I think MS should offer options with XBL:
Make Online free but remove gold features such as twitter and facebook etc. Essentially, allow those with Silver accounts to play online and just charge for the extra features if you want them. I have ZERO use for most of the stuff except online play.
Halo movie would be awesome if made by the director of District 9. He was MADE to direct a Halo film imo.
You can't expect all games to be that long. Mostly just RPGs and suck. FPS with a 20 hours single player would be too much imo.
ah, forget it about it.
8 years olds SHOULDN'T BE PLAYING THE FIRST PLACE. The game is rated M for a reason and if stupid parents can't protect their children it's no the developer's fault.
Too short? I'd say a games has to be at LEAST 7 hours (on medium difficulty)to be worth it.
If it's only around 60 bucks with a game bundled I'd probably get it just to try it out.
However I must still ask, all of you so hyped up about motion controls why not get a Wii? What's the big difference between Natal and the Wii? In fact, I'd say the wii is probably better suited for hardcore games than Natal. I suggest all of you praising Natal should check out the wii.
No, GOWIII, Heavy Rain, TLG, Agent, GT5, and MAG will own 2010.
MW1 sold like 4 million on PS3. it may not be as much as the 360 version, but it's still a heck of lot. MW2 will probably sell more (5-6 million). That is still great numbers. However, the numbers might be affected since PS3 owners also have many other exclusives to buy so yea.
holy F$ck! 7 million!!? Damn that's just mind blowing. I don't think it's that high. Maybe 5 million.
Difference is, PSN and Home are free. XBL is a paid for service and there's still. Either go with ads and make online free or take a fee and remove adds. You can't have it both ways MS.
EDIT: I Know it's not a huge deal but it really pisses me off.
I'm sure the game will be heavily pirated. I personally won't do it becuase I don't like piracy, but a LOT of potential customers on PC will be lost thanks to Activision's lame decisions.
PC gamers made COD what it is today. They have the right to complain when they get ripped off. It's the same thing Xbox 360 owners should do. Complain about lack of first party, complain about hardware failure, complain about overpriced accessories. Perhaps it won't do anything, but maybe it will. It won't hurt you, it can only help you.
Just make it out as best as you can. You'll get it through it. Once you're registered they'll sent an email with your pin, put the pin where it asks and you're set to go.
Why so defensive bzone?
Contrary to popular belief, MS has lost a LOT more exclusives than Sony ever did. It just blows my mind how many things are "Only on xbox 360" only to be released on PS3 a few months later. If that's the case they should put "Only on 360...for now" MS is full of lies, deception, and false advertising.
Wow, that would just sink MS even lower than I hold them at this moment (and they're really, really low).
I pay for XBL Gold and I STILL get a ton of ads. When I turn on the 360 instead of LOGICALLY going to the "MY XBOX" tab it goes to the "SPOTLIGHT" tab (a.k.a. the ADS tab). That is just too annoying even if the ads are game related. I'm paying and I don't want ads PERIOD
I've come to the conclusion that certain bots on this site are:
1. The same person
2. Extremely Delusional
3. Not Funny.
4. Horrible Trolls
Is it really too expensive to package with at LEAST the elite? Both the PS3 and even the Wii have em, why can't MS just put it in the 360? Along with a standard 20GB HDD for the arcade units. That would be a LOT better.
I think if it's based around the fall of reach, where there's a lot more action, it'd be better.
