We didn't see this "Blu Ray victory doesn't matter" sentiment crop up until after Sony had won that contest. It was like the format war was important right up until some people didn't like who the winner was and then it didn't matter anymore.
So basically you have no problem with getting hit once and never, ever, being able to recover from it as you are taken from 100% life to 0%?
I recall when the 360 was ahead, or reportedly doing better, VGChartz was gospel and anyone who questioned it was just in denial. Now all of a sudden VGChartz is the false prophet and all whom go there have nothing but a fire filled pit awaiting them in the here after.
All Microsoft has ever done as a company is copy others, buy out others, pay off others, and bully others. That's how they do business.
"Mythic's biggest hit "Dark Age of Camelot" in 2001"
Don't say that out loud, you'll make them cry.
No company has ever screwed up their own game as badly as Mythic did with Dark Age.

I've been testing it too. Everything I said comes from my own experience. There is nothing 'fresh' or 'new' about the game and as I said it could have come out five years ago for all the innovation they bring to the party. It's the same thing we always see... Bug hunts and fetch quests. It falls completely flat in terms of feeling 'purpose driven'. As the article stated, you do the same things at level 20 you did at level 1 and there's no sense of connection or purpose to an...
"the game's unique strengths are readily apparent within the first few hours of play."
What? You mean when you're doing the bug hunts and fetch quests just like you do in every other MMO? In what way was that unique?
"have come away impressed that the things that are fun at level 1 are still fun at level 20."
I'm sorry again, but... Say what now? You're doing the same thing at level 20 that you were doing at level 1? This is suppose t...
If you're looking at a Square Enix take over of Tecmo, what you're really looking at is the high possibility of larger number of Tecmo titles going multi platform since that seems to be the current way Square Enix does business.
Which is the smartest way.
Is it just me or does something about this game put you in the mind of Psi Ops? The character from Psi Ops even looks like an older version of the character from Force Unleashed.
I wasn't particularly impressed but I didn't think it was bad either. The comment that somebody else made about it not being on their radar before the demo and not being on their radar after the demo is about right for me too.
It's called "Microsoft throwing money at JRPG developers to suppress the PS3"
Dawn of War 2 will probably be vastly superior to Starcraft 2
But all you have to do is slap "Blizzard" and a familiar name on a box and people will snap it up.
If they actually fix the problems and make it a good game for PS3 then the day of release they better patch it for everyone else too.
Konami and Square Enix do some good stuff too.
Compared to Blizzard however, they are silver medal material.
If at any point a Resident Evil game was ever scary, I missed it.
They've never been scary unless you were an arachnophobic.
You people do realize that by computer standards the 360 is completely obsolete and the PS3 very nearly is right? By the time a console is designed and the very first one is built the technology used to design it has in most cases already been improved upon. By the time a console actually makes it to market the technology in it has already been improved upon several times.
The speed at which technology advances is mind blowing.
Hyped beyond all measure and it's mediocre at best and people are pitching a fit because Gamespot gave it a 5.5?
I don't think Gamespot scored it down, I think other sites scored it up more than it deserves. For some odd reason there still exists this weird 'pro-360' and 'anti-PS3' sentiment sitting just under the surface of everything in which 360 games are given the benefit of the doubt and PS3 games are nit picked to death.
"the all-new ‘Heroic Driving Engine’ — a unique technology that generates incredible high-performance moves at 180 miles per hour during breathtaking highway battles."
In other words its yet another name for "bullet time" that slows everything down so you can do a bunch of crazy maneuvers. Let me guess... It's like turbo and you have to charge it by doing various drifts, jumps, and near misses?
Am I right? I'm right aren't I?
It doesn't matter how badly WoW might suck or how moronic Blizzard might be in their management of it. Blizzard is still the flat out best when it comes to making these cinematic scenes. No game company even comes close to them.
Take it... take it like a *censored* you electronic *censored*... I got your game over right here! I got a joystick you can't handle!
What? Why is everyone looking at me?
I would argue that the move is both bold and desperate. What will be truly desperate is when Microsoft will claim to have "won" over the PS3 at some point.
