Zelda? Mario? I would've never though of that....
I bet MS will do the same exact thing next gen. Fool the HC-gamers to buy their console and then let them hang and concentrate on that casual money. It's working extremely well so why the hell should they stop it?
I really hate to see someone like MS buying their way up and laugh all the way to the bank afterwards. It sickens me but there is nothing I can do about millions of ignorant people.
I'm affraid Sony might ditch the hc-gamers too since as it ...
Well one could argue that Sony gave early adopters rewards in form of b/c and card readers. The price was a little steep but I bought it anyway. It died and now I game on a slim PS3.
I wish I had time for Vita. I can't get enough of PS1 classics on my PSP. I'm 55 hours in FF8 atm and next in line is Chrono Cross. I will buy Vita somewhere down the line. Perhaps I get a few new feature at the same time. PS1 emulation is vital. That's why I just love my PSP. That a...
I came here wishing to see some boobs but there were none. I'm very dissapointed in this situation....
I'm a little disgusted at the fact that this way by "helping" the not so rich customers getting their hands on this console they are "forcing" them to buy 2 years of live. I've changed my mind about this completely. Now I too feel disgusted by this. Why oh why could there not be a plan like this for the console itself? Just the console. Why does it have to include a mandatory 2 years of live? Oh that's right it's MS....
Can't get enough of BF3. Happy gaming people :D
I actually liked the demo for this game.
@sikbeta
Agreed! I think Sony should offer this as an option too. There are literally houndreds of shops that offer financing like this so I don't see anything wrong or different just because this is MS. I don't understand why anyone should. It's just a regular pay-more-in-the-end-but-get-ea sier-access practice that's been around for decades.
The only thing I find a little "offending" is that this deal is available only with 2 years...
I know it's crazy right?
You guys should've seen this site in 2005-2008.
I believe the answer to your question according to SOME people is that he is a Sony fanboy/nuthugger etc... Those are the very same people who say that this site is run over by PS3 fanboys.
It's fun to read such comments as a frequent visitor to this site since 2005. True comedy.
This idea is quite ingenious I must say. I wish Sony did this too. I mean Cellphones do it, internet providers do it. I see no downside to this whatsoever. It provides an easier access (allthough naturally more expensive in the long run) to the console for people on a budget. It's a win-win people.
Dead Space 1 was such a game the first time I played it that I almost felt disgusted to continue playing at times. Do not put the easiest difficulty level and you are in for a ride my friend. DS 1 is on my top 10 of all time best games.
If people happen to fall in love to the new way Wii-U differentiates itself from the rest this analyst is wrong.
I have no idea how Wii-U tries to be different and revolutionary but if it does not succeed in getting soccer moms to fall in love with the new "thing" it does Wii-U will have an upill battle.
It's up to pure luck if you ask me but there's no way for an analyst to know this.
Yeah the game was crap. The story and the characters were so chliche and BS that I could not force myself to finish the game. It was so bad.
The game had good and functional hack and slash mechanics but that could not save the abomination some people call story and the characters. I felt embarrassed just by playing the game.
Yeah sure but that's not my point what you did there. You having a child when you are 20yo is nothing unusual. I was there too once :) Sorry to hear about your kid though...
The point was that I am no 15 yo pimplefaced teenager with no sexlife and who lives in my parents' house and i still wholeheartedly enjoy fan service. I just said the FYI part before someone accuses me of being one.
I think it has more to do with the curse (as I like to call it) o...
Cool! I love fan service. (FYI I love fan service even though I am 30yo and have 2 kids and a wife pregnant with a 3rd child LOL!)
Somehow I get the feeling that Nintendo is going to take a step further away from the gamers with Wii-U. I really don't like it.
I have way too many games so I haven't bought U3 yet. Now with this news I might get the goty edition down the road.
@ Ravenor
So people are not allowed to critisize the fact that they have no choise but to pay since all their friends are on the very same paid service? WOW MS sure hit the jackpot with people like you.
@TheRealHeisenberg
"LMAO at trying to pass off a biased opinion as common sense. Maybe I'm wrong but maybe, just maybe the majority of Xbox users are happy with the system, the games and the service."
Why did they have to laugh about PS3 not having games all the time in 2005-2008? Why did they have to predict doom on Blu-Ray every turn? Why did they blame the price of the PS3 for being too much only to turn around and give money to MS for the &...
