MGS 3 is set before MGS 1 and 2 and all the old NES games. So that would help.

Does graphics matter so much to me.
In a single player game Id say they matter about 40% as if the story is not there then I'll loose interest.
In a multiplayer game it doesn't matter at all. To my suprise the best game and by best I mean the most fun Ive had goes to Left 4 Dead and those graphics really aint the best out but its a well balanced "fun" game. If you get your kicks by paying £40 for a game to walk around doing nothing but look at the shadows on a well ...

The guy was right they dont know what each other are doing.
Think they have loads of different call centres around the world.
Here's my pain in the ass story I wrote a few months back on my gaming communities forum

Rang on the 25th Feb to buy a 2 year extended warranty before mine ran out in March.
This was a big task. First phone call was fun got through to someone who said they don't do an extended warranty to which I argued that they do about 10 mins of this ...

But it really does make me laugh when people think they know more than the guys that run these multi billion dollar companies. These guys earn millions a year, do you guys earn anywhere near that ?
These guys have spent years (probably more years than you've been alive) studying market shares etc, I wont even pretend that i understand all the info these guys are privy to because I don't but I can tell you one thing about this (unproven) 50mil they paid and thats that its given MS more p...

"You see, the differance between the two systems is that the ps3 actually has other exclusive games that aren't shooters."

Are you saying that the 360 only has FPS's for its exclusives.
Not flamming just wanted to know as the 36o is now known as the RPG console of this gen so far.

I must disagree I love this game and it saddens me with this whole "jump on the band wagon" style of reviewing thats around now a days.
Two Worlds major problem was its frame drop but I play SWG and thats has the same problem so thats not an issue. The co-op WAS crap could host a room with two people in it if the gods where in my favor that day but since the patch I can host a 6 man room no problem.
Two Worlds is an old school RPG and for that I love it.
This game ...

2Ws isn't a bad game at all a lot of the people jumped on the "I hate two worlds" band wagon.
It is very much an old school RPG and its biggest selling point for me is the fact the land changes the further you go south so it has a "world" feel to it and not a county feel if you get what I mean.
The frames can drop but since the patch Im able to host a 4 player room no problem on a 10Mb connection.
The DLC that came out for it is also great as it adds sto...

Hope this is true.
Biggest thing Im looking forward to is the 16:10 aspect ratio update.
I play on my PC monitor (native 1440x900) and the writing is slightly blurred not to mention stretched so cant wait for that.
Plus (flame on) Two Worlds is one of my fav games so Id like to see if the HDD install helps the frame drops.

The Hana/ana chip have upscaled DVDs forever where does this crap come from.
Plus the disc drive isn't loud when playing DVDs

not a comedian ?
Hes more an actor now but his staple has been stand up and scetch shows.
I would say Blackadder launched him as a comdey actor, but i remember a bit of fry and laurie with great fondness

How many PS3 fans just brush off the DLC saying its pointless and crap lol ask most 360 owners and they can't wait.
I always end up coming back to a game again, sometimes 6 months after release. Started playing Mass Effect again so how can DLC be a bad thing.

Within the coming year windows live should start to spread its wings.
Yes this will probably mean that a lot of the "360 exclusive" games will come on PC too but thats good for 2 reasons.
1. MS will be dragging in even more cash from its games for windows meaning more money and developers focused on the 360 and PC as they are virtually identical to program for.
2 When we start to see more titles coming that are cross platform 3600/PC that work together I'll jump f...

As someone said AoC is an MMORPG.
It will also allow PC gamers and 360 to play together.

Didn't think about it like that.
You make a well thought out argument

With all this spin people could work for the UK government.
I was waiting for it to be blamed on MS and the Xbox.
Did anyone READ the article at all
"I just can’t see how a single Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 could have been expected to render two different parts of Liberty City at once even in a half-screen size. That’s what many game makers tell me, too, when this topic comes up."
Sorry but it really makes me laugh hearing these conspiracy theories.

Not adding fuel to the fire but didn't I read that MS holds the patent to "In game custom sound tracks" so if a company wants to have the feature in a game on another console they have to pay MS for that feature

I think we are starting to see Xbox is reaching its plateau where a lot of people have bought one so of course the numbers of sales will drop.
That said the PS3 needs to sell a lot more than they are to overtake the 360 selling an extra 50,000 a month will take them years to overtake the 360s install base and by that time Id say we'd be ready for a new system.
But nice to see the PS3 is starting to pick up speed if this carries on I might have to go buy one.

Ok if Ive got the casual gamer part wrong then sorry but you have to admit GTA has a strong following and the majority of people buying it will of looked it up on the net.
Most people wanting the game would of pre-ordered it and in anticipation of the game would of been looking it up on the net. Hence they would know about the DLC.
You missed the whole point i was trying to make really

do people think other people are.
The amount of times Ive read the comment. The average person doesn't know about DLC.
Last time I checked GTA is really a hardcore gamers title if you want casual go play viva pinata or rub your hands together at Little big planet.
Most people buying GTA will be over 15 and have access to the net.
Now if they have access to the net whats the chance they will not look up GTA and if they do they will know all about DLC.
Now a days i...

Id love to know why so many people are having problems with Vista.
It took me a week to get used to it and now Im loving it. It runs for me faster and smoother than any OS Ive used and Ive used all Windows OS from 95.
It might be handy if everyone bashing Vista could write down their specs
Vista Home premium OEM
AMD X2 AM2 6000 3.0Ghz (Dual Core)
2 Gb Ram 667Mhz PC5400
Seagate STATA 250 HDD
