Both Ms and Sony want to launch at fall so that they can recoup developement cost as quickly as possible. With limited time available its better to sort out the hardware problems now as they implement software features later through firmware updates.
I don't like on the rail games.
Ok I'll let myself out.
'Nintendo consoles are the only consoles that dont break down'
You do release that every electronic device has a failure rate. No matter how good quality control is.
Thanks for info. Loved the 1st two versions. Hopefully for this upcoming version they keep the charm of the old but improve the server.
Can travel forward in time by walking backwards.
The reality is the majority of consumers dont listen to pr surounding a console. For most consumers the price, one of the greatest factors when comes to buying hardware.
Obviously this studio is american but was the first two versions of online for subsistance and Mgs 4 made in another american studio or were they made Roppongi Hills in Roppongi, Tokyo?
Why does it matter if it get GOTY. It just a label it doesn't add or take from an already fantastic game.
@ BattleReach
Yeah the frame rate going to drop big rime whenever there is aqua-scene featuring moving fish.
The dogs have super advanced AI.

Even do i agree that Xbox one has a stronger 2013 lineup you shouldnt declare opinion as a fact. Secondly that doesn't have anything to with the article above.
ON topic I think that Microsoft shouldnt force Kinect on the consumer as it will discourage a lot of people from getting an Xbox one.
Sadly if they continue down this path I fear that they are going to find out the hard way who there most important stakeholders are, and it ain'...
There is no reason why Sony would be against Microsoft using the Blu ray format. Its a mutalistic relationship for each party involved. Microsoft benefit from a better format for game developement. Sony and other members of Blu-ray Disc Association benefit from the royalaties they get from each disc sold.
Probably each company payed for research and development, could be wrong I say each are immune from paying each other.
They actually one of the dominate players for HD DVD format. I dont like using wiki as a source but you go anyway.
'During the high definition optical disc format war, Blu-ray Disc competed with the HD DVD format. Toshiba, the main company that supported HD DVD, conceded in February 2008,[6] releasing its own Blu-ray Disc player in late 2009'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
There are are nine electronic companies that own blu ray: Sony, Matsushita, Pioneer, Philips, Thomson, LG Electronics, Hitachi, Sharp, and Samsung.
So any company that uses blu-ray has to pay royalties to the companies listed above.
Good review. What size is the game?
Kind of like the movie 'Jack'
Getting tired of this misogyny sh*t.
Common sense will tell you tell you that crime isn't paving the way for human rights let alone equal gender rights. Human trafficking, prostitution and strip clubs have been part of crime world long before the dawn of Millennium. GTAV isn't objectifying woman its actually giving an accurate representation of crime world.
Organised crime by its very nature its a patriarchal (male dominated) social system. For that...
GOTY. Who cares its just a label it doesn't add or take away from a already brillant game. Why should a small comittee dictate its self worth.
I will be watching VGA not for the awards but to see what next gen game Naughty Dog are bringing to the table.
It true that Economies of scale equates to lower price production, there still is no guarantee that prices will drop anytime soon. If that were the case MW2 would have been cheaper at launch than COD 4 due to increase demand.
