Is the Socratic method a method of genius?

Gamestop selling refurbished PS3s with a larger HDD is EXACTLY the same as Geohotz illegally distributing stolen code and copy-protected software.

Silly article. Sony isn't going to sue over this crap. It's far from the same situation.

I keep seeing stuff like this and reviews paint a decent picture of the PS3 version, but then why would Crytech release such an ugly broken beta/demo?

Something tells me this is just a bid for hits, the reviewers have low standards (As many do these days), and the Ps3 version really is just crappier.

If Ben only played with the Move for 10 minutes, he didn't take enough time to get used to it and figure out the perfect combo of control options.

I always enjoy his reviews of games I loved the most. Like GOW3 and this.

"A study in Lying: Crytek calls Crysis 2 the 'graphical ceiling' of console graphics and continues to insist that both versions are similar"

Crytech and Bioware refuse to stop making fools out of themselves.

Crysis 2 is uglier on the PS3.
Both versions are sub-HD (PS3 with the lower resolution of the two).
EA still hasn't bothered fixing the server issues on the PS3 version.

"PC wins"

The disagrees are votes towards "Captain Obvious of the Year" awards.
...and fanboys.

*The PS3 version is more sub-HD than the 360 version (Both are sub-HD, PS3 has lower resolution).

*PS3 has blurry background details.

*Lower res textures.

Unless the final code gets some miraculous improvements (And that's quite rare), you're not fooling anyone, Crytech. You didn't reach the "graphical ceiling" on either console.

"You know there’s something wrong with video game journalism when…
... a 75%+ Metacritic rating becomes responsible for a game company's stock taking a dip"

In today's greatly inflated reviewing market, games get 8s easily for little more than being functional. To get a 75 is actually below average for a big budget game these days.

"Yeah I see what you are saying but umm gow3 and kz3 are linear"

You say that like Killzone 3 and GOD OF WAR FREAKING THREE didn't have massive sense of scale at points in the game.

And for that, I offer this hardy LOL:
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

GoW 3 and Kz3 both had huge sense of scale at points, and never stuttered a bit. Oh, and unlike any console version of Crysis 2, they did it with anti-aliasing.

I want more new IPs, but sequels don't suck.

What if Halo 3, Killzone 3, Half Life 2, Bad Company 2, etc, etc, etc never existed?

Save data and patches right on the game. Yessssss.
Reminds me of the good old days with cartridges.

You mean the ones that weren't released weeks ago with 9s and 10s? Or all of the 7s that have released recently?

The multiplayer is just Bad Company 2....

They generic-fied him. Ugh.

Totally doesn't fit the spirit of the character....but they probably messed with that, too. He'll probably have NO personality.

From what I've seen of HomeFront (Essentially all of the campaign - http://www.youtube.com/view... ), I'm not sure I believe that Homefront is bringing anything new to the genre.

This is the author's argument:
"Homefront where players who do particularly well are not only given bonuses during a game, but are also flagged by the enemy team for their performance"...

LOL, oh Bioware. As if making a shorter game, filled with cutscenes and scarred with a more tedious combat system weren't enough.

You had to take it to the next level; censor criticism, add SecuROM, and now....

....break business ethic laws!

13 million is 1/8 households in the US? I'm not so sure that's accurate.

90% of those downloads were the free version anyway.

Riiiiight, Delbert. Now that the tides have turned, it's a poor comparison. Clearly the 360 version is dark and incredibly dull.

And the pop-ins, too, geez. (No, optional install isn't an excuse....not every model has a hard-drive)

I'll bet the PS3 runs better, too. Since LoT didn't do a regular overall comparison (this is just screenshots).

@People claiming the 360 version has more AA than PS3 version:
