If creating a controller which is innovative and easy to use and having a market campaign which is so large and ongoing that it makes Halo 3's advertising seem like Sonys then yeah Nintendo have done nothing
Sony seriously need to 'do' something in practicaly every territory they're relying to heavily on PS2 users converting and a lot of those people got a Wii or 360 now and more will continue to do so
You dont gain market share by doing nothing
Thats MS marketing for you, unrivaled in scale and epicness
I can only imagine what the Gears 2 advert will be like, if the mad world one in 2006 is anything to go by it will be pure greatness
I didnt say anything about LBP, this game is taking its own approach of user generated content and its doing a very good job at it
And LBP doesnt look like a kids game?
I still think a bluray player developed years after the PS3 has a good chance of being just as good as the PS3
And whose knows maybe the bluray drive will have its own mini harddrive for BD-Live
The quality will likely be a matter of opinion
Also like the PS3 the 360 bluray will be able to be updated with firmware updates making it more than a worthy competitior for the best bluray player
Not to mention bluray is bluray if you can watch a hd def movie for cheap poeple are going to do it, and i got a feeling MS will be able to market the feature a lot better than Sony
Its good to see a new IP succeeding, especially one from EA
Will likely give Capcom and Resisdent Evil a run for their money
I doubt it will be $199, $150 at most considering the 360 will do most of the work itself and the cost of bluray lasers would of decreased
Fair enough MS charge a lot for addons but they want to be an alternative to the PS3 and at $150 it will be a cheaper alternative to bluray
Since a percentage of PS3 owners are just bluray player users by doing this they can take a lot of potential movie watchers from Sony
Its always good to have a choice and at that price you could buy a 360 with bluray for cheaper than a PS3
Doesnt look very good to be honest, but i guess theres still time to improve it
And the more exclusives the better
Looks really really promising!
Hopefully this game will get an average rating of over 90% and people will finally start having faith in RARE again
i doubt casual gamers are willing to pay $400 for one game no matter how good it may be
That would be a huge boost for MS, with fable in Oct and gears in Nov this could be the biggest holiday for the 360 so far
Looks grim for the PS3, Sony better cut their price fast or the holiday season will just pass them by
Free games are free games, but they could of choose slighty better ones
At least this way it does maximise sales for heavy hitters like fable and gears which are going to sell millions even without being bundled
Well it will only get worse when the game is released to the whole public
I just hope a mother or father playing with the young children dont come across levels like this or this could get really ugly
Well at least they make money with every console they sell, unlike some companies >_>
Thats definately a 360 controller, hopefully this means the game will be released in the US and EU a lot quicker than expected
WOW it looks unbelieveable!!!
Definatly shooter of the year by a long shot :)
If MS back this game as much as they did Halo 3 it could sell up to 3ml on just day one and possibly beat Halo 3's current record
360 on top with software sales, no surprise there, its the same everywhere else which is why it has the highest attach rate
Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid 3, Zelda:TP and SSBB beg to differ
In fact out of the big 3 Nintendo has the most 1st party games which are rated 90 or above and SMG is only second to GTA:IV
And another thing i think its pretty clear that Nintendo dont need games to sell well the console is enough for the consumer, Sony on the other hand needs games which game sell on the same scale as Halo 3 and Wii Sports
