"only those using specially devised custom firmwares would be at risk"
HAHA, hackers/pirates! [We've been over this....they don't do it for homebrew; its functions could easily be done on a run of the mill computer, since they actually have a full idea of how the hardware works] Get robbed BLIND. You've EARNED it.
"GC version > PS2 version"
People made such a big deal about the PS2 version's slight graphical differences, and it ended up being the better version as a whole. The Ps2 had a bunch of GAMEPLAY fixes from the GC version, like that part where there is that orge (or whatever it is) in the narrow passage way, and they fixed it so that the rock that falls is in a not-nonsensical spot. The much sharper cutscenes were a MUCH bigger difference than the gameplay gr...
When sold with a plan, I'm sure the price will be bearable.
By the end of the year, please :)
We've been waiting for a while now.
Pirates, accept it; you're thieves. Don't pretend like you aren't. You care about yourself a whole heck of a lot more than the game industry or any specific series/franchises.
And stop making spins claiming that "piracy isn't theft" but instead borrowing, sharing, being a good fan, or whatever in the heck you come up with to cope with the guilt. You're taking something you're supposed to be paying for; that's what we call STEALING.
Erm....friendly AI looks like it could use some polish. They randomly approach enemies and shoot them from the complete open.
And I hope this guy is playing on easy.
The player doesn't know what he's doing, yet he still manages to barely get a scratch.

True, true. But how does the AI manage to get WORSE than the previous installment? I mean, I suppose they might have made adjustments for the new enemy AI (with their climbing...
"They’ve hinted earlier that the Sony NGP or PSP2 won’t be priced as high as the failed PSPGo"
Saaaaay whaaaaat? Show me a quote or GTFO. A sub-$250 NGP? That would be awesome, but I have trouble believing it.
Played the demo. Really didn't like it. BORING combat.
The voice in the review is awful. Sounds like some sort of pre-op transsexual.
I think it possibly could in terms of sales.
Think about it; what happened to Guitar Hero? They made too many, they weren't doing anything new, and plenty of other games emulated it (Or in many persons opinion...exceeded it [RockBand FTW]).
And now what's happening to COD?
They have 4+ studios working on COD stuff (3 for games, 1 for exclusively DLC).
The games are doing almost nothing new.
Plenty of FPS alternatives are relea...
I doubt will see another Spiderman 2 caliber game any time soon. That was the 1-in-a-million of the movie tie-ins, making our chances pretty slim for the future.
Then again, chance isn't technically accumulative with the past.
I sure HOPE we see a good Spiderman game, but it will take a lot of effort that a movie tie-in isn't likely to get.
There's absolutely nothing funny about this story. Who are you? Jeffery Domher? What sort of violence does it take to make you feel a little sick to your stomach, as opposed to giggling. GEEZ.
Oh, and in before idiot fanboys turn this tragedy in "ZOMG PStree fanboys are crazy!!", as if it mattered what game console she took from this obviously lonely and mentally-ill child.
You rang?
I'm glad I don't have to bother with an install. I've been downloading a lot of stuff with PS+. I should really upgrade my HDD, though. I have an 80GB and I'm starting to push it.
This article basically says "It takes the pressure off of PC's back, because piracy didn't exist on the consoles before PS3 [lol]. Consoles are holding back PC OMGOMGOMG!"
So, it's good for PC elitists, not gaming.
Definitely for NGP if true. It has 2 sticks, the touchpad to emulate the R2 and L2, and the power to play the games.
Oh no! They made the combat better and now it isn't a game that can be figured out with a calculator! What will I do without my offline WoW??
"Basic enemies are killed more easily than in Dragon age: Origins? You're kidding, right? You're not? Hoo boy... So Dragon Age II really is an Action RPG then. Where is the challenge in that?"
Action RPGs can't be challenging? That's news to me.
And what? He'd rather watch his avatar...
"they are just waiting to see if handheld can replace console"
I REALLY doubt that.
This economy HARDLY demands a new, more expensive console. Any of the big three would be total fools to release a new home console at this time. With handhelds, the risk should be lesser, with prices being smaller (That is....HOPEFULLY the NGP is cheaper or equivalent to the PS3).
Truly awful story here.
/sarcasm
Great cutscene. Whine all you want about the supposed 70 minutes worth of cutscenes, I look just as forward to them as the gameplay.
"I finally saw a helghast chick! surprised nobody has mentioned that yet"
LOL, yeah. I'm hoping for more story on the PEOPLE of Helghan, and not just the elite, though.
Microsoft not announcing exclusives until a few months before launch is a fallacy. You'll find that almost every major exclusive release was announced at least around 1 year before hand.
Let's look at 2010:
Halo Reach; announced E3 2009
Fable 3; Aug '09
Alan Wake; no, just no
SC: Conviction; no
Crackdown 2; June '09
Metro 2033; Oct 22, '09
Go ahead and look at previous recent years (launch y...
With a 50 on Metacritic, I doubt a low score is being unfair. Superman 64 could probably score a 50 in today's ridiculous review score standards.
The reviewer ABSOLUTELY justifies his reasons to give it such a score.
Killzone 3 has the better graphics AND gameplay.
Keep trying to convince yourself that anti-aliasing-less, screen-tearing Crysis 2 has better graphics than Killzone 3 on the console versions.
