You buy a $600 console that doesn't have a respectable library of games (yet) and complain about paying $50 a year for LIVE? Irony. People spend more on cigarettes, fast food and other junk that gives them pleasure. Free is always great and all, but $50 for a year isn't asking too much. On the other hand, I do think the pricing on some things is a bit high, like TV episodes, XBLA games that are 20 years old ($5?) and a lot of the DLC content available for games (like the upcoming Worms DLC --...
Thank Christ the Energy Sword will have a limited battery. Such a noob weapon.
Halo brings out the worst in people. I already see players taking the beta all seriously. Just yesterday I was playing a Territories match on High Ground and the opposing team, as good as their teamwork was, would spawn camp like pros. Our team was totally incapable of capturing the first territory (and they had our sniper rifle). And on our last offense round, with no chance of winning, they did the same thing. I guess this kind of play boosts the egos of players like that. Some will call it...
Overall, I like the 360 controller, but it does have flaws. The D-pad is HORRIBLE for 2D fighting games and eventually wears out, and the bumper buttons feel cheap like the original American Sega Saturn trigger buttons. I've always liked the PlayStation controllers for the D-pad, but the analogs don't feel as comfortable as the Xbox/360 analogs when playing FPS games.
Have fun catching my 1969 Dodge Charger General Lee. :D
"I know, I'm shallow"
At least you admit it. :)
I love racing sims, and racing sims are about gameplay more than they are about graphics. I can personally do without better visuals. I loved Forza 1, so it's an upgrade in the visual department in my book. It seems that fans of Forza will get more than they're losing with FM2.
I played the DIRT demo today. Looks great. Arcadey, but fun nevertheless. A much better demo than what was given of...
GamePro and EGM sure have gone to crap.
11. Nobody gets sick of "the perfect woman."
10. What about Fable and tons of other games that use bloom effects?
9. Nobody gets sick of the super soldier hero.
8. As long as there's war games, there will be soldiers. Duh.
7. What moron complains about a console FPS using every button on the controller? :\ If it didn't, people WOULD complain. Nice examples, genius. And simple controls aren't always a...
I find it amusing how every opinion about something that is considered news worthy is a negative one. I don't care to read about some mongoloid nobody's ever heard of and his opinion about a game that he sucks at. Some people will like it and some people won't. That's the way it is on everything. How emo do you have to be to suck at a game and write in your blog about how it's "not all that"?
Try submitting real news.
"Wow could you even imagine what Halo multiplayer would be like if responsible parents took care of and watched their children."
Bliss, my friend. Bliss.
I can't count the times I've played with/against a teeny bopper or even a 5 year old with a potty mouth, or listening to a parent cuss while I hear his kid in the background. A lot of parents are simply dumb.
Then why compare if you're so sure?
"The collector's edition will not be sold in the US market but has been confirmed for Asia and Europe."
The official site confirms that. Sucks for us Americans, but I can live without 3 cars. I'm more into the American Muscle cars anyhow. And I pre-ordered from Gamestop, so I -should- be getting a code for the Fairlady Z. I can't wait to play this online. I'm sure C class is going to be rough with all the kiddies racing dirty without a care. But I suspect that in high...
Watch out for what exactly? Both 360 and PS3 owners will be enjoying games online, regardless of numbers. Everyone wins.
Yeah, the push to talk should be an option at best. I think Bungie did this so that you wouldn't have to listen to people's crap music and screaming, but what's the point if you'll easily be able to mute them?
Sony fans help fuel that fire. And yeah, Kojima is the authority on the matter, but the fact remains that plans can change. I personally don't care either way. I'm not getting a PS3 until the price drops, which looks to be a while.
Whether it comes to 360 or not, who really cares? Why do you Sony drones feel threatened by it? And to say that Kojima said this and that doesn't really mean anything. Developers say one thing and do another all the time. The industry changes constantly, and time is money. Believing what one man says makes you a sheep. You should be happy that Kojima is focusing on PS3 right now, not whining about it possibly coming to 360 and acting all sure of yourselves that it's not, because in actuality,...
He is a little young for the part, but if anyone has seen Deadwood, he's a great actor. Those pictures are obviously taken on set, so nobody can say he won't be emotionless in the film. I'm willing to give it a chance, but with the track record game to movie adaptions have, I'm not holding my breath.
Are you thinking of Daytona USA?
@OverratedV3: But you're acting like a jackass. You might as well be.
I'm so glad you took the time to let us know that. Thanks.
If only more people had respect for one another. Then we wouldn't be having these petty fanboy wars.
