I think I just threw up in my mouth a little
I agree, Vista users should get a free upgrade as an apology. I remember reading a detailed plan that someone made a while back to suggest to Microsoft that Vista be upgraded bit by bit into Windows 7, kind of a rolling beta if you will. It was a pretty genius idea. May try to dig that article up again.
buh, wrong reply
Thank you, I knew I had heard this before.
This isn't new, I thought they had stated this a while back. Maybe not, but at least I never assumed it would have local. Unfortunately, most games this gen don't.
Personally, I'd gladly take a drop in visuals for local co-op. With a game like Uncharted 2, the degraded visuals would likely still look better than the PS3 launch titles. I'd gladly take a drop in visuals for KZ2 local co-op as well. I'd also be willing to sit through a hefty install if it meant split-screen for...
Yeah, that's a damn good deal. Though I'm still going to wait a while and hear what 7's like for gaming, if it's as sloppy as vista or as good as xp. I've been looking to get some more RAM, and since I only have a 32 bit XP I would need to get a 64 bit OS to unlock that 4th GB, so I've definitely got my eye on this. DX10 seemed fine to pass up, but being stuck on DX9 when there's a DX11 kicking around might be a much more notable disadvantage.
You know what'd be funny? If Sony cut the PS3 price the week after COD6 came out. *chuckles*
I really REALLY wanted to take that game seriously. Unfortunately, I hit the breaking point when [SPOILER!] lalala Dom killed his wife, and I ended up laughing. I couldn't help it, it was just SO cheesy, I could almost hear Cliffy saying "emotion! HERE!! TAKE IT!!!"
I decided to include 'lalala' after my spoiler warning because every time I see a spoiler warning I end up inadvertently reading the word after it and getting things/the movie Moon ruined for me.
I have a feeling no single cutscene will be particularly long, like, for example, the scene from MGS4 on the river where Liquid takes over the system. There are a lot of short cutscenes in Uncharted, very very very short, like a few seconds, just to give a new camera angle on something or help show something Nate's discovered, etc. The beta, for example, in co-op there were a few several-seconds cutscenes where the players moved furniture to get over barricades. Things like that, that will...
They just did some massive restructuring (without massive layoffs) that saved them some ungodly amount of money. They're definitely not going to file for bankruptcy. Maybe if SCE was its own stand-alone company, but thankfully they're not. One of the things I like about Sony is their vested interest in pushing the industry forward. Obviously making money is their #1 priority, like every company ever, but they have a lot of other priorities regarding technological advancement that come far...
Microsoft creates a console with a ~30% failure rate, but Sony should leave the hardware arena? Not to go lighting fanboy fires here, but just because Sony has "only" sold 20-23 million since 2006 doesn't mean they should bow out, especially when their product is at least 10x more reliable than their acknowledged direct competitor, MS. 10x is assuming the PS3 has a 3% failure rate, though I'm pretty sure it's less than that from what I've read at various sources.
And ...
The graphics in this game are so bad no matter what you play it for, does it even matter which looks better?
sometimes I feel like the only 360 owner who's gotten sick of the top 5 games on that list.
Yeah, I understand. I just don't agree that MGS games only have "stealth sections." Personally, I consider them stealth games with action sections, such as the bosses. They're not like Tenchu or Syphon Filter, where, as they mention in the article, the franchise has gotten less stealthy over time. MGS4 provides the option to play as an action-shooter type of game, and I feel that was to appeal to a broader audience, but the game still has all the stealth mechanics necessary to p...
Clearly this person has never played an MGS game without getting spotted. It's a delightful challenge, and the game rewards you for it.
What is with the lack of love in this world for Pixeljunk Eden? I played that game more than most $60 releases, even my girlfriend loves it and it's nearly impossible to find a game that she loves that much.
I still prefer Rez on Dreamcast, despite the standard-def. It just feels so right.
I was half expecting to see Sega for online multi on a console
Awwww, that would be so nice to all the current Wii owners! Those Nintendos, such dears.
You mean I've been saying stupid sh!t for free all these years? Time to start charging for my services!
