Saaking's Blog 5: Next Generation Consoles
1 day 9 hours ago | by: Saaking
It's my hope that the next generation is a long a way off; however, that shouldn't stop us from speculation and discussing what we would like to see in the eighth generation of gaming. It's safe to say that the big three will once again go at it so I'll make a sort of wishlist of things I would like to see ffom each console maker.
Sony:
Continue supporting first party games and p...

Halo: Reach vs Resistance 3
4 days 23 hours ago | by: maxxb117
Gears of War 2, Halo 3, Forza Motorsport 3... Killzone 2, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Resistance 2... These six games all have something in common; they're console exclusives. They have proven that they sell very well in their own way, ranging from 2 million sales on day one, to around 10 million in a few months. These six games are also sequels or prequels from previous well-known games to the...

Uncharted 3 needs improvement
7 days 3 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
I love Uncharted 2 and here are some ideas to make Uncharted 3 (I hope it comes out on next gen hardware) even better than 2.
1. Open world or at least open world stages/ chapters. The jungle stages are going to be in every Uncharted and I wish there was more jungle in Among Thieves, so make them like a real jungle which isn't limited. I completely understand how having a linea...

Micromania Game Show: round-up
7 days 3 hours ago | by: Sangria
Since 2002, every year in France are organized the Micromania Game Shows. Micromania is in France the equivalent of Gamestop (and they eventually have been bought by Gamestop in October 2008), the biggest french video game retailer. Considering the huge profits and growth they make every year, they decided to create the Micromania Game Show, a similar event to E3 with few differences. The show ...

Well, I have not long got back from the Eurogamer Expo (in Leeds) and
thought I would share my experience as well as give you a chance to
check out and insane amount of good quality footage and pictures of the
great day!
My day started with a 6.30am wake up, a bus ride, train ride, and taxi
ride - to finally get me and a couple of friends there, the doors

The age of innocence of Playstation is almost over
14 days 2 hours ago | by: Cajun Chicken
This is a little controversial blog for PS3 fans. I've put this under the 'Playstation Family' because I honestly believe the age off innocence is almost over on PS3. Wherever this is a good thing or not I'm not sure.
I'm talking about the same stuff that I usually rally about, the constant disappearance of pick up and play platformers and action adventures that all ages can play on Playst...

So many great games have been released that I've had to pass on some of them; however, with 2009 nearly over we have to look forward to what's ahead. 2010 is shaping up to be one of the greatest years for gamers, but which is the console to own? Which console will offer the best quality games? Let's find out.

Operation Failpoint (a rant about how Codemasters bent us over and screwed us all)
20 days 15 hours ago | by: matchgrade
It's been a little less than two weeks, and I'm already ready to say goodbye to this game. Getting the $20 at gamestop out of the $60 I paid for it might actually be better than having it sit in my home. Here's why.
I'm not a CoD fanboy either. Military sim and tactical shooting are totally my cup of tea. I've been waiting a long time for the "ultimate" milsim that this promised to be. ...

Tips on posting N4G Comments
22 days 19 hours ago | by: danthaman15
Hello, this is my first blog on N4G. The following is some helpful tips to posting a comment. Enjoy; feel free to discuss in any way in the comments.
1. Don't have your avatar give away what your true feelings toward something is- Writing a descriptive comment on your particular and "unbiased" opinion of a console is not aided by your avatar proudly toting a picture of a RROD with "54.2"...

PSP Go or DSi...Which one is a worthy upgrade?
24 days 18 hours ago | by: darthv72
I was talking with my best bud about the Go and the DSi and the
approach both Nintendo and Sony have taken towards these two "upgraded"
versions of their current handhelds. Just to state, he is the
electronics dept manager (day shift) for a Target store in Folsom CA.
He was telling me about how the Go was doing, sales wise, at his store. We both agreed
that at the current time it isn'...

Guitar Hero vs Rock Band - Who's winning the marketing war?
26 days 3 hours ago | by: john master lee
A recent stop to Toys R Us to take advantage of their oh so tasty Buy 2 Games Get 1 Free promo going on this week. That's where I took this pic. To say that the battle between Guitar Hero and Rock Band this month was intense was an understatement. We'll soon see NPD numbers for September which will validate who at least was stronger out the gate. Activision threw out the first vol...

Ending ESRB Bias by Lifting the Ban of AO Titles
28 days 1 hour ago | by: dinorawrr
Games are beginning to become more and more violent, which has raised much controversy over the years. Nobody can deny that games like Condemned 2, Dead Space, GTA4, Call of Duty: World at War, Left 4 Dead and Dead Rising are very violent; EXTREMELY violent. I personally have no problem with extreme violence in video games but many other people do, seeing as how it is the most important factor ...

Lately, I have seen more and more bias reviews from websites trying to either get people to go to their website or favoring one console or the other. I and many others are frustrated from these reviews because we all just want to know if the game is good or bad.

Gamers Today Are Way To Picky
29 days 15 hours ago | by: Eiffel
I've noticed in the past few years that the mortality of gaming has only had two major focuses, graphics and story. Growing up I use to play just about any game I thought was fun. The graphics were not top notch but were just plain fun and enjoyable. It's gotten to the point gamers focus on the small things just to get the full enjoyment out of game to the point it becomes an interactive ...

Dealing With Stubborn Corrupted Data
32 days 2 hours ago | by: dinorawrr
You do NOT need to reformat the hard drive!
I previously had a few "Corrupted Data" icons on my PS3 for many months. I got an error message every time I attempted to delete these files, but I finally found the solution. There is no need to back-up any files, but you can if it'll help you feel better. I've shared this trick with many people, and there were no problems. Don't hold me respo...

The Definition of a Cheater
33 days 17 hours ago | by: Twisted tony
What is a cheater? According to Webster’s dictionary, a cheater is
simply one who cheats. To cheat is to practice fraud or trickery OR to
violate rules dishonestly. Pretty cut and clear, right?
Well, with online play and achievements, labeling one as a cheater
has become a bit complex. With the advent of achievement boosting,
online glitching and hardware modifications, the line of...

Could Game Critics learn a thing or two from Movie Critics?
37 days 12 hours ago | by: Boldy
1 perfect - being entirely without fault or defect: FLAWLESS
This is the definition of perfect as defined by Webster’s dictionary. Perfect doesn’t really seem like such a complicated word or a word that is difficult to wrap your mind around, and yet… game critics seem to not fully understand what this word means. It almost seems as if they have made their own definition:
