What is the problem. This is the gamer zone, as in judging all consoles/systems equally. At no point in the article did they neigh say or even mention the ps3 and its fall lineup. Yet you feel it necessary to go onto the comment board and bring up the completely unnecessary "xbox 360 lineup is weak" comment. Well I think that's uncalled for and should head over to the fan zone.
PS: I hate fan boys on both sides that feel they have to go and trash talk their suppose...
Starship Troopers + Pixel Junk Monsters = Savage Moon
Even if they do release it for 360 in Japan, a majority of the 360 owners in Japan own a ps3 and would probably get FFXIII for ps3 anyways. Japan loves Japanese companies.
My family has 3 xbox 360's with one of them being the core version from launch. Luckily I too have not been affected by the RRoD on any of my consoles, but I do know 3 friends who have had the problem. So just b/c we are lucky doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
As for the game scratching, I've never had a game scratch, but my Gears of War game that has never been anywhere other than in my 360 or in its case developed this weird crack that wouldn't allow the game to play anymore ...
That's true also. It's a mix of both Halo fanatics and anti-Halo fanatics. But since there aren't any real anti COD4 fanatics this story is dead in the water.
Whenever Halo retook the lead on XBL players, there was a 200+ comment thread going about how "Halo is the King" and how COD4 sucked in comparison. Now that COD4 has retaken the lead and this article won't even sniff the hottest news b/c all the Halo crazies won't be jumping on to say "Halo is the King".
BTW, guaranteed I lose a bubble/get a butt load of disagrees for saying something semi-negative about Halo fans.
Just the same way XBox fans said that Haze was AAA when it never was. Both Sony and Microsoft fans have done their fair share of attempting to sabotage/downplay/hate games for their 'rival' console.
You could tell the reviewer did not like the game, but he constanstly had to add in "but some may like it, it's just not my cup of tea". I never see reviewers do this, but I think the reviewer felt he had to do it to avoid being flame bait for xbox fans who see Too Human as a chance to humiliate Sony b/c they want it to be a million times better than Haze.
I know it's stupid because Haze and Too Human are games on opposite ends of the spectrum, but Sony fans and Xbox...
Instead of just a rehash of a classic, how about a new FFT game that doesn't suck like tactics advanced. Heck I still play FFT: War of the Lions even though I've beaten FFT and FFT:War of the Lions at least 10 times combined. I can only imagine what I would do with new job classes and another bad arse story line.
Some toy company, Sony, or MediaMolecule is dropping the ball here if they don't try to get some sackboy hackey-sack type doll on the market with the game.
It would be a big collector's item for us gamers and it might even get some parents to buy this game (and maybe even a system) for younger children because of the appearance/cuteness of the sackboy toys (don't even underestimate the stupidity of a consumer parent buying the hot item for their child).
And screw all "non-gamers" who say otherwise. :P
This article was stupid, half the stuff they used didn't even make sense. One thing they could have easily included for reasons gamers annoy non-gamers would be making up their own words and gamertalk like 'pwnage' and 'n00bs'. Heck, I'd consider myself a gamer and that annoys even me.
Truthfully I want the downloadable version so that I can be lazy and not have to get up to change the disc whenever I want to play SOCOM. I bought the disc for Warhawk and I've regretted it ever since I saw my brother just jump into Warhawk without having to move off after playing a disk game. So all in all, just ease of use is why I want the downloadable version.
I was thinking the same exact thing. Just do the normal thing and say they each offer different gameplay elements and they are awesome in their own right. You can say you prefer your game over theirs but don't say it pales in comparison and say your game is 100x better, that's just being arrogant and stuck up.
I want to get in the beta, but I want to get the downloadable version of the game, so there really isn't any need for me to pre-order the game at gamestop. So I know this sounds stupid, but can I pre-order the downloadable version since pre-ordering lets you into the beta?
I would love to see a SOTC 2, but I also wouldn't want team ICO to curve their creativity just so they can put out a new SOTC every 2-4 years to make money when they could be making new and unique games instead of focusing on another SOTC.
So like I said, catch-22; damned if you do, damned if you don't.
I like sequels to franchises that have done well enough to deserve them; however the reason I am torn on sequels is that often times the developers that make the original game that you love get 'stuck' rehashing an updated version of the same game with a new storyline, new gameplay elements, and better graphics (most of the time). This can sometimes prevent the good developers of games you love from pursuing other new IP ideas they have because they could make more money, and in the end the ...
And I don't know why anyone needs to bring console wars into this. 360, ps3, and wii all have their fair share of sequels. It's just talking about how sequels are sometimes stupid although sometimes good. I myself don't mind a good sequel every now and then, but it seems all to prevalent now a days. It seems there are more sequels than original IP's.
However I understand the reasoning behind developers who pursue making sequels. If the first game was a success you will alrea...
Or is that picture really suggesting what I think it is?
If you think that it would be easier to create level on the PC because of the keyboard/mouse they could always just allow keyboard/mouse controls for the ps3 (don't know if they said keyboard/mouse will be compatible with LBP or not). That way you wouldn't have to get 2 copies of the game (1 pc and 1 ps3) and you wouldn't have to switch between the two.
This monkey climb trees perk is gonna suck. Campers everywhere are rejoicing.
