"Conflict: Denied Ops"

If the name is bad, the game is bad.

I hope a good developer gets their hands on the Tomb Raider series. Eidos just milks it.

The 360 won the grading contest, but just barely. It received the same grade as the Wii, but was chosen as the winner. The D- for 360 Hardware Design is not fair. Yes, there were significant problems with machines failing, but a D- is too harsh. Microsoft stepped up and fixes it for free, so the problem is only temporary for those that have an issue.

The C for 360 Innovation is also bogus. The triple-core CPU, 10MB of E-DRAM, and Unified Shaders are quite innovative. Lets not f...

It is August 2007, guys. We still have 5 months to go before Jan 1, 2008. Those PS3 titles aren't coming out for 12-17 months. Trust me, they may say "March", but those games will slip into the traditional holiday lineup. I also doubt that FFXIII will make it in 2008, since SquareEnix is always incredibly slow.

The battle we should be referring to is this year and the 360 will have a killer app in 2 days.

I find it odd that Insomniac and the HS developer both claim over 20GB of data. It was strange that "some of the audio is compressed and some is not" (paraphrase).

Isn't coding highly disciplined? Wouldn't all audio be treated the same?

I've seen a real game-play video, and it looked like an MMO. (I know it's an MMO) In other words, characters were not animated very well, there was lag, and the world looked barren and out of scale. The video link which Assassyn 360 provided is in real-time, but it isn't game-play.

The only release date given was Nov 2007. It was never "delayed". I think many journalists expected it to come out last year, but they were only guessing. When journalists guess, things get ugly.

Did I miss something? The article doesn't quote anyone and just assumes that it's being made due to the real-life Warthog. I'll wait for official info from Microsoft or Peter Jackson.

Deus Ex 2 was a great game. If it had the polish of Bioshock, it would have sold much better.

Itagaki has backed the Xbox and 360. He also said that NG2 is for 360. He never spoke of a PS3 version. But I don't think MS paid for exclusivity, so it could come to PS3 later.

5 days until I play Bioshock!

Why are there so many previews for a game coming out in 2008? Is it coming out earlier?

Those images are pretty telling, though. Less grass, less details, poor lighting, shorter draw distance, are all evident in the PS3 version.

A minor typo on box art is not news.

Of course it hurts the PS3! Any good game on 360 damages PS3 sales. It's another reason to avoid the PS3, or buying games for PS3 (if you own both consoles).

Anyways, I hope the delay is short. My guess is that it will slip longer than January since it is dated "Jan 1". There's no way any game will release on that day. So the date is just a place-holder until an official statement is released by Mistwalker.

I expect a major correction by NPD very soon. It will be funny to see the 360 sales spike and dominate the next 4 months. It's like Microsoft is teasing Nintendo.

The headline is false. 1 guy finds an exploit and suddenly the 360 version has more bugs than PS3.

Doom 3 was never an example of AI. In fact, it is the worst example. Halo or Half-Life 2 should have been the main focus for the article, since they have impressive AI.

This is a great device. No more keyboard on my lap.
