If just a small percentage of PC games were good that's still a crap load of good games.
I'd say it was expensive not overpriced
He says it was overpriced and lacked features when it actually had pretty much all the features it has now plus BC which was removed and I don't think it was overpriced. It was certainly expensive though.
The reason I say that is because it had a whole lot of very expensive tech that cost more than it was being sold for. BluRay players at the time were at least another £400 above the cost of the PS3 which c...
MS is trying to do everything it can to distance itself from the whole RROD fiasco. Since the RROD is so strongly connected to the 360s image they've changed the design and got rid of the red ring completely which means that without a red ring there will be far less people in future talking about 360s getting RROD and putting off potential buyers.
This gives the brand a whole new look (one that's less connected to the RROD) in the eyes of your average customer.
People seem to be forgetting that you also get access to betas which is great IMO.
I was wrong. ME1 actually got enhancements.
Mass Effect games are 360 games ported to PC with no enhancements.
I think the only people who care about the lag are the core gamers. Lag is a non-issue to all the casuals getting super hyped about kinect and TBH that's all that matters for MS since it's them they're targeting.
I think too many people have been spoilt with games that have great visuals. From watching the gameplay videos of Twisted Metal it does look like their major focus is on gameplay which is the main thing.
Nobody complains about Halo or Crackdown graphics yet they're lots of fun to play so I see no need to complain about the way this game looks as long as they can deliver great gameplay.
I'm assuming signing up to PS+ will get you in the beta.
Yep, no point in buying one if your current 360 is working fine. You never know, the one you've got might never even break.
How does blu-ray relate to this?
We don't know what kind of track editing we'll get in the game. For all we know it could be simply setting up your own course around an existing track or it could be full-blown track creation.
The track editor is old news now but go-karts is new.
It's true that Sony's R&D has been messing around with motion tech for a while now but what matters is that the tech is well supported with quality software.
On costs though I wonder how much the average Wii owning household has ended up spending on accessories.
I'll be surprised if anything you've said gets through to them. You're right and I agree it's far too early to be making any sort of conclusion.
edit: I remember getting similar lines in the past with one of my old graphics cards. Could it be a driver issue?
I agree it was somehwat underwhelming for me as someone who is completely new to Twisted Metal and has played similar games like Carmageddon.
While it didn't look all that amazing it did remind me of the all the fun I had with Carmageddon which is why I'm looking forward to trying the game at some point.
Actually Sony probably can replicate it. Remember that Sony is a tech giant and has miost likely been working on the same kind of 3D tech that's used in the 3DS which is why Kaz's comment was based "off internally conducted research".
lol no I got it. I was just extending on it.
3DS is great but 3D tech that doesn't need glasses still has a long way to go. The 3DS requires you to view it from a certain angle which won't work for household TVs since they're viewed from many different angles. Not just horizontal angles but vertical too since some people have their TVs below eye level and some above when sat down.
It seems to work amazingly well in a hand-held device so I'll probably get one.
They're also releasing the first game on the same disk with the improvements of the second so should be pretty good for those who haven't played it yet.
