...but then Epic SHOULD be able to master their own creation. ;)
I'd say the final build of Lost Planet will be on par with Assassin's Creed ; the demo they released back in the spring looks pretty amazing.
...this game will SUCK. :(
...my buddy Bill Green at Epic confirmed it already...as well as UT2007 for PC/360. ;)
...because MS is the publisher. This franchise will be the replacement for Halo, since Halo3 is the last for Bungie. Halo Wars will cater to a different crowd, and likely won't have the same appeal or sales as Halo has. MS will need a heavy-hitting exclusive franchise, to compete with MGS/Sony.
Sure, the PS2 has outsold the 360. But a very important factor in that, is the price differential. You have to look at who is still buying the PS2:
1.) People finally upgrading to the "slim" version
2.) People replacing a worn out unit
3.) Casual gamers or parents who've just now got kids old enough to game. If you look at the $129 price, and the huge library of games from the past 6 years, it's tough to pass up.
You also have to factor...
...but he's actually very careful about what he tells me. Epic is a pretty small company, so anything that gets "leaked" could be easily traced back to the guilty party. Bill's only been with them for a few years, buy he's making alot of $$, and has his second child coming in a few weeks; he can't afford to take that chance. He said he's expecting at least a $60k BONUS from his work on GOW. 0_0
But I will definitely try to keep people updated on anything I can get out of...
...or is Bhai the biggest moron this side of the Milky Way? :|
I'll say it again....F*CK YOU, BETHESDA! :{
...but they have to say it, nonetheless, because of the shortages. Bill Gates and Peter Moores said the same exact thing after the 360 launch. I didn't believe that then, and I sure as hell don't believe this now.
I'm betting Kaz and Ken ALREADY have theirs.
...it's already begun.
I have a friend who works for Epic...worked on the art/design team for Gears. We talked on Friday (he's sending me and autographed copy of Gears, with Cliffy B., Tim Sweeney....well basically EVERYONE on it. :D )
I asked him if he was taking a vacation now, and he said he was too busy helping finish UT2007 for the PS3 (and yes...it IS coming to PC/360). He also said that those who weren't pulled over to UT2007, have already begun brainstorming...
You can't be f***ing serious. The PS2 couldn't even run UE3. The textures and lighting in this game....even though it's under 60 mb...is superior to ANTHING that can done with the ancient PS2 hardware.
Most parents won't KNOW the PS3 can surf the web. They'll just know that they bought the PS2 for their kid, and now the PS3 is coming out. You can't blame a parent for not safeguarding against the unexpected.
...I recognized the Buck Rogers spoof, the second the time warp effect started and the music queued. It sucks to be 35. :(
Diablo 3 is in development. Starcraft:Ghost got delayed multiple times, then cancelled (PS2/XBOX). It's now in development for next-gen consoles exclusively.
Forget Giants:Citizen Kabuto....I want a sequel to Armed and Dangerous. :D
...what exactly are you trying to say, Bebedora? :|
...and ONE of the reasons MS decided not to include the browser on the 360.
I'd say this browser will be very restrictive, with little-to-no customization of settings available to the user. Can you imagine the backlash Sony would get, if parents started reporting that their 13 y.o. boys were caught looking at porn on their GAMING CONSOLE?! That's the real issue here. With over 200 million consoles sold worldwide with the first 2 PS consoles, Sony has to consider that they are by...
...and that's just Europe; factor in Asia/Japan/US, and this game is gonna be HUGE. 0_0
Windows Media Center is no longer necessary. MS has refined the networking capabilities between PC and 360 alot since launch, and the new update improved upon that.
Well, other than millions of SONY fanboys, in denial....hardly ANYONE. ;)
This should be a free download, for 360/PC.
