MS front loaded the 360. There haven't been any major releases like Halo3(30 million ad campaign) since, Halo3. 2008 didn't have any MAJOR(buzz-everyone-wants-nons top-coverage) exclusives until Gears2 hit at the end of the year. Everyone is talking about the vareity on the 360 but lets not forget Banjo/Lips/You'reInTheMovies scored terribly.
Don't worry GEC. Just like 2008, MS/360 Will take credit for wearing the crown of something, because its not games\quality\quantity. They ...
More outfits/filesharing.
DOOOOOMED
XD
for the sake of my bubbles, im just kidding.. christ. u guys are like pitbulls sometimes.
Yeah, you can do all that stuff.. but... what are the actual missions going to be hehe... will destroying that much stuff have any negative effects? Or can you just... kill.. everything...
as far as action porn goes, Prototype looks crazy(just saw the videos). But you know when you get to the point of "ok, what to do now that its out of my system.."? Yeah it reminds me of Hulk Ultimate distruction as well.
Infamous, seems less interesting at this point. But...
Is this one due at the end of the year?
I'd love to see a mission done in infamous vs Prototype.
Not really sure exactly... WHAT you are supposed to do. Prototype reminds me of Hitman though, but is there stealth?
I dont know, lets wait to see how this pans out. I'm laughing at everyone when they review it, flop it, and its counted on Metacritic :)For all rights, it should be.. added. Not sure why it wouldn't be.
Confused on what variety they want, because there was none in COD4/Gears/Halo to speak of... How about what variety is in gears/halo, that isn't in COD4? And how it didn't affect COD4's gameplay.
edit@ Giant Enemy Crab:
The reason Official Sony sites dont...
saying it looks better than Gears2. Which is.. obvious.. but.. lol.. whatever.
Where were you when those franchises were being MILKED to death? Oh wait, no where... thats because none of them are known for milking their franchise.
You guys are missing the point, and trying to argue DLC. Thats not the issue, its specifically NON-HALO-GAME-RELATED-MILKETRY . Keep talking about DLC all you want lol... But thats not what my good friend Graphics Whore was talking about. You know it, and So do I.
And to top all of this off, its not even official Halo...
Alan Wake is on the PC.
Fable2, isn't exactly the front runner in UCG. Milking MGS4 would be a limited edition shirt in resistance/motorstorm for no apparent reason or bonus. If you can play a new type of game in Fable2 with the suit/gun. I think it would be in the same ballpark. But this is pure milking if it.
The two worlds aren't even in the same timeline for christs sake. Whats an assault rifle doing in Fable2?
MGS4 is a bad example, since its an entire new game for LBP.
R2...
Sony still owns the PS2 right?... lol... the day that price cut happens. Ms is goign to faint..
And yeah, if Sony is doomed. The 360 is doomed right next to it. But no one wants to report that, its better to report that Sonys gaming division performs better than microsofts, but at the same time. Call the PS3 a failure.. lol.
Shoot yourself in the face.
Better, is always subjective. But MS placed rules on "BETTER" when they decided to use Metacritic to describe how amazingly well scoring their game lineups is, compared to Sony. Now, Sony's games are all better by that definition, so whats the rush to play the teacher of a special kids classroom and call everyone a winner?
I'm sorry but there is definitely some credit due on Sony's behalf for 2008. It was a year with constant good games, and firmware updates, plus home ...
According to sales, wasn't it the year of the Wii again?
Because the 360 had absolutely no game lineup in 2008. It ended with Gears and fable that sold well, but Lips/Your'reInTheMovies/Banjo all sold less than 100k.
So is "year Of" mean that a console that sold 2 games at the end of 365 days is the winner by one period? Because MGS4/GT5p have outsold Gears & Fable. Yeah, they came out earlier, but... time is never relevant to fanboys.
I me...
No game news for the 360 = oh my GOD really this is news today? On N4G. This is the 7th month so far.
I want a patch for ingame music. I know you get it after you beat it... but sheesh.. its hard to focus with the music.. it makes me want to go to a gay rave. Its a tiny niggle, but its the only thing keeping me from firing it up again, and i'm far too lazy to cut a cd on, and mute the music in the game.
In your world of logic, all business should spend all advertising money on their employees, instead of selling goods.
Failure.
You aren't. Its a choice. When you buy a 360, you choose to pay more for HDD's, or you choose to accept that you have to buy 2x steeringwheel/joystick/whateve r One for the 360, and one for the PS3/Wii(since they both use usb as well for most aftermarket wares). You choose to pay for free online play, i mean come on.
You dont have to do anything. If you don't want to get nickel and dimed on peripherals, don't buy a 360, simple as that.
Last time I checked, you still ...
that doesn't even qualify for a rumor.
witch!
