You know, BioShock lasted a good 20 hour on the first run.

I'm not getting my money worth unless it's over 12-15 hour, depending on the quality (if it has only single-player campaign.)

There are people who do not own a PS3 but will buy one if PS3 has a lot of great games. They will buy a PS3 only if they keep reading reviews of a lot, a lot of great PS3 exclusives that score 9s and 10s all the way.

They don't have a PS3 to "try the demo and decide for themselves" if a game is worth it. They read the rewiews, and if there's a tsunami of reviews that say the games are perfect (like BioShock and Gears of War), then they will go buy the console to pla...

Gameplay is the most important thing in a game. Graphic and sound are secondary. That has already been established.

Head over to MetaCritic and look at the aggregate score. (or GameRanking, but MetaCritic includes more reviews than GameRanking - every review that GameRanking includes in its average is also in MetaCritic.)

When you look at one or few review scores, then they are just individual opinions. However, if you look at MANY, MANY of different reviews and average out their scores, then they become a CONSENSUS.

that's what I've been reading.

Unfortunately for Heavenly Sword, gameplay is more important than graphic, sound, and flashing cutscenes.

HD-DVD can't win this war unless Warner joins HD-DVD.

If Warner joins Blu-ray, that'll be the end of the format war: HD-DVD will lose.

This war will drag on for another 18 months -- but that's really hurting PS3 the most. The sooner Sony can completely kill off HD-DVD, the better chance PS3 has at winning the console war as well. In fact, Sony really needed to win the HD format war by this year's end, and now that's not happening.

Levine responds quite clearly, "We got an exclusive deal with Microsoft."

What more do you want?

Patcher is also the guy who had predicted that PS3 will ultimately win the console war in the end. (Of course, back then no one knew who the heck he was.)

because the one he's been using has been wrong on everything so far.

Why Edge UK gave BioShock 8/10.

Levine responds quite clearly, "I promise you, there is no secret plan about the PS3 that we're keeping from people. There's no PS3 development going on that we're hiding. There's lots of stuff that gets into game code, plans change over time and WE GOT AN EXCLUSIVE DEAL WITH MICROSOFT ... that's not a Rosetta Stone discovery."

Putting aside the fact that Blu-ray requires expensive, specialized pressing plants, and the authoring requires more technical expertise, I always thought it was odd for studios to choose a format that pays one of their direct competitors.

and decide to go all out.

When Rob Smith moved from OXM to PSM, he only got transferred from one department to another department in the same company. OXM and PSM even have the same address.

The company that owns both magazine is called Future US. It's one of the few profitable magazine publishers in the US. It also owns PC gamer, Maximum PC, and Mac|Life. Its online divisions are GamesRadar and Next Generation.

Warhawk 6.5
and
Lair 5.0

EGM gave Lair 6.0

Do you know all those jihadists who would issue a death warrant on authors who wrote about Islam in ways the jihadists do not approve of? Well, Sony fanboys are kinda like that, that's why they should be called Sony terrorists from henceforth.

give it up.

So are you Sony terrorists out there going to hunt down, stalk and give death threats to the two staff reviewers who gave the low scores to Lair and Warhawk?

I saw only one movie three times in the theater and it's Stardust. After I had seen it for the third time, I still wanted to see it but I decided that I would just have to wait for the home video to come out because I did not want to wait any more money and time going to a theater.

I'm still waiting for Blu-ray or HD-DVD to win the HD war so I'll just get the format that completely kill off the other, but Stardust is one movie that I'll really want to get in HD because I lov...
