I hate to step on your toes here but MS suggested Kinect support on PCs a while back... And the original Xbox was the first to support a built in HD of the two companies. You do make a good point about copying though, so the suggestion of Sony always copying MS is a little broken, as MS have taken things from Sony too!
EDIT: Atleast, I am fairly sure MS have been talking about it for a little while :S.
EDIT2: On topic!!! I th...
Lol are you serious?! The article is for the most anticipated PS3 games! Look at the article again! It even says "But as ever we can’t help but look ahead at what’s to come and consider what our PS3s have in store for us."!! And it is tagged in the article as a PS3 story!
OT: The list is pretty good! Though I have no idea how Skyrim hasn't made it!!
Hi all!!
Can I just ask why one advantage is 'Dedicated Server' and other is 'Auto Host Migration'?
As far As I knew, dedicated servers meant no host? But I am fully accepting that my knowledge here may be incorrect!
The game is doomed?!
Activision could dump in a gamecase, stick 'Modern Warfare 3: Ltd Ed' on the front, and sell it for more than standard RRP and it'd still shift millions! Hell, they proved that with Black Ops!
The article actually says 'are sports for every child?'. I stopped reading when I saw that! I am fairly sure that having a game like Halo in school wouldn't improve children! If anyhing, they would get less work done, and the tiny bit of exercise they get through the day would be replaced with playing a game?!
Kids don't get enough exercise as it is! It's terrible they replace proper sports with wii (I didn't even know anywhere did that!). Kids who d...
I am SO PSYKED for this game!!
My facveourite MK to date was MK2, back in the days of the Megadrive (Or Genesis to you guys across the pond!). If this game even comes close to that it'll be awesome! Might even be worth me picking up the new style 360 control, companies don't make d-pads like they did way back when!
EDIT: I just hope there isn't too much 'juggling' :(.
Loved VT since the Dreamcast game! Back in the days of Phillipousis and his ridiculous serve!
And to all the anti-Kinect fanboys who have commented on the 'spin' issue... HAVE ANY OF YOU EVER ACTUALLY PLAYED TENNIS?! Yes, super advanced players can achieve extra spin with wrist movements, but most of the spin is done with the movement of your arm... Unfortunately, that is the physics of the game. Table tennis is largely wrist, but tennis is not.
A...
Bigpappy, you couldn't be more right I think.
As far as I'm concerned, one device which you hold, with a trigger on the back and a thumbstick would be perfect. Implement some tracking so it knows where on the screen that you're shooting (So the gun isn't always forced to point at the centre of the screen for an FPS for eg) and that's all you need.
They could think of motion movements for changing weapons, picking up weapons, opening do...
Bubbles, Bubbles for both!!
"Silly Charizard, you're a flying type". Response "I can learn earthquake!"
LOVE THAT! Anyone who doesn't know Pokemon would be like 'Flying type... The F**k?!'.
And yeah it was a pretty good read! (The article I mean!)
@xAlmostPro..
I was wondering when some genius would come and use that. I mean... We all know Sony didn't spend ANYTHING on marketing Move don't we... /s.
Oh wait, take a look at this article:

According to the report, in 2009, Sony spent 130 million dollars on a Christmas campaign for the P...
'PS3 sold over 3 mill in EU and Japan'... Erm, No it didn't.
'360 sold onle 1.5 mill in EU and japan in December'... This is probably about correct.
It would be a fair estimate to suggest that both consoles sold a similar amount overall in the two regions you mentioned... BUT I can't say that for sure, because I have no facts to back it up... I can only discuss the rumoured numbers. NO sources discuss the ridiculous numbers you hav...
@AAACE
Sorry dude, I was answering a comment made below!!
I just can't believe that people keep pulling out the '500 mill ad campaign' as a reason for the Xbox and Kinect doing well!
To the people that are suggesting that... Do you have ANY IDEA how much ad campaigns actually cost?! Let me put it in perspective... ONE 30 second ad mid superbowl broadcast costs more than THREE MILLION DOLLARS. Other adverts cost similar for a set of over a month or so! AD CAMPAIGNS ARE EXPENSIVE! In the US alone, 141.1 billion was spent...
It was only annoying in GOW1 in laggy servers. Any time a match had a good connection, I was able able to win most one on ones vs wallbouncers.
If GOW3 has no lag online, then wallbouncing will swiftly lose popularity, as a target doing it is so easy to hit if your shots aren't flying out of your shotgun half a second after you pull the trigger!
Why does this 'Filthy Eskimo' seem to suggest that his website (nextgn) is multiplat?? And why does he suggest that he has more than one author?!
All I ever see from this site is pro ps and anti xb... It's basically a fanboy who has created a site, just to support one console. I have nothing against that, but why try to trick people into thinking that this is a site where many authors are discussing many consoles???
It's one guy... BEGGING for hits. A...
How, in the holy mother of F**k, is Gears 3 not on this list?!
I mean, the game might not be everybodies cup of tea, but that is the same FOR EVERY SINGLE GAME! Some games suit certain gamers, and others don't! But to not include that game on a list like this is INSANE.
And ok, ok, I know this is an opinion, but it just doesn't make sense! There are LOADS more games coming out next year that i'm sure loads of people are more than psyched for! ...
...he is caught by someone who can make him really 'think' about being such an evil prick...
... they put Street Fighter on there, and not MK. I am fairly sure the argument could be made that BOTH titles helped define the fighting game genre.
I know that the original Street Fighter was released way before MK... But that game wasn't exactly big... Infact, the average person you ask wouldn't even remember that game! As far as most people are concerned (of the people I know anyway) the 'first' Street Fighter was Number 2! It causes much confusion beca...
I am not kidding atall! I was literally just about to type that exact thing! Then I saw your post!
My main 'wow' memory was stepping out of those sewers and seeing the huge expanse of land all around! Please... PLEASE let the sequal follow soon!!
Halo:CE is hands down the greatest Halo (as far as I'm concerned). I don't want them to tamper with the game... Lift the graphics and add online MP.
I just hate what was done to Spartans after the first game. Originally, they were tanks... You could run in guns blazing and (if you landed your shots and picked your targets) you could charge an elite and a few grunts and come out on top on Legendary. They ruined it after that... Elites could take you easily (especiall...
