The more likely Bethesda is the fix your platform's bugs first. I know it sucks on the review scores and console bragging rights, lol. But you take the loss and have the most to benefit.
When they hand over a big check, rest assured it's not just for the DLC. They have them write it in there that the PS3 version can't look better than the 360 one.
I switched between them on various spots, they're nearly identical - Except the PS3 version uses more advanced lighting (Zoom in on the sun and you'll see). So you're wrong, the PS3 version looks better. And these are just demos we don't know yet if the PS3 will use higher resolution textures with the blu ray release.
Also worth mentioning is the six-axis controls that add a nice benefit to the tight rope walking which wasn't present on 360.
Yea I'd have to agree, Awhile back one of the guys behind the game said he was proud they were using a 'PS2 sized' budget on a PS3 game. Sadly zipper opted to do their own thing which they've been working on for 4 or more years (Mag - the 256 player game. Who knows how that will turn out)
This game was just a filler for Socom fans, Otherwise there'd be no Socom game. It was made low-budget for PSN - It's budget priced. Will be a long time before we see another 'official Soc...
You mean they'll look at Bioshock and reconsider ever making an MS exclusive again. PS3 owners want day and date they don't want old games.
Wow Sega Is really stepping it up with the PS3 exclusives, after everyone thought they were becoming mediocre at making games. This and looking at the gorgeous Yakuza 3 video. Maybe they should ditch their multi-platform approach and go exclusive to PS3 on all titles.
Sounds cool, but really just how many people can actually stream an hd movie live, i sure know i can't.
9/10 is the worst score an xbox fan mag could possibly give their flagship game, so This doesn't look good for the game.
They market things by making you pay for a service then putting adds on top of it... 'helping' small devs. out by having them pay M$ to advertise on their front dashboard. Team up With Big M$ to screw customers over - what an opportunity.
It's hard to count how many xbox360 kiosks i've seen out of service cause of RROD
When they signed the contract for DLC exclusive to MS, it was in there that they had to give the 360 a noticeable graphical edge over the ps3 version or at least not make the ps3 version better - I know it sounds far fetched, but this is a very real possibility. Bethesda simply put less time into optimizing the PS3 version, and it shows. This is the dirty business MS does now days. You can bet Tomb Raider will be the same way.
Are you kidding me?? Socom 1 and 2 were some of the best games that came out last gen. PS2 fans didn't know any better; no you're wrong on that one. Socom plays a lot different than CoD4 (unless you only play respawn), It's like apples and oranges - it's hard to say one's better than the other. I have both games. I prefer Socom and I'm not alone.
U know PS3 fans got a pretty killer counter-arguement everytime a 360 fanboy spouts out 360 is better 'metacitic, blah blah metacritic'xbox has more metacritic AAA's blah blah blah.
METACRITIC is A JOKE.
Owned by CNET, it's just as shady as GameSpot, and now we have proof.
Personally i just go to IGN now days.
heh, you can't do that, throw a game down just cause a game wasn't running up to speed the first couple days and call it a review. Think about the purpose of a review, to give people insight as to whether they should purchase a game or not. He says forget it cause it had major issues the first couple of days, well people will be reading his review after the day of this article and the problems have been fixed for the most part already (I've been playing it all weekend and having a blast), ...
Microsoft bought midway maybe? or maybe they bought exclusive rights to that MK vs DC game no one cares about?
It is very conspicuous that we have no real official details of what the DLC will be 6 months after the game came out... (It almost seems to me it was contractually held back) However if this is the case I think MS has underestimated the impact it will have on it's fanbase - and a made very poor long term business decision.
It's almost like the '50 mil' showing up in the rockstar earnings was planned (why not just lower the royalties from the game?) - to convince people to buy t...
or maybe the 50 mil was actually to make sure the PS3 version didn't outperform the 360 version?
The bad news is that now I can see these guys bumping up their fable 2 score, just cause they feel sorry for the 360, or to 'even things up'.
Lost Odyssey was good, but it was no final fantasy
funny thing is sell more doesn't equal make more money. In Europe they pay more for games, so there's a lot more profit to be made over there. You gotta sell well in europe to make more money, and PS3 is the leader in europe. EA and UBI's latest financial reports recently confirm this reality.
