Holy crap...
I know what you're saying, that it's dead and all... but you have to admit you can get some sweet deals for players and movies.
Like the GameCube!! :D
MGS4 has more of a chance of coming to the Wii than the 360, at least. Mainly because Nintendo is a Japanese comapny, and Microsoft are American. Also, the first ever MGS game was on a Nintendo console, so... that counts for quite a lot.
This game looks to be way better than Halo 3 was, and i'm not even a big RTS fan. I'd probably rather have this on 360 though, at least I know i'll be able to play on full specs.
Then again, if I had a good enough PC, i'd have got it on that.
The Atari 2600.
I don't care what sold the most. I don't care which one gave us the most fun. I don't care what had the biggest lifespan. Without the 2600, you wouldn't have had the consoles you have today without it. Basically, the amount of fun you're having now with gaming, you owe it to the 2600.
It also had a lifespan of 14 years and 2 months, nearly three times the typical lifespan of other consoles :)
I'm not too sure about this. Only time will tell...
Yeah, it would be the perfect viral marketing plan!
Like how Microsoft used to hire Zhuk to spread the word (hence his talking about the 360 as if it were royalty), until he stopped posting on N4G. Ah, those were good times...
Who here thinks that Surfer Girl has something to do with viral marketing? Seriously, think about it. She posts 'rumours' that hype up the games she mentions; do you think that it's really that unlikely that a company might pay for her services in order to hype up a game they'll be releasing soon?
Just a speculation.
Actually, that wasn't funny at all.
I'd also like to add that with live, you don't get what you pay for. £40/$50 a year? No, thank you.
PSN, on the other hand, is free, and the only things that set it back is:
No in-game messaging
Wee bit less content
So, you're getting way more than you pay for, because you're paying nothing!
Also, you said PSN is "broken". This is more the case with Live. PSN has virtually no lag, due to the ...

Don't know if i'll be getting it, I own every game, beside MGS2 and those crappy Ac!d games on the PSP.
Still, that's one sweet deal. Ifa nyone her's never played a Metal Gear game before... buy it!
Looks cool, but by putting so many multiplatform games in there, they made the 360's line-up look crap.
They should have listed more 360 exclusives, even if they're not anticipating them as much as the multiplats. The title does read "IGN XBOX 360's Most Anticipated Games of 2008". No Splinter Cell? Alan Wake? Whatever...
At least she apologised, unlike countless other of Fox's 'experts'. However, in the eyes of gamers, it may be too little, too late.
Come to think of it, though, this means she has more of a spine than Fox, which is just pathetic. When I see Fox do a FAIR discussion of Mass Effect, all will be forgotten.
Still, she shouldn't have done it in the first place.
So they came up with 15 reasons why EA are pure evil, rather than 50 reasons Microsoft are pure evil? Destructoid, out of all the gaming sites on the net, you suck the most balls.
EA aren't pure evil, have you all forgot about the defense they put up against Fox News regarding Mass Effect which, if it gets through to Fox Network's thick skull, could benefit gamers as a whole, as we would no longer have to face these stupid one-sided reports that reflect negatively on us gamers....
You guys, you can't blame religion. Einstein believed in God, and he was one of humanity's brightest minds.
It's down to the person, not their faith. By saying that religion is the cause of this horrific act is exactly the same as when Jack Thompson and Co. blame videogames for violence, crime, etc.
Do you want to be as narrow-minded as Jack Thompson? No? Then don't put this down to religion, put this down to the way this man practices his faith.
This is as good as... pooooooop
This is mega-stupid.
Why are people saying other people are 'worried'? Why the hell would you be worried? Unless, of course, you have no life, in which case you wouldn't say something like that in the first place...
Anyway, it looks to be a great game. I hope it lives up to the standard's the first game set, or i'll be sorely disappointed. Needless to say, even if it doesn't turn out to be crap, poeple are still going to rush out to buy this in droves (*cough* Halo 3 *cough*).
The thing is, about 90% of the comments here are most probably from people who only own one console, and will only be getting it for one anyway, no matter which one's better.
So, unless you own both consoles, and are trying to decide which version to get... STFU, and go play some damn games.
Looks pretty cool, should be well worth the buy.
