This means they are here to stay and for the future, we can expect healthy competition to give us a better deal on consoles... Good.

Dareaver15859d ago

i thoroughly enjoy my 360, and had no doubt that they were here to stay...

Game on people, especially after the 29th.....!

kevoncox5859d ago

Imagine how much of the 360's gains are offset by the debacle that is the zune player. Everyoen thinks Ms needs to sell the most 360s to be profitable. That's not true. MS is going to continue to gain about 100.00 on ever 360 sold until sony can afford to lower their price more.

Citizen Cook5859d ago

You're making even more money!
And the PS3rd STILL isn't proffitable!

HA HA HA HA!

Boink5859d ago

if they could finally solve their reliability issues, they could enjoy greater success.

hopefully the new 360's have solved that issue, and I guess we'll see as people play GTA IV for hours and hours straight.

So true same with the online factor because my private chat does not work since december.

dan-boy5859d ago

have you checked your NAT settings bud, controller/controlerb settings headset?...sounds like the problem lies at your end mate. every person i know who have had simialar problems, has been able to fix it themselves.

man, it just shows you how many pro-sony boys populate this site! if this had been a thread saying the same thing about the ps3, this would already be over 100 comments!

KingME5859d ago

Great observation. It also shows their unwillingness, to give credit when due. If it's to be given to the 360.

warhawk12345858d ago

I'll do that when i get online today, but if it still doesn't work then its there end right. Really my system won't connect to private chat. I have opened up all ports to go to the xbox on my rotator.

I like to play my 360 and talk to my cousin on private chat while I play single player parts of games be cause we work on them to together through private chat.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5084d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5084d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5084d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495084d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5084d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5084d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
