im from australia so ill lag whether its an EU or US server and not having a ping filter in COD4 can really suck. being matched to american game time and time again, only having 1 or 2 bars of latency and being slaughtered because of it gets old real quick
im not sure region locking is the answer but being able to browse available games and choosing the one with best latency is!
total annihilation and supreme commander > blizzards rts
i heard warren has some creative input on 3 so my hopes are high for this game!
the player cap for front lines is 50 not 32. oh and it has dedicated servers too so no crying about large p2p games please.
mass effect for example on my first play through i clocked it at 55 hours. perfect game length for an RPG imo
casuals dont want to spend $699 on a console.
not until several price drops and singstar bundles will casuals consider the ps3 a serious option.
will pick up a wii when this is released in AUS
just not the standard officerrs they have teams of dudes with machine guns and body armour. thank god britian isnt as lax as america with reguards to gun controls and sale!
open zone is that way ============>
GTFO
i refuse to buy the 40gb. this bundle will sell me a ps3 sony!
Sony dismissed its competition at the start of this gen and payed the price in terms of lost marketshare. Sony wont conquer anybody till the big name games come out, that we have been waiting for since 06. i was hoping that they would have been somewhat humbled after the whole $1000 people will get a second job just to afford our console debacle but their attitude doesnt seem to have changed.
MGS4,FF,GT5 is how sony can win back hearts and minds, but so far have yet to deliver. g...
MS has been pretty decent this gen, most releases a day or so after the US release.
and as for PAL video standards, i was under the impression that in the HD era all tvs output the same signal now?
Everyone rages about online but i reckon splitscreen with your buddy by your side is more fun. does this game have splitscreen?
this was one of the only racing game to feature the aussie racing scene and now they have ditched it. no sale codemasters
i have a falcon and my friend has xenon ( launch model). you can easily tell the difference in heat level after they have both been on for a few hours. the xenon is very very hot whilst my falcon is only warm to the touch.
as for failure rate 2/4 of my 360 owning friends have had to send theirs in. but those 2 had xenons, the other 2 of my friends are recent purchasers who bought falcons. i dont expect my falcon to die on me.
/sigh
i guess metacritic must be wrong half life series isnt one of the best games ever.
yeah i guess those noobs at valve with their AAAAAAA+ half life 1,2 and the most played multiplayer game ever Counter strike plus the most fun multilayer last year TF2 and the most original game last year in portal need to go back to drawing boards.
fanboyism of this level makes me sick. Take your crap to the gamer zone. Valve hasn't made a crap game yet
and i agree LAchance the hypocrisy on this site is amazing. every time a 360 multi plat goes PC its off to PC for...
360 exclusive dlc!
im pretty sure there is a platform that he likes to program for and it starts with p but doesnt end in s3 so you wouldnt like it
Long live PC gaming!
