Wow. There may be but it sure as bleep isn't a market of which I'm a member. I wouldn't buy a 400 dollar xbox for the same reasons I wouldn't buy a 250 dollar Wii.
i'll be the first to say I was wrong about HHG calling it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only person that said this would happen was him. I clowned him for it like all of us did.
I don't know how effective a Modern Warfare 2 bundle would be. Do you really think there are that many people that want Modern Warfare 2 but don't own either of the next-gen (or current-gen depending on what you call it) consoles? I don't.
but PC gaming has a pretty strong base. Seeing L4D on a PC and then on 360 is like night and day. That engine isn't that outdated afterall. And Crysis is so pretty it actually made me stop to admire textures and detail wondering how long until something pretty is on console (then again Killzone 2 is still gorgeous imo).
not sure they even have their PS3 on the proper settings. I'll wait until I see the game running in front of me.
What am I saying. I'm not buying this game anyway. GT5 for me.
This is a game for a handheld system; not a console. And if you, in your 360 is almighty world, could play a Forza game on a handheld you probably would regardless of the score from one site.
I asked the Mart, Power of Green, and all the other 360 homers so I guess I'll ask you: what's with all the hate for Sony? What did it? I'm willing to bet you owned a PS2. What happened that made you a fanboy?
Did not expect that. Chris Roper knows his stuff when it comes to GT so I guess I can't say the reviewer was biased. If that's the score that's the score. I guess I'll see what other people say.
or is this a level from the single player campaign?
and while I know I'm going to love Uncharted 2, to say it's going to do anything to Modern Warfare 2 is just crazy. I just hope Uncharted sells a million or more in the first week. Modern Warfare 2 will probably sell that on the first day alone. And I'm talking just one console.
At least Uncharted is getting the love from the gaming media (wait for Eurogamer's review). Sony has to market it big. Burger King toys, South Park spots, Family Guy ads, whatever. Make it like MS made t...
But it's only one ripoff amongst many. MS customers have shown they'll buy 360 products regardless of whether its a rip off or not so why fault MS for overcharging and taking their money? I don't. But if the console gaming industry as a whole followed the MS practice of overcharge for everything, I think I'd become a PC gamer.
first hits for free but the next one will cost you type of approach.
59.99 at release? Please tell me if it was. I'm pretty sure it released at 39.99 if that.
I'm not saying you can't release a fraction of a game. It's when you release a fraction of a game, and on an engine that was never exactly cutting edge, it's a rip to charge full price for that game.
Example: I recently purchased FFVII on PSN. Paid 14.99 for it. I can't remember how much that game cost when it came out on PSOne, but I can tell you it was at least 4x as much as w...
They get a game that's originally set to be DLC, and they say "no no, let's charge full price for it. It does, after all, have the name Halo on it."
And the gamers, of whom I am one, don't in any way feel slighted as evidenced by the preorders. That 360 base will truly buy anything.
I know Sony wants that market but I'm almost scared of what may happen if they get it. Will some Uncharted 2 ODST type of game be released and, if so, will they charge full pric...
but I will have this one on day one. Sorry to gush but when I think about how much entertainment and functionality I've gotten out of my PS3, and what's to come, and the exclusives....wow...well...I can only say this to Sony:
and I love it. They're going to get slammed by certain sites/podcasts, but this game has done nothing but impress everyone at every show, convention, or whatever.
Day one. I hope it does big for Naughty Dog.
and this is just my opinion, but I think the PS3 has the better library and that's going off of what's out now, what's soon to hit, and what's coming next year.
But that's me. If you feel that Halo 3, Halo ODST, Mass Effect, Forza, Alan Wake, and Splinter Cell make the 360 better, and you don't mind paying a fee to game online cuz of the features, then more power to you.
Articles like this are why i don't want to hear any sites bish about the fanboy climate. All they do is cater to it! Which system has this or is PSN better than Live or will PS3 dominate this gen. Who are these articles written for? I comment on them but I don't read them. It doesn't matter. It's all subjective. All that matters are the games. Try telling a Halo fan that MS isn't dropping anything. Same with a Forza fan. One guy told me the only game he's buying this year is Modern Warfare 2....
I can't try to care about Yakuza 4 when I'll never get 3. I can only hope Sony or maybe Capcom take the risk in publishing the game over here.
kudos to Sony and all the new PS3 owners.
just talk about whatever pops in your head. Think it would be cool for Sony to have a video browser app? Then say it's rumored to happen. Want a Modern Warfare 2 pack? Then say it's a rumor that might happen. Think Heavy Rain looks better than Crysis and will destroy PC gaming? You get the idea.
the game, and I guess the usual 3 months of Live for free.
Not a great deal but certainly a good one imo. You can't say "it's a great deal because to buy all those seperately would cost you blank" when MS sells their 360 drives for an arm and a leg. But still, if you're looking for a 360 and have the dough, this is the way to go.
Only question is why does the 360 need that Modern Warfare 2 logo on it? Wouldn't that get old after awhile? The Halo design wa...
