THERE ARE STILL ARCADES?!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry but the original KillerInsticts were only cool because of the graphics. I predict a flop, this will end up being a very mediocre fighting game. If its ever made.
I really like the part about social networking. It would be a really easy way also to find people to play games with online. For example the new Madden is going to have leagues. I want to find a league that I can count on. I can't think of a better way to put one together than with social networking.
I was not replying to anyone in specific. But just the article and some of the people and their reasons sense the game was released.
I will give this guy props for calling out most of these games. Even Mario Kart, I don't feel the same way but I get his point. But Final Fantasy. Here is how this works. The Final Fantasy series is what all RPG's strive to be. They are almost always near perfection. So if they are the golden egg of RPG's, then why would they stop making these games. Every sequel they reinvent the series. And every time it sends waves through the RPG community.
GTA 4 is a culmination of the series and the vision of its designers. If they were able to do a game like GTA4 on the PS1 THEY would have. GTA1 was limited by the technology of its time. I mean you wouldn't sit there and say the 3D mario games are not as good as the side scroller's would you? (wait..maybe a bunch of you would) But regardless, GTA 4 is an awesome game that is one of the most realized games of all time. Oh no you can't lift weights. SO Buy a weight set. Games are not real life....

People that say that the driving is not fun are seriously mistaken in my opinion. I also don't think they have learned it well enough. It just takes practice. At first I sucked at driving and was kinda on the fence about it. But now after practice I get it and I am good. The trick is, (on PS3) When driving fast and needing to turn. Hit and the hold the X button to slow down before the turn and then as you turn tap R1. Perfect turns every time. There is a lot of improv...
I think that there is only one game that can win GOTY this year.
IRON MAN
That game was the bomb yo. J/k
I need more money for all these great games. R2, Madden, Bioshock aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! !!!!
Thats a great trade off
*note sarcasm*
Dude chill out. Smoke a bowl, whatever you need to do. Now just breathe. I am on your side in this debate, but you just made yourself look like a douche. Why all the harsh words there. Chill. Breathe some more. Let your inner fanboy float away.
Be fanboy of games in general.
Do not be a douche
Treat others with respect.

If I bought Uncharted I would be pissed. It is way to short. It is however a great game. Also the same thing for Heavenly Sword. A game can be Great and Be a let down.
I bought a PS3 back in Feb. I absolutely love it. I originally was going to buy the 360. Then I start reading all these RROD reports and I start second guessing myself. Then I start thinking about all the games I would not get to play on 360. No God of War, Metal Gear Solid, FF, Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, MLB the Show, Little Big Planet etc. Then I start thinking about how I am used to the Playstation's controller for games like Madden, Tony Hawk, NBA2K, GTA 4. Then the free online gaming com...
You can't exclude sales in the rest of the world in a debate such as this. 360 is dead last everywhere else in the world. Even now in America their lead is diminishing more and more every month. Sony will eventually over take them. Its just a matter of time.
Is home going to be a free download when it comes out. Or do you pay for it and then its free. I wasn't all that interested in Home at first. The more I see of it though, the more I am starting to really want to try it out.
Next it will be 2:1 in America. Then the 360's price will drop to $200 and I will buy it. Microsofts pain = my gain.
I read the article and the whole interview. Did any of you? There was a lot of good stuff in there. He gives PS3 props and says that it benefited very well from the GTA launch. You Sony fan boys should be eating this up.
Start your pre-orders now. Gamestop is already taking pre-orders for God of War 3. 10 bucks here and there. Trust me it works.
I don't think they would fill space with a phony story about Bioshock. EGM is the #1 game magazine. Also I read on nextgen that there was code for PS3 settings found on the PC version.
Also those quarter man rumors or usually pretty accurate. I have a big back catalog of EGM's and if you go back and read them from a few years ago, I'd say 75% - 80% are true.
There may be better games than this in your opinion for PS3. But this is the one that is going to keep that momentum of the PS3 going for a while. After this the exclusives coming are gold. Combine that with a ton of strong 3rd party titles and you have a recipe for PS3 going full steam by the holidays.
