I got ODST for ~$30, and was really pleased (thanks to Amazon for great gaming deals)!

Basically ODST was a new take on Halo campaign. Both the atmosphere, and the sense of difficulty was really well executed.

But on the other hand we seem to be the minority...

I could neither properly sleep, or work until I finished of the collectors in Mass Effect 2. That game's story was really intense.

From the article: "Killzone 3 is a great example of the tremendous depth of the PS3 portfolio,"

How can they manage to twist words is amazing :)

Digital Foundry is not a one-off analysis site. They do research everything they can get their hands on, from betas to full releases.

And even they admit the analysis would be inclusive at this point, but done out of curiosity:

"We couldn't resist running the three minutes of in-game Reach video through our analysis tools, and this is what we discovered."

"We'll find out for sure shortly when we get hands-on. "

but if you insist on an answer...

probably the knife goes though the helmet junctions and severs the arteries.

or anything else, as long as the game is good :)

Would you throw away your franchise only because your trilogy is complete? As long as they can make good games (not necessarily only shooters), it's fine with me.

For a comparison, we have concluded Kratos's story. Don't we want more God of War in the future? Or inFamous was self contained, but wouldn't you want to come back for more?

Yep, as long as they don't fall into yearly Call of Duty level of course.

This only shows the developers are lazy. Especially with DVD/HDD difference, it means they did not even utilize free SDK tools. (The Xbox SDK can automatically arrange DVD data for optimal loading).

On the other hand, this also means 360 version is not the one to buy...

I might be a little bit too enthusiastic, but look at these:

... grenades, and shooting at them, leaving behind piles of bloody bodies that sometimes burst apart or catch on fire. ... jumps into spinning helicopter blades to stop the aircraft; his severed arm is flung across the screen along with other bloody chunks ...

While I do like progress on Doom engines, this is an intermediate release:

From release notes of 1.9.0-beta6.9

Known issues

* Multiplayer games are not fully operational. The stable version 1.8.6 is recommended for multiplayer games at this time.
* Demo recording/playback is not functional. Demo support will return in a future release.

Maybe it would be better if we reported 1.9.0 final release instead.

Why did you bother to buy the second one if you felt the first one was unsatisfying. Let alone buy the third, after seeing first, second, and a demo!

At first I thought your post was sarcasm, now I believe you're just trolling...

Dante's Inferno
Saints Row 2
Conan
Tenchu: Ninja Assassin (fortunately only rented this one)
... and others

Although there were some I finished even though I did not enjoy. For example Force Unleashed is the top of that list (the controls were terrible, while the story was great).

If rumors turn out to be true, we'll have a nice competition between Gears 3 and Killzone 3 early next year.

Yes, bring it on!

But a damn good one! The first is downloading right now, unfortunately second does not work.

I usually get points at least 25% off, unfortunately it's not possible to do so for "dollar value" cards (you cannot sell $20 card for anything but $20, but it's possible to buy 1600MSP for $15).

Then if you're patient and wait for the usual 50% deals (they are weekly, but the game you want comes in turn once a year), it becomes much much cheaper to buy games on XBL.

(Of course PSN has similar deals, too. So while you do not get 63% off in total, you can st...

It's actually RPG with heavy shooter elements.

I've played both, and all two are very different from standard shooters. Yes the combat and leveling/upgrading is streamlined, however it's much more story driven, and the game becomes very tactical on Insane mode (you cannot play it as a shooter).

I'd get lots of disagrees, but I believe Capcom is only accused by fault.

The versus mode was a new game mode (as name suggests), requiring minimal amount of art assets, but mainly software code. It was several hundreds of KB, but for a reference Diablo 2 main game DLL is only 1MB (that's an entire game!).

Maybe what they should've done would be including an extra map, which would increase the size to 100MB+, then people would not complain.

Just plus your MP3 filled USB disc, or USB readable MP3 player, and you're ready to go.

Several sites investigated the leaked photos, and most of the things listed in CNet article are probably not coming.

WIFI - No chipset is seen on the motherboard

Quiter operation - probably coming, the cpu/gpu combo needs less power, also the dvd drive no longer obscures air flow

Power Brick - still there (but probably smaller)

Quality control - we wish

Cloud support - what is that?

User replicable hdd - already don...

The USB sticks will be registered to a single console. This also means they will be "encrypted" with the console's key.

I don't think it's possible to read console's encryption keys, without modding/jtagging it.

Or even read the article before commenting....

Anyways, they are allowing use of USB sticks (up to 16GB), instead of the memory cards. I think that answers your issue.
