It has the average review score of 91% and I can't stop playing it. With the wireless racing wheel its ultra realistic. The physics is beyond what I expected and the graphics are solid and 60 fps on my 1080p TV...its super fun. The HDR lighting is spectacular and all the cars and customizing is off the charts. 91% makes it official. Another AAA title for the 360 that any racing sim fan shouldn't pass up on. Its just tooooooooo FUN.
New releases? Every week they add new releases....Movies only come out on Tuesdays you know...not every day...and they have many movies for download that are in HD that aren't even released on Blu ray or HD dvd yet. Blood Diamond for example. I'm on my way to my Son's Track meet otherwise I would turn my 360 on and lest the New releases for download. Maybe when I get back. But there are many. SUre it could always be more...but there is a solid selection and with Lionsgate making 3 millio...
Mean the graphics were bad? Sure it wasn't a 9 or 10 Graphically in "HIS OPINION"....but 8.3 is very good. And the game scoring 9.3 is just about what I expect across the board when all the reviews come in. But its funny to see Ps3 fans bash the game becaue it recieved an 8.3 for Graphics but a 9.3 overall. WOW... How many ps3 games released couldn't even score an 8.3 total? I mean...Motorstorm recieved an average of 8.3....but yet Sony fans love it. Forza will average in the...
How many of the 14 ps3 game rated over 80% were on the 360 months to a year prior and recieved a better rating on the 360?
What you will find is most if not "ALL" of the 14 were 360 titles but with lower scores on the ps3.
Next question is...What percentage of games rated in the 90% for the consoles? And how many games?
Once again...you will find that the 360 dominates this area...and the ONE game that the ps3 has that rated in the 90% i...
I love all the Unreals....and this one with 16-20 players online will be GREAT....and even if the Graphics weren't up to snuff with Gears...I would still be excited...but with the announced Gears of War Plus graphics....I'm super excited....I love my Halo 3 Beta....But there is nothing like Unreal...Fast Pace shooter action with beautiful graphics....I love Gears too....but all 3 while are FPS games....they play very very differently and are top notch at what they do.
And the difference is amazing. The colors are deeper and the blacks are blacker....Good Job Sony. I still haven't figured out on my 360 what to set my black reference levels at....I have the Elite hooked up via HDMI. Does anyone know what I'm suppose to set it at? I know if you have it hooked up via vga it should be set to expanded....but what about hdmi?
This is great news for any HD 1080p TV owners....It does improve the picture on the PS3....I'm about to watch Apocalypto...
The Wii is selling like crazy due to the 250 price. I have said it once and I'll say it again. THe 200 dollar price is the sweet spot in gaming and electronics....
There are many kids who want a 360 or a Ps3...but their parents go chec out the prices and say "Naw...I think I'll get him/her a Wii".
The "Game" sales for the Wii aren't nearly has high as game "sales" for the 360. Nintendo has 1 or 2 games selling well and the rest ar...
Start to develope for the 360 ONLY if the ps3 sales continue to dwindle at 100k or less a month. The biggest video game market in the WORLD...the USA....and your system just launched....but yet you sell 80k one month and 100k two other months...And yet Sony fans still say the ps3 is selling better than the 360 did when it launched. Not true...DO the Math folks....The 360 has never had a month to where it sold only 100k or less. On the slow months we are looking at 200k and typiclaly 300k.....
Halo 3 when its finally released in September will blow away other FPS'ers that came before it. There is obviously a lot of Halo Haters and Lovers....But you can't ignore the reviews for Resistance...Its averages in the mid 8's...which I believe is rated higher than it should be due to fact that it was the only slighly bright spot in the ps3's launch. All the other first and second party games rated in the 30's, 40's, and 50's repectfully. So while Resistence isn't a bad game...its far fro...
I have been enjoying the Halo 3 beta all week. I realize its not the final version of the game. But, with that said...I have played Resistence and of course the Halo 3 Beta....
