Xboxer, by Gary Cutlack on January 7, 2008:
The weekend saw devastating news arrive that's all but killed off HD DVD as a next-gen video format. But insiders over at the AVS Forums - who are proper, actual insiders who work for companies like Microsoft, Universal and representatives of the Blu-ray consortium - reckon the decision could've gone either way. In fact, HD DVD came very close to a victory...
Microsoft's much-rumoured HD DVD-enabled Xbox 360 could be one of the deals on offer to tempt Warner to support HD DVD exclusively. But the prototype was binned when Warner dumped HD DVD, effectively killing the format.
The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."
Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.
And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.
I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
It's almost time for the ASUS ROG Ally X to be revealed, and these leaked renders already provide a look at the device and its specs.
Is it running the same Windows OS? Because that is the biggest issue with the current Ally.
BLG writes, "Do you ever get that feeling after you’ve finished a game that you just wish there was more? Or do you spend years hoping and praying for a sequel that never comes?
This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
Wow, juicy.
It looks like both Microsoft and Toshiba had been Murdoch'd!
After the unexpected jump by Warner, which explains their laughable presentation. They hardly showed anything that people actually CARE about.
Thank you Warner. The future is Blu.
I some how doubt it but if its true its a shame because I would of upgraded to the ultimate no questions asked
Its not been the best week for M$ or HD-DVD, but frankly we (n4g members) predicted Blu-Ray winning over a year ago.
not to be it for us to say "told you so".....
Umm... can I ask when the Xbox 360 Ultimate was ever an official product? I thought it was just rumors and speculations.
