Those 35-45 are old enough to have experienced the beginnings of video games and grew up with them. It was pretty standard when I grew up to hit the arcade at lunch and after school on many occasions.
Sounds like some trailer trash just want some money...
Doesn't matter what it is, they will probably muck up the remake.
No way in hell is Valhalla anywhere near as good as Coagulation.
Bungie: just spruce up Halo1 and Halo2 maps with more detail but leave them be!!!
The video demonstrates the user created modification of the maps using forge. In reality, how is your typical user supposed to get and play these mods? Also, 2 out of the 3 maps cannot stand on their own merits--ie. they are crap. Very disappointing Bungie charged $10 previously and couldn't even put out 3 solid maps. Give us Halo1 and Halo2 maps (keeping faithful to the original) and HALO3 fans will be pleased.
At the 2007 LP release, PS3 won't have a better shooter.
Even with Halo, there are still a lot of X360 players fixated with Lost Planet. It sold over 1 million copies on the X360 platform--you don't get those kinds of sales numbers for a 2nd rate game!
PS3 is the reason Blueray is now dominant. With the PS3, there would not be the commanding lead in BR movie sales that there is today. The article brings up good points when it comes to games though. There is currently no system seller for PS3 although Warhawk comes close.
Yeah, it is pretty bad at times. I can tolerate the expletives but the racist comments are just unacceptable. I recently changed my asian sound ing gamertag because I was receiving racial slurs thrown at me. I've even received negative gamer reviews for no apparent reason.
Raven completely botched Quake4 for X360. I was hoping that someone would come forward to put Q3A on XBLA. It ran well on modest PC setups and with texture compression, could be extremely compact, especially with XBLA's new size limits. Can't wait!!!
Will the crappy connectivity of ea servers continue?
Q3A was so smooth and the gameplay was so frenetic. A timeless classic. I am sure that pulling classic maps and user created maps would equal won outrageous package. However, the game is dated and no one would accept this as a new retail release--it would need to be XBLA to be viable. Question is, can they make it fit under the newly upgraded XBLA max size limits? I believe they can in this age of texture compression.
The MS wheel is only $120 at Sams club. For $20 more, there is no question which wheel to get.
Content will do the most to drive HD DVD unit sales. Universal has a HUGE archive of blockbusters. They need to pick out some of the best ones, give them proper extras, and release them pronto!!!
HALO2 is THE most played online game. I don't care if the MS hype machine says it is Gears. It takes more time to find a Gears game but HALO2 matches up opponents very fast just about any time of the day, any day of the week. Amongst my small group of X360 friends, we all play Halo2 the most, with Burnout coming a distant 2nd and Gears an even further 3rd. HALO3 is going to be HUGE and will force many original XBOX owners who have waited to get an X360 go ahead with the purchase.
we grew up in the golden age of video games...of course we still play!
At 400pts, this is the best value on XBLA. Unlike some games where you hit a brick wall in difficulty, this game ramps up with learned skill. Just when you think you can't get any higher, you break your personal best. Superb!
How come the colors are so much better? The shots just look brighter and more colorful--more detailed I can understand. Halo2 on my x360 just looks kind of washed out.
About one of every 5 xbox 360 owners I know have had their xbox360's die (needing replacement) or seems like its about (freezing up, red rings). I think 3-4% is pure BS.
My friends and I have trouble joining private matches all the time. We keep having to start a new game. Very common problem... EA does nothing.
Of course the survey of Gays is going to feel they are negatively treated. Gays feel like they are negatively treated/perceived, period. Go to a NAACP convention and ask if they feel they are negatively treated online too.
... "That's so gay" does not mean "That's so homosexual." Gay=lame. It's not my fault homosexuals have taken the word "gay" as exclusively their own.
Dammit Microsoft--don't you know people are balking at the $50 for Xlive Gold!?!? Just drop it already--we should not have to pay to play multiplayer. Especially when almost all games are host-based and not server-based. All your other functionality is free on XLive Silver. You will KILL if XLIVE were free...