And honestly the Halo 3 Beta blows Resistence away. Gears looks better at this point than the Halo 3 beta...but I would bet just about anything that once Halo 3 is releaeed...it will look better than Gears. Thats just my opinion. But to compare Resistence to any of the 360 shooters is a joke. Grap...
Which is better is a matter of opinion...but I know one thing for sure...both will look and have more substance than Motorstorm. Playing Motorstorm just made me excited about play some real off road racing games. Dirt being #1 on my list. The Season mode is un riveled and the gameplay has always been top notch....Sega Rally has always been arcady....I belive it will surpass the arcady Motorstorm in Graphics and Gameplay. I have alwyas loved Sega arcade racing games. Fast, beautiful and s...
On my 61 inch Samsung DLP 1080p TV....Forza 2's Demo looked notibly better than GT. The HDR lighting, The ground textures, the mountains, the sky, and the car models all looked better on Forza.
In regards to gameplay...this is where Forza 2 really makes GT look last gen. The controls for Forza 2 is unbelievable. I have the Wireless Racing Wheel and its just too realistic...
I believe once again.....Forza 2 will rate highly. Keep in mind...GT4 was a blemish i...
I'm only commenting on the article buddy. In regards to your comment about "Games". I have every Ps3 game available. And I'm dissappointed thus far.
But there are games I look foward to on both consoles. But I will not hide how elated I am about my 360 purchases just to make it seem like I'm fair. I'm not fair. Life isn't fair. I tell it like it is from my perspective as a Console and PC Gamer. I, unlike you, have no allegence to "ONE" console. Do ...
The Wii is outseling All "next Gen" consoles in every territory....
And the 360 is outselling the Ps3 in USA, Europe, and Canada.
I'm only referring to next gen consoles. Since those are the consoles of the future.
In my opinion the Wii is doing what its suppose to do as the cheaper "NEW" console.
The 360 is doing very well after over a year on the market....
And the ps3 is doing poorly as a ...
When he did the comparisson...did he have the 360 hooked to a standard def tv via composite cables?
Because on my 1080p tv and my ELite via HDMI look waaaaay better than any of those screens. When people do comparissons...they should at least explain in detail what type of set up they are using...When they do PC comparssions of video cards...they always explain in detail what type of computer, ram, processor, monitor, ect....
With the Elite available and HDMI....
The Graphics & Gameplay is Fantastic....I wish the beta was longer...Like All summer. At least until the Game gets released in September.... And to think its only the beta....I can't imagine all the improvements that will be made before the Final Game is released. I have no doubt that this game will be the "Greatest" game of 2007 and beyond.
Honestly they could release it as is and it would be the best game on any console...
One flaw in your theory.....
When the 360 launched....it averaged 4 games sold per console.
The ps3 averages 1 game sold per console.
Is the the amount of games?
Is the the AAA games?
Or is it the price of the ps3 is too high?
I think its a combination of all but most of all its the price.
How do you think the Wii would have done if it sold for 600 dollars?
Not nearly as goo...
But my question is this. Will they ever report how many they have sold. At lease MS gives "Sold" information.
If the ps3 has sold less than 1 million total in Japan
And 1 million in the USA
How many has sold in Europe?
Have they really sold 3 million?
And if so...How? and Where?
They have shipped 5.5 million but yet they have only sold "Half". So when they ship 11 million....I...
The US accounts for 60% of the market.
Europe is 25%
Japan is only 15%
Its been widely reported that the us market is twice as big as Europe and Europe's market is twice as big as the dwindling Japanese Next Gen market.
I find it interesting that they clearly say "Shipped". Unlike MS who clearly states "Sold".
In the 360's case...when a unit is shipped...its Sold. But in the ps3's case...shipped m...
90 million is their goal? That's going to be tuff. I honestly think they will get to about 60 to 70 million sold when its all said and done. But its nice to see that MS is shooting high.
In regards to the price drop.....I know for a fact that the core will be the first console to get to the 199 price point. It will offer a better value than the Wii....Especially with the motion detection games coming out soon. The Wii will always dominate Japan....but while Japan is the ...
