I to believe Nintendo is purposely tanking Wii production to create a shortage. It has been in demand for the last year and while it may be understandable at launch, there is no reason not to get your production increased to meet demand.
I'm not saying this is a bad thing... in fact it is quite a marketing phenomenon. And if history teaches us anything, the should make sure the shortage lasts because once they are plentiful, interest fades.
I bought a gamecube last Christmas so my daughter could have a more family friendly console to play. I also bought all of the top rated games and the only game that held my interest was Resident Evil 4. Everything else I got bored with in just a couple of hours. I have no ill will towards the Wii, I just don't know what the attraction is. So I wonder if the Wii is enjoyed that much or if it is just the next "it" thing.
At this point, Nintendo has to be purposely keeping thei...
Black Friday is the biggest shopping day in the USA. The day after Thanksgiving is the busiest shopping day of the year and many stores offer great deals on merchandise. In fact many stores do not make a profit for the year until Black Friday. That is where the name comes from. The stores are finally "in the black" for the year.
Now all I need is a PS3. I have a store coupon for 30% off gen. merchandise but it is only good for Sat. If I get a 60gb or 80gb that will be a savings of $150 U.S., $120 for a 40gb. I hope I can find one.
I am 40 years old and what the hell am I doing on this board?
If you take the time to read the interview, you will see that they are not saying that N.D. would have made those exact same games... They said they had similar ideas when they were brainstorming for their first PS3 title. They had no itention of abandoning the third person p.o.v. because that is one of their strong points.
As far as quality comparisons, N.D is an AAA developer so what's with all the grief? I am glad they decided on Uncharted but what ever game they decided on would ha...
Thanks, Donger.
I was going to wait till around Christmas to pick one up, but this might be to good of a deal to pass up.
Where can I get the coupon?
The difference sounds minimal at best.
Shut up and Game on.
They went with a woman as the main character. I love the Final Fantasy series but those gender confused leading men really creep me out.
like Virtua Fighter V.
I swear everyone on this site is just a fish waiting for the next flamewar worm to be dangled in front of them.
Oh yeah, who the hell keeps posting R&C reviews. OK, I get it, It's a great game. I wish I had it.
Why does it always have to come to a flame war over some silly screen shots. If this game turns out to be a AAA title, and you buy it and enjoy it very much, does it make it a better experince for you knowing it has slightly lesser graphics on the "other" system?
Currently, I have neither PS3 nor 360. I will have a PS3 by Christmas. I will only have one console and I like the Playstation brand and I like the direction they are taking gaming. I do regret I will not be able to...
must be a master developer with a great knowledge of computers and the many various programs needed for programming... except spell check.
comity? try committee.
Hey, I was at the last Lions-Bears game. Sure was nice seeing my Lions set a scoring record against da Bears. Man we sure had alot of fun with all of the Bears fans that showed up at Ford Field and were talking smack.
As far as the Packers are concerned... I agree w/you 100%.
Good luck on Sunday
Go Lions!!!
I didn't pick up any "sony" vibes from this story. It was just a simple statement that he doesn't think the arcade is a very good deal.
Oh yeah, he also didn't mention the arcade doesn't have backwards compatability either.
I personally think that the arcade is a great entry level package. There is nothing wrong with having options and that goes for all consoles.
is to complain with your wallet. In other words, don't buy it.
The great thing about having two competetive consoles is they are always trying to one-up each other. Let the first party games and third party exclusives set the standard and screw multiplatform for a while.
Look at what Gears, Halo, Bioshock did for the 360.(sorry, not an xbox fan, thats all I could think of atm.)
PS3 has some major hitters coming out in the next 6 months R&C, Uncharted, LBP, MGS4. The...
I played and enjoyed Killzone. I am not a big fan of FPS's but I thought it was enjoyable and I can still get online and find at least 100 people ready to play a match.
Liberation is one of the highest rated games on the PSP and is a very solid title. I think Guerilla showed how much they have matured by using the isometric view over the first person, it works out much better for the PSP. Liberation's multiplayer is arguably the best on the PSP.
What Killzone 2 has shown us s...
to get this game. PSP's GOTY. Now if we could just get a solid date for Crisis Core, I would be a happy camper.
console for one game. That is why I think this game will move consoles. I have read many posts by people who will buy a PS3 for "their" game whether it is MGS4, KZ2, FFXIII, Home, etc. If this game gets a lot of positive press and some good marketing, I think the fence-sitters will say, "Well, I was going to buy it when game "x" came out... Plus the system has had two price drops... I'm going to get my tax returns soon...Oh what the hell, I'll just buy the PS3 now so ...
Xbox needs exclusives... PS3 needs exclusives, otherwise we will be forced into only having one console next gen.
Fanboys have a twisted mindset. They can't enjoy their console of choice unless the other console is failing, or broken, or just a toy for kids. If you feel you have made the right choice, why do you need the approval of a bunch of strangers?
