Kinda sucks they lost their lead level designer, Killzone2 had some awesome level designs. I hope KZ3 can match up to 2.
The guys that like to argue that Huge games can fit under 6.5gb.
Hey yea Mass Effect is my fave on the 360 too.
And my 360 has the same damn problem, it struggles to read disks. Some disks i have won't read on it.
Disk swapping works in some games, but is impractical on other games, particularly open world type games. Accommodations have to be made to make a game work with disk swapping so you're only doing it once - meaning no going back and forth between the content- which would be a nuisance in an open world game.
This little studio doesn't realize how risky making a natal game really is, they'll probably go under because of it too. It's not like 100% of the 360 audience will have natal, it will be like 20%-30%. That's a small group to sell your game to.
What happened to the old argument "but we don't need blu-ray, massive games fit on one disk..' it's not 2006 any more. I remember ME was one of the games supporting this argument. Hopefully this means the game won't have repetitive textures everywhere like the first game.
Does it ever occur to these guys that different games use different bandwidth for voice chat, some games have crap quality usually 3rd party, while games like socom confrontation and MAG have outstanding quality. I don't notice differences in bluetooth quality, probably cause i don't play COD or Bad company 2.
I've been on xbox live quite a bit, it's not like everyone there uses a mic either, some times you'd only get like half of the people using theirs. Socom has about a 90%...
Sony's actually mentioned working on pets for home for some time, they wouldn't be 'copying' MS. Although some of you might have some vested interest in wanting it to look that way.
They better not try to copy COD with a 'modern' installment, we have enough modern games right now. I want them to go back and make a game that follows the story line of HBO's 'the pacific.' WW2 can still be fun, WAW just kind really diluted it.
So I wonder how much Sony lost since these guys won't be buying software.
I thought they were rumored to be working on a next-gen Halo game...
I'm not happy it got bumped up to February 'if this is true' - The game needed some polish since we last saw it, I hope they've gotten rid of the rough edges. Big question mark on this one as far as the quality.
M$ has so much control over the media, no one is going to say anything bad about it, cnet and friends will call it the second coming of christ.
Amazon's got a deal till the end of Monday if you buy this, they give you $20 Amazon PSN store credit free. Think I'm going to do it.

making something 'realistic' doesn't make it a good thing always. Just because we see billboards plastered all over the city in real life, doesn't mean we have to swallow all that consumerist bull**** in our videogames too. You know we might be better off if we weren't conditioned into thinking buying things was the way to be happy or accepted. That's what marketing will do to ya.
That's even part of the humor in GTA, they used to make fun of marketing and how it's in all aspec...
Can you imagine if PS3 started getting Emulators.. oh man. Heck they could get away with it, as long as they didn't make the software themselves, it would be just like the emulators that are 'legal' on PC/linux ect.
The thing is Microsoft won't open their system up, because the last thing they want consoles doing is replacing the demand for windows. They don't want people getting into the mindset that a console can do everything your PC can. Where's IE on 360? This is exactly why it's not there.
Sony should definitely go this way. It's Microsoft's weakness. It's why MS is out to kill Sony.
I've never heard of a game switching from 720-1080p resolution in game, does this mean we're going to get a forced software 1080p upscale?? My 1080p tv definitely gets better sharpness when in 720p.. I looked at it and don't see where it confirms the fmvs will be in 1080p, I'm willing to bet that's not going to happen, they'll probably be in 720p - but 1080p sure would be nice.
If the US/EU PS3 version doesn't have lossless audio, We'll all know who to blame for it (micro$oft)....
Still beaten by Amazon's Killzone2/infamous ps3slim +10$ bundle.
Reviews haven't been great for this one, but I'll get it I loved the FF12 battle system. Apparently it took them a year to patch in voice chat into the online play, hopefully well get good lip syncing.. I think we could of done without to get the game much earlier. Well SE gets what they deserve for taking cash from M$, everyone in NA will be buying this game instead - no one wants a late port at full price.
