CRank: 5Score: 13480

I went back to playing FF7 this week. I was very young when I played it years ago and never went through the game fully and properly so I downloaded it on PSN. The game looks horrid using a hdmi cable on a 32inch Sony Bravia 1080p tv. Though if you use the PS2 component cable, turn on upscaling and run the game at 576i widescreen, it looks just as it did on the PS1. The graphics can be a bit of a pain at first but you get used to them very quickly. The game is still as awesome as it was and n...

Just because a game gets a 10. Doesn't mean it actually is perfect. The score is rounded off. It could have gotten a 9.95. Anyway, people are too concerned with review scores. Every reviewer has a different opinion and also reviews games differently and each review site has many different reviewers. God of War III seems to be getting a lot of 9/10 scores so maybe that's an accurate score. If you think it deserves a 10, why do other people's opinions matter? Play the game first, then decide on...

I was wondering why most sites are not giving the 360 version a lower score because of the differences in graphics. For example, Gamespot gave the same score for both versions even when Kevin Vanord in the video review clearly pointed out that the PS3 version looked better. I then began to think how they come up with the score and it actually makes sense that both get the same score. Remember, scores are rounded off. So if you went to a lot of decimal places, the PS3 would have a higher score...

Oh its only a once off people so stop complaining. When PSN went down for a day, every body was moaning and groaning over it. These things happen. Technical difficulties will always occur and when they only affect a day or two, its not that much of a big deal. So far from my experience, both Xbox Live and PSN are great and I've never had any problems. However, I do feel that the only thing xbox live has over PSN, is cross-game chat. Thus imo, PSN wins overall but I use both and am satisfied. ...

9.2 is a great score. I know a lot of people think that he should have played the first two installments before reviewing but the fact is that its better to review a game for what it offers and for the the overall impression that it makes rather than add points for improvements over previous games. He may not know what those improvements are but they still have an impact on his overall evaluation because he has experienced them. For example, gameplay improves since GOW II and those improvemen...

I hope they improve the shooting to make it feel more realistic. In Fallout 3, it was hard to shoot without the cross-hair being enabled. VATs also made combat too easy but it was was too hard without it. I had to set challenges for myself in order to make the game challenging, such as winning such a fight without losing x amount of health. They need to change it so its easier to shoot without VATs and more challenging to shoot with VATs. If they achieve that balance, the gameplay will be a l...

Well its good to see one site acknowledge the differences. I'm definitely getting this game Tuesday and I'm definitely getting it on PS3.

The biggest problem with this final fantasy is that it is very linear at the beginning of the game. However, at least the gameplay gets complicated later in the game and their is a good element of strategy that is involved. In my opinion, Final Fantasy's best attribute is the strategic gameplay associated with it so even though this game may feel more like a western rpg than previous iterations, it still embodies the core jrpg strategic principles that have made us love previous FF games. For...

This game may not be up to the series' standards but it is still scoring over 8 on average. 80% isn't bad and the game does provide over 60 hours of gameplay just for the main story. Its a very enjoyable game, regardless of its faults and games are there to provide enjoyment. I'm disappointed that it isn't better but I'm still looking forward to it because I love rpgs and FF games. If it was getting a 6 or a 7 on average, then I would consider putting it off but that isn't the case. It is a g...

Sure Infinity Ward could have done more for gamers with MW2 but remember, they had Activision breathing down their throats the whole time. Whatever you say about them, they are talented developers and COD is sure as hell safer in their hands than Activision's. I refuse to buy Activision games any more and will continue to until they stop being money grabbing greedy worthless a$$holes. I hope IW win and Activision rots in the depths of hell for eternity.

Lol SE have screwed M$. Well you'd want to be a fool not to buy the PS3 version. Or should I say the real and proper version. This title proves the hardware capability differences in both consoles and proves that the PS3 is the console to own.

To sum up the article. Activision have cornered the COD franchise in a dark alley, pulled down their pants and begun raping it full throttle. They will continue to rape it until they have squeezed every last penny from it and the franchise has nothing but shame left to its name. Shame on you Activision you greedy brainless mongrels. I refuse to buy any game published by you in the future and your executives should get jail for the countless franchises they've raped over the years.

The only new thing I really see is jetpacks. Let's hope the multiplayer is more balanced and tactical than before. From the video though, I just can't help feeling that not a lot has changed.

Warhawk 2 is my guess but SF is also likely.

Another great reason to buy this game! Only on PS3 people. There are going to be a lot of sticky PS3 controllers after this :).

Well as bad as this is, at least it won't take Sony three years to fix it. It took M$ three years to fix the rrod with the new jasper units and unlike this situation, it required gamers to buy another console. In other words, there is nothing that compares to the unforgivable rrod issues but then again, its M$ we're talking about. Just look at how many problems Windows has. Its the reason I'm using Linux right now.

Valve are a very talented developer. Half Life 2 is arguably the best fps game ever made and I really like L4D. However, I can't understand why they haven't tried harder with the PS3 hardware. They should have mastered it a long time ago. From a business standpoint, Valve should be aiming at the PS3 market, especially because more and more people are buying PS3s now. You're not a gamer if you don't have a PS3 so Valve need to get their act together, get a hold of the cell architecture and bri...

The problem is this. Sites reviewed MW2 before they knew about the many multiplayer glitches in the game. So get MW2's review score and decrease it by at least 1 and your left with 8.5. Thus, Bad Company 2 > MW2.

Some things are cool about Natal though. My brother was at a presentation given by Peter Molyneux this week at Trinity College, Dublin. Natal was shown and it can detect drawings with perfection. People drew boats and other objects on pieces of paper and Natal picked them up perfectly. I do think it will be useful. As for lag issues, I think they will reduce any lag significantly by the time it is released. If they don't, then they may as well not release it at all. They are trying to compete...
