You heard of a game called "Warhawk"? Guess what. your PS3 is a server. same with Tekken 5 and a slew of other games... Whats your point? Its free and hasn't been taken down. So until it is. This is not a valid point. XBL could do the same.
@ below
Agree to disagree. I still feel they should offer something. There are tons of PC games that you can play online free. Even games that are on 360 and PC. Do you think PC gamers are gonna pay to play Gears on...
You will not be able to ever judge that. They will be different just like the Wii will be different. I mean.... In home you invite your friend from half way around the world to come in and watch a movie with you in you custom built house with pics of your family on the table and music from you PS3 streaming in the house... Will it be even then? When you can DL movies? When PSN has home for free and XBL is charging wqithout anything like that? So far I enjoy PSN games like Super Stardust, Ever...
Lynx.
Weren't you just knocking the "Simplest concepts" in an article like 3 minutes ago about the Wii Zapper....
Should Xbox live be free? Of course. Or at least give gamers something on it free.
Sorry dude. I disagree. In the end you are right that they will cut corners but not because they have to but because they are cheap. MS has a ton of money and can afford to do it. They chose to be cheap though. Gamers should not have to pay the price for a service thats free on PS3 and Wii. If they wanna charge they should at least offer like 2 free movies a month rental... Or something to make it better. They can afford to do this but dont... why?... Cause they are cheap. Thats all it comes ...
Still debating here about EOJ... I think it will be a big investment in the long run but fun... But Ratchet OMFG cant wait.
@ aiphanes.
The wii store is good. SM64, Mario Kart 64, Wave race, Bonks,and a ton of other stuff.
Zelda Twilight princess is an awesome game. Paper Mario isn't bad either. Metal slug Anthology also kicks ass.... So I don't know what your talking about. It has games. Maybe not a ton but Wii sports and Metroid are not the only thing it offers. It has a browser. Built in WiFi and some good features like weather and news... So basically... It may not be the best but...
I am not a GT fan. Never have been but anyone who knocks this graphics wise is just stupid.
I really hate these wars anymore... The truth is. I own all the systems. I love games on all the systems. I love features on all the systems. You can't beat any of the exclusives for any of the systems. Bioshock and Gears are amazing. HS and Warhawk are amazing. Zelda and Wii sports are amazing. I think EA was right. We should all just have one system. Make game developers try to win us. We should have 1 console that can play BR, HDDVD, DVD, 1080p 60FPS and have a ton of features. Granted why...
This is stupid. It should not be the market they are aiming for. Thats the Wii Market. MS should stick to hardcore. Its what they do best.
Sessler is an idiot. Does he ever say anything that we don't already know...
Maybe he should discuss how Gaming politics works or how development and publishing works and educate us... If he's so good maybe he should talk about stuff that isn't totally obvious to everyone...
What a douche. And for gods sakes maybe they can get a decent streaming media program... Damn cheap G4...
Capcom lost the rights for Marvel.
True but also true street fighter fans. i.e. me. I believe would buy the console for the game. It would be a system seller for sure.
Honestly they will probably wait til after Christmas to see how well PS3 sales do. Then make an announcement. So far they said in developement for PS3 but haven't ruled anything out. It will probably be multi plat though.
Agreed. Powerful system.
HAHAHA sjappie that was funny.
I almost cried tears of joy... I don't think they could have made a bigger announcement...
I liked RE:Code Veronica too. Prolly just me but SF4 is imo one of the biggest announcements ever. I am completely psyched. If it goes Multiplat I will be buying it for both. So I can play against my friends on both systems. This would be the only game I would be willing to do that for.
Edit: I'm just curious is there a controller for the 360 that has a Dpad similar to Nintendo or PS3. When I play Castlevania SOTN or other old games on the 360 the Dpad it comes with is kinda me...
Yeah I actually played in a Baseball card shop. The 3D version was ok. Still though with a huge saturation of 3D fighters out and coming this will bring in a great new game. I enjoyed it but nowhere near as much as the 2D ones. Street fighter was always about the balance. It is the leading example to date of one of the best balanced fighters ever and is recognized as such. Soul Calibur a close second imo.A 2D is fighter is just what is needed. I love them all. Guilty gear. MvsC 2. Darkstalker...
This game really makes me want a PSP... I just hate handhelds.... I love GOW though....
