some consumers have bought into the stigma of xbl. It is a very good service and when I spent most of my console time on xbl I enjoyed it but anyone who's been gaming before 2002 knows xbl is nothing but a upgraded SegaNet. 39.99 a year is not gonna break anyone but is it really worth it? Some people seem to think so. Just like some people think the PS3 really does everything. There are no huge differences between xbl and psn but people have bought into the brand and blindly follow the b...
I'm all over this. and I agree with coolcole93; many cod gamers will overlook the game simply because it's not cod. which is sad and I think this game has all the potential in the world to be better than cod.
I agree I was extremely disappointed in UC2 sales. How ps3 owners talked about and coveted the game you'd think it would have sold halo or gears numbers instead it was a great game that only a portion of ps3 owners purchased. I purchased MW2 myself and have no qualms with the game but personally once the newness wears off I see myself playing more UC2 in the months to come.
I knew if one person was gonna beat me in this story it was gonna be my man panda.
Yo Panda shoot me a DM so I can add you to my steam friends list so we can bust some zombie heads on the 17th.
if I'm understanding this article and this steam group. They want valve to pour money and resources into a games that over half the ps3 userbase won't support?
and the author uses uncharted 2 to prove his point? He'd have been better off using killzone 2 imo. Uncharted 2 arguably the best mp game on a console this year. Not even 100k people online right now at 11:36pm est. PSN is not bad not by a long shot but the over all ps3 userbase does not support psn like xbox users su...
uncharted 2 8pm est last night a little over 100k gamers online worldwide on what is supposedly the best experience on psn this year? UC2 can't even put TF2 numbers and that game is going on 5 years old.
Instead of steadily complaining about valve and defending the ps3 how about we support PSN by playing these games, buying quality dlc off psn, and giving more MP games longevity.
actually I'd hate to think that ps3 gamers are that petty where they'd overlook a game because a man voiced his opinion close to 3 years ago. If anything they'd overlook L4D2 because they have so many games coming. Ps3 gamers have always been fickle when it comes to games and usually cling to exclusives save the modern warfare's and assassins creeds of the world.
You have to ask yourself this would the return outweigh the investment for valve? To hire ps3 devs, learn, utlize a...
valve wouldn't have nearly as much dislike from some of the playstation community if they didn't support the xbox brand. Most don't even realize that Valve outsources 360 development. Valve internally focuses on PC and they've done so since the dreamcast/ps2 era. I have buddies who are ps3 only gamers and they would love to play valve games but they aren't pc gamers and I'd love to play with them. However I wouldn't want anyone telling me how to spend my money and I can't tell anyone how ...
Don't need a mascot when you got Kevin Butler....
wonder how many here flaming the article actually read it? I have 4 buddies who have completely sold me on the game. I'll have it by the weekend. and I know it's my type of game. I haven't even got it yet but I've already decided to start out a temple knight and I've been checking the games wiki since Monday trying to see how I will adjust my stats, etc,.
I was trying to decided whether i wanted to get this or demon souls.
Now it looks like I have to buy em both.
turned 30 this year, and as a family man you do have less and less time to commit to video games, but I would think the same holds true to any hobby. I typically play with gamers my age with similar situations. we have to schedule times to get online for mp games and typically play together in addition to the single player gamers we play stuff like demon souls, uncharted, god of war. SP games can hold our attention better than a game such as a killzone or modern warfare since we can play s...
page is so littered with ads I didn't know if I was reading the rumor or applying for a job making 125 dollars an hour while getting ripped in 2 weeks......
i got a disagree?
Is this not good news for wii only users?
and who has a problem with the Boondocks???
thanks for that insightful information. Anyone with a Boondocks avy is okay in my book.
I guess this is good news for the casuals who have only wii's and netflix accounts.
okay some of you confuse your pleasure with sony's business. How can you want Sony to make sales and then not want those same consumers to get online to support the platform. I don't want a lot of kids on psn either but those same kids albiet aggravating will equate to more sales for sony and possibly the playstation store. This is where a party mode or hec just meeting up with your friends on psn come into play.
I mean it's kinda disheartning for me to see uncharted 2 as gr...
if you don't like the 360 or ps3 for personal reasons that's fine, but if you don't like one or the other because your mommy and daddy won't buy the other or u can't afford the other is kinda lame. I'm not comfortable with paying for xbl these days but that doesn't mean I don't like the 360. I just prefer the pc and ps3 for the time being that may change next year I don't know but I refuse to bash one system over the other without any valid reason why. I leave that to the lames.
glad to see FP still getting love, New Pork? I'm all over it.
i agree with everything your saying. Which is why I started my comment some consumers have bought into the stigma of XBL similar to the way some consumers have bought into the stigma of the new ps3 commercials it's not meant to be taken literally but it is. This is why some consumers believe xbl is substantially better than psn simply because the folks over at MS have told them so. On the surface if you create a list of the things you can do on xbl vs psn the differences would be negligib...
