The French invented the steering wheel. Does that mean we should all drive only Renaults and Peugeots?
Nintendo were the first to use thumb-operated analog. Sony ran with it and sold 100 million PS1
Nintendo invented motion control and gave us the same old Mario, Zelda and Karts. Sony has hardcore shooters (Socom, KZ2), LBP2, Sorcery, Heavy Rain, etc all lined up within the first few months. Dont be surprised if 5 years later, the Playstation rules motion con...
Well, even though its well behind the curve in terms of graphics, gameplay, AI, story-telling, Halo sells the most, so it must be the greatest, right?
The greatest racing game? Mario Kart
The most awesome car ever made? Toyota Corolla
The best food in the world? McDonald's
You have invested $300 in your console, maybe more on wifi or other accessories, hundreds of dollars on games, pre-ordered Reach and CoD – there is no way you are not going to renew your Live subscription. It makes a lot of sense for MS to wring you dry, they could raise it to $80 and still get away with it.
Thx for reminding me need to try that. some games lying around that i need to try : anachronox, u
ndying, nocturne, myth 1 and 2
Resistance is the closest thing to Halo on thePS3 and a fair indication of what Halo would score in reviews or sales without the Halo hype and the massive ad budgets
Killzone? Its not a rival to Halo, just like the Ferrari is not a rival for the Corolla. Unbelievable AI and graphics the Halo series can only dream of, a differentiated art style and gameplay that stands in complete contrast to the utterly generic game that Halo is. KZ2 was miles better than the average KZ1, sam...
I thought Halo 3 and halo ODST did that already?
For those complaining - its not multiplayer, its coop, thats perfect for the Ratchet gameplay and Insomniac are the masters of coop, Resistance 2 is still among the best coops around
"Now it has got out of control and I know I have an addiction but I cannot help it. I know I need help to kick the habit."
At least someone who knows he has a problem and will, hopefully, succeed in kicking his addiction. If you read the article, he has not been like this all his life, it started a year back with 2-3 hour sessions. 16-year old, most likely nobody to guide him, totally unable to get a job in this economy - its easy enough to slip into a make-believe ...
Its basically just like DLC. Any other game, I would call it a rip-off, but I would gladly pay up for MAG, its that good.
Nice trolling
KZ positives:
Better graphics
Better story (Helghan > pink and purple coloured dudes)
Far better AI (the most underrated feature in KZ)
Plays different to other shooters (Warzone, weight on guns) while Halo is the definition of generic
Negatives:
Sells less than Halo. But then, Ferrari sells less than the Corolla
Been a PC gamer and moved over to consoles – sure the resolutions are lower, but its about ease of use (just pop in, will always play smoothly) versus having to bother with DRM, net activation, figuring out why the damn thing doesn’t install on some particular card...
“Never mind what the game is doing in terms of lighting, scale, geometry or textures.”
The problem is even with lower resolution, 360 games cant match the PS3 in terms of lighting or textures. Splinter c...
Didnt you hear, the only games worth making are generic 10-million selling shooters like Halo or CoD. Demon’s Souls, infamous, MAG, Lost Odyssey – all games that failed to hit 2 million and should have never been made.
He should try MAG, it is possible to advance levels at a fast pace with barely any kills, have been #1 or #2 in the squad with he lowest number of kills.
And thats a genuine reflection of the nature of the game - if you revive teammates, hold down choke points and stick to the squad at key points to support teammates, you are probably the most valuable member of your team.
Excellent coop, much better than L4D
Excellent multiplayer, chaotic but fun, and because it was so crowded it was always an enjoyable challenge to get the drop on opponents by outflanking them. Not very tactical or cerebral, but that why you have MAG and KZ2
Decent single player, but ditched a lot of things in Resistance 1 that distinguished it from the competition and leaving out offline coop was a mistake
Thankfully Insomniac are back with...
This a game changer - if you have played MAG, 3 factions on the same map will be frigging awesome.
Someone just forgot to tell them there is an XBOX360 version as well, its not a PS3 exclusive
Maybe he should say best coop "On the 360" - though undoubtedly the 360 is much stronger than wii / PS3 in coop, missing out on Resistance 1/2 (better than L4D), LBP and Uncharted 2 is criminal.
Well, it isnt such a no-brainer is it? He must have played L4D, Halo 3/ODST, Forza 2 and was probably astounded that 360 games can actually look better than XBOX1 games
It probably is shovelware - fortunately we also have quality hardcore games such as KZ3, Motorstorm 3, Crysis 2, MAG, Heavy Rain, RE5, Dead Space 2, Socom 4, Sorcery and Virtua Tennis 4. The proper, hardore games launched in the first few months on the Move easily beats the library on the wii after 4-5 years.
I was quite keen on this game to begin with, but am more impressed with Sorcery now. And the two games I want to try the move with are Dead Space 2 and MAG.
