How much money Rockstar and Take 2 made from the sales of GTA4 on the 360, I don't see them going exclusive with the next edition.
More than likely they would reduce the amount of features or put it onto two dvd's than lose hundreds of millions of dollars.
Ahhh the fanboy bickering, I knew there was a reason I stopped checking comments on any flamebait articles.
I see some people post so much on this site I wonder if you even take the time to enjoy the games you have instead of arguing about which piece of manufactured plastic is the best. If you actually have time to play games after arguing all day with someone on N4G comments you don't even know, providing an outlet for your anger management issues, then you clearly can't have ...
The Sonic gameplay looks good, glad their isn't a million other characters to play as but I am still concerned about the wolf aspect.
Def, seems like Activision-Vivendi is the only major publisher not on the list
I may trade in my original 360 (which is yet to rrod) and get the new Jasper model if the single chip 360's aren't coming out until later 2009
The game looks good and the gameplay seems fine but does it seem like the player moves around at a very fast pace, seems like he's almost skating on ice.
They should slow down the gameplayer run speed and make the game more suspenseful instead of just run n gun, make better use of your subject matter.
First gameplay footage I've seen for this game and I have to say it looks great. Only concern is the controls for this game. Jumping is not really an easy task in first person.
If Sega got their act together and started producing quality innovative games again instead of copying ideas from other developers and rushing their products then this would actually be a good idea for the next MS console.
Really, and when did this happen?
Would MS have to pay EA money for the second one to be exclusive? I thought I read something before talking about how MS has a contract for the first two Gears of War and Mass Effect games.
Okay why would someone disagree with OC. He's stating his opinion that he had fun with alot of games already this year, and across all three consoles too. How can someone disagree with that? My guess, a fanboy, more likely sony with all of them running around here recently since the sony nuthouse got shutdown, disagreeing because he mentions and enjoyed games from another system that is not their system of choice.
I hope they fully utilize the aspect of having a dog as a companion. I remember in one of the first trailers I saw for this game I was impressed by the feature. I just hope the realism of raising a family and having a pet aren't lofty promises and turn out to be dissapointing.
Rick, do you plan on purchasing Gears of War 2?
I dont know if you have noticed watdafuk but the 360 articles tend to have more PS3 fans commenting on them then 360 fans, whereas the trolling of PS3 articles by 360 fans is certainly alot less.
Look at Rick for instance, as a blatant PS3 fan, he has nothing better to do in the run of a day then look and discuss an article based around a game he will never buy. If an article comes out about a game he's not interested in why waste the time to read the article and then make commen...
I totally agree, you said it better than I did. I should have clarified better but I never meant MGS wasn't popular as in doesn't sell well but it does lack that mainstream popularity that GTA4 and Halo3 has.
MGS3 was a good game, I liked the story in that one, but because MGS2 was rooted in the future it had this big convoluted technological story and didn't emphasize the characters enough, like you needed to be a rocket scientist on acid to understand what exactly was going on...
Ace Ventura you're the idiot and based on your other comments, definitely a fanboy. Yes the series has sold well, primarily based on the awesomeness of the first game (which is why the second is so close in sales to the first), but since then it has been declining in sales. Since MGS2 left a sour taste in alot of people's mouths (mine included) it hasn't had the appeal it once had. Admit it, the high point of the series was the first game. I'm a huge MGS fan and all I'm basically saying is MG...
Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but MGS isn't that popular either. Yes it sells decent and the series always gets favourable reviews, but the average consumer who doesn't troll around gaming forums or check gaming websites everyday aren't looking forward to MGS4. If you ask the casual gamer (which is a large percentage of the video game market) what games they are interested in it's always the same response, Halo, GTA, Gears of War, God of War, Gran Turismo, Final Fantasy, Mario, and a few o...
Thanks. It's true, all the controversy surrounding the game and with only two previous games produced by Guerrilla Games I wasn't sure what to expect but I want this game, even more than Resistance 2.
Reason why I haven't picked up a PS3 yet is all my friends have 360's so we all play online on that system and the exclusive single-player games for the PS3 that I want such as FF13 and God of War 3 aren't coming out yet. MGS4 is not a system seller for me personally. Loved MGS1, bu...
The dvd drive is the worse part of my 360. Yet to have any heat problems but games like Saints Row and now GTA4 always get disc read errors after playing them for a few minutes and I have to turn the console back on then it works fine for as long as I play except its quite noisy.
I was thinking about getting a new dvd drive for the 360, does anyone know which one is the best and has the least amount of problems. It's hard to find information on google without all kinds of hd-dvd ...
There are a number of old properties that Microsoft can take advantage of to fend off the PS3 and Wii well into 2009.
- Mechwarrior/Mechassault
- Age of Empires/Mythology
- Zoo Tycoon (appeal to the casual market they seem to want)
- Midtown/Motocross/Monster Truck Madness
- Blood Wake (Loved the original)
- Crimson Skies
- Brute Force
- Asheron's Call (or get WoW on their at a cheap monthly price, then you'll see lots of system sales) ...
