I bought SMG for my wife's niece.

So, I got to play it over the holiday. My verdict? Repetitive and unoriginal.

Mario doing his usual Mario stuff. In 3D -- with the jumping between planets an unnecessary gimick...

You're *really* not missing much.

What about a Bomberman Platformer?

What? you know who "has played uncharted"? Every informed game reviewer, and you know what their opinion is?

8.8 / 10 at metacritc.

Putting uncharted at #6 for PS3 titles for the year.
Putting it at #2 for PS3 exclusives, where R&C (8.9/10) is #1.

Therefore, there are at least 5 other games (multiplatforms...) that would be more likely worthy of "best of 2007" lists.

I know it bothers the Ps3 owners o...

Halo 3 should have faired better, IMHO.

And, while portal is interesting, is it really GotY? No. I dont think so.

"Why are you looking for any reason (how ever pathetic it may be) to make yourself think KillZone 2 will not be a great game."

He's said "Tell my how KZ2 justifies this hype, show me why guerilla warrants this faith".

And you reply "why do you want KZ2 to suck?"

You are skirting his question -- and he is 100% correct -- that Killzone 2, has absolutely -Z-E-R-O- credibility as a "...

Of course it is. Why?

A) Konami and MS are very tight.

and

B) Xbox 360 represents more than half of the TOTAL 7th Gen. Industry -- Konami has accountants you know. The global install base between PS3 and Xbox 360 is VERY wide, and the Xbox 360 continues to put distance between them with greater sales worldwide.

EVERY analyst (and obviously not the PS3 fanboys on N4G) damn well know (B).

That said, I could care less....

Gears has a "weak multiplayer"? Huh? Tell that to the hundreds of thousands that play it daily that keep it one of the most popular LIVE titles.

The story was "weak"? Nonsense. The story is terrific, and, plenty long enough to be a good value.

Instead of running off at the mouth -- and contradicting the industry'
s press (which showered it with GotY awards) -- perhaps you should PLAY THE GAME.

Clearly, you have not.

blah blah blah. dont be a PC-gaming bigot.

All the reviewers disagree with you.

Bioshock has one of the best average scores (the best?) of any game in 2007.

The best part of this?

Xbox 360 is a Windows Media Center Extender. Whatever drives you have in your PC (BR or HDDVD) can play movies over your network to the entertainment center's Television.

*THAT* is why WMC is one of the most important elements of the Battle for the Living Room and why PS3 isnt remotely as capable in this capactiy.

Apple is less than 5% of the worldwide market. Linux is less than that.

To the OSX idiots above me. You are utterly clueless.

OSX is no more "advanced" than FreeBSD (which it is a fork of) or GNU/Linux. OSX is GUI+FreeBSD.

Anyone who says "OSX" is "advanced" *CLEARLY* doesnt know WTF he is talking about.

Go away, or go get a Comp. Sci degree and come back and tell us about what is and is not good about Vista. I've spent the time at University to earn the right to an opinion, you lot hav...

Perhaps I should tell my Fortune 5 company that pulling the Vista client roll-out ahead by 6 months (due to the success at the Beta sites) is a bad idea because some idiot on a gaming forum thinks he's clever.

Uh, did you notice that the PRICE was a relevant relative metric? The Librarian is considering what it COSTS to get that PS2-backwards compatibility.

The article is accurate, perhaps they could have said "A PS3 with BC is vastly more expensive than the rest."

But, then you'd be in here saying:

"Its not VASTLY more money!!!1!, article over. I CANT HEAR YOU! NA NA NAH NAH!"

Oh, you Sony Defence Force fanboys and your delusions. There is only one study of its kind on the relative noise of each consoles.

See, this is how your librarian would react to each console:

PS3: SSShhh
Wii: SShh
Xbox 360: Sh

"i happen to think the ps3 has a better quality of games in each genre than the 360. but once again thats my opinion, just as this article is an opinion. Not fact. "

Its too bad you didnt read the fcuking article.

The Librarian used meta-review scores to take away the "personal opinion" aspect. See, this isnt an "opinion", it is FACT that the Xbox 360 has a much better reviewed games -- ON AVERAGE.

This is the part th...

Ah, I love an impartial 3-rd perspective on a topic. Nothing like the sense, organization and clear thinking of a librarian to shed new light on a topic.
