Hardly worth reporting here, considering anyone it may affect, should already have the "memo".

This one paragraph sums up why this is not really "news":

"Microsoft's reasoning for this, essentially, is that between MIX, TechEd Orlando and Barcelona, and (I suspect) its Business Intelligence Conference held two weeks ago -- and a slew of recent and soon-to-come alpha and beta releases -- developers have enough to chew on for a while," An...

...considering NOTHING has been shown from the game, thus far. It's possible it could see a Japan-only release late this year, and next spring/summer for US/Europe. Major franchises usually get a ton of hype/promotion, with screens, interviews, trailers, etc. leading up to the release; there's hardly time to squeeze all of that in this late, and still have a shot at making a meaningful launch this year.

That's NG: Black...which had enhanced visuals over the original. :o

...and yet you managed to make yourself look EVEN MORE ignorant, by explaining yourself further.

Let me put this into layman's terms for you: The PS2 was the clear-cut LCD(Lowest Common Denominator.....weakest) platform of last-gen; in multiplatform games, the XBOX...and even GC....looked considerably better. AGAIN, that's a testament to the superior hardware of the XBOX...as well as a damning testimony to the disappointment of the "Emotion Engine". That games lik...

1.) This has NOTHING to with the 360, so your comment is incredibly off topic to begin with.

2.) The fact that there's little difference between XBOX NG, and PS3 NG, is a testament to the XBOX...certainly NOT a negative for the 360. ???? If anything, it shows just how much the PS3 struggles to "impress".

Your logic (or lack thereof) is so flawed, I really don't know why I bothered to try and correct you. :o

...is what brightness/contrast settings/options are for. ????

But yes, the game is/will be in a rather dark, dingy setting. After all, this all takes place at THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN. If you want bright and cheerful, play Kameo or Viva Pinata. :o

Don't worry, the PS3 is "futureproof"....as long as you don't plan on living past 2010. ;)

...and the "big picture". They don't have to "catch up" to Apple. MP3 players are a disposable commodity, much like cell phones. MS knows consumers in this market, will own 3-5 different mp3 players (minimum) in their lifetime, and are planning on sneaking into the market via newcomers, and those shopping for their "next". As an entry level product, that was no more than a re-skinned Toshiba, a $250 million start isn't bad for "the new guy". ;)

Anyway....YAY, pour more gas on the fire, and break out the marshmallows!! :D

I guess calling someone a "retard" isn't a personal attack, as long as it's true. :p

1999....LOOOOONG before Sony ever THOUGHT about it (even before the PS2 was released)...and yet they tried to act like it was "innovative". LOL...very pathetic. :o

It's an official website, like IGN, that focuses on the MS platforms. Would you expect them to review GT:HD? Do you consider all reviews from Playstation-oriented sites to be bogus as well??

Grow up, moron. :o

Typical Sony fanboy bullsh1t.

1.) How can a "series" have "always sucked"....when there's only been ONE OTHER GAME??? Jackass. :o

2.) Perhaps you meant to put GT in it's place, and got confused. From the original GT on the PS1, Polyphony Digital has done NOTHING to improve "the series", except for better graphics....which comes naturally, with improved hardware. GT has ALWAYS sucked...and always will.

Wow....you're really going out on a limb there, pal. :o

...did this bullst1t get approved???

Here's the lame-ass, misleading title:
"Quality of Current Console Games - PS3 Leads"

Here's the FACTS:

PS3:
14/44 games rated over 80%

X360:
52/188 games rated over 80%

I'm sorry, but comparing 14 games to 52....and then saying the lower # WINS, is COMPLETELY asinine. The %age game is just smoke & mirrors...reminds me of Sony's baseline strategy ; the RE...

Q: Finally, a message for the fans eagerly awaiting Forza Motorsport 2 please!

TT: I think it really goes beyond what you expect from a game. I think it’s probably the FIRST racing game that a real life race driver like myself can actually win at ;) Only race drivers ever get the chance to drive a race car. THIS GAME IS THE ONLY ONE that can give you a glimpse of the real world of the circuit as seen from the c0ckpit of a race car. I really want you to play this, so you can rea...

GT WISHES it were equal to Forza 2. All PD has done with the GT series since the PS1 original, is improve the graphics, and fine-tune the handling. The difference from Forza 1 and 2, by comparison, is truly remarkable.
