I got the demo earlier this morning, and finally sat down and play.
Without a doubt this is graphically more impressive than Uncharted 2. The rain drops running off Scott Shelby's face, dripping on his nose, pattering off his coat is quite literally amazing. When you walk past a plastic trashcan you can hear the rain drops pattering on the cover. The raindrops drip on the dumpster and swirl on the metal is very convincing. The scratches in the wood, the whiteout graffiti, the labels on ...

Agreed... that is most certainly the Microsoft Way. Look no further than with this Live subscription and its non-existant dedicated server hosting. Who would've "thunk" people would pay for something they already have.
It's not a lighting contrast difference hoops. Look at this shot in broad daylight:

There are two stacks of pipes on the ground . The piping stack on the right shows the same detail of light between ps3 and 360 versions. 360 is only a shade darker.
On the otherhand, looking at the shadows cast by the left stack of pipes... the blac...
Can we leave the race card outside the door Mr. Gobot? Please, gaming has nothing to do with race. If we have to talk about skin color in here, let's talk about yours then. You can fill us in on all the flaccid details.
@below: How does the author being black have anything to do with the article's discussion? ONLY when the RACECARD is being waved. Sorry dude, if it's ticking off a # of people on here, the implication is there. I'm not black and I can still smell it from a ...
haha... i was thinking either the reviewer has some serious issues if he thought the setpieces in hell were, "mouthwatering"... or perhaps he just stopped playing at Lust... which is what the 2nd circle?
I predict Sony will win this console gen by at least, a slim margin.
And how conveniently the charity was set in place DURING the Netscape Anti-trust violation trials...
Personally i don't have any problem with Steve Jobs calling out on Google. The CEO of Google was friggin on Apple's Board of Directors while they were designing and developing the iPhone. How would any CEO feel if a supposed ally in your company goes behind your back and starts making a new phone and completely new OS? CEO Eric Schmidt actually had access to ALOT of private information on what Apple was doing. The two companies were allied against MS at the time. Google didn't announce th...
I'm going to pick this up as soon as i can free up some time from teaching my students on the finer points of handling a knife attack. Was SVER in beta... will probably stay SVER ;)
Feel free to add me if you think shiny uniforms are overrated. PSN: Nhoj
Sorry you had to bear the brunt on ignorance. I got disagrees for posting fact as well .. directly from the article. That's how inane some of these xbox fankids are. MS took cost cut 33% of their budget to make their numbers this quarter. Those are short term methods to boost dollar amounts.
@vegas75 You point one article showing sell-through from Nintendo and that becomes undeniable fact? How sad that Oner pulls 4+ articles citing otherwise. Where do you think I as the un...
I thought this title was garbage when I first played it on Beta. To be honest it isn't the most polished FPS out there. But that's where Zipper went wrong with the open beta release. The missions were so locked it had less stuff than COD: MW2. It felt like you were just thrown on a big map and you ran around and shot ppl. What Zipper didn't really show (until I just watched the game modes now on PSN), was how each objective map type played into the overall shadow war.
I'm...
Yes i'd surely pay $499 to use my tablet as a fan....
Nice choice of pic though... That peacock feather on the iPad is very eye catching.
I would consider getting one of these for casual everyday use. Wonder if it has writing to text capabilities...
If you read the article fully there's kind of a note about how MS's xbox division cut marketing budgets by $75 mill and saved $50 from layoffs... That's a good chunk of the "profit" pie. Money saved is money earned.
Addendum: The "real" growth is around $375-125= $250 , $250- 130 = $120 $120/$130 = 0.923 or about 92% up. Still nothing to scoff about, but certainly not that 188% painted in the article.
Microsoft spent about $75 million less marketing the console compared to a year ago, and research and development was down $50 million, or 10 percent, because of layoffs. - from article
So that's where a good chunk of the operating profit is coming from... We're talking close to if not 33%
maybe b/c with Bluetooth 2.0 EDR, wifi, 3G/4G... it doesn't need it? Most macs have both. There's also something called iSync. If you're talking about movie files... why not just wirelessly copy from ur comp to ur ipad? Isn't Wifi faster? Why go through a third medium... Photos? I dunno. That's a toss up when you could show pics/video on a camera and what you "really" want to show to your friends after iPhoto. Maybe that's another useless medium. Document files under 20 meg...
I was bit miffed reading some of the more puerile posts earlier, since it seemed everyone just took turns stating the obvious. But I've recanted my fouler assessments since. Truth be told I don't even own an iPhone. I don't need the features, but not only that, I want a very small phone strictly for calling so I don't have a bulky lump in my pocket. I don't want to watch movies on a phone (more for teen mindset) and drain my battery for calls that I do need.
Perhaps that mak...
Before you guys all get wrung up in your lederhosen, let's think about what everyone here is saying for second.
I still remember when the first iPod's were released... people were like, "Why would I want to commit to some proprietary music player that doesn't have any integrated memory slot and no radio or recording functions? I can download music for free online or from other stores. Why would I want to buy from an Apple iTunes store? The Rio Nomad is so much better, I'm ...
stop with the ignorant stealth trolling...
1st image comparison was between in-game (GOW3) and CGI
4th image rock demon in Dante's could've easily been compared to the Titan swatting Helios in Gow3.
One look and you know what molten lava should look like pouring out of the cracks in a rock monster's body. Molten lava glows And here's another hint if that wasn't sufficent, it ain't dante's by a mile.
If you even read PS3 news, you'd know the demo for HR would be coming to the general public in a week or so. Stop being a stealth fanboy. fanboy.
