I agree there is a framing issue but the Bad News Bears tag belongs to HD-DVD. A poor try...a very poor try. Other than Paramount making a deal they will eventually regret, the good news belongs to the top selling Blu-ray camp.
Warhawk has some issues. One of them is not MP only. Saying MP only is a fault is saying titles like Warcraft have a fault.
No, the issue with Warhawk is one that could have been easily fixed. They should have had MP and then an thing called Arena. Arena would have been a map with no AI, just non firing turrets. This would have provided the player an opportunity to practice tuning their controls, and using various weapons on missile, gun, and bombing runs.
Back off of Round Peg. What he is saying is he can't play a game unless all of the critics rate it highly. It doesn't matter what gamers say.
He is being smart with his time. Why waste your time making up your own mind when you can just have some critics do all of the work for you and then tell you what to think.
Imagine all of the freedom you will have by not having to worry about individual likes and dislikes and can just deal with that which someone else tel...
Haze will be good I think but not another HALO. Not by far. Part of the problem with Haze isn't the game, it is the dev team. There is such a thing as too much info. It is like seeing those trailers that give you the entire movie. What's left to see.
On the otherhand, Haze isn't going to be Killzone. But it won't be Killzone 2 either.
Bioshock is art and HALO is not? You know nothing of art or you would realize that HALO is masterful, artistic storytelling. Here is the best part.
It is the art of enjoyment and a world of fnas are not wrong about that. Let's see which game manages to have a social impact despite one ogf the titles being offered on 2 platforms. Bioshock is a good game but it misses the greatness HALO has achieved THUS FAR by a country mile.
Even with my order of HALO 3 I am still picking up another title. Kengo Legend of the 9 has been too long in coming. There have been enough samurai games with androgynous 15 year old blond what ever they are characters in them. It is good to see something with a shred more authenticity.
Stranglehold? I was going to get the PS3 version so I could snag the movie but after the 360 demo it feels like a rail shooter. Guys popping out of doors that lock behind them...spawn central.
It's not that big of a deal? You are just lost in the throes of being a fanboy. 8 weeks. 8 weeks I had no console. Okay pal? All of the great games aren't worth a flip when my 360 is broken. I can't spin them on my finger, put them in a Xbox 1, or play with the game cases. Broke, okay you little acolyte. Broke.
No games? What time is it? I just got up from playing Warhawk all night.
I also have games on the 360.
Wait. You mean idiot fans that worship one console do not have any games to play. You mean dirtbags that are so ignorantly blind they would miss great gaming by being the unofficial buttlicker for one console. Now I understand what you mean. Good point.
One of the reviews I read stated it perfectly, "There is no uber weapon in the game that overshadows the others". Balance.
The learning curve is a bit steeper than a BF title and the lack of a tutorial or a dead practive map to test your controls is a flaw in the game.
But once you get it (Pro Flight settings in the control Setup are perfect for those of us that have flown flight sims), you get it. It isn't just flight. We had some vicious battles on f...
You wrote "Stop talking out of your @$$ and show us your sources that indicate that the xbox 360 drop 60% in sells."
Nice grammer. It is your own indictment.
I quoted that so you can't change it later when you start trying to wipe the egg off your face, you mental midget. Morons like you should learn how to use google except it would interfere in the time you spend bowing before your 360.
You are going to read that in the morning and try to figure out what you wrote. I think competition is good. I wish to hell I hadn't had issues with two Xbox 360's so far. But facts are facts and anyone that isn't wearing a fanboy hat so tight it cuts off blood flow to the brain can see where all of this is going. Next year belongs to Sony.
On top of that the DVD wars are going to finally come to an end and by mid next year Paramount will be rethinking their decision. Sony has ...
That is the point. The games are different and thus cover a wider range of people instead of catering solely to one area of the demographic. By the time you start adding titles like Little Big Planet, exclusives from Rockstar, SOCOM 4 ( not Confrontation) which no one has seen yet but will be bowled over when they do, it is easy to see the shift.
People like you crack me up because you are the most easily fooled. Look at the features on the PS3 then add up the cost of add-ons to the 360 to bring it to the same level and see how you like your astronomical foot in mouth sandwhich.
No it isn't a matter of time either. Actually it is the other way around. The 360 dropped 60% in sales versus the same time last year in the last reported quarter. Meanwhile the PS3 sales are starting to move. By the time MGS4 releases, you are going to see Sony stepping it out in sales. The console has more longevity in it. 360 sales plateaued and then promptly nosedived. HALO 3, although I have it reserved, isn't going to change that.
No, I will play them on my 360..when it is working. After those I will be playing Killzone 2, MGS4 and a host of others on a machine I don't have to worry about.
When my first 360 died I got a PS3 'until I got my 360 back'. Well that was it. The only titles I get for the 360 now are exclusives. If I have to wait for a game, I'll wait because the PS3 is now my primary platform. It feels like a next gen machine. I don't want to be without a console again and all you have to do is play Graw 2 to see how much better that game looks.
Living like an ostrich, poking your head in the sand and pretending these issues are not legitimate is pure idiocy. I had a launch 360 that was perfect. I thought, "these stories are made up." Then mine ringed out as well. The refurb they sent? DOA. Now almost two months and no box. They say it is enroute. Meanwhile I have already ordered a HALO3 edition.
Make no mistake and someone mentioned it above. If you think this problem was bad before, then just wait until HAL...
