The Orange box and Half Life 2 is still great to this day and should be a game collection any console owner would like. My only fear is that EA is handling the PS3 port, and we usually know how that turns out...

Sorry Mighty Douche and others but you`re wrong. The PS3 version is from EA (with some "assistance" from Valve they called it).

Well, it`s kind of better for 360 owners if it`s in a similar state as the PS3 version (and i think it is, because they`re most likely developing on all platforms simultaneously due to financial reasons). Because that means, they could have more time to add something extra for the 360 fans, as i think they might and has happened with ports before.

If Sony payed for a timed exclusive though (which i`m sure they did), they`ll get one. If anything it means that 360 owners probably...

- Mario ? I hope not.

- World of Warcraft is in the making, but giving it to von Trier would not be a clever idea. I think the should`ve made a CGI instead of a live one, but too late i`m afraid :(

- MGS, should be here, even though that too is in the making. I would also have liked to see this in CGI instead of what`s coming. I know Uwe Boll isn`t making it (thank God, or Kojima rather), but i hope they have someone who knows how to make movies. I fear it may turn out p...

Such early guesses will probably be far off, since it`s hard to predict what will be hot on the technology front in 2011, now. This would make more sense to discuss before "E3" in 2011, or whenever the specs are released. But speculating is always fun i guess ;)

I agree with Meus Renaissance though. Games is what will settle the next war, and this one for that matter ;)

Hehe funny and true. That equals a bubble your way ;)

I agree, it was the weakest of the three. But then again Bruce Campbell (the french waiter) had the best role he has had in either one of them and the best role in the entire movie i think, so i kind of liked it anyway. Bruce is the King ;)

Since Sony own Columbia Pictures (think it was called Tristar before), which is the company behind Spiderman. Sony also makes Blu-Ray of course.

But having a famous director praising your format can never be a bad thing huh ;)

The turret stuff was cool and the dinosaurs seemed wicked. Not bad at all.

With EA`s track record, i think it should have benefited from more development time (even though it got a bit more than the other versions, a 2008 release would be better), even though that`s not usually EA`s style.

I think it`s too bad if this is another crappy port, because HL2 and the other stuff the Orange Box offers is still quality, despite it`s age. It`s also great value. If it`s not properly done, it will definitely be killed by games like CoD4, UT3 and perhaps Haze. Th...

I liked the third video best, since it showed some gameplay with the stuff they uploaded, and not just falling things, as fun as that was ;)

Not sure if would be a wii killer, but the should try and make something out of it, seemed like fun.

...is that Sony has payed Epic for a timed exclusive on PS3, and therefore Epic won`t talk about so much about it now. It`s about keeping the PS3 sales up as Dlacy13g said above me.

That they disagree with Microsoft on the whole mod thing is true, and could be one of the reasons it`s "delayed" for the 360, i see the first reason more important. And with Gears running on 360 last year, it`s got nothing to do with the UT3 engine not being capable on running on the platf...

Hope Sony market the hell out of it, so it can get the word out, and the sales it deserves.

I think i heard about a substantial amount put aside for Uncharted commercials, in the UK at least, but they really should show it off with a great commercial instead of that "this is living" crap we have here in Europe (sorry for the rant but i just like the recent US commercial much better, because it shows of the games more, but they could have one specifically for Uncharted...

Yeah Uncharted seems the more obvious choice if they want to "redeem" themselves, but i find it strange that a PS3 game would have a better fps game than a 360 game, with the current situation of multiplatform games. Maybe that`s why Gamespot gives it to a multiplatform game now, so the can show PS3 some love for once (since they always point out that with the PS3 versions of games is lacking) ;)

Not trying to start a conspiracy story here though hehe, just meant it a...

Agree with that hehe. Very strange.

Agree with Tommie too, wonder which one is right though.Perhaps Gamespot is trying to make up for the Ratchet reviews, but i would advise everyone to at least try it for yourselves with such mixed reviews and opinions about the fps, so that we can get a more general idea of how it is.

I would take framerate over lighting anyday though, since it`s more important to the gameplay.

Since it was only one retailer, in one country, which reported the incident, with no confirmation from other retailers or proof for that matter. The original story on N4G, made it sound like all the 40gig models had a 40% failure rate, and not just one country (which is also wrong since it came from only one retailer, and was proven false).

It`s fine that people submit rumors here, but they should at least specify that it concerned one country in the headline, if not one retail...

Yeah me too, maybe the best football game could sell better for once, even though i think Pro Evo needs to improve more than they have this last few years.

The license shouldn`t be able to have exclusively anyway. It would mean that Pro Evo would have to have better commentary and presentation too now, how they havn`t managed to improve that over the years, is a mystery to me.

Hehe funny use of my own quote above there, nice one.

Yeah, you`re right about that. I guess i did a horrible job of specifying it though ;)

6708d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Yeah, i was talking about fanboys, not reviewers. Although since reviews on average is in a way about reviewers too, i guess i was referring to them indirectly ;)

But i was talking about fanboy behavior mainly here yeah ;)

6708d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Yeah, and it seems like a great game too, so i`m thinking of maybe picking up a PS3 for it too. I guess you need to play it for yourself in order to see how good the animations actually is, so maybe i`ll have to do just that.

I trust Deep`s recommendations though, so i`m sure both he and you are right about the games quality ;)

6708d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Correct me if i`m wrong, but i think we agree completely here.

I was only trying to use fanboy logic against themselves, so they could see how stupid it seems. Although i`m sure they won`t change it, it still needs to be pointed out, i think.

Because what some of them is saying, is that a game has to have above 90% to be an AAA, like Icewake above me, but since Ratchet "only" has 89,5 it is not an AAA. All i was doing was pointing out that i disagreed w...
