I was always kinda suspect about MS figures for the 360 for a good while now. Think of all the broken down 360s from RROD and the guys who simply bought new consoles? You can count some of those sales to duplicate customers! And what about the many games developers and publishers like EA, Capcom, Ubisoft and Konami who all previously said that most of their revenue and game sales came from the PS3 market? GTA 4 sold an equal amount of copies on both the 360 and PS3 (regardless of exclusive dl...
Uncharted 2 is simply the best game out now in this current-gen era of gaming. I completed it about two or so months ago and all I could say was, "WHAT A GAME!". I thought he first Uncharted was brilliant, and I just could'nt see how much better Naughty Dog could make the next installment. But to my delightful surprise, U2 simply just made U1 a memory once I eventually completed it. Well deserved award!
Uncharted 2 HAD to be the game of year - what else could have com...
Rockstar made the most realistic, detailed New York City-style open world environment ever seen in a video game. The graphics, details, art design, effects, animations - every visual and audio aspect of GTA 4 was of excellent standards (though the music on the radio stations could have been better). It had a fairly good storyline.
GTA 4 had the perfect foundations set for it to be potentially the best GTA game ever made. But it tragically failed to do that. Why? It is due to the simple...
I might buy one if I see it with games like Uncharted 2
If Rockstar are gonna make a next GTA it has GOT to be a better game than GTA 4, which of course was a good, but it's still a disappointing game. I wanna see more varied and fun side missions with different ways to make money and gain power like robbing banks, stores, heists, selling and moving drugs, buying properties, owning businesses, taking over territories and building up your own gang. I also wanna see the main character being able to enter every store and public building in the game. ...
The best graphics I have ever seen, no contest from anything else!
Thats what they and Microsoft get for being greedy by making silly exclusivity deals on such a huge multi-platform game series that originally made it's name on a previous platform. In the long run it would have benefitted Rockstar NOT to have made the DLC excluisve and to have released DLC episodes for the PC and PS3 at the same time as the 360, because they would have least made much more money in sales profits. But they chose to ice out the PS3 and now nearly 2 decades later release it on ...
The funny thing is, I thought the same things about the first Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. The first time I saw and played Uncharted 1 it just blew me away. But Naughty Dog have raised the bar again! And a BIG well done to them, because now a lot more attention is being paid to the series that it now deserves. Uncharted 2 has to be the best game I have played AND seen on my PS3 so far. In fact, I simply cannot see any forthcoming current-gen console game matching it's immensely stunning graphi...
What failure? Come on now my friend. The GTA DLC episodes simply did not meet their commercial expectations and they did not sell as well as Take-Two and Microsoft would have liked. So therefore, it will be regarded by both companies as a relatively commerical failure. This is what the damn article is about, READ IT. The actual CEO himself of Take-Two, the company which publishes GTA 4 as you already know is the man saying all of this about the DLC episodes failing:
"Both ...
I bought GTA 4 for my PS3 on first day lauch, pre-ordered. I'm a massive GTA fan and I was so excited and so looking forward to playing this game. But unfortunately like many, I felt GTA 4 was a major letdown and big dissappointment. And no before you 360 fanatics start on me, I'm not saying the game was rubbish or very boring to play, as it's still a very good game that's fun to play with stunning graphics and an interesting storyline. But aside from all of that, the bottom line is that GTA ...
Thats what happen's when your subisdary company by the name of Rockstar sells out to Microsoft for a fat cheque in exchange for exclusive GTA 4 DLC. If the fools at Rockstar decided to make the DLC multi-platform they might have had more sales on the PS3 to boost their earnings. I'm not that fussed about the exclusive DLC anyway because GTA 4 was a big letdown anyway for a number of reasons, even though it was still a good game. The DLC did'nt look that special either - the first one was some...
And I'm glad that these games awards judges have acknowledged this. I completed Uncharted 2 like last month, and I can tell you I spent everyday playing it from when I started to when I finished. The game has everything to offer on a grand scale:
Graphics - Simply inrcedible and very stunning to look at. The immense detail, various effects, animations and designs are the best seen this generation, no arguments.
Sound - The soundtrack is more than good enough, and...
@ BubloZX, you wrote,

Sh*t I had to laugh that one man! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA LOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!
WHATEVER.....I'm very happy with what Sony is offering for my PS3 right now. After playing stunning exclusive Sony games like Uncharted 2 that 360 cannot handle and still getting the best multi-plat games like CODMW 2, and STILL the 360 has RROD and reliability issues, I really dont think MS's inflated comments about the 360 are gonna sway me one bit.
GTA 4 simply was the not the excellent game is was hyped up to be - while it was still a very good game, it was in many ways a major letdown at the same time. Many fans of the series were very dissappointed with the main GTA 4 game in general, and that is main reason why the DLC episodes did not do so well and sell many copies. Many original GTA fans were so put off by GTA 4, that they decided not to bother spending extra money on DLC for a game that was not as great as it should have been. I...
I'm just correcting a mistake as it's too late to edit it. When I was talking about the first Xbox 1 being more powerful than the PS2, there was one moment when I referred to the PS2 as 'the PS3'. I had meant a PS2 for those who have read it.
Thanks
After seeing and playing Uncharted 2 on my PS3 in HD, there can only be one conclusion to this - the PS3 clearly has better graphics than the 360. Uncharted 2 has the best graphics of any console game I've seen so far this generation. I even thought Uncharted 1 had that title until I finally saw and played part 2. There are a number other exclusive Sony games that demonstrated the PS3's graphical superiority - Killzone 2, MGS4, Gran Turismo 5, Ratchet & Clank etc. I dont have to name them...
This is no fanboy stuff here and anyone who wants to go there, just forget about it, because I'm speaking from my real thoughts. I'm very serious in what I'm saying here. I played Gears of War 2 last Christmas at my cousin's house and while I thought it looked good and action-packed, I personally did'nt see what the big fuss was about. It's nothing I aint seen before - steroid-taking, muscular space marines with big, mean bazookas blasting aliens to pieces. I dont see anything groundbreaking,...
MS seem to think by churning out new Halo after Halo titles every so often in the year or next will guarantee them a lion's share of the console software/hardware sales. I think they gotta be careful and realise that there is a chance that many gamers may actually begin to get very tired and bored of the same/similar Halo stuff pretty quickly. It's already showing in some of these posts here. MS really are milking Halo a bit too much this generation
