Firefox is the best browser out there and I have Chrome, IE and Safari installed on my PC.
Its set several years after the first Dead Rising game so I doubt there will be Otis, although there could be another character as annoying as he is lol.
Oh god my internet is getting beaten down at the moment, currently downloading both the Halo Wars demo and the Killzone 2 demo while watching videos on Youtube lol, good thing I have a 20meg connection.
I've pirated software, music, games etc and I will continue to do so. However I am willing to buy pieces of media if I feel it is worth the money, due to piracy I wouldn't of have know bands/artists like The Octopus Project, Horse The Band, World's End Girlfriend, 65DaysofStatic and more. I listened to the albums that I pirated and now I want go and buy them legally because I like them so much.
Even then, I don't see it as wrong if I pirate Photoshop, as a Student I just can't af...
Most of the games you listed are first party developers with a ton of cash and only one platform to work on. First party devs have more time, support and cash to work on their games. EA, Konami, Activision all have a ton of cash, they are big publishes etc.
I will have to repeat myself again, Valve are a medium sized company who is independent. They know that if they try and work on the PS3, it will overstretch them and it will cost them alot of money to learn. Valve already has...
You guys do know that Valve isn't that big of a company, for them to try and learn how to develop for the PS3 while trying to make games on the 360 and PC would just be silly.
Valve has Steam, this is making them quite a bit of money and then add in the 360 market and you got alot of money already. I think it more along the lines that Valve doesn't want to overstrech itself. Hell they still give DLC out for free for alot of their games on the PC, they even wanted to give out DLC...
Valve makes alot of money from the PC market, 360 market and Steam. Even the, they aren't big enough to handle making a game for three platforms.
This is just plain silly, why would you make 6 SKU's?
If there are only two SKU's available to the public then I'm sure that will be fine but if there is 6, damn that would create a lot of confusion amongst people who aren't that up to date with computers etc.
Can't wait but I may wait a day or two before I download it. The servers will become pretty slow and unresponsive due to the amount of people downloading, heh.
I can get a PC for cheaper which is more powerful, has alot more software/hardware support, can be upgraded easily and alot more cheaper than a Mac. I can make a hackintosh computer and I can have a PC with both Linux and Windows on the same hard drive.
While Mac's may look nice, they really don't offer anything that the PC does better and for cheaper.
They closed down ES due to the amount of money it costed Microsoft to keep them open. As a fan of Age of Empires and the studio it is sad to see them being closed down.
The Age of Empires IP will still be owned by Microsoft though.
Isn't Battlefield Heroes a browser based game?
Seeing as the PS3 has a browser then I'm guessing Sony has paid/made a deal with EA and Dice to make the game compatible with the PS3's browser.
My one main worry about this game is the controls, haven't played it yet but it seems like the controls are simple and they could work with a controller. Would I prefer if this came out on the PC?
Hell yes, RTS is one of the reasons why I love PC gaming.
I think digital uptake is one of the things that the UK is doing better than other countries (yeh..lol). In the UK analogue is being switched off region by region up until about 2012 if I remember correctly. Hell we have Freeview over here, pay a one off fee and then you can watch a set amount of digital channels including BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Five all for free.
If your not sure what Freeview is then you can read it up on wikipedia.
As much as I like Gears of War 2, he does say alot of things right about the game. Gotta remember those chest high walls next time I play lol.
Vista is getting a SP2 before Windows 7 is being released which should improve Vista even more.
