which signs are those?

The way I see it.

It's micorosft only means of competing with apple and google in the living room as a service provider, if MS drops it then they'll have pretty much no means of being a recognizable brand beyond computers.

Xbox live for them is just to valuble, they're basing much of their newer products on integration with the live service, windows phone 7 for example and the app and gaming side of the pho...

The design of games has always been relative to the controller, not the other way around.

FPS games were largely unsuccessful on consoles until the adaptation of the analog joystick, and became competitive with PC fps games only when dual analog controllers came along.

RTS games still lack a presence on consoles because of the controls.

Fighting games, and Racing games both suffer without the use of some analog control, making them more popul...

If people stop approving HHG.

That number seems kinda low IMO. I expected SC2 to be around 5million.

1.steam accounts can be made by anyone and are only limited by game purchases and email accounts. Ie, many people can have many accounts.

2. high end graphics cards are often bought by companies to facilitate cadd.

the 360 already has a hardware tessellator as part of the gpu. Halo wars makes great use of it in rendering the terrain.

The ps3 has software support of tessellation which is included in the software development packages that sony sends out.

If anything microsoft saved them, the gamecube era is when everything began falling apart for rare, and it hasn't been the same since.

Starfox adventures for example.

Sure i miss the n64 golden days but it's not microsofts fault.

That said. I want Urchin.

Microsoft co-owns the Kudos system, so you're going to be guaranteed that it will return.

well, the racing part was, trick and the lap modes were great. The race ai was one of the worst versions I had ever seen, you literally had to drive perfectly to win. No matter how fast you went, the AI would always stay right behind you, which is extremely difficult in a game where there's a focus on maneuvers which tend to slow a car down.

PGR2 was pretty awesome though.

Why is it dumb to use the name?

It's a microsoft IP, it's like how nintendo had team ninja create a metroid game, MS can contract any developer that agrees to make the game.

I just hope they keep the caliber up.

I'd love to see someone utilize the engine for a good MMO.

the point is that gamestop and other retailers make a killing off of the resale of used videogames, that's money earned by them for no work.

Most people are completely ignorant of what that free DLC entails and will just assume it's something special, that alone seems segnificant. That said.

Free DLC for first new copy owners will encourage more players to purchase the game new as opposed to use, which provides more money to the publisher and develo...

I got a good 30-40 hours from fable 2, and with the revamped co-op for Fable 3 I'll probably end up getting a lot more.

well, Actually i think he's just a good overall reviewer, it seems his marks are right on the money in terms of not being overly high. An 8 is a great game, but now and days most games which deserve 8's are getting 9's, probably because of pressure from studios and publishers to get good reviews in hopes to sell more copies of games.

I really hope reviewers start handing out more 7/8's as opposed to the 8/9's that many games have been receiving.

do people really needed to be reminded of how last gen rumble was, and how much people were eating into that BS?

Hell we could go so far back as to bring up blast processing. Fanboys will always sing praise of garbage as long as that garbage has their favorite company backing it.

I thought the review embargo is being lifted 4 days prior to the launch.

Probably because they're using one of the worst middleware products known to man.

I thought he mentioned in the video that if you move back to make a more powerful shot your character does the same, and that you can move around the table if you like... (towards the end of the vid)

Can someone confirm this for me?
