I am not a big fan of racing games but alot of people are obsessed w/GT. If people are willing to pay, someone is willing to sell. I agree with your complaint about Polyphony but who can blame them if so many people are willing to give their money away. I would not pay for a FFXIII demo even though FF is my favorite series. But Square/Enix knows that a lot of people will pay, and their right.
and it's a long time til November. This will probably go on well into '09.
You should have quit while you were ahead.
"1. Japan = 75% PS3 version, 25% 360"
So what you're saying is that some Japanese are going to wait at least 6 months, and spend more money, to import a game that won't have a Japanese language option. Yeah... that makes sense.
I read through the posts again and no one really called him a "crappy developer", people are simply pointing out that he is full of himself. As far as I am concerned, I've never played one of his games so I don't know if he is talented or not. I have seen/read a handful of interviews with him and the term "douchebag" seems quite fitting. I have heard that Mickey Rourke is quit a prick also, damn fine actor in my opinion, but still a prick.
Your absolutely correct. No one should criticize him unless they have developed a game. Of course, by using that logic, that means that no one should criticize a console unless they have developed, produced and marketed a console of their own.
but it won't play in my fat PS2. It's a blue coated disk. I have a 40gb PS3 so no luck there. I plan on buying a new PS2 before they go the way of the dodo.
with all of your points Bathyj, except I have no interest in Skype. But if Sony could bring Skype to the PS3 with minimal effort, why not?
Off topic: Your avatar seems very familiar to me... is that Pyle (Vincent D'Onofrio) from Full Metal Jacket? That movie is one of my "top 10".
Free speech does not mean you can say anything, anywhere. XBL is a private entity owned by the MS corporation. They have the right to restrict you from access. Lets say your friend came over to your house and brought another person with him. This person starts calling your mother/sister/girlfriend/wife a dumb c*nt. Do you not ask him to leave(at the very least)? When you were in school could you just swear in class? "Mr. Math teacher, I don't understand this algebra sh!t".
Fr...
'cause I will be to busy playing KZ2. LBP & KZ2 are no questions asked, drop my $60, Midnight launch, vacation day titles. I will read some of the reviews when my hands are too cramped up to hold on to my dualshock 3. I held off on Heavenly Sword because of the reviews and I thought it was a genuine AAA title.
I haven't read any previews about how great the control schemes were for Halo, MGS4, Gears, COD4, or any other highly anticipated game. Of course you knew that the first Killzone had a customizable control scheme so that must not be an option in the second?
you got it all wrong. Gamesradar gave KZ2 singleplayer a 6 at E3 and now they give multiplayer a 5. So that must mean KZ2 is an 11/10. :P
I make conveyor belts... Yes it is as exciting as it sounds.
I never leave an excuse when I call in. I just say I won't be in today.
I am rather fortunate though because I have 4 weeks of vacation and 1 week of sick time per year, so my gaming needs are pretty much covered.
Quid pro quo.

@ofx360... nice avatar.
On topic...Maybe your uploads will be locked to a certain region but users will be able to "surf" the different regions.
not used to that German beer.
New KZ2 multiplayer trailer, Heavy Rain, Eyepet, all got a big "woah" from me and everyone I showed it to... even the non-gamers(except KZ2, cause they didn't understand what they were looking at). I'm on the fence about Home... don't know if I will use it much. I have more games than I can afford to look forward to. *runs off to buy lottery tickets*
I was a little disappointed with August Quore, the games previewed just don't interest me. Good thing the R2 beta more than makes up for it.
I played the hell out of the original Motorstorm demo until I finally broke down and bought it.
Too bad MS won't show up because they can't even compete with announcements you've listed.
Have you played them both?
I hate you ;)
