One of my favorite games this gen. The bullet time with the sniper never gets old. For those that don't know, you have to direct the bullet to your target. As the game progresses, the AI actually try to fake you out. The sliding kick with the double tap was a lot of fun as well.
I wasn't expecting much after the demo BUT the game is very entertaining and has a beautiful art style.

I haven't really seen much about it other than Microsoft is reformatting the dvd to open up a little more space. Some of Microsoft's latest research could really use every last drop of space so it seems Microsoft is testing out the new discs and format. One thing is for sure, it won't be for more cut-scenes. The demo they released a little while back showed that loud and clear. Mega Meshes was so short of space that they couldn't add music.

Microsoft is not interested in selling Steam. Valve is trying to bring as many people/gamers over to their Steam network, even as going so far as to include a FREE Portal 2 PC game to all the PS3 gamers that buy Portal 2 on PS3.
Microsoft, right or wrong want to set up their own XBL on Windows ( which they are and have ) which of course will be a direct competitor to Valve and Steam.
While it's nice Valve wants everybody to get along, make ...

Geo will write a book and sell the rights to a movie and will be a hero to many. In his spare time under a new name, maybe in a country that doesn't support mega companies like Sony ( CHINA ) it will be his goal in life to hack every and any Sony product to ever be made. This will only teach the hacker community how to hide their dirty deeds better, cover their a$$es and the electronics community can all thank Sony for giving the hackers even more rights and legal angles to use...

You can't have one without the other. It's all tied together and if any one is significantly less than the other, then the title won't do as well.
In regards to PC, it's a non factor. The PC community want everything for free. You will see more and more devs move over to consoles. COD showed that with one big hit you can retire and live happily ever after.
Ubisoft could continue doing what it's doing. The Wii has an installe...

Since NPD has been neutered from releasing factual data based on REAL sales and Mr Pachter has been specifically told NOT to release sales data from NPD, he's had to become more stealthy with his " predictions. His numbers sure seem very specific.
Big surprise is Kinect SELLING 10 million units with really nothing but launch titles.
Either way it's positive news except for Nintendo Wii which seems to have reached it's saturatio...

I would expect Sony to out sell any 360 game or console in Japan BUT the numbers are pretty bad all round. If anything, Microsoft is doing better with Kinect than the 360 console it self.
Sony can't be happy with these numbers. Microsoft will have a lot of Kinect games as seen at the TGS and they are releasing this summer. No wonder Sony has been trying to shore up their profit margin going into E3 by closing several development houses and slashing costs.

I disagree with his statement that nothing has really changed in the games ( consoles anyway ) from 2006 till now. The difference from a launch title to the stuff you will see this year and are already seeing is night and day.
There will ALWAYS be a limit to what you can do. It doesn't matter how much processing power or memory you have. It's a never ending thing kinda like Moore's law which interestingly he mentions when he says " in the last 18 mo...

It's far from the best ever. I really am enjoying my third play through but the bugs alone drop Crysis 2 from best of anything list. It's ONE of the best and lets leave it at that.
There have been so many great games released this gen and 2011 will be the best yet. Let's revisit this topic in December and see how the rest of the year went. Rage, Gears 3, UC 3, Resistance 3, COD, Battlefield, Forza 4 and whatever else is confirmed at E3 will all be con...

Definitely PC low setting nonsense there. I've played the game twice and have started the third play-through on super soldier, I don't remember seeing anything like that!
Crysis 2 is really 2 games. The before E3 2010 and the after E3 2010. There were some levels that were an older build but trust me, when the game hits it stride, you'll notice.
Seeing as there seems to be an update every time I start up the game, I believe the last...

What a bunch of nonsense from these guys, enough is enough. Make your game and let the gamers decide what is what. Black ops is the highest selling game NOT Bad company or MOH.
One minute all devs are lazy and are treading water and the next Dice's game won't be any worse than any other game out there at the moment. They need to stop talking, show some REAL game footage on consoles and let the market dictate what it wants.

I am Andrew Ryan and I am here to ask you a question:
Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?
No, says the man in Washington; it belongs to the poor.
No, says the man in the Vatican; it belongs to God.
No, says the man in Moscow; it belongs to everyone.
I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something
different. I chose the impossible. I chose...
Rapture.
A ci...

The 360 version will be better than the average PC version and if you have something like $1200+ invested in your PC you should be able to run the final game at near maximum settings.
It will be interesting to see what will happen at E3 as Microsoft has a lot invested in COD and as has been the case in the last few E3's, COD has kicked off the show for Microsoft. Maybe Sony will let EA kick off their show but I doubt it.
I know this, the demo that...

" a game console must launch with the best technology available at the time in order to stay relevant for a long period. And that's been PlayStation's philosophy "
Ahhh, I think he forgot about the BILLIONS in losses the first 3 YEARS ( O_o ) NOT the best business plan there Jack. It's wasn't Jacks fault of course, they hired the crafty AMERICAN to clean up the mess Ken " bozo " Kuta-dumba$$ created. The Blu-ray has been a boat an...

I'm surprised he has time to discuss one of the best selling consoles and handhelds in the history of gaming while shutting down development houses, closing factories, and attacking/suing little anorexic looking 21 year olds.
Seriously, I like Jack but this just sounds like extreme desperation and frustration. Complaining about the Wii motion device when Sony completely ripped it off is just plain dumb. Making a commercial with Kevin Butthurt and himself for ...

What EA and Dice have done is no different than a company showing CGI game play and try to mislead their way through the year, especially with E3 coming up and then drop an inferior product at the end, ask for full price and laugh at the console gamers.
It's just idiotic to call devs out saying your game is the best with the best engine and everyone else is treading water and then have the audacity to claim it will look no worse than any other game out there?...

COD in not about " just killing " people. What a dumb thing to say and shows he knows nothing about the subject.
There are entire books written on the topic. COD is popular because of the multi-player and if you ever played in a clan or a group of friends against another clan or group of friends then you might get a little clue. It's like saying football ( or any sport ) is just about throwing a ball or running around. Maybe he should ask his ten ye...

Looks like the COD hype train is beginning. MW3 will be the best FPS releasing in November right along side the anniversary edition of Halo Ce of course.
Battlefield will be like COD only not as good. Still waiting for the mouth that roared to stop hiding behind PC footage and show their game on consoles. I wonder why they haven't? Crytek claimed that all their footage was console footage and it was true. Yet here we have Dice saying their engine is the best and...

EVERYTHING you buy has a disclaimer. If you take the time to read it, you would see that the threat of a fine or jail time is right there is black and white. NOBODY CARES!!!
Sony didn't win anything and Geohotz is a hero to many now. Watch and see how they make a movie and sell books on Geo's big adventure. Sony opened the floodgates I'm afraid. EVERY desperate glory hound will want Sony to sue them and make them rich. Sony couldn't even prove Geo kn...
