No one needs to panic...YET...but Apple is running away with everything at the moment. They are expensive but the .99 cent app and free demo's and games has people buying the ios products by the millions. Nintendo is getting it today, Sony, M$, Google, RIM, you name it, will get it tomorrow.
At least we should see some really cheap prices very soon. Nintendo has been ripping people off for far too long, it has caught up them and with Digital download being the f...

Last I heard it was pushed back or forward depending how you view such things to a January launch date.
January would fit the whole notion of trying to dump all the PSP stock that will no doubt plummet once the Vita begins making its rounds. I hate when companies pull these kinds of stunts on the non-gaming folk just trying to buy a cool gadget as a present for Xmas only to find out that they REAL new gadget released a month or two later...O_o

Xbox--Quad core, AMD graphics " package "
That would make the most sense and the best cost effective way forward. I suspect that AMD has some surprises for the next gen Xbox and as they have already said..." they will be Avatar like "...Hmmm...Halo and Avatar have blue monsters...RIGHT.

It's right there in front of everyone's eye's but many choose to ignore it. Sony is notorious for trying to re-capture past victories but that audience that has moved on. The entire Blu-ray PS3 debacle is another example trying to mimic the DvD-PS2 model...cost them billions and billions and now, Digital download is the future. I hear they are trying to bring back the...wait for it...the Walkman...O_o

What about an affordable HD upgrade??? How long can they get away with charging outrageous prices for their peripherals...O_o

It's interesting reading the fanboys not bothering to read to article but instead comment on the title...
"If we lose our way with Halo, we lose our way with Xbox, because Halo and the importance of games like CoD and other shooters, that state of the art needs to continue to move forward, and our team at 343 need to move forward with that. That's always going to be one of our success criteria "

...that is what they should of called that live demo...just amazing and while graphics has not been the main focus of the dev, I would say he is being coy...they spent a small fortune on that CGI trailer made by some of the best people in the biz...

I would think in terms of multi-player that MW3 will be the better of the two but as a whole package, Black ops with the mini-game/zombie stuff, and the fact you can play it with 4 people might get the edge.
Black ops was really two games...the old Treyarch and the new, blended MW updated Treyarch. I feel the next Treyarch COD will be incredible as they have been giving free reign by Activision to get it done in a big way...can't wait.

Wow...EA on a role. To be fair, the NCAA stuff is a modern day version of slavery that EA is not responsible for but feels a need to join in on the abuse...EA-it's business as usual. whats that, someone will be hurt or suffer hardships...who cares. We only made 200 million dollars in profit last quarter...get a job will ya.

Why haven't these guys used this amazing engine on something else???
Forza looks great but how about starting up another team and working on some thing else with this amazing tech. This gen is coming to an end and these guys are hogging this tech...what a waste.
I remember when Criterion was a REAL company and created their own middle-ware that lead to some great games, including their own try at FPS's with Black...ahhh yes, the good ole days....
No cut scenes...PLEASE!!!
.
I thought demo was fantastic and great departure from the cut scene heavy Uncharted way of telling a story. The difference was night and day.
The Tomb Raider demo was a much needed throw back to a game like Resident Evil 4 when RTE's were a diversion to the game play and IMO, no game has ever had such a wide range of RTE's as Resident Evil 4 along with puzzles, fantastic combat/shooting and story all rolled up into one...

Nintendo thinks that M$ ( and Sony ) will launch a next gen console as well and are keeping their cards to their chest as this game of who will launch and when continues...there are no secrets at this level. You can't build a console in secret tho the 360 S was pretty darn close.
Why don't they want to talk about price??? Why haven't they even released the specs??? Niny is under extreme pressure right now and they are taking on a massive amount of wat...

Gears needs a FPS version to cater to the massive FPS fanbase that exists outside the TPS Gears world. COD changed everything this gen and while I don't expect everything to be a FPS, It's crazy to me that Epic, who made a living in the FPS realm, have basically shut it out. Bulletstorm was a great game with no multi-player, which was a boneheaded move to not get in the way of their big franchise Gears.
The answer is simple...make a Gears Of war FPS game....

Whens it coming to Xbox 360??? You have to be some sort of lunatic to waste all you time and money on PC when there isn't even 2 PC's the same. That demographic has consistently shown, outside of some RTS or MMO that they rather pirate the game then pay for it.
The Xbox 360 is the perfect demographic for a well made FPS, with the best gaming contr...

You have 2 different devs making a game 2 years apart from each other, works out perfectly. Sledhammers version of COD should be EXTREME as they were the makers of the criminally underated and underselling Deadspace 1. Treyarch next COD will be phenomenal as well as Activision has given them all the resources they need. I hope to see 2, yep 2 COD next year...how great would that be. Halo should also be a twice a year launch.
Battlefield 3 is a mess which the beta...

EA is looking to punish anyone who buys and trades games...plain and simple. They make millions and millions and some bean counter somewhere said that they could squeeze those who, for whatever reason, can't afford new games or prefers to wait until a better deal comes around. It's just another example of those with the least paying for those with the most...it's all lies, these guys are full of money. Let me tell you a story about these two criminals that will now be m...

What Activision is doing is night and day different. You can buy COD MW3 and it's multi-player and the maps are all including in the game. If you enroll in the CoD Elite system, you will at very least, be given you all the map packs as part of the subscription, plus all the other features, half of which haven't even been announced.

It's sad that a blatant gimmick like 3D is even still around. Who wants to watch Tv with glasses on and then find out the technology is forcing your eyes to look in 2 different directions, potentially causing catastrophic damage to your eyes...just insane.
It's no surprise...these guys will sell their own mothers for a dollar which is why it's shocking that EA is not on board. THAT more than anything should tell you something up. EA is washing their h...
