I constantly see articles and people saying that the PSN sucks. I dont see where that comes from. There is nothing the PSN doesnt do that I need it to do.
Can i play online with my friends? yes
Can msg them and see when they are online? yes
can i download updates and games? yes

What else does there need to be? The ingame XMB isnt even 'psn' related, so that couldnt have been a factor in saying the psn sucks. And with the addition of trophies (more to the p...

Give me a break.

'beating' the compitition doesnt win you anything, being profitable does. If it was soooo important to outsell the competition, why is the 360 doing so well this gen? Sony 'won' last gen right? Because it doesnt matter to anyone but fans of 'console wars'. Sure its allways the goal to outsell the competition, but if 'winning' means loosing money, it doesnt help your (keyword here kids) BUSINESS.

The fact is, ALL 3 consoles this generation are goi...

would it be any different than a computer mag giving you a demo on a disc and you buying the mag simply for the demo?

It sounds like Sony intentionally is leaving it up to developers to decide if they want custom soundtracks available during the playing of their game. It's just a different viewpoint. The game experience is in the hands of the developer, if they feel custom sountracks deter from the game experience (for whatever reason) it allows them to decide to use it or not.

I would say rather than strictly a developer's call, it has to do with wether said game uses locked game saves or not. If they do, they may be allowed to retroactivly incorporate trophies.

Considering they said the in game XMB is the same, it's not suprising to see that there. I would bet money that if you click 'start a chat' it will give you the same 'this will end your current game' message. It's also been mentioned on the neogaf forum by people who gave us (now prooven correct) information that chat was not going to be a part of this update.

One line in that article is disturbing to me:

"Q: Call of Duty 4 was a shorter gameplay experience in terms of playtime – seemingly iterated and edited down for quality. Are you taking a similar approach with World at War?"

"A: ...we’ve discovered what works and what doesn’t, especially by reading the reviews..."

Companies changing what they do to apease reviewers is a bad thing. Not everyone agrees with reviews, lots of people ...

Go in most stores and try to find the MGS4 bundle, and you'll have the answer.

Quoted October 12th, 2009 from Cliffy B:

"Gears 3 is amazing, it makes Gears 2 look like a train wreck, I look at Gears 3 and want to piss on Gears 2!"

I dont disagree with your points, however why would Epic care if people are buying 360's to play GOW2 instead of just buying it on the pc?

It's good for MS, but it doesnt really change much for Epic.

Interesting but not for me. I (as a wii & ps3 owner) for one am ready for motion control to fade away. I allways disable motion control when i am able to do so, the only time i find it remotly fun is minigames in a group setting, but that is a very very minimal part of gaming for me. I'm fine with the technology being their, but not with it being forced on us like it was on the ps3 when it first game out

because it doesnt work that way, firmware is independent of it's previous versions. you could install any version firmware update from any older version, you dont need to 'step' updates. I would say the likley cause is that the 'improved system stability' would have been part of 2.40 but something pushed 2.40 further out, so they updated this part now.

I like RTS games, looks good, If it ever comes out on the PC i'll pick it up.

Not a single one of the items listed is a cheat. Why is it that over the last couple years, game websites consider unlockables cheats? They arent. Interesting list otherwise.
