3 Halo games in 3 -4 years(4 games if you count PC) and people still act excited over M$ uncreativity on oversaturating a game?
M$ Geniuses -"What should we put out to face the competition?"
(After 2 weeks of non-stop meetings and brainstorming 7 days a week)
M$ Geniuses-"Heads Halo, Tails Gears of War"
Every year M$'s answer to everything else is Halo or Gears of War....Thankfully this will end soon.

Super Street Fighter 4 has NEVER been $18 anywhere except your imagination. Why make up that story to make it look like youre a hussler to people you'll never meet?
He's trying to insinuate that Sony went with a "wii copy" eventhough Sony had the tech started 10 years ago. The 360 is actually a copy of the Sega Activator with an Eyetoy mixed in......We all know how the Activator bombed as it never worked as advertised....ala kinect.
Nintendo has mastered marketing like no other gaming company. The NES had probably the worst controller (and games with slippery controls) that have ever been. Still they changed the way people played game the first d pad. Joysticks are more expensive to make vs d pads, so it was probably to cut costs. Nothing really special about the NES, except the aggressive advertising, they put that $ in the SNES obviously. I believe their 5th Symphony was the N64, being the second most powerful car...
There were Sega Genesis/SNES games going for $60-$75 back in the early 90's. Games have been around that price point before, but I dont see it jumping any higher as the tech comes out too fast these days. For example, SNK's Neo Geo AES was a good 10-15 years ahead of everyone else in the early 90's and its games haven't been truely ported until recently (PS2/PS3 days). Those games started out @ $200, but were exactly the same quality as arcade games.
Is this 1988?? Why still play the few games on PC? Ohh I get it you are thinking of the incredibly over saturated shooter games.....Yep PC has those (walk around and shoot from far away, thats so fun and hasn't gotten INCREDIBLY OLD!!!!!!!!!!). I dont see how playing with a keyboard on a small screen upclose is fun, since its 2010 and not 1988.
"lolzers" is one butt hurt fangirl
LOL@ outrageous "Maybe he should ask what will Sony and Nintendo will do if Kinect sells, like many analysts are saying 4-5 million units over the holidays"...........Bigge st BS comment of the day, kinect barely works in live demos (Which they had to wait a year to even start, subbing in recorded demo's at gaming shows) . kinect will do just as good as the Sega Activator did.
Lots of sheep getting excited over the most boring genre of gaming (The incredibly oversaturated market of carbon copy shooting games...walk around and shoot at people far away...how fun.
There are nothing but shooter fans who own a 360, ofcourse they will sell much more. Is there anything else to play other than the carbon copied, incredibly oversaturated shooters on a 360????
PC's are for shooting games, forced to play on a small screen. Every other type of game (unless you like the dying RPG type of games) are for consoles. 99% of PC fangirls only like it for pirating games, but will never admit it.
Dellis must be a FPS fanslave....If a game isnt a carbon copied FPS like they all are, then he wont like the game.
The incredible over-saturation of shooters is ridiculous, walking around with weapons and shooting from far away...LAME!!!! By the amount of shooters being made, its obvious that they are a fast fading fade. Fighting games are coming back along with adventure games....because they are actually fun and not carbon copied like EVERY SHOOTER.

How was SF4 ass?? Because you cant parry everything and you actually need a strategy?
SF3 was not a key sales any thing, Alpha 3 was the last good SF game until SF4. It took 10 years to come out with SF because of the horrible horrible sales of SF3. Few were/are interested in that game and Capcom needed to redesign SF.....thus SF4. They barely got permission to even make SF4 because of what SF3 did.
Just because there is sex/nudity in every HBO show doesn't mean its "mature" or great. The Office has the best writers and by far is the best show on tv.
The incredibly oversaturated shooter market doesn't need another title. But most companies dont wanna be creative, so they just make a shooting game. Walking around with guns....lame!!!
LOL@ the xbox fangirls starting to show up thinking Blu-rays are easier to hack than DVD's....eventhough DVD's have been hacked for a decade.
