Yup after two and half years in developement Sony has really dropped the ball in Home. Yes it is the beta but you guys do know that Home was suppose to be released Fall 2007 right? So after two and half years they finally just get the beta out and its a pretty boring place! Seriously the funnest thing to do in Home is make your avatar a girl w/ skirt and run around and count how many guys try to hit on you! There are some sad people out there including myself for doing that! lol
Tried out Home at a buddies house last night. The only funnest thing to do is to have your avatar as a girl and count how many lame guys try to hit on you! LOL! Seriously other than I think HOME was pretty boring!
You can partly blame Sony on this one. They didn't help Ubi at all at advertising Haze.. You look at all third party 360 exclusive M$ advertise the hell out of it! I don't know why Ubi just made haze multi. I guess that's what you get when you try to sell games to movie buffs!
can't wait to see what the next Xbox will offer. The 360 really had a lot of innovation when it first came out. Achievements, wireless controllers, being able to power up your consoles remotely, Xbox guide button, and all the great XBL features that were added with the 360. NXE was a great addition to the 360 specially the netflix streaming. Can't wait to see what will be offered next. I expect the next Xbox will have blu ray drive with a better capabilities than the PS3s drive. It will be f...
I expect them to charge for PSN because the competition(M$)can do it and PSN seems pretty comparable to XBL. If they don't then expect less feature to be added on PSN and Home will probably get canned because of the high cost. Unless a bunch of companies start advertising in Home to help support the cost of developement.
I dont get it.. M$ owns both the 360 and windows so I see that as both profiting them.
M$ would get bashed to oblivion because its suppose to be a premium service since it paid! Home seems like a good idea but the problems its being having with Sony not being able to handle the load and Sony's financial woes I don't see this being released in its full form till 2010! Seriously this was announced almost 2 years ago and was suppose to launch in October 2007 and the beta just barely come out. So it took them 2 years to get the beta out and won't doubt it will take them 2 years to ...
Europeans love it though!
This is a very confusing... the 360 has more user base and according to NPD sells the most games.. So kinda weird that developers are making more money on the PS3 than on the 360.
I agree with FishHD.. Sony was the top dog for the last two gens but the reason there are a lot of hate towards them is they were very arrogant. Remember all the talk Sony was doing before the PS3 launched?
"Next Gen doesn't start until we say so."
"People will work to buy the PS3."
"PS3 is still too cheap."
"Rumble was last gen."
-Shoving a movie format down peoples throat!
etc etc etc...
...
yeah good thing M$ provided Netflix streaming so we can still watch movies on my 360!
"With this in mind, the PS3 has only a relatively small margin to make up, and once the HUGE PS2 base can be convinced to buy a new console, many of them will choose PS3 (given that the price drops sometime in the next half year or so)."
Now if your talking about the margin between the PS3 and the 360 yeah its a small margin(8 million)but if you compare it to the wii which is right now at 40 million -17million ps3s= 23 million console margin. I love how people disrega...
Didn't the movie come out already in MGS4? hhehe
Just like beastmaster said this is just a typical FPS shooter. Nothing special here.
Funny how PS3 fans don't care about sales anymore when last gen and just a few years ago everybody was saying PS2 sold 100 million plus, Xbox 25 million GC 20 million... Now sales don't matter huh? Ok lets just keep the PS3 sales at 25 million and see if Sony comes out with the PS4!
God of War 3 isn't going to be as big as the PS3 fans here think. If God of War 2 only sold 2.35 million(according to vgchartz) on the PS2 which has an install of 120 million this will no way be as big as everybody will like it to be.
"jaysquared - Good call. Oh except "I definitely need a PS3 for god of war 3". Those were the words i uttered to my friend not more than 2 days ago."
Oh okay just because your going to be buying a PS3 for GoW 3 another 5 million people are going to jump right in and buy a PS3 right? There will be some sales of PS3 because of GoW 3 but is it going to make it so that next years NPD it will sale at least equivalent to the 360? IMO it will not sell as much as t...
Sorry but God of War 3 isn't going to sell PS3s.. Looking at God Of War 2 sales figures which right now has sold 2.35 million
http://vgchartz.com/games/g...
So sellings a little less than 2.5 million on a console with an install base of 120 million plus I wouldn't expect too much for GoW 3.. Gears 2 sold that much in a day on a console that has install base of 25 million!
...
well supposedly the week delay because of the music fiasco killed all the hype! lol.. Over 2 million people were ready to buy the game but because of the week delay they decided to go buy something else.. Yeah a week is a damn long time to wait for a game you really wanted! And I say PS3 fans are the most patient gamers in the world because of them always waiting for their games but they can't even wait a week.
Yes it is free but Sony could've been doing something else with their resources instead of wasting their time on home and again it is free for you but Sony still has to pay their engineers/developers/testers etc etc etc to make home.
