Microsoft's trying to expand past software?

I read something on IGN that indicated a price of 5-10 dollars for gthd, although it wasn't confirmed.

Isn't 60 Euro more than $60? The Europeans do get screwed.

I hope they hire college seniors to test the games and give them free systems though:)

and a cop to guard those cops and a mall security officer to guard that cop and a violent midget to guard that security officer.

The 65 nm chips keep the same logic design and clock speed so performance should be unaffected. This update should just lower electrical usage and lower heat. All consoles go through hardware revisions to make the successive production runs more stable. MS can't release an add on to make your chips different, but if your 360 does fail then they might replace or repair it like Sony had to do with its early ps2 production runs.

Would the title,
"Gears gameplay video fails to impress Joystiq staff,"
been more acceptable?

With posts like this, c4, I can predict you will continue to lose bubbles.

Personally I think Resistance does change it up 'abit[sic]' with the weapons. Just like Ratchet wasn't the same old platformer, I think Resistance won't be the 'smae[sic]' old FPS. But, in either case, we'll know in less than two months.

At least your icon is fitting. Sammy is one of the biggest pimps ever IMO.

From these three screenshots we know:
Beautiful Scenery: Check
Whores: Check
Addresses the missing features of Fable: Maybe.

At least Lionhead isn't overhyping this like they did with the original. Taking a low key approach this time and letting the gameplay hype the game would be a good idea this time around.

Just so people don't go flaming you on one point and ignore all the sound predictions you made, there have been only about 120 million ps2's sold. You're statement is correct if you expand it to being inclusive of psone units, because then the sales would be over 200 million.

All things considered this is a minor point because 120 million is still more than any other console has sold making the rest of your points still valid.

I'm pretty sure Capcom cares. And I'm pretty sure Microsoft cares a lot more.

You should read the discussion that started in the article about the halo wars cgi presentation. Turns out both companies use cgi, as its a useful tool to give a perspective on the art design and to serve as a benchmark on how successful the game was in concept.

but that video left me with a weird feeling. It's like I watched someone get molested repeatedly on video. Next time either focus on whats on screen or do a better job filming a demonstration of the ps3's hardware features so it doesn't look so creepy. I'm gonna go take a shower now.

No, that secret title was confirmed to be The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, unfortunately.

"Crackdown: Grand Theft Auto meets Hulk: Ultimate Destruction in a mess of a game with rough graphics, sloppy controls and an awful camera system. Needs serious work to be a worthy contender."

If thats an accurate assessment, then its a great thing that the developers are taking the time they need to make it a good game with this delay.

But it says that Bioshock is a 360 console exclusive when it releases this spring. This could be like an Oblivion type exclusivity. We could see ps3 Bioshock in summer '07 according to this wording. Maybe its like with the ps3 versions of fifa and pes and Irrational isn't as far along with the ps3 version as they are with the 360 and pc versions, causing a delayed ps3 release.

Of course my speculation could be entirely wrong. I'll be getting it in the spring for my pc anywa...

The problem with their rating system is that the z-rating is now like an ao ESRB rating, and its illegal to sell to minors. If Dead Rising was rated ao in other territories, major retailers wouldn't stock it. Japan really needs to fix its censorship laws.

That 256 Gigs/sec eDRAM can't be included as general purpose memory!

"The XBOX GPU has 10MB of embedded DRAM (eDRAM) which the GPU can access for accelerated blending and anti-aliasing. Because the module is on the same package as the GPU (but not ‘on’ the GPU), it can be clocked very high -- at around 2GHz. On a 128-bit bus, this provides 32GB/s of bandwidth between the GPU and the eDRAM. Adding this figure to the "system memory bandwidth" would be ridiculous since ...

The character models could be better too. But hey, they have plenty of time to add polish, and it already looks great so far.
