Let see what we learned from this news...
-Both version come in regular and limited. Yep, knew that already.
-The author will pick the 360 version because he is a sucker for achivements... Glad to find out there's still a sucker born every minutes...
Me, I'll pick the PS3 version : ) (Maybe we should make a news about this and see if it will get approved on NEWS 4 Gamers)
They don't care at all about hddvd!!! They are in it because they don't want a format to win. Bill Gates own a good chunck of the internet backbone and internet providers (why do you think he is buying shares in cable company for). He doesn't want a hard support to win. He want people to have to download movies and have no control over it. They won't be able to sell it back. They will have a timer on it. If PC crash, and they do since they run windows, you have to download again. And everyti...
In his own words, Sony is bad because they are bringing in Divx to allow PS3 users to pirate hddvd movies from exclusive company... And that would be bad? What is bribing those same company to switch side would be then?
Two things started this: It was the most wanted option to be added to the PS3, and quite likely, it's something that got started on both side of the fence, with Divx pushing their product on the 360 as well. Will they then say it's a conspiracy from hddvd to s...
In my case I have many friends who visit me regularly. Not all of them own a PS3. And I have only about 8 games so far. So I kept most demos from the games I don't own on my hard disk because even if they don't own a PS3 yet, they know the games. So when they come over for the first time, it's always: "Do you have this game, or that game?" So sure, if I have it they can play it, but it's also nice if they ask for one and I can start the demo. I have an 60Gig PS3. Only 10Gig left a...
Those are prediction, not the real numbers.
They only talk about the 80gig model, but not the 40gig model, which came out in october... Quite silly.
And remember, they are anal_yst... Example: ""This comes as a huge disappointment as critics have scored Ratchet & Clank much higher than Heavenly Sword." Score doesn't mean much... Only reason Heavenly Sword got a lower score is because it was short. Otherwise, it's still a game to beat on ma...
Price of the PS3 is down. Great games are coming out. So fanboys have nothing else to say against the PS3 anymore. Next step: create story where ONE user has a problem with a "power surge protector" or "dust". No record, no proof, but you only need to post that on a blog and sure enough, this is quickly approved by the usual N4G fanboys who somehow hate the PS3. In my area, if you pull a fire alarm switch and there's no fire, you get a fine. I think if you pull story like ...
First line: "The format war has been ongoing for over a year, and despite the fact there is no clear winner..."
Hmmmmm, no clear winner, but twice the sale for Bluray... A would say there's at least a clear looser, and it's the poor hd-dvd...
Then, he just has to wait until he get the PS3 back (as stated) with a document stating it's not under warranty because of dust (they HAVE to write down why it's not under warranty). Since it would not be under warranty anymore, he can then open it in front of two witness and take is own pictures of the inside. Witness sign the pictures. Next step, go to BBB and/or post the pictures all over the web with a scan of the letter claiming warranty is void. You can be sure he would get a call back ...
You want BC, you buy a 60Gig, or 80 Gig version, or you keep your old PS2 and buy a 40 gig version. The end.
We are in November, october numbers are out. Not sure why september numbers are suddenly news??? We can likely expect July numbers next week... : )
What I would have like to see is the advertising numbers for September. Microsoft advertising budget for Halo3 alone could have been enough to buy a small country!!! That would have been news.
No wonder he doesn't anything about the PS3... Both consoles still have the same amount of memory. They BOTH have 512Mb of memory. Sure the 360 handle it differently. But as is he saying between the line, if you fill the memory with textures on a 360, you have to compromise somewhere else because the CPU will not have enough memory. And if you crank the CPU memory, then you have less memory for textures. In the end, most games still break down 256-256. And that's even if they have about t...
“We don’t want games to be more like films” "We" does not include myself...
I agree with post number 1. Heavenly Sword was sweeeeeet
C'mon, what do you have to say about the people who posted and approved the original story then???
Remember, this was about the story of ONE guy, who would have somehow got the game before release. No name, but claiming it was not good. His story got reported on a BLOG. And sure enough, a whole bunch of guys jumped on this blog story, and approved it as a worthy news??? Those are the guys who are ruining News 4 Gamers. After all, this site was never called: Rumours 4 Gamer...
Could it be simply a beta version?
C'mon guys. Game has not been released yet!
The original news start with: "Thanks to a tip from a fellow reader,"
So until the game is released, all you can do is debate about a comment from a "fellow reader" which became a comment on a blog.
How reliable is that?
Just wait and judge by yourself : ) Don't trust comment from "fellow reader" who would have somehow got the game before release! Even if ...
The 360 was cracked after only one or two millions sold. So if it's easy to do, it will be done. It's was never a question of how many are sold. Microsoft being a software company, guess how easy it was to cracked their hardware product...
On the other side, Sony is at their third attempt, so sure enough, eventually the PS3 will be cracked as well, but you can only assume they are getting better at protecting their product by now...
Your PS3 or standalone player will not explode tomorrow if it's not 1.1
I would even be ready to bet that we won't see an update for the PS3 for a while, maybe even until the "famous" 2.0 update?
This is an addictive game. It's likely quite decent for any cards player, but it will also bring a load of newcomers. Most people who tried to jump into card games with somebody who was experience could not believe all the little quirks in the rules. But with the Eye watching the game from above, and keeping track of everything, the game suddenly shine, even for people who never played such games.
Even if you stack your deck with 30 photocopies of Ultra Rare cards, you will get killed by someone with the most simple deck.
The more powerful the card is, the more mana you need to play it. You get only 2 mana per turn. So if you have one that need 8 mana to play, you can only play it after 4 turns, if you don't do anything else. During those 4 turns, your opponent will already have 4 squares occupied (with lowlife 1 or 2 mana cards) . Remember, you win if you get 5 squares...
Please tell me, after reading this "truly" informative news, which version you will pick.
Personally, before I spend money on a game, I'll read all the reviews about it. If it's a game that is released on multiple platform, I will read many reviews for each platform before I decide to go one way or another...
Seriously, you would buy a game based on this article??? This is not a review, this is simply a comment from a guy who didn't even tried the game...
