Ted Price for President!
Not really if you think about it. Who buys consoles in the first? Core gamers! Core gamers are expecting 'core' games. Resistance, Infamous, and Uncharted are evidence of this. Even the Wii had Metro Prime and Zelda. Sony first party made the strategic decision (Microsoft and Nintendo) as well to cater to core gamers upon release.
HOT TEA ...
Remember that its about options. I agree that streamed movies aren't for AV buffs like me but its still an option. This is why the 360 deal is good for Microsoft and Netflix. I wish I had this option for my PS3 but Microsoft scooped it up.
I prefer to watch DVD upconverted on my HDTV w/ the PS3 as well but having 10,000 movies available anytime for streaming is a GREAT option!
EDIT -> Silellak, I just ordered 6 Blu-ray movies fro...
I would love to see that!

"According to LG, the BD300 Network Blu-ray Player will be available in the Autumn (Stateside) and will, "play high definition Blu-ray discs, up-convert standard DVDs to 1080p and allow Netflix subscribers to instantly stream more than 12,000 choices of movies and TV episodes from Netflix to the TV for no additional charge."
So a Blu-ray player that can stream Netflix movies. No wonder Microsoft cut a deal with Netflix to have it ...
comes with being on the 360 ...
I guess reading the article wouldn't hurt ....
"It seems that Too Human has struck a chord with Xbox Live users and has passed the 900,000 demo download mark. According to Microsoft, the demo has "been downloaded more than any other action demo on Xbox LIVE Marketplace in its first week of availability and has been one of the top played titles on Xbox LIVE overall."
Good or Bad ... it will sell 1+ million copies on the 360
Agreed RealityCheck. Any game with content creation is up for scrutiny if they decide to make the game rated E for Everyone. Its difficult to police this stuff. Put up the disclaimers and be on with it.
I registered with the Steam forums so I can provide my own feedback for Orange Box PS3.

ok, slightly bias video. Sony fans relax. You have to LOL sometimes at this :)
+1 ... I'm in a good mood today after looking at the NCSoft games
I should have said its from the article ... I don't think I would have noticed it either if it wasn't for this article :)
lovely looking boxart!
"Those zombie-like aliens running through narrow deserted streets? The virus-addled mentalists from I Am Legend. Basically, the 'geniuses' at Insomniac - and we're going to qualify this, since it's not as mean as it sounds - have seen two of the biggest man-friendly, nerdcore, alt-sci-fi movies of the last year, and... copied them. Thank Jupiter Mamma Mia wasn't in cinemas at the time, eh? "
Interesting ... I guess this dude has never seen a Godzilla or King Kong movi...
Exactly ... this was the same argument for PS2 versus Dreamcast!
The ones below are interesting and some of these games are Sony exclusives! Good that Sony can laugh at themselves ;)
- In MotorStorm there's a set of races called 'Giant Enemy Crab'.
- On the end credits for PSN game Super Stardust HD, a message reads "may all your giant enemy crabs belong to your weak spot for massive damage".
- In Heavenly Sword, Kai interrogates an enemy commander for a password that she needs. When the commander dec...
I can't get my head around the cell either. Then again I'm not a PS3 qualified programmer. Oh wait a minute ... see what I did there ;)
a mans got to do ... what a mans got to do
I will admit. I like Gears of War (multiplayer aspect). As long as the game lives up to the hype that spews out of his mouth, all is well. If the game fails to deliver ... communities like N4G and GAF will have a field day with him. It WILL be much worse than the Too Human backlash of Dennis Dyack!
