I'm getting sick and tired of people using the whole "Remove Watching Blu Ray". That COMPLETELY negates the point of the system of not only on Movies, but you DO realize the games are Blu-Ray also.
You might as well use the analogy of "Well what if Sony just made your system only with the start up sequence", because it's just the equivalence if you use the other analogy.
That is true. What the article is targeting is "the argument that there is no difference between 720p and 1080p", in which anyone with a brain knows that there IS a difference, otherwise...what would have been the point of calling it 1080p to begin with. >_>
But yea, one game I tried the 580 and 720 thing on, was Last Remnant, and man...you were able to obviously tell the difference.
One of the main reasons why people are pissed off was the Expertzone incident. People in retail were able to get a beta key for Reach, HOWEVER, people around the internet decided to flock to the site, put up false information, and get not just 1, but MULTIPLE codes. Not only that, but they then turned it around, and started selling the codes for profit.
You mean the same with Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleyball...
Businesses do use websites for various things. It's not something that you only read. People do transactions online, there are conferences, etc.
There's all kinds of things a simple website can offer.
I would have to agree with Apocalypse Shadow on the analogy. This isn't a physical removal of a product, it's a software removal of a not highly used feature.
Though I would change the radio analogy from 1 radio signal to a small range instead of 1 channel.
This was not them coming in and messing up your product. The key thing, the KEY thing is that the update is optional, it wasn't downloaded in the background, there was a TOS that they gave you, and people agreed ...
"If GAME sold a PS3 with the OtherOS feature on it then I'd say it's their problem & the purchaser should be reimbursed with a new unit which has the otherOS feature on it.
"
That's one of the biggest loads of a statement if I ever heard one. So by your logic EVERY COMPANY THAT SELLS PRODUCTS NOT MADE BY THEM WOULD BE HELD IN FAULT if something changed on the product they sold, and the customer didn't like it.
There was a different situation in Hartford, Conn. where a 78-year-old man was in a hit-and-run accident. People did nothing, one guy stops briefly and then left, and another just circled around the guy and then left.
This has nothing to do with violent video games. It has to do with the "me" attitude in society. It's the mindset of "if it didn't happen to me, it's not my problem."
Rather than the media and such addressing the TRUE problem, they ...
It's not. Though fanboys from both sides want to act like it is.
Like FF14 is to PS3, Mass Effect is like to 360.
Both are on console and PC, but they want to act as if it's exclusive and something to hold high.
Might as well say that, because all these moves don't make any sense.
And for the idea of region closing at launch, this actually makes me more mad then optimistic, because they said it's CONSIDERED for future consideration.
Granted I know this is Blizzard, so we'll have more of a chance to have that happen, than what happened with IW and MW2, but BECAUSE of the fact that Activision actually have to turn to them now for a source of income, since Guitar Hero and Tony ...
If he was able to nab pictures, why didn't he just go ahead and make a video to begin with?
I mean i'm not trying to sound nitpicking about it, but haven't people already seen in the past that a lot of times screenshots don't do a game justice anymore? >_<
"sephiroth nearly destroyed the entire planet, its was seconds away from destruction, u dont have to be crazy to be evil, it was his intent that was evil"
Where as Kefka DID destroy the planet. The both idea of intent and crazy to be evil is still leading off...to be evil.
@9.2
Why in the world did you guys give him 2 disagrees for something that is true? >_>
"Sephiroth is more bad ass than Kefka, but no one will be crazier than Kefka. The guy is a definition of 'evil'. He should be tops in that list, not Sephiroth."
I kinda agree with that, though they did say they aren't allowed to number them. :p
Granted Sephiroth is another likeable villian from the FF series, I'd have to give the Bat**** crazy overall title to Kefka. The amount of stuff Sephiroth did in FF7 is kinda pale in comparison to the amount of grie...
"Oh yea i have a bachelors in Criminal Justice and the last time i check this isn't a essay contest or dissertation to receive a degree ."
Translation: You don't have that degree, and you're just lazy to type.
there's all this talk of how the 360 is surpassing the PS3 in terms of visuals and such..
People have this convenient way of COMPLETELY ignoring the idea behind the games on PC.
Better yet, the articles a while back on here about Alan Wake, were stolen screen shots of the canceled PC version 2 years ago.
people are trying to deny saying that these are old screen shots when people already provided links from IGN and other places proving it. -_-
Way to not actually take the time to research up on the changes they did...
-Improved quicker battle times
-Story of 2nd one focuses on your character
-6 player parties
-Weather system which affects the region you're in
etc.
@6 I know for sure you're trying to instigate a fight... -_-
@butterfinger
It's not because of people like Fishy Fingers that is the reason why iPhone isn't taken seriously as a gaming device....it's the amount of application crap you have to wade through to even find anything notable in terms of gaming.
Ok there's a couple of things wrong with this statement:
1) What kind of supercomputer in a company is CONNECTED TO PSN??
2) This isn't to the degree of RROD, where it had the possibility to affect EVERY system to a HARDWARE flaw, where as this only affected the first run of the system.
3) MS didn't have a backup warranty until after the issue was widespread.
