The xbots can defend M$ all they want to on this. The issue isn't about ads, because I'm all for ads in gaming as long as they aren't intrusive, and are getting me some free content (although Toyota can stick Yaris up their ass). The issue is not being able to skip ads. When I go to watch a video review on Gametrailers a commercial always plays, but sure enough it can be skipped. Same deal when watching a movie.
We've already got product placement all over the place, and it's enough. ...
Nowhere to be seen I see. Forcing consumers to watch ads is ridiculous. If they're going to do stuff like this on Live it should only effect Silver members.
First off the people buying a Wii with dreams of losing weight are the same types looking for that magic pill that will slim them down while they gorge on Big Macs.
Sure playing something like Wii Boxing will burn calories, but unless you're eating a healthy diet, and excerising regularly don't expect to lose that gut.
Taking nothing away from PGR4, GT Prologue has no peers graphically in the racing genre.
Of course the lobotomized xbots will say otherwise because they don't own a PS3.
I just picked N3 up the other day brand new for $7.50, and am having some fun with it. I'm not expecting much from Kingdom, but I'll also be waiting for the real sources I depend on to crank out their reviews.
..then there's the fact that it came from Xbox Kings, from someone (probably TheMart) named "SDFm3rc" as in "Sony Defense Force merc". Yeah, all credibility goes right out the window. I think this thread needs to be shut down.
Oh, and as for PGR4 looking better, well enjoy it because Bizarre Creations left Xboxland and now your PGR games will be handled by whatever loser developer Microsoft can dig up. Maybe the guys from Quantum Redshift will be taking over lol. ...
Sorry kid but you can wait your week, while PAYING gold members get first dibs. It's only right that Microsoft gives Gold members more perks, so stop crying like a little girl and upgrade to gold; otherwise stfu.
PS3 fans shouldn't even comment considering they don't even get the majority of the demos XBL gets, and when they do it's months later. To think PSN just got Blacksite. Compared to XBL the PSN is like having "tin" member status.
At least one of my systems is giving me new demos to download.
One day only? So instead of a mad rush in January to buy one of twenty Wii's, it's a mad rush to buy one of twenty rainchecks. Good job Nintendo and Gamestop! Your "raincheck" (more like pre-order) program is a joke.
That's what I'm talkin' about! Otherwise unpucker those lips and move away from Sony's ass because there's still work to be done with the PSN. While Blacksite is actually a welcome (it's not that bad if you people would give it a chance), it's also old as hell. I've already had two Blacksite demos on XBL, and downloaded Kane and Lynch a few days ago. Where's the PSN K&L demo? PSN is almost always behind the curve when it comes to releasing new demos on time. My other gripe is when are we ...
The 360 version is $7.99 at Circuit City this week and I'm still not buying it. It's a great "old school" idea ruined in execution.
...who does backflips over anything Nintendo does? Yeah, won't be any tilted reviews on IGNWii and DS alright.
Who did this story? Captain Obvious?
A white PS3? This was the perfect time to make a limited edition red or wine colored PS3. Since there's nothing special about this PS3 I don't know if it'll sell out or not. I'm not sure just how popular DMC is in a Japan that's becoming more and more nongame centric.
Where to start...You mentioned that M$ has inked a deal with "both companies" in regards to Mass Effect, which I'm assuming you mean Bioware and EA. There has been no mention whatsoever anywhere of Microsoft striking any kind of deal with EA regading Mass Effect, so you're wrong there. Also, M$'s deal with Bioware was before EA owned them and the Mass Effect IP. Even if M$ maintains the rights to publish all three titles, it means little, because it's EA's baby and at some point the...
They have no compassion for human life, and I have no compassion for anyone like that. Teens or not, these animals will not be growing up to be normal upstanding citizens. It's why we need to have and utilize the death penalty because I don't want my tax dollars paying for their education, meals, and health care while they rot in prison.
Until I found out there's virtually no difference from the visuals using component. Plus HDMI's image quality gets worse over time, while component's is consistently the same? I'll stick with component.
I just bought the game by itself. I remember reading Diehard Gamefan's review of Christmas NiGHTS, and going nuts finding out it was a free giveaway from Next Generation magazine. I rushed to my closest Tower Records and nabbed it.
I saw the first pics of this game back before I bought my first PC some 7 years ago! How about not worrying about formats, and just worrying about getting this damn thing out the door and making sure it's worth the long wait.
Are you serious? After all the times Sega screwed consumers with Sega CD, 32x, and Saturn you expected them to just rush out and buy another system from a company notrious for lousy third party support, and a habit of killing off their systems? Sega screwed nobody but themselves over the years, so don't dare put the blame on consumers who took the smart approach and held off for a system from a more competent company.
I bought a Dreamcast on 9/9/99 like a lot of other people, but afte...
