You can log into the network, you just can't get into the store, at least thats what happened to me earlier.
He's right though, sadly the GOW games weren't well publicised in the UK. I have a lot of friends who would consider them selves gamers, but I was the only one who had ever played a GOW game until now. Since I discovered Kratos I have been spreading the word and now everyone loves the big man.
Heavenly Sword is a great game. Overhyped? maybe. Bad? NO.
I don't think the games were very well publicised here in the UK as I had never heard of them before COO, but before playing that I went out and bought the first 2 games and it blew my mind, I could not believe I hadn't played the games before. I whole heartidly agree with Kratos being number 1 on the list, and to anyone in the UK who hasn't played these games, do yourself a favour and play them now, or wait for the re mastered collection.
And back to the list, WTF no Hale? No ...
I won one of them from a carton of Ribena :-)
@above
hmmm... never noticed the trees before, they do look a bit underwhelming.
But really, who cares when the rest of it looks so damn good!
That Lambo is a beautiful thing, I wish March was here already.
@Jolly - Go away you tool, nothing in the article says anything about Forza and no comments up to yours had mentioned Forza. Proof, if any were needed, that you are the ultimate fanboy.
Not if you need to order Pizza it's not!
LOL
Tell me about it. I've started saving for March already!
Too.....many....games....(hea d pops)
I loved, and still love and play to this very day, the first Bad Company. This looks even better, I can't wait. Q1 2010 is gonna be nuts!
Yes of course, it's got great titties!
/joke LOL
Seriously though, those titties were great :D
Sony have to realise that it's too expensive!
I still have my PSP1000 and when I first saw the PSPgo I thought it looked great. I would love to get one but I aint paying that much for it. In the UK it is only £20 cheaper than the PS3!!
Don't get me wrong, I aint knocking the PSPgo, I actually really do want one, I just can't justify paying that much for it, even if it was £50 cheaper I'd be in.
Also you tend find that like my self, a lot of PS3 gamers are also PC gamers.
It's the only 2 platforms you need for gaming heaven ;-)
Behave yourself Strike.
Look at the resolution the guy claims to have taken those screens at. Even a muppet knows they are purely pretty screen grabs. I don't imagine there are many PC's that could actually run the game at that resolution. Certainly not with anything like a playable frame rate. And anyway, Crysis is the ONLY game on any platform that looks better than any PS3 exclusive.
It does go up a couple of gears, therefore going through the revs.
But you are a bit right as he doesn't hold it at high revs.
It's just got a much deeper note though so it doesn't sound as high revving even though it might be.
EDIT: From what little German I can remember from school, one of the comments points out that the R8 in Forza is the V10 version while NFS is the V8. V10's do sound a bit deeper than V8's so this comparison is a bit of a fail.
NFS FTW
This is a bit stupid, they are both games with guns in them. Thats where the similarity ends.
Why don't they compare it to what Crysis would look like running on a PC that cost £250 ? And lets see what kinda frame rate they get too.
I'm bored of this now.
Am I the only one who was perfectly happy with GT the way it was? For the love of god, the game is not about crashing! I didn't care before that GT games had no damage and I wouldn't have cared if GT5 had no damage.
I just want to play the game, and drive so perfectly that I'll never see the bloody damage anyway! Is that too much to ask!?
If you ask me, that is a perfect example of a fanboy going all out to defend his beloved game. Very sad indeed, and I still don't agree with him. GT5p FTW.
@ dread
If you read most of the comments again you'll notice that there are a few who say that they loved the game but it was too short. That seems the general concensus.
Most people are just saying that the game was great, not perfect but great and certainly doesn't deserve to be on that last.
