If Microsoft scrapped the points system, then you will end up with a Wallet style feature like on the PSN. The fact is companies have to pay a fee every time they process your credit card transaction. They would be losing money every time you did one of these microtransactions. This is why the smallest MS point package is $5, just like you have to put a minimum of $5 in your PSN wallet. This is also the same reason many stores make require a minimum purchase amount if you are buying with a c...

Bad sign. Maybe they should be charging $4.95 a month instead of $14.95 a month. The price was a little steep when you are trying to turn console players into subscription MMO players.

I don't want to see a prequel either. The way MW2 ended should feed right into MW3. Its possible there could be a flashback mission or maybe even Ghost somehow survived. Stranger things have happened.

Acension is the only map I've played on Black Ops, and it doesn't have double tap. Pardon me for getting 1 out of 4 things wrong.

I know from the video there looks two be two new perks. One looks like it could be a rapid fire, the other had a headshot symbol. You can see what looks to be the Humangun thing in the video and I would doubt a new sniper rifle on this map.

You can't blame the FPS games for being popular and successful. Companies won't make games that will not make them enough money. If some action/adventure game or RPG doesn't sell enough copies they are not going to waste money making a sequel or try making another game in that genre. If people want more jrpgs, platformers, and strategy games they need to step up and buy the ones that are out there or just realize that they are not popular formats now.

I have various passwords for different levels of things. I probably have 6 or 7 different ones. I use a book to what screenames go to what things. But I don't write the passwords down. I do write down codes to the password that are enough remind me what the password is but there is almost no chance someone is figuring it out from that book.

If this is true, this guy is dumb for using the same password. You don't use the same password for everything. At the least don't make sensitive things like your email, bank account, or credit cards the same as less important things.

If its anything like the past two years, we should have a teaser any day now. And then a full trailer during an NBA Eastern Conference finals game.

That 13 day period was nothing like the PSN time. I was still able to use XBL for games and just had trouble completing transactions and downloading things from time to time. I would rather have that than a week of absolutely nothing. I have 2 brand new PS3 games that I bought to play online and I can't so they are still in the wrapper.

Come people, that is obviously some crazy site created to make Christians look bad. Just look through some of the categories and articles and some the the things there are beyond ridiculous. Your first clue should be by a writer named "Ice Van Winkle", you know...as in Vanilla Ice, Rob Van Winkle. If anything on that site is real or done by real Christians, they are misguided extremists who do not speak for the rest of us.

Sometimes you just have to have fun and do stupid things. Kudos to everyone who played along, it gave me a few laughs.

I agree. I would like to see some figures on how many people actually used the Other OS feature. Most bloggers/commenters forget that the majority of consumers are just regular people and not hardcore gamers.

Maybe the Anons should spend more time enjoying life as opposed to fighting a worthless battle.

Now they are delusional. I have seen support for Anonymous go from very little to almost non-existent.

What a joke this article is. Even though PSN is free, my PSN+ subscription copy of Killzone 3, DC Universe (with subscription), and Socom 4 were not, I bought these games to play online and I can't. Its ridiculous that the service is out this long. The only time I have even been without XBL more than an hour or two is because of scheduled maintenance. A free service can hide poor performance behind the excuse that they don't charge for it. You pay for what you get, and this is a clea...

The only thing that is fail is this stupid article. According to this guy any map that doesn't have an interactive element is apparently a fail. Not to mention he hasn't even played the map and all he has to go on is about 5 seconds of film.

Before they tried to sell themselves as fighting for the people to have the free exchange of information. Now they are just trying screw everyone. What a pack of losers.

The store level protests are a complete fail from the start. Why would anyone from a group call "ANONYMOUS" go to a physical store to protest. The idiots are one by one putting names and faces to a group where its people are supposed to remain unknown.

MAG had no problem with it. You have to make the weapons free and the make the download mandatory. Other games have done it as well, but the new weapons were only available on the new maps that they came on.

What his statement really means is they can't do it and charge for it so they wont do it at all.

Bulletstorm does not have a multiplayer component and the campaign can be beat in 6 hours. Comparing non-multiplayer shooters to multiplayer shooters is apples to oranges. And no, just having a hoarde mode does not count. Killzone 3 is only on one console and not everyone has both consoles. Homefront had more advertising and resembles Call of Duty so its not hard to see why its getting these sales numbers. My friends who are average games mostly playing COD had no idea what Bulletstorm, Cry...
