It will happen by having Microsoft throw money at developers left, right and center. Microsoft has never been a company that competed on the merits of its products and has always been a company that bought and bullied its way to success. For all that I hear people scream at EA for its business practices or more recently decry Gamestop for buying up previously great game stores... I never hear anything from anybody about the business practices of Microsoft and how completely slime ballish they...

Please take your business elsewhere, I know I will from now on.

You know what they would call this if it were another game?

A patch.

So after years of Gamestop being an unchecked pawnshop with no regulation somebody is finally cracking down? The sad part is, Gamestop knew this was coming sooner or later and just decided to deal with it when the time came.

The sad part is that this still won't prevent them from trying to ram pre-orders and garbage subscriptions down your throat or treating their employees like garbage for not doing a good enough job screwing customers out of money.

I will never shop at Gamestop again. They make a living ripping people off.

I think I'm the only PS3 owner in the world that does not see what everyone else sees in LBP.

360 owners, how could you make Army of Two your 5th best selling game this year? You have better games than that, go buy them!

I will grant you that Warcraft is a ripoff of Warhammer, but then most high fantasy settings are just ripoffs of Lord of the Rings.

Warcraft is in no danger, at all, in any way shape or form. There are not that many people currently playing WoW that will leave it for another game and I promise you that at least 30-50% of those who do leave WoW for WAR will be back in WoW before long.

We'll see where Warhammer is in another year but I suspect like every other "Ki...

Yes, they learned their lesson with the Pro Street demo. A lot of people were excited about Pro Street until they played that demo and saw what it was actually like.

It's interesting that this game happens to be named Rage, because every time it's brought up that's precisely what it seems to cause. You do of course realize that unless this game is the best thing ever made that its going to be insulted worse than Lair by its detractors... Right?

Once again we have an article about how bad off Blu Ray is and I say once more... Everyone thought this fight really mattered until Sony won and now all of a sudden it makes no difference.

"They couldn’t figure out the secret sauce behind GTA, in the last generation, but that doesn’t matter now. We have more powerful machines, with a bigger user base"

I mean its a good article and all but what is the writer smoking when he makes a statement like that? The PS2 alone has a greater install base than all three current generation consoles combined much less what the numbers look like when you add in the XBox and the Gamecube.

I say this is a PS3 owner...

I think this is all a ploy to get around the fact that the PS3 owners know this game sucks. So they're claiming that its a new and improved version and trying to make you feel all smug about the 360 owners not getting the fixes.

And the truth will be that it still sucks and they're just trying to con you in to buying it.

Once more, what undeniable truth am I in denial of? In order to be in denial, I'm going to have to be saying something ISN'T true. Please direct me to the point where I said anything WAS NOT true.

"an unconscious defense mechanism used to reduce anxiety by denying thoughts, feelings, or facts that are consciously intolerable."

I am stating that the reason for the Microsoft price cut and surge in sales has to do with the fact that they have been slowly but ...

What, precisely, am I denial about? Do you even know what that word means? Because it doesn't mean what you think it means. Denial is when something is undeniably true and you don't want to admit it.

By the way, if you want to see the face of denial, look in the mirror. If throwing out petty insults was the best you could do instead of... You know... making any sort of counter argument then it is you who are in denial.

By "Working On" they mean they kinda sorta maybe in a back burner way might have sort of maybe been kinda working on them but the fact that Wii has been so successful has nothing to do with the timing.

WoW has "Matured" has it?

I had no idea the development cost of Lich King set them back that much. A quick infusion of cash from this gimmick should help them.

"After getting our clock cleaned for months we moved our system to the bargain bin and this is allowing us to make false claims about how 'well' we're doing."

6474d ago 10 agree9 disagreeView comment

The Microsoft way of doing business is now and has always been to throw money at something until you get what you want. So start selling 360s at bargain bin prices, throw money at developers to get exclusives, and spend like a drunken sailor just so you can say you "won" something.

It was like this to a lesser extent last generation. Microsoft ended the last gen 1.5 billion in the hole and "beat" the Gamecube... A system that actually made money even if it did...

It is important that we have the "Is PC gaming dead" discussion at least three times a week because by this point we definitely haven't seen the discussion played out from every single solitary possible angle five ways from Sunday.

I'm seriously starting to think that this may be yet another Page Hit Whores topic.
