The Microsoft Xbox division acts like little kids -- completely immature. I mean, come on with a story like this! Major Nelson needs to personally deliver the development kit? To garner more press? To make it seem as if Insomniac is somehow now an exclusive MS developer??
Sony did not act like this when Bungie signed the deal with Activision. There was no such behavior. Jack Tretton didn't personally deliver the PS3 development kit and announce it to the press to mak...
I guess it's only right for LG, Samsung and Panasonic to advertise... Bad, Sony!
Q: Obviously LBP 2 has better graphics than LBP. How important is technical power in terms of the consoles for good graphics? The Wii is the best-selling console at the moment, but graphically it's the least powerful. Does hardware matter in terms of developing great graphics?
KE: It's a good question. Me, my first answer is no, I don't. I think good artists make good graphics. That's the truth. The pencil is the best answer. You can still do overwhelming thin...
For one thing, I read that it will have head tracking using the PS Eye.
Leaving off God of War 3 equals instant fail.
Not only does Amazon give those $10 to $20 credits for pre-orders, but their base prices are usually cheaper (I picked up RDR for $54 and got a $20 gift card) and you don't pay taxes, which brings down the price even more compared to Walmart. Finally, their trade-in prices are sometimes close to double what Gamestop will give you.
And, by the way, Amazon is fantastic at getting things to you when promised. I do a tremendous amount of shopping on Amazon and their custome...
From Wikipedia:
A sleeper hit, a.k.a. surprise hit (often simply called a "sleeper"), refers to a film, book, single, album, TV show, or video game that gains unexpected success or recognition. The term can also refer to an individual who enters a group setting and, while at first glance or first interaction seems unimpressive and dispensable, goes on to become an important part of a memorable and enjoyable experience.
RDR is a game from Rockstar, whic...

I don't think that the "leak" of KZ3 was that big a deal, considering that it was common knowledge that it was in the works. However, I think that LBP2 was a HUGE reveal before E3. It is getting me excited for the fact that if they can allow both of these games to become public (with Sony actively pushing info out on LBP2), then what the heck could we have in store for us at E3?
I want to see Agent, FFVXIII, and the Last Guardian with release dates, and some ...
The Move announcement in the brochure does not match the rest of the brochure, graphically or color-wise. It just looks like it doesn't fit. Also, everything else has a price. If it was a real ad, it would have a price as well. Plus, wouldn't it be more prominently displayed?
And Sony has already said that it would be out in the fall.
By the way, it potentially really sucks for Xbox Live customers who already pay to play online.
Do I like the idea in general? No.
But, what this move will cause is companies like Gamestop to DROP their used game prices, which are insane as it is... (buy back used $60 game the day after release for $25 and resell as used for $55... WTF???!!!) ...
So, if Gamestop is forced to drop prices (because who will pay $55 for a used game if it will cost $10 to play online) it will be better for consumers... If you don't want to play online, then you will bene...
"Sony has been showing while Microsoft has only been talking but, when Microsoft speaks true power is and has been shown."
No offense to HHG, but can anyone tell me what the heck this means?? I don't mind HHG as much as some on this site, but if you are going to do a blog and call yourself a journalist, please learn to write and use proper grammar!
Down to an 82 on Metacritic. The only thing probably keeping it in the 80s is the 100 from the Escapist, the game's only perfect score. The majority of the scores are below 90.
"Those who have not accomplished sometimes deride those who have."
I guess you are channeling Steve Jobs with that comment?
FYI, people are entitled to make observations when it comes to public figures and companies that make public comments. If every other company can develop for the PS3 (albeit some better than others), then logically Valve does not want to develop (or can't) for one of the following reasons:
1. They are to...
"The game is also pretty forgiving so you usually hits the ball even if it is a little too late or too early in its kind."
Isn't this called "lag"?
The company that recently said (Aaron Greenberg) that they were not looking at 3D for the Xbox and there were not plans to do so? Hmmm... Interesting. And I'm sure that the media will end up reporting how MS revolutionized 3D gaming! /s
UC1 is also my only platinum! I always have plans to go all the way on a lot of games and often get close to some other than UC1, but lost interest.
You are SOOOO right... see my post above. It is embarrassing the way the MS Xbox division acts.
