I thought that with all of the current buzz surrounding Batman AA that it would be much higher on the pre-order list. Maybe, the buzz just came a little late to boost pre-orders. In my experience, most pre-orders happen well before the month of the launch of the game. Anyway, I usually only pre-order games that I think will not show up at other retailers in huge quantities.(unless I use Amazon...because they just keep dropping prices by $5- $7 all of the time)

You know, I don't think that Sony's "image" is really what the focus will be on when the "casual" consumer approaches the threshold of a console purchase. I think that most avid (read "hardcore" if you like) gamers have already made up their collective minds about Sony. Now, if by image, you are talking about increasing their marketing presence...then I totally agree. Sony DOES need to refocus their marketing campaign and center it around the increased value of t...

We ALL know...or at least those of us with even the smallest of capacities for logic...that this is contrived by lawyers. In fact, being one...YOU should know...that's what they DO. They come up with what they think is the BEST possible reason to sue under the law. (not saying all lawyers are slimy...but these class-action ones can get pretty disgusting) Now,the damage suffered is pretty ridiculous. However, couldn't the lawyers argue that EA created and manipulated the gaming "climate&q...

There have been several Vietnam shooters...but none of HIGH production value.

ON TOPIC: This article definitely has it's merits. Playing as the loosing side would be the antithesis to what we usually expect. As long as the ride is good, I don't think too many gamers would complain about the ending. It sounds crazy, but it just seems like it would work as a plot device for the story. It has been done in parts, but there always seems to be SOME hope in games like Resistance and Ki...

The last remaining survivors of the Earth going to war on a floating city-like ship. The "Founders" were the ones who were originally on the Ark (what they call the floating ship). Then, the refugees started showing up when SH!t hit the fan on Earth.
It's early, but the premise sounds pretty fun. It's third person action with a couple of twists. The bullet points seem to be the ability to level up at ALL times as ANY class, classes are switchable "on the fly", chara...

Have ya played it!?!?!? It is not possible to "button mash" your way through the ENTIRE game. Yeah...you might buy yourself a level or two, but sooner or later...you will be forced to master the combat system just to get through the various types of enemies that come at you at one time...each with it's own way to defeat it.

I agree with the tenants of the article as long as "hardcore" is related to "more adult" content. Nintendo of America has tried for a long time to be the "family" console. They wanted to paint themselves in a light where parents, who would be doing most of the buying, would feel "safe" to grab the next Nintendo and whatever game without having to worry about what is being played. (see the Mortal Kombat controversy from the 90's) Thus, when they make the...

So...umm...let me get this straight. Panties=BAD....Blood, gore, foul language, alien sex=GOOD!?!?! Oh...the logic!!!

WOW!!! You wish that Sony would "drop out" like Sega??? Then what happens to creativity and innovation??? See, without competition even the best will not strive nearly as hard. It's not a race without competition...it's just a person running by themselves. You might say...what about Nintendo??? Well, that race was won about 20 million consoles ago. Having Sony and Nintendo gives MS the incentive to HAVE to create something like Natal. You might want to be careful what you wish for, ...

This can only HELP with those 100 million or so PS2 owners make their decision to adopt the PS3 as the next gen console of choice. They won't have to abandon their videogame library to move up to next gen. I know...they could keep the PS2...but if they are anything like me...I like keeping my entertainment system more "clutter" free. Thus, one console for PS3, PS2, Blu-ray, and DVD!!! Plus, if they missed out on the PS2 (small chunk but they DO exist) they can catch up on all of the...

In the beginning, it was a pretty generic FPS. I can remember a magazine that ran the usual "preview"(when it was set to be a PS2, PC, XBOX title). The journalists weren't very excited either. I guess this is what a little focus and polish can do for a title. Nobody could have guessed that HALO would be the all consuming, "genre defining" (according to it's fans) phenomenon that you see today. It became the reason for people to be proud Xbox owners and carried Microsoft in...

I think that it is TOO easy to lose perspective on situations. Those who have wished Michael Vick death, in defense of the dogs, are JUST AS BAD...if not WORSE than Vick himself. Yes...I agree that Vick made a huge mistake and some REALLY ignorant decisions. These decisions were heinous in nature. (drowning, electricuting, and hanging of dogs) However, you want this man's LIFE!?!?
I am a lover of dogs. I have owned 5 dogs in my life, including one for over 12 years. But, even I can hav...

Crimes against humanity don't quite equal crimes against dogs. Especially when you weigh the death of millions of jews at the hands of a Hitler to a 100 or so dogs. I am a dog lover. Lost my dog to cancer after a long 13 year life. However, I wouldn't even make that leap in logic. Plus, Vick has shown something that Hussein and Hitler never did...contrition.
Vick suffered from what a lot of our young athletes suffer from. It is the syndrome in which athletes feel like they can literall...

The lowered production costs come with reducing the size of components on the inside of the console. They figured out a way to use software emulators for backward compatibility, so they removed the original PS2 chips that used to take up space. These components will be the same ones that will be in the SLIM model. All they really have to do is dedicate production lines to the SLIM...versus the original PS3 sku's. Basically, they figured out what they needed...what they didn't...and now they A...

Dante's Inferno is an EPIC....but God Of War III will BE EPIC!!! The source material for DI is truly epic in scope and there is A LOT to draw from. However, this is a FIRST attempt for them in this type of game. In that, GOW III has the HUGE edge in terms of questioning gameplay. I am intrigued by what DI could offer. I ALREADY know what GOW has to offer...GOW III just needs to be more of THAT greatness to be the best of the two. Plus, this is the supposed end of a long awaited story...how co...
