I couldn't agree more. "Does the novelty wear off? Of course it does… but there’s a catch. After several days of gleeful exercise and endorphin-producing shenanigans, the thrill of controller free gaming subsides and forces players to judge each title on their own merits. However, unlike most ‘novelty’ items, Kinect doesn’t slide into disappointment and resentment; rather, the experience plateaus into a base level of imaginative fun that’s still an absolute blast for a couple of hour...
If you’re having issues such as when you jump you are out of the range of the sensor, you should try mounting the sensor higher. Doing so will also help with shorter people and areas in which you have less space. Agreed Kinect isn’t for everyone, clearly not for the writer of this article. On the same note Microsoft wasn’t trying to capture everyone, they knew it wouldn’t appeal to some people.
The system as many will say is great for the casual gamer, I had my 50yr old mom...
Doesn’t have core games is a bogus claim and only relative to the gamer buy the system. Example: If I only played dance games like Dance Central and wasn’t interested in anything else; the system has enough core games to opt me in. If I’m not then the system doesn’t have games that I want to play so it will be a system I over look a.k.a “doesn’t have games”. Since we are all different the claim of core games is different to each person.
To me the Wii doesn’t have a single ...
In the years i've been coming to this site. The one thing I can say is Sony fanboys will say yea for VGChartz when it reports numbers they like.
To the same note I don't see too many 360 fanboys doing the same thing but there are a few. I guess its not so obvious on this site because there are more pro Sony people on this site.
My point is get over it, its only an estimate. If the same article was about the move I doubt any of these same people wo...
Theey did say 90% done last year. They were suppose to come out and compete with Forza but that team has released 2 times since then and I bet they will release a 3rd one before GT5 comes out.
@shoddy at least come to the same conversation, with some common sense. What's being talked about is BLU RAY drive and standard features that should come with it. Its obvious PS3 is a great BLU-RAY player but on the flip side its several years old; with that being said new BLU-RAY players should come out that are better than the first generation players, which in no way means PS3 sucks. Quit being a rabid fanboy ; PS4 can only benefit from improvements made this generation to BLU-RAY.
One thing I did see is PS Move look like they just pushed Sony Game Studio's into hyper drive and just made anything. While some of the games look nice other aspects as in actual overall game play of some you had to worry about. The other thing is MS did announce more games will be out for Kinect launch, then they demoed (Other reason they were just killed by Sony and Nintendo this year distant 3rd for sure).
In the end I counted about 4 games from Move and 4 games fro...
I was dispointed after playing the beta. However it's not the only good 360 game that's any good. If you had a 360 game just for Halo I would say that's weird as Halo is by far not the best FPS maybe the most popular; because others have inovated well beyond what you see in Halo and with a better storyline.
Well on another note Starcraft 2 Beta doesn't dispoint Awesome game I've been playing non stop.
This is silly, it's like saying one model fits all things. PS3 kills your average Intel/AMD processors at float point or vector calculations. Intel/AMD processors kill the Cell at General Purpose processing. When you look at the majority of applications on MAC/Windows/Linux platforms running on PC they are General Purpose. Which means cell wouldn’t be running any circles around our current PC’s. In addition its running on the PS3 which compared to current PC is dated hardware, SLI Video cards...
Another stupid pointless, Gee I wish I can get the time it took to read the article back. You can tell total fanboy who would like Sony to be the one and only console. Hate Microsoft all you want but it brings competition and with competition it causes Sony and Nintendo to do things better. Anyhow it would be stupid for Sony to buy them; they make one game for PS3 that wasn’t even a hit. However makes a great game for another platform so we should buy them. I guess with this line of thought ...
It wasn't the fault of the 360 the game was linear is 100% correct. The entire FF since I started playing them with V was linear with a somewhat open world at the end. In general this style of play was the standard with JRPG's and still has pretty much been that way. Funny thing is this was released in Japan first and they didn’t complain about the linear game, because it’s actually preferred. That's why you heard many Japanese developers saying we must innovate or do things we see being done...
Really can't see why Gears going to the PC is a bad thing for Microsoft. If anything its a Win, Win; Microsoft needs to do better at promoting its Windows Games for Windows7 before Apple sneaks in the PC Games market. What better way to do it?
Fanboys always trying to look for something thats a negitive against Microsoft...
That will give me a reason to drop the service and mod my 360.
Why the hate and the games not even here. If they do something dumb with it yes by all means call it out. However if they enhance GOW and makes a something cool i'm all for it.
I'm going to sit back and let them do there job which is to inovate and create a good game for me to play. As a customer I will tell them if I like it or not when I play the game.
First thought Flamebait...
Why didn't you pick up an extended warranty?
Seriously common sense isn't common.
1.) Thought everyone by now knew about the RROD and that it was most common in the older 360s; 360 has an over heating issue so it should be well vented, meaning don't block the back, don't place it on shelf where it doesn't have a lot of room to breath. If you don't like the high maintenance pick up a Wii, or PS3. Kind of stupid to keep hearing these new articles.
2.) Refurbished products generally break down over and over agai...
I’m a person that like the Halo Series Halo One I owned it but wasn’t so much into it. It wasn’t until Halo2 I really started to get into Halo and it was only the story mode I liked I could careless for the online part. When Halo 3 came along I really like the features they added for the game with the online stats and I like the maps a whole lot more made the multiplayer part fun for me. I debated about getting Halo 3 ODST for the price but after playing it, I feel it’s worth the price; the s...
As a software engineer myself I can tell you many of us are so much of perfectionist with our work that we are our own worse critic and are always finding ways to improve code we wrote or to make something better. This being said if we let this process go on forever we would never release anything, so it's good Sony is making wrap it up and ship it.
I guess at a growth of 112% month after month, would put PS3 as the best selling console in history. Some how the DS seems to sell more, I wonder how that can happen?
