Figured what out? The new 360 models have a failure rate equal to or possibly even lower than the PS3 Slims. Microsoft certainly figured it out, but there's nothing they can do about the old consoles that are still out there.
It's a great experience, but it would be better priced at $10 rather than $15. It is short and there is very little replay value.
Hopefully with the extra money they'll be able to license a lot more content for instant streaming.
I miss the days of women not having the right to vote.
This game has a 93 on Metacritic so far with 10 reviews. Amazing! Another AAA title for the Xbox LIVE Arcade?
Perhaps you should read more than the title, good sir.
Yes, I'm a 360 fanboy but I still hate the fanboyish title of this article. The article is a great read, though. I guess this is the only way you can get people to actually read your article. Sad...
It will be bought for Halo, Gears, Forza, Fable, Xbox LIVE, and the hundreds upon hundreds of quality multiplatform games.
Quote from the article: "Microsoft's console gets ragged on for having multiple discs for many of its larger games"
Dumb. You could almost count the number of big games that released on multiple discs on one hand. And it was never more than a tiny inconvenience. A 10 second disc-swap and you're right back in the action. You never even have to go back to the dashboard.
What? How is it bad news for either platform...?
When the PS3 launched, the 360 was 5 million units ahead. According to the most recent financial reports, the 360 is currently 3.6 million units ahead. So in close to 5 years the gap has only closed 1.4 million units. Over the years, the gap had widened and shrunken and widened and shrunken, but the PS3 has never passed the 360 and the smallest the gap has ever been was around 2.9 million. The last financial quarter, the gap once again increased by 0.6 million.
Microsoft: ...
Want I want from Rockstar is for them to keep up the unbelievably high quality of their current gen games like GTA IV and RDR (my 2 favorite games of this generation). I want that meticulous detail and unrivaled depth they put into their games. I want a game where I'm still discovering small, little touches 100 hours in (I JUST found out you can knock over a cactus in RDR with a stagecoach O_O).
I want Euphoria physics, I want GTA IV's satisfying driving physics to re...
The music was mainly based on the time period though, not the city. If we saw Vice City again, it certainly won't be in the '80s.
"And how 66% of the first few waves of 360s have failed. Pretty sure that on average 1/3 360s are no longer working. Yes 360 might be ahead of ps3 sales but if you count working units the PS3 is MILES ahead."
You CAN'T be serious. Almost all multiplatform games sell better on the 360, and you're trying to claim that 1/3 of all 360s are no longer working? That would give the 360 the most incredibly high attach rate of any console ever released and would compl...
This title just SCREAMS "damage control".
This misleading title makes it sound like the demo is coming soon.
Halo FTW!
Goodbye! We won't miss you.
Nice!
This is great for anyone who hasn't played RDR yet...
Who hasn't played RDR yet?!?!
