But what about backward compatibility with ps2 games?
Both MSFT and Sony are hit for that, while the the wii can play game cube games with the game cube controllers.
Everyone is bashing the author and the article not the 360. This article is abit, hmm stupid. Its about how a controller is better than the other and that its why people buy the console.
So its not games and hardware that sell a system its a controller? Sure it works for Nintendo, but not the 360. I am pretty sure if the 360 and ps3 had the same exact games at the same time, the controller would make a compelling arguement. But its not. The controller will have almost the same ...
Did the author even know that there was a system called the Nintendo Wii, with full motion sensing and is gyromatic? I know its a PS3 vs 360 article, but how could he bring up controllers without mentioning how the Wii-mote is the reason the Wii is kicking arse.
Perhaps he is from a country where the wii is so constantly sold out that he has never seen it, like America ;)
O boy.
Your comment was so betamax.
So no wait it was worse. Your comment and your opinion is like the Milli Vanilli of N4g, kid.
IPTV is coming to the ps3 too. ITs already in Europe and in South Korea.
Your facts failed.
Paramount signed a 18 month deal with HD DVD in August 2007 (8/07)
~that means about 13 months until HD DVD is "officially" dead.
Then again Universal could jump ship at any time, as long as their daddy MSFT let's them.
um, MSFT didn't "create" HD DVD, they simple just endorsed it.
Sony - 1, Toshiba - 0 actually.
Microsoft doesn't have too much to lose from this. Stop crying.
So Sony makes alot of stuff.
China is a communist nation, with no power for the average man or women. The country has barely any human rights, and most of people in the country live in poverty working over 60 hours a week. The country produces items and sell them to retailers, in which sell it for more to the customer in their country.
So in all actuality, should I stop shopping in Wa...
its actually outlaw Joesy Wales, actor Clint Eastwood.
I guess I must be immature for having a avatar? Great theory, mr. UT3. You must be an adult, being your avatar is of a M rated game.
Perhaps, when you get past the avatar insults, you will start reading the words instead of looking at the pictures.
YOU ARE THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A TOOL.
Seriously, get over your self and grow up.
People buy the Wii for one reason.
Wii Sports, which happens to come with the Wii.
Just buy a playstation 3. Even if you hate the Sony and do not want to buy games for it, it can still do a couple things like go on the internet and use the hard drive, a visual player, etc.
I know my 360 can do the same things, but it doesn't come with a blu-ray player.
O and I bet Microsoft is going to work some kind of deal for WoW on the 360. Blizzard can't say no to half a billion dollar deal.
WoW on a console is a definitely coming. no matter what blizzard says, the bosses say "yes".
And Ubisoft will probally eventually buy some of Eido's trademarks, Tomb raider, dues ex, or Hitman. Eido's is losing money left and right, and I am surprised no one is reporting that.
EDIT: Sony put Everyquest online...
Nope.
MGs4 will not come to 360, Sony "helped" with some of the budget.
Metal Gear Online however is a toss up. That Game I definately see going to 360. Besides cod4/r6/ghost recon on the xbox, there is long void of tactical games which happen to spew out money now adays.
The game is worth getting at 50$.
The game was one of the funniest games I have ever played.
I don't think EA will buy SEGA, but buy Atari.
I think SEGA will be the ones buying another development studio, not being bought out.
I see Capcom and Konami merging sometime in the next 5 years.
HD DVD is dead because Warner is going to release lord of rings on blue ray soon.
toshiba put up a good fight, and still is a respectable company that I would gladdy buy their products from. O well, Can't wait for blu-ray players to have the drm affect with certain movies in the future.
That's right the next wave of blu-ray players will all come with hard drives. So wtf? Won't disc sales go down?
Edit: Virtual Fighter 5 remix (6?) end of 2008/earl...
for 40$, i hope not!
The CES is the 7th-9th and today the 6th it just a "preshow".
wait a few days it will come, heck Sony hasn't even mentioned anything PS3 related either.
Either that or both companies are waiting for GDC 08 instead.
