You bring up a very strong point!The government is finding ways of controling our behavior by using the "sin tax excuse" to makes us change our ways. Look at the cost of cigarettes,beer,wine,and a gallon of gas. Anything that they see as a concern of there idea of normal behavior will get taxed.If you do a search on here,Obama has already said that video games are a "health issue" and a addiction as bad as drugs or booze!
Obama could have chose any game consol...
AMEN! 10 great steps for parents with gaming kids to live by!
Well Toast,lets have a history lesson....In the 1950's it was rock'n'roll music ( watch the movie the Wild one or Rebel without a cause),in the 1960's it was the counter culture ( the Movies Easy Rider or Woodstock as a example )in the 1980's it was the disco era.In the 1990's it was "RAP" music. ALL of them were used by the presidents of the time as the excuse of wasted youth!
Today,video games are constantly used as the the downfall of todays youth. and in case your ...
When I was growing up in the 60's/70's they use to say the same thing about saturday morning cartoons. Has Obama ever stopped to think about what these kids would be out doing if they weren't at HOME playing video games?
I have to agree with some of the other responses that parents need to set rules for there kids and not use a video game console as a replacement for love and responsibility towards there kids and with all due respect to my fellow member in public education.If a kid doe...
RELIABLE should be the # 1 priority!!!
I was wondering hoe the PS3 verision was. Since I own both systems and love the battlefield series ,i'll have to grab a PSN points card and d/l it. Thanks for the information on the PS3 BF 1943!
I have to say that BF1943 is a pretty decent game,but oh those servers on XBL! I have heard that alot of people were having problems down loading the demo and the game.
The game does have some draw backs that should be looked into once they have there servers figured out. They need to let you adjust the amount of players to be in a private room. It's a pain in the backside to find 15 others that are not so disgusted in trying to join a ranked match that they went on to play somet...
Thank you for this post,I'm glad someone starts to bring this subject up. I get atleast one of these messages a week and delete them pronto.
You know with all the down time maitanence that microsoft does with XBL that they would get wise to these scams and figure out a way stop this garbage before these messages get out there.
Remember the old moto.if it sounds to good to be true,then its a scam! Nothing is ever FREE!
I don't know about the stores in your areas ,but my closest TRU ( in west central Florida) has very little in it and looks as if its ready to go the way of Circuit City! I have to agree with a earlier post that TRU prices are the highest around! I watch the sunday sale ad's and KNOW what to look for and you WILL save $$ on games.
To me CoD/MW is still the best modern military FPS there is. If you get together with the right group of people for a clan and work together it is a incredibly FUN game.
The ps3 version game control plays a bit faster than the 360's ,but the XBL/360 servers are much more reliable.Both them look great and can't seem find any faults in the game other than that.
Heres to MW2! I will be awaiting eagerly to play the next step in this series. CoD/W@W just didn't cut it fo...
Mezzo,I thank you for your original post.Don't get me wrong.We can never get enough information on what should be the biggest selling game ever. When you find out more information on the CE,PLEASE update the web sites. At least they changed there minds on the idea of the "pay to play" rumors.
WOW! I glad that got cleared up! But what still makes wonder is the "Adverted for now" part. I still think the pay to play will be in the future releases. I beleave the next step in the future on online military sims will be MMO like MAG for the PS3. and for those servers to hold up to 256 plus players they will have to be dedicated and pricey!
Well I think I know one of the things that will be in the "collectors edition" ...How about a 1 year access to there ( Activisions ) Pay to play online service! Oh and maybe a early in the game weapon or 2...oh and a "making of" dvd! OH BOY!!!What a waste of a CDrom!
You ALL need to look at the post on N4G called "Modern Warfare 2 to have online subscription service". If this turns out to be fact,they can take MW2 and shove it where the sun doesn't...
Sorry Gump,BUT If it walks like a duck and posts messages like a duck...Its a DUCK! Agian, SORRY but I couldn't pass that up....
Anyway for the matter in question.This original post is a day late and a dollar short.The info thats in it is old news.Anyone that logs into EB/GS's web site can see the same information. I wish that the author would have dug a bit deeper for a little more detail for his post.
I guess the only way will know whats in this "collectors ed...
I doubt it will make a difference.Although I do give the fans of LFD credit for sticking up for what they feel should be Down loadable content. The point is that they had over 30000 fans of the game sign up for the LFD2 boycott and to me thats making a statement!
POWER to the GAMERS! Right ON! ( pump your fist in the air )
I remember when sony tried this same concept with the eye toy for the ps2 and it fell flat on it's face. Other than Sony,NO other developer took advantage of it. The proof if this technology will work on the current systems will be in the software and apps for it.If they can pull it off,then I will consider it the next step to the future of gaming!
I love these comments! As a owner of both a 360 and ps3, the xbox has the best online setup and even a little improvement is welcome. There was a post on N4G yesterday about "things to do while XBL is down" that maybe some people should have read. I for one took a break from XBL gaming and caught up on my latest game magazines.
As for the "fall update",I could care less about Facebook,twitter, or Zune! Thats why I have a PC if I care to get social or download ...
I have been a subscriber to EGM since the early 80's and will miss it dearly. I feel for all the people that have worked for it over the years.Now they will be joining the ranks of the unemployed auto workers!
Good luck to all of them and that there future in video games will still be around ....somewhere.
As a huge fan of fishing games,this one looks to be the best one yet! Reel Fishing for the Amiga has always been the one to judge all others by and with the current console fishing sims out there this one should be on any fishing fans list.
Two things that do come to mind ,1 the controler is wired and I can't seem to find a release date anywhere.Soon as it shows up on Game Stops web site ,I will pre-order it. Thanks for the excellent interview!
I think its pretty cool.As a avid off road motorcycle fan I'm always in awe when I would watch the Trials riders while at the Croom off road park here in west central Florida.
For those wondering what Trials is ,the best way I can describe it as Ballet on a dirt bike.There not fast ,but they can climb and maneuver around tight stuff that a mountian goat wouldn't go near. It takes a huge amount of skill,balance,and confidance to be good at it.
This game should appeal to ...
