The Nindendo Playstation 361 is way more advanced. When the 362 comes out I'll buy one of those.
But seriously WTF is Bubbles talking about? Are they trying to say that the prefer PC gaming?
Crysis 2 will look amazing on high end PC's but I'm not sure how good the console versions will look.
But I don't have an Xbox :(
But if you remember towards the end of Uncharted 1 (CAUTION SPOILERS) in the Nazi bunker there were chairs and carts all over the place, that moved pretty terribly when touched. This inconsistency in physics is not an issue in Uncharted 2.
But I really do miss the rock walls.
Especially here in Australia where games reatil from $90 to $110 AUD. This is the USD equivalent of $83 to $101, a lot more than what people pay in the US.
"The first time you put U:DF or U2:AT into your system there’s about a 5 min loading screen."
Both of those games had an initial loading screen of less than one minute the first time I played. Every other time it was about 20 seconds. Definitely no where near 5 minutes.
1 Megabyte takes me about 3 seconds. So I'll have it in 2 hours. I want it now!
They can tell you a generally good game from a bad one, but I don't rely on them to rank games in order. For example, GTA IV was not a bad game and definitely deserves to be in the green, but having the highest rating of all time is certainly not deserved. I'm not saying game reviews are pointless, but scores can be sometimes. I usually just check to see generally good or generally bad reviews, and only read the ones fom big name sites.
"Uncharted 2 can't hold a candle to Brutal Legend or Batman: Arkham Asylum."
Who else facepalmed after reading this?
A PS3 is $500 (australian dollars)
And I paid a bit over a grand for:
-ASUS P5N-MX motherboard
-4GB RAM
-1GB ATI Radeon HD 4650
-2.80 GHz E7400 Dual Core
-650W coolermaster power supply
-Coolermaster Case
-DVD Drive
-500GB HDD
@ below: well why doesn't mine? is something wrong with it?
Was I ripped off? And what do I need to buy for my PC to play quality games?
Edit: here's my system info page if it help any...
I'm talking about my personal experience.
The facts are, the total cost of components for my PC were greater than the cost of my playstation3 and the graphics it can produce are not as good.
That's what happened. I know it happened. I am not misinformed.
Edit: disagree with me all you want but it's a true story. All the disagrees in the world won't change that.
I noticed a huge performance leap. But this might be due to the change from 32-bit to 64-bit also. I'm not sure about that kind of thing.

A REAL computer user will NOT use a Mac. They are overpriced and are about as useful as a toaster when it comes to computing. All the programs and games that you want to use won't work on it, and so is useless.
@ps3ftwin
Unless you are talking the prices of the games themselves, then PC gaming is much more expensive. My PC cost over double what my PS3 cost, and my PS3 outperforms it. A good PC is superior yes, but cheaper no.
there's no boobs in it. lol jokes
My one word to describe it is Epic.
WOW, you haven't played Uncharted. In just 2 games it has become my favourite franchise of all time. Until a week ago, Drake's Fortune was my favourite game, Among Thieves has now taken its place.
Seriously do yourself a favor and go buy them, you'll be playing them for a long time.
I think it's good when a gme comes out that is unrivaled by anything else. I had the feeling with Uncharted 2, Uncharted 1, Killzone 2, Half life 2 and several other games. But then again, I'm impressed easily.
War. War has changed.
Fallout 3 and MGS4 start with the exact opposite lines.
We get shafted for mature games here due to Michael Atkinson not making an 18+ rating for games.
"cover mechanic that [feels] like a slightly clumsy version of that in Gears of War."
It's an unclumsy version of Gears. Gears of War has an annoying locked camera angle that makes moving about very clumsy. The unlocked camera angle also makes melee fighting a LOT better in Uncharted rather than Gears once again clumsy feeling system. Although the chainsaw on the lancer is awesome, not other gun had fun melee.
There were a lot in "The God Delusion" but I think you just destroyed more than Dawkins ever did.
