As you said, Half-Life will sell itself... No need for mega budget advertisement like some other game. Sheeeesh, they could have bought another country with that kind of budget. Or maybe make a totally new game. I still don't understand why you have to spend so much in advertising when your selling version 3 of a game. If the first two version were great, keep the money and invest it somewhere else... Maybe buy an island somewhere and send the top 100 shooters there for a mega paintball t...

Latest PSN release is Go Sports Ski, which is $2.99 in U.S. AND Canada. Let's just hope it's a trend, not just a one shot deal : )

Katching....

Too many good games before Christmas... Must get a second job : )

The idea wasn't too bad. They could have made it shorter and it could have been funnier. But no matter what console you own, I guess Halo is something that we will always hear about. After all, sadly, the advertising budget alone, for this game, is way more than what it has costed to make many games. So sadly, we're not done hearing about this game in all the wrong sections of "NEWS 4 GAMERS"

I see PSN games mainly as games you play while you're waiting for a friend to show up online, or because you have to waste 10 minutes before going to bed and you want to unwind.

I never really liked ski game. But for $2.99? Stop posting reviews, or you'll make a big spender out of me!

I rented it, and had absolutely no problem flying all over the place and doing 180 on a dime within minutes of playing the game. (They start you slow, but still, I found everything so easy)

But it does seem like many people cannot. Since it does seem like it's hard for some people to get used to the sixaxis, and since demos are short, who knows, many people could not get it in such a short time and loose interest...

On the other side, they almost have nothing to...

I absolutely love the game. I rented it, and will eventually buy it since I could not finish it. I hate the dragon fighthing in the air. But dang do I like absolutely everything else!

Sadly, I hate Julian's comment... If I'm good with it, does that mean I'm bad with all the other games?

Seriously, this game is far from being perfect. It's not a 10 for sure. But it's awesome and definitively doesn't deserve the bad rating it got. Sure thing, I will be watching w...

Estimated total hardware and software revenues earned by the three platform holders over the quarter (ranked):
1. Nintendo: $634 million
2. Sony: $587 million
3. Microsoft: $511 million

So basically, they are pretty much making the same amount of money. (I'm assuming Microsoft is third because of all the money they had to set aside for warranty, otherwise, they would all be within a few millions of each other...

Sadly, the one making the most...

Yes, Sony is doooomed. There's a white PS3 coming out as we speak. Poor Sony. What a big mistake. A white PS3. Sales will go down for sure.

C'mon, if you want BC, you buy a more expensive PS3 and you have BC. End of story. If you don't want a white PS3, you buy a black PS3. End of story.

Even if they decide to eventually remove BC on all their production consoles, there's 6 millions of them with BC already in the field. Buy one from Ebay.

Yes, BC i...

fishamaphone's favorite game is :"Hide the Sausage"

Were you really expecting a very deep analysis??? I think his conclusion is definitively right "Will this generation keep on becoming more and more an opposite of the last? WHO KNOWS. It's a crazy, volatile world of video games nowadays. Anything can happen."

Nobody knows, not even him, there's too many years to go. Now, as other have said, this is vg chartz, bring on numbers, not guesses...

Here's the original story, straight from EA.COM It's a pdf. Sadly, by picking a Xbox web site, the attached comment has become: "Electronic Arts announced today its 2007 holiday line up, which includes several Xbox 360 titles." which put emphasis on the xbox alone.

The original comment should be from EA themselves: "The EA line-up brings fun and excitement to all major game systems including the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, PSP® (Play...

How many times will BC come back to hit the headlines again!

There's been 10 threads on BC alone. Why would someone change his mind about it? The problem is not about one user is saying the same thing twice, the problem is the fact that there's been 10 threads on BC in the last few days!!!!

If they come out with a white PS3, will we see 10 threads about the PS3 being white again??? NOOOOOOO, the PS3 is white!!!!!! God help us, Sony is doom, they made a white ...

Where's the NEWS???? This is from a XBOX web site... It's not signed. What kind of credit can you give to such an article...

The best: Item 3: 3. MS won't sit on it's hands and will even offer more deals.... What does that prove? If it was a signed article, from a Microsoft big wig, then this point could be good, but it's only a comment from NOBODY.

And yet, sadly, it's making the news on N4G again. If I want to read articles from NOBODY on a xbox web site,...

You have hit the nail right there: "Are you going to keep posting this same stupid message in every post related to the PS3 backwards compatibility..??"

Removing BC was a news... It should have been posted ONCE and only ONCE. Yet, even if it's a known fact that you can simply pick another version of the PS3 if BC is important to a gamer, it has to be posted over and over and over...

You are saying one user is bad for saying the same thing in two of the...

If you don't like Sony, you either like Microsoft, so you should be playing Halo3 or you like the Wii and you should be playing Metroid.

Hmmm, let me guess, you're getting your butttt kicked all over the place in one of those games, so the only fun you have left is to come in the Playstation section and bash the PS3? I hope one day, you get a life, or at least a decent game you can play for more than 20 minutes so you can leave PS3 fans alone...

You just have to be really take it with a grain of salt when you read an article posted by Bloodmask and his friends (sadly, he's not alone...).

Because most of his articles compare the PS3 to the 360, you also find gems like this next sentence, which was the next one after the paragraph he has choosen for the article.

"Their (as in Microsoft) NFL football title — like all the other sports they tried — was a half-formed, abortive and ultimately poor attempt...

And funnily enough, the guy is answering himself in his comments: "You’re handcuffed while this going on, as you can’t do anything else on the console"

Yes, after you download a game in the background, you have to manually install it. As discussed here, many bluray games also use the harddisk, and more, and more will do. I don't think anybody would be happy to play a game, and suddendly, start to lag b...
