Just got my old Asus MS 236H 22.3" monitor replaced free under warranty with VG278H 3D 27" Nvidia Nvision2 3D monitor. Loving it and now dont know if i should go back to pc gaming or go console route coming gen LOL.
@riderz..What they mean from "Microsoft and Xbox 360 continue to deliver the best and most compelling interactive entertainment today" is that 90% of Multiplats work and perform better than their rivals versions. You dont see 360 fanboys crying out and petitioning for fixing most multiplats. The recent BLOPS2 debacle is still fresh in our minds. So pls stick your trolling tongue else where.
"SONY WINS" Last place that is. remember the ad for sony ? 3rd Place, they themselves said in their ad back in 2007 or 2008.
But next gen will be different, the casuals who bought wii and then after few months put it in closet never to use it again will not be going for wii U. Next gen will be more MS and S head to head and N relegated to back of the bus as a red headed stepchild.
LOL what else will u buy? Been playing since it's been out, prestige 7 level 44..It gives me and millions of other pleasure..Not many millions will go and buy any other game for it's MP save for BF series.
XBOX came from 25million first gen to est 73+million... tripled their sales..
SONY went from 150mil to 71+mil losing more than half of its sales.
What win you're talking about??
@QSPR "ppl who by xboxis just to play pirate games."
Really and why do you think PS2 was selling millions of units in 3rd world countries?
Whatever excuse you can make XBOX rose from the dead and beat the Krap out of sony this gen. BTW no more excuses we have been hearing since 2006 on n4g by SDF..."Wait another year" "wait for GT5" "wait for price drop".. This gen is practically over sony showed all it's cards, MS...
Basically they are saying they'd rather consumers suffer and pay large amounts for extra RAM in consoles then, they the dev do more work to optimize the game within limited RAM. I think 4GB should suffice for next gen.
Creative people can create masterpieces even when they had 64K of Commodore 64. They made such classic/timeless games like cannon fodder, Paradroid, alleykat, ELITE, LCP and 100s more which had provided me as much fun back in 80s as the consoles of today. ...
"One of top complaints about current Gen, is load times"
Where did you hear that? Probably by PS3 users. I have had 360 since jan 2006. Never felt any slow loading which was annoying. The only one i can remember is Elevator rides in Mass Effect. Later on MS introduced full HD install and that eliminated whatever DVD noise issues people had.
BTW your recommendation of 8GB/TB drive will make the console cost 700$. Are you willing to pay that much? Do...
Only believe when they spout numbers for EU showing ps3 higher numbers right?
@allsystemgamer
LOL you're right. Been gaming on PCs since 1997. The days of dos games, the irq settings and editing booting script. I jumped from dos to win 3.1 and found amiga 500 by commodore had already done the whole wimp environment in 80s.
Been upgrading my pc since 97 with S3 virge, Voodoo Monster 1mb, Diamond voodoo monster II, witnessed the whole 3DFX and Nvidia graphic wars. Started assembling my own machines and for others as well...My last up...
@Gravelord
Agreed 100% +bubbs well said. Myself have a gaming pc but prefer relaxed, laying on couch and playing on 360 on 50" TV with a controller and not have to fiddle with drivers or settings.
For EA/Crytek to release Crysis 3 on current gen consoles is because of the ROI. They have already developed before on these consoles plus with 70 + million user base for each side why they want to release it on next gen when probably they will sell way less. ...
@Axecution
Agreed well said... For current gen i bought my first "HD" TV back in 2005. At that time it said HD not HD Ready if i'm not mistaken as it could play 720p/1080i only. DIdn't come with HDMI input since HD standard was still much in infancy but even though it was a SONY product. The jump from ps2 component input on it to xbox360 component input was like a light year jump for me as far a PQ goes. PDZ and PGR3's graphics blew me away.
@master
I did activate the code earlier and just today i started playing after 3 weeks and there was an update. Dont know if the update is what fixed the glitch. Did you get any update today?
EDIT: Ok just went to waypoint and came back to game and from in game menu it showed 0 so started d/l it. NOw went back to xbox live and it shows up 800 points lol. Anyway d/l it free now. THanks
Damn missed it, it shows as 800MS points.
LOL let's see them lie again for the super duper next console. I'll again skip Pstation next gen as i did this gen. All the best 3rd party titles were on 360 plus huge exclusive library, online, DLC etc.
Wow the graphics looks like on PS2. Must have been running it on a laptop.
I've yet to try SP of it, did play MP and wasn't impressed. what system you guys played on? Cuz on 360 it's not looking that good in MP. I'm usually MP first then SP guy. Right now can't leave BLOPS2 MP as im on 3rd prestige.
I hope MS will still cater to 360 after the next gen is released and dont throw it out like the original xbox. I still have 2 360 left.
Most of the time i played i would find 2 guys from both sides using tac insertion in some hidden corner and raking up killstreaks then let it go with VTOL, K9 and Swarm. First half one guy does then 2nd guy in 2nd half. If only stupid idiots remove the tac insertion it will stop these kiddies from boosting.
