Don't you mean "negative" momentum, because according to the numbers, Sony just got spanked.
But they only have themselves to blame here. There previous arogance has put them where they are today. Hopefully they can overcome this and get there act together! We need SONY!!!!
Sony got trounced...plain and simple...no way to spin it. Imagine what the numbers are gonna look like in November with GoW 2 being released, with Left 4 Dead and the New Xbox experience!!! Top this off with November being the start of the shopping season and the 360 looking super attractive at the new price point!!! I'm guessing things are gonna get worse for Sony before they get better.
Is that your LBP ball on the floor? Cuz I think you dropped it!
I'm the biggest Gears fan there is and was expecting the most from Gears 2! And i can honestly say, Epic DELIVERED exactly what I wanted!!! I Freakin love this game!!!
Got a complaint about the very ending, and maybe some multi-player glitches. But with an update, those will be fixed soon. Other then that...This game is the SHIZTNITZ!!!
I actually don't mind games being 10 hours...I actually kinda like it. LOL
Okay, let me first mention that I'm a casual gamer. I don't have all the time in the world to focus on games like I usto. So games like Gears, Halo, Mass Efect, etc... are perfect for me cuz I can actually have expectations of beating it.
Unlike a game like Fallout 3 which however great people will tell me it is, I won't buy it cuz I'll never be able to finish it! i mean by the time I'm fully i...
Best GAME ever!!! Enough said! LOL
LBP is a great game being done wrong by Sony. They should be marketing it like MS does to Gears and Halo. I mean, I honestly didn't even know it was out! Only found out by accidently seeing it in the back of a gamecase at Gamestop. unlike Gears of War which has posters and flyers EVERYWHERE!!! At this rate, it'll be lucky to reach 2 million!!!
Don't worry Sackboy, we still love ya!
Besides being poorly written, it doesn't support anything. His only arguement was "Ask yourself this, did you buy your console for the interface or for the games?"
It's not that simple. Consumers are a lot more complicated then this. I myself have spoken with 3 people who will be picking up the 360 because of the new Netflix deal. There not huge into gaming,but being able to stream movies to there T.V.'s easily sold them.
As Great as this game might be...I feel Sony is botching LBP launch. I mean I didn't even know this game was out till I walked into a Gamestop and happened to see it inside the case. i mean, there was no posters, no flyers...NOTHING!!!
and I haven't seen no commercials or heard anyone talk about it! Grrrr
It's things like this that piss me off about gaming! Great games get ignored and crappy titles like ones from EA get all this press!!!!
I think this is gonna be a HUGE disappointment!! They needed to make a TRUE sequal to Call of Duty.
I didn't even know it came out today??? Does anybody know if they had an overnight launch or anything?? sony doesn't seem to be selling this game very good.
GamePro calling Resistance 2 out as being inferior to Gears 2??? That's gonna piss off A LOT of Sony fanboys! Especially since we all know how in bed Gamepro is with Sony.
But regardless, people shouldn't cry...it's still a great score! Enjoy it!
I think I just soiled my pants!!! SO SICK!!!
I'm all about the single player campaign. and that my friends is FREAKIN AWESOME!!!
Obviously you haven't played it cuz, this game is FREAKIN AWESOME!!! Molyneux is a little over emotional, but gotta give him credit for being compassionate about his work. I mean would you rather someone like him or guys over at EA who put out generic garbage.
But I'll hold out my own judgemnet till I play it. But I think game of the year will probably fall between
1. MGS4
2. Fable II
3. LBP
4. Gears II
5. GTA
But regardless, it's a great time to be a gamer!!!
Atari!!! LOL But seriously, glad that game is still gonna come out regardless who publishes it as it looks pretty cool. But a years, away??? I wonder why?? hmmm...
I Want this game SOOOO EFFIN BAD!!! I LOVE Gears of War but reading this article probable makes me want this game even more!!!
November cannot come soon enough!
This article is just straight DUMB written by a known Sony fanboy. Don't even waist your time reading this nonsense as he's logic is "surprisingly" wrong and bias.
Let's save this discussion to a real information source. And whoever approves articles like this should be re-evaluated.
so much spinning going on in this board it's making me dizzy!!
