Let's face it, the article is hypothetical and doesn't mean it's really going to happen. It's just crazy watching both Sony and Xbox fans go freaking nuts when stuff like this is mentioned. It's even more humerous when people use stuff that isn't even out yet to justify their purchase...
Home is going to rock! Haze is going to kill Halo! FFXIII is coming out someday...
See, comments like those mean NOTHING as the products aren't even close to coming out. THe PS3 ...
Achievements are fun and encourage people to play games above and beyond just beating them, but they're still kind of lame. I mean, sure, it's a good incentive, but that's about it. I would never say anything to the effect of "they're the best thing to happen since online play on consoles", because they aren't. They're fun, but not revolutionary...
Ok, check out this crazy ass guy hasn't played the game!
Got to Xbox Live and type in his name... FrankCaron.
See any Halo 3 on theres? Nope you don't!
Nice job Ars Technica! The best reviews are those that come from games you've never played...!
Seriously, what kind of integrity is that? How the Hell can you hold your head up high and post a review for a game that you've never even played. Ya'll look at that review and you can see ...
Positive proof that fanboys suck nuts...
LONG LIVE THE VECTREX!
Most of the lame-ass comments are coming from people that didn't bother to fully read the article. If you'd actually READ it, you'd see that there are some valid points to be made.
Still, Killzone 2 promises to be a lot more than it's predecessor. They've said in the past that the limitations of the PS2 hampered a lot of the progress they wanted to make in the first, so I think that the second could be noticeably different and in a good way, however, a lot of the positive talk ...
After going back and playing it again, more defensively, I found that it's really a hell of a lot of fun. Definitely one I'm looking forward to.
Now where's my Lair demo?!
You get my last comment -
Sorry if I was kind of rude. I'm in a bad mood today and was hoping to see people take time to discuss the game rationally and in a way that would lead to productive communication. Your post was good and I see what you mean more about the gamers playing the game, but I think people are spending way too much time attacking this guy's character than actually looking at the comments as a whole.
I mean, Halo 3 is in the same boat, imho. Eit...
If so, I give you a lot of props for coming out here and posting that. Hell, I give you mad props for posting both. I think some of us realize that what you posted was merely meant for people to engage in thoughtful discussion, but the sad part of the matter is that people will look for any chance they can get to attack a person's character rather than actually look at what they wrote and attempt to discuss the major points found within your article. I thought it was a great piece.

The Great 1 - Wow... just. Wow. Seriously, you've become my poster child for being pro-abortion.
As for this guy's stance on the PS3, I don't see mention of him ever badmouthing the PS3 and even if he did, it would have no real bearing on the feature itself. The way I read it, as I would think others would have, is that the game itself is growing stagnant and seems to be showing signs of age - offering nothing truly innovative to the next-gen experience. It's never once a PS3 s...
Hell, I'd be insane not to - because what you're offering for "opinions" are nothing more than attacks on the guy's viewpoint rather than actually rebuttals.
For example, here was RussianSniper's comment:
"Someone's mad about not having a PS3...
Seriously, this guy is out of his mind if he's downplaying MGS, you don't see him downplaying Halo now do you?
No, lets just make the game look bad so I feel better..."
...
You know, if it were Halo, the Halo fans would be out seeking this guy's blood... if he were talking about Final Fantasy, those fantards would be ready to jam a stake through his heart...
The fact of the matter is that this guy's opinion is on MGS this time and here come all the rejects who simply can't accept someone's opinion on the matter, instead taking their time to vent and attack him for what is, as he says himself, his own opinion.
I really don't give a r...
Great Job, Sony! So if I work down in the coal mines for hours on end and decide I want to spend a little quality time watching a blu-ray movie or playing some 07 the Show, I can't because you won't sell to miners!
Oh, wait... minors...
lol
Checking Gamerankings did show that Liberation did fairly well. I think I was relying more on Gamefaqs buzz than anything else. Thanks for pointing that out fopums...
Suffice to say, if KZ can do what they want it to do and what the wanted the original to do, I'd be very happy to play it. Truth be told, I'll end up getting both anyway, so it almost doesn't matter. I think both will succeed and both be good games, but for right now, I'm not placing bets...
It's been around for a while. It's only now starting to grow in popularity. As for what a "deeko" is, I can't say. lol.
As far as this being between SCEE and SCEA, I think the news going around is that it is SCEA, as the brits confirmed it in the news posts I've seen.
"you think other ppl are on crack but your making fun of probably the Game of the Year for 2008. Yes we are excited for Kill zone 2, you must be blind or something not be excited after that trailer."
First of all, I'd say something freaking nasty about what you said, but I like your avatar and so I need to be kind.
Suffice to say, GOTY 2008? Let's not get hasty. Yes, it looks good - in fact, it looks amazing, but KZ has a definite track record and it's...
Thanks, Bloodmask. You said it perfectly.
And kingjkv - Price cuts and discontinuations are common, but we're talking about a system that's not even been out for a year and has already had one SKU discontinued. That is not a good sign.
Yes, I am appalled. I don't like it when the company I want to succeed simply uses tactics like this to sell products. Price cut, my ass.
Sumfood4u - you've earned the bubble, mang.
I love how most of these Sony fanpricks can only use the "I already own one" argument.
I own one, too, but that doesn't make what they're doing RIGHT. Lying about crap to the consumer? How does that make them a good company? How can you trust a company that's willing to rip people off like this?
You people are freakin' blind and only want to see your own warped version of reality. Seriously, you're worse than a religion... and one of those scary "d...
I can honestly say I'm f*&(ing appalled. I mean, lying to the consumer just to make a quick buck? That's absolute crap and Sony can piss off. I invested in a PS3 because I believed in Sony, because I thought they could pull some kind of magic out of their hat and do something special.
That ain't going to happen and they're going to piss people off in the process.
Nice job, assholes.
"One problem is the sheer volume of shootouts. It seems like you'll run into gun-toting goons around every bend. Checkpoints are frequent enough that you'll seldom have much trouble progressing, but it does start to get a little tedious when practically every corner means another confrontation."
It's supposed to be an action/adventure title. So are we supposed to hope that we only have to shoot one or two guys on occasion? Honestly, this is easily the dumbest comment...
