a flop is when a game is hyped to extremes and one sells baddly or 2 is so buggy its not worth playing
this game has not been hyped very much if at all
nor is it beaing marketed to the unwashed masses
yes i mean america
its being marketed where people have other ideas of a good time them shooting things and saing f u n00b
this game wont be a flop because it isnt hiding anything it is a camera sim it is relaxing and it is a graphical showcase
...
not every adult wishes to spend there time blasting random alains in grey rooms
a lot of people like this kind of stuff because they have different tastes
its allowed you know
i say this sells 400k games inside 3 months not a lot but decent
not everygame needs to be about killing if this was a hunting game i wouldnt get it
hell i dont actually plan to run the 'game' itself il be happy looking at the nicly animated lions

i had to watch a friend try to use a pandoras battery to hack his psp1k
fortuently the battery was for a slim and didnt work

but i will dl divxed copys of what i own
illigal maybe

same with pc games
i own legit all of...
im not likly to enjoy a game if it requires more then a very very passing knowedge in its subject matter
if too human explains who all the gods are and whats there purpose and why a valkrie reses you and such then good
if not an you get a picture of a mechanical angel saying come on time to fight again
with no explanation of what it is or why its important it will turn me off the game regardless of what else
@toughname
sorry halo 3 doesnt really inovate much halo did inovate some
as for epic yes its 'epic' in scale meaning its a big world
epic storys dont always equal good storys
if h4 isnt about the master chief it wont sell nearly as much
as for john117 himself corny lines and fancy armor does not a hero make
ill take sands of times monolaugues over chiefy anyday
and before you ask yes i have played it
i f...
it depends on your definition
ico is a masterpeice because of its stark simplicity it is a save the princess story but there no pile of weapons no hp no level is austre in its design
OoT is a masterpiece in the zelda arcs its the perfect example of zelda reinvisioned majoras mask and twilight princess both mimic OoTs wow factor
sotc made my jaw drop at the first colosos
in terms of wow factor knowing this was the first of many to fight

ok that was a waste of 3 minites of my time
however one intersting idea was mentioned
could we not have a 360/ps3thread with an agreed list of sites that are overly hostile biased
most sites are ok they lean one way or another
but this site and some others are gust a waste
if 512 chips are currently cheaper to buy then 256s
thell buy and use them
ps3 will still only use the 256 standard but in the future a trade up program or free upgrade or somethign could enable a firmware update to unlock the extra ram
but xdr is also uses elsewhere by other companys in cell systems
because not everyone canbe bought and forced to make additional sequals for a a game
crytec will lisence there engine but have no interest other then persuing there own ips
infinity ward will be starting pre production on cod6
it seems them and the other group alternate games whichis good for a franchise
gearbox are an ok developer
m$ would be better off spending 3-5 years on the background tech for 720 and make h4 a real killer game but t...
gearbox have so far denounced the rumor
everything else is speculation however going by m$ history a new console late 09 is possible
as to more ram
yes it would have been nice if they had 1gb shared (360)and 512 per
(ps3)
but its not gonan happen
pcs need more ram because of background processes and the way they work
ps2 had like 32 meg ram xbox had 64
jumping from 32/64 to 512 is a big jump and enough...
not what ihope for in my wedding but cute and um diturbing
i wish noone from here would dlit regardless of temtations
all we hurt is our chance at future games
backweards compatability and cpu die is diferent
might i suggest that this entire issue be taken to the forums for civilized disscusion as both 360 and ps3 sides have valid merits to discuss
after all isnt that what n4g gamerzone is about sensible non biased discussion
.anyhow my comment.
I fully agree that microsofts 3rd console be it x3 or 720 or whatever will be techinaclly outstanding the 360s core design is no slouch
3 cores running 2 threads at 3.2.... ill take that anyday..
I ...
the guy left there employ.
and its highly unlikly mgs5 is anythign more then a few potential notes on the back of some paper
one line and your all asuming a release is immininet this isnt confirmed it isnt even roumoured
thats like saying ace 7 is confirmed because 'future games may be multi platform' by a employee..
if mgs5 comes out good im ahppy for oyu but its far far too soon to be posting any 'news'on it
they already said its not copyright in terms of legal things so no lawsuits
a copyrighted item in game means the copyright holder can decide how to distribute it
about 30%
nice to know theres a spare 75gflops lying around
and for those who dont know
have a google for cell acelerator board
its a pcie card with a cell on board IT IS NOT A GRAPHICS CARD
but it does have 1gb xdr and 4gb ddr2 on board its also not as fast closck speed wise as a ps3
it runs in at about 180gflops
ibm sony toshiba built cell from the ground up they didnt just take a duelcore and say toss in ...
i dont theink the engineers wanted it released in its current state
no sensible technician would rush out faulty product given a chance i feel there budget was cut and there deadline pulled forward
i bet there as unhappy as the consumers
in additio nthos the points made above they neglected certain key parts of development like stress testing
most devices are run as long and as hard as they can be until the blow
microsoft knew there system was flawed and neglected to mention it
90 days was the original warenty they knew systems would fail but they didnt think they would go before this time
after so many they extended it to a year then 3 for rrod
if they had released at the ...
ok folks
definition of a cpu duel core.
Dual-core refers to a CPU that includes two complete execution cores per physical processor. It has combined two processors and their caches and cache controllers onto a single integrated circuit (silicon chip). Dual-core processors are well-suited for multitasking environments because there are two complete execution cores instead of one, each with an independent interface to the frontside bus. Since each core has its own cache, the ...
