Did you forget you are on n4g
Reminds me of rumours of Sony building death switches/clocks in their electronics (laptops and television). Not saying it is or was true
Natal will have 14+ games available at launch, it 's still a long way before natal will launch if by that time it's still called natal.
No the retailers weren't confident enough to order larger amounts of the game.
Both companies showcasing new technologies.
Large amount of new franchises (Brink etc.)
But the biggest difference lies in the software R&D costs behind natal to make everything work.
To make everything works like it's supposed to; facial-,voice and movement recognition. Requires a substantial amount of investment in the software. If there will be difference between the eyetoy and natal this is the first place to look after natal has launched.
Furthermore with the capability of reading 3D movement it ads a extra layer which the eyetoy simply cannot...
But it lacks the appeal to be a big system seller, yes it will sell systems, but I am referring to the amount.
Too much blood in this game to appeal to everybody not to mention the number of countries which are going to ban this game.
Also I don't think God of war on the ps2 sold more than 3 million worldwide, considering the number of ps2 vs the numbers of ps3. I am pretty confident it won't sell 2 million on day one. But who knows we will have to wait and see.
Still remember that gran turismo 4 on the ps2 was one of the only games which could be played in 1080i.
Otherwise you will have a large piece of story missing gears 1+2. Microsft isn't that stupid to let go of one of its key franchises.
If you don't want to get banned at least don't mod or hack your console.
Maybe if they have reconsidered and have placed the processor back into natal.
Will this come as natal enabled lol
Compared to for example need for speed, other racers available and its predecessor it has way more content
I never installed a game on my xbox 360 and do see why anyone would want to install more than 18,3 GB if they still need to swap discs.
Wait until the launch when Microsoft actually start spending money on advertisements for natal. The newness of this technology is why media is focusing on natal which promises something new.
Microsoft also mentioned that they would launch natal with about 14 numbers. So yes Microsoft will show up with a line up of titles in the end.
Buying the company or forming some kind of partnership is way more likely than Microsoft adapting blue-ray in their xbox 360.
Not including HDVD or blue-ray was probably one of the smartest things Microsoft could; with the original xbox they learned that if they want to have any change against Sony they would need to cut their costs on their next console. Look how far they have gotten with that strategy.
It's a shame that because of that a growing number of games wi...
Nice wonder what the budget for this game was.
Cutting stuff never is good they could also have put in a fourth disc same number as lost odyssey.
Only reason why Microsoft would allow that is if they where afraid of being sued again by the European commission (Internet explorer/windows media player).
Probably not game of the year, but definitely still gonna be the biggest seller this year.
Count me as sold on this title.
