Beyond frustrating? You must really, umm, how to word this...have a below average capacity for simple R1 spam, shall we say. Trying to be gentle here, but the game is easy even on Crushing. Really, there's no excuse. I'm sorry but it's true. The enemies don't exactly move a lot. It's fish in a barrel.
Hopper's fifteen 360 exclusives are actually made up of 5 multiplats. Two L4Ds, Fable3, Gears1 and Mass Effect1.
A-L-L available on PC. PC. PC.
Fundamental flaw in his paragraph 6 pitch that kinda reeks of desperation, or at least grasping at straws. I hate that $%&* this gen'. If I DON'T NEED a 360 to play a specific game, it's not...an...exclusive. If you have to include PC games as 360 exclusives in your argument, you've already l...
For a guy that's claimed to have a PS3, you sure know little to nothing about it. Plus goes down a lot? Uh, when exactly have discounts, early demos, cloud storage, free games, auto updates and betas gone down? Preeeeeeetty sure I didn't lose my 3 free Resident Evils or my Qore download this weekend, lol. Preeeeeeetty sure I got reimbursed with a couple extra months after the hack too.
@NoticeablyFat
You're implying you said something constructive? What exactly was constructive about it?
-logs onto PSN-
Hmm. PSN works. Fancy that. Congrats on another sensationalist sticky N4G.
Splinter Cell 1 is an XBox exclusive? Uh, it's also on PS2, PS3, GameCube and PC.
By the same token the facial-reaction bazaar scene of Marlowe toying with Drake over his parents and Sully, and Drake laying his head in Elena's lap as they share a moment over their failed relationship...wouldn't have had the same impact as a HalfLife crotch cam, expressionless Elder Scrolls, BioShock audio diary "interactive" immersion breaker.

QTE's are not dated mechanics anymore than Skyrim constantly reminding you you're pla...
I've loved good cutscenes in good games ever since Ninja Gaiden in '89/90 on the NES.
What I hate are BioShock's out of order, missable, often negligible audio diaries. Fragmented storytelling aside, Mr Levine, who in the hell walks around all day talking into a tapedeck and leaving 20 sec blurbs about sea slugs and NewYearsEve Parties all over town, lol?! Hey look, another Suchong secret in an ashtray! Did Einstein leave his theory of relativity fragmented on ta...
See? Right there you said it. "Little interest to me." You wrote off a 95 avg award winning 5 million seller in LBP for no reason other than you could. And that's supposed to be a convincing counter-argument? "Because Stone Cold said so" isn't a review. lol
MGS4 looks like cr@p? Nonexistant Kojima quotes? NeoGaf screengrabs show it coulda been better for a 2008 game? What, lol?
Uh, most of us have played the game y'know. Exhale.
You can technically still download games to as many consoles as you want, it's just that you can only have 2 systems activated simultaneously to download PSN games to. If you have 3 PS3's just take 10 sec to deactivate the one you don't want & activate the other. Yeah it's more inconvenient but it's still a workaround if you have multiple PS3s and another account at your friends house who you trade with or whatever. You can deactivate everything via the WWW once this h...
This whole debate is dumbtarded. To the logically challenged, you guys realise that XBL has an even -bigger- GamesOnDemand library than PSN but without the option of Plus discounts at all, right? Right? You gonna hijack the Wednesday XBL Update as well in the interest of fairness, or is this just a fanboy thing going on here?
Indeed. Someone else could just as easily pick risky ventures like Demon's Souls or Heavy Rain and make a valid, rational argument.
Why do they say Uncharted 2 "set the scene for a console still trying to find its feet" when the other three games in their list -LBP, MGS4, R&C:Future not to mention Uncharted1- all pre-date Uncharted 2? Uhhh, how many years of critical and commercial hits does it take to "find your feet" herpa derp? Comment has no logic behind it.
I'd replace R&C with KZ2 or GOW3 too.
Black Ops > MW3.
Custom creative emblems you can zoom in on, clan tags and emblems on your guns, more unique game modes like wager matches and the rotation through every gun, MP bots, zombies, mix of eras, better campaign.
MW3 is a recycle machine. Tags and emblems ripped straight from MW2, Russians as bad guys = 20 years too late. Martyrdom back as a deathstreak. No one I know plays Spec Ops. Back to NewYork for the 100th time this year.
Wow, considering how they're decompressing the story I'm surprised they scored story as high as they did. It's the same thing every year. Samey maps, more questions than answers and some token shoe-horned sci-fi cliffhanger. Time for some dramatic deaths or something to get me caring again.
Thank god indeed or I'd be forced to buy it, lol. As it stands I can just wait for a price drop. General review consensus seems to confirm what I've been feeling for over a year, that AC has burnt itself out with these yearly sequels, evolving at a snail's pace.
Good thing there's finally an ending for some of these charachters' arcs although I'm sure Desmond will return for another 3 games as he inches towards his own overdue convoluted resolution inv...
Wait, are some people actually dismissing paying for PS Plus as defeating the purpose of discounts, lol? Omfg, Plus isn't exclusively for discounts anymore than Gold is.
You know there are sales that are exclusive to Gold Live members too like Portal Still Alive recently and the Dead Rising 2 DLC, right? If you're Silver like me you're sol.
You don't subscribe to Gold or Plus just for that. Plus also gets you early demos, betas, free games, fr...
Thing is MW3's more responsive and fast movement and frames as Leadbetter puts it, sacrifices realism, weight and other things under the hood to maintain it. Effects, res', destructibility. Certain games like BF/KZ go the other way to 30fps not as a flaw, but to showcase these other strengths. Yeah MW3 aims for 60fps, but the maps are the same charachter clipping, painted on affairs they've always been with twitch shooter ice skating movement that defies physics. Nothing we don...
No it's not a lie and YOU know it.
You can't play PSP games on the BC PS3 lol. So wtf. GOW Origins remastered makes total sense.
The old Sly games didn't have 16X9 widescreen modes, 3D, Move mini games, HD resolution & 3 platinums. A simple BC PS3 upscaling doesn't suffice. I don't want to play 4X3 on my 16X9. *#% that. You go right ahead & stretch the image til it's a fatty patty. I'm not interested.

Fast&Furious meets Man Apart with a side of Cholo.

I think the devs are on Valkyr.
