!t! =)
Or that it has a stinky odor!
Or that all of my BR disks got rotten =)
Is thare a price-list for articles like that? PLz - inform me =)

Sony says it is sold 5 million consoles. Pro-XBox 360 fan sites tells that it is not true - 'they were not sold - just shipped'. Nice =) Who should we believe?
Microsoft says that it sold over 10 million units. Nobody knows how many shipped. But now we know and it is confirmed from many sources (inc. next-door freak) that it has the 30% falure rate. Do these 10 millions include replacements? if so we got 7 million consoles. Meanawhile the only game worth of our WOW is sold in much less...

Thew release of DoW made me to buy X Box 360 cuz it was the game with the quality noone had seen before. According to VGchartsz.com at least 2.5 million people was agree with me (the quantity of sold 360s increased from 5.100.000 to 7.600.000 form Nov 2006 till the Jan 2007) http://www.vgchartz.com/hwc...
It is the fact. The rest is just deduction.

If Sony (or any other developer) is able to create a ...

IHMO Ken didnt mean anything like "artificial exsistance" or "life simulation" when he told about 4D.
I think he said that the modern 3D games had static environment. We got very nice 3D nearly cinimatic scenes at GoW with rain falling etc. But rain never ends there. It doesnt affect game phisics, characters, their movements or accuracy of their shots. That means that the environment is very colorful and atmospheric, but it stays static there.
I think Ken cla...

All flame wars about consoles come eventually to the simple comparison of its hardware. And here is the main problem - simple misunderstanding or ignorance of the arguing sides.

The main argument of sonyboys - the power of Cell. The main argument of xbots - the power of Xenos (GPU).
Here is my vision of the problem.
According to my humble opinion it might be the main point. No matter what powerfull GPU processor you create now it will become a particularly useless...

it works 218 Gflops while it works on "common purposes" tasks. I mean when it is has no optimization routines for its SPU cores. Coparing it to an ordinary G5 CPU is fair only when SPUs dont work.
Comparing 2 GPUs (Xenos and RFX) is difficult too. I may say that Xenos has a huge advantage above RFX only in vertex per second - 1,5 bill and 1,1 bill correspondingly. But if we compare their texturizers we got that Xenos is far behind.
