I wish I could say that Kotick is doing harm to Activisions reputation and that removing him would fix the company...but it wouldn't. He is just the figurehead for a group of even more rich douchebags.
What's more is that nothing will EVER change. Cheers for buying MW2 guys, the legitimate creative developers and publishers than are having to get bought out but the likes of Kotick really appreciate your moral stance on corrupt industry practices.
Hows...
"possibly not good to start my first post with a rant"
No by all means continue, you will fit in well here, pull up a stool next to apathetic Adam and procrastination Pete...we can muse on what is wrong with everyone but ourselves....
/ drenched in sarcasm yet i'm 100% serious.
The MMO move is nothing but a grab for money, can't blame them...but I sure don't have to like it.
We are consumers, we do not h...
I'm still pissed they didn't make kotor 3.
I don't know why they couldn't have made an 80hr star wars RPG...
I think the execs would consider that 'too much value'... ala Starcraft 2...apparently 3 campaigns in 1 game was a burden on our fickle minds and we instead need to be told how a game like this could only be done in an MMO settings and SC2 over 3 games...B.S

There are more disagrees than there are PC gamers that visit this site: therefore PS3 fanboys are full of $#!+...why single them out, because 360 fanboys don't rag on crysis.
I have lost count how many times i've played through crysis, and I certainly didn't play through a 15hr campaign a bunch of times just for the graphics.
Epic game in all forms, 9/10 in all categories, from sound to gameplay to graphics...
Good write up, a lot of RAGE previews were filled with too much subjective crap and the writers emotions, this is what a proper article should read like, describing the gameplay FACTS.
Can't wait for RAGE. ( god damn I'm sick of having to capitalise that word ), vote for me and I will erase all upper case letters...
It's an MMO....just about any card will do 30frames @ 1080p in this game.
They also made scalable game settings for a reason. You say that like it's a bad thing, I doubt you would be dissing it if you had the option to play PS4 games on your PS3 with slightly reduced settings, especially when they would look at least as good as the best PS3 games with the lower settings ala PC on low settings vs. PS3
Currently there is no monitor that has a combination of IPS panel ( or anything other than TN ) in addition to 120hz or LED.
You can buy a
2560x1600 + IPS
1080p + 120hz
1080p + LED
1080p + IPS + LED
but there is no all encompasing super monitor...sad though it may be.
ACER GD245HQ is a 24" 1080p 120hz monitor and in the benchmarks against other 'better' monitor brands such as samsung, the acer benc...
"Graphics will look sweet on both platforms"
You might want to download the stand alone FF14 benchmark tool before you say that, it looks horrible... the benchmark only has two settings, 1080p and 720p... and it runs in windowed mode, lol, I think that may be a sign of the poor optimisation...
The reason pokemon is still good is because it stuck to the plan.
At it's core it is still a hard core RPG, stats, to hit chance, critical hits, elemental strengths and weaknesses ( the most advanced for any game, with dual elements and many kinds ).
I just want them to release a game that has ALL previous pokemon as well as the new ones on one disk ( cartridge ) instead of nickel and diming people with import functions so you need to play and trade from...
"1080p on PC"
Why even mention that, you can CHOOSE your resolution, most ( all ) modern games go at least up to 2560x1600...that might not be important now.
But like the HD doubters...in 3 years time it will be the new standard... it would suck playing games at 1920x1080 on a 2560x1600 monitor.
Future proof ftw
Yet there are twice that many praising it as the second coming...don't you find it strange that J.C is only being praised now when he has been chilling with the Nintendo execs for quite some time...
Not 1 article praising their innovation...
I take it you don't have a HDTV then...why would you sell it, at least with a PS3 it can be used as a Blu-Ray player...I have used my PS2 slim as a CD player for a long time, it's still going strong.
"lack of hardcore games"
What does that even mean, define what a hardcore game is....
99% of exclusives are as main stream as they come, I don't know what you think is hardcore but ALL shooters are mainstream and marketing hype. The only games that are not are horror games and different types of games like mirrors edge...something that you don't see every other day, and by that definition the Wii is definitely hard core because the games the...
What's wrong with case mods?

I already have a gaming PC and I sold my DS and DSi because there were no decent games...DS might have a bigger install base but PSP has much better games.
I would also not buy a console simply because of a colour change, the 360 slim has a HDD built in wifi and has resolved the heat and RROD problems of the old console, anyone who was on the fence about a 360 have no reason not to get one now. The PS3 slim has a bigger HDD and more features than the original PS3 ever did, as...
It's funny seeing all the support for motion control now that it's coming to PS360...but for the last 3 years we've heard: "Wii is for grandmothers, motion control is a gimmick"
Loving the look of the new 360...I may have to buy one soon.
With the PS3 slim and black wii out they all look very appealing.
Wouldn't hurt to own all of them, i'd be swimming in game releases...best save my $'s...
They should have put a 120mm fan in the modded side panel, you can never have too much cooling
EDIT:
@ Disagrees, my mistake, apparently it and every other console look like crap and ...
Kinect is off to a great start, I mean just look at all the great titles that are taking advantage off it...
Then again, Nintendo didn't exactly come out swinging with the wii line up and it's made them $$$$$$
If games go the Onlive route...I'll take a console over that any day.
God damn Jews trying to screw everyone...
Gotta love PC gaming, I saw a dual game pack today with Just Cause 1 and Deus EX...for $4...
Just installed Kotor 1 and got some HUD and widescreen mods for it...it's good playing the old classics.
