Lair isn't the greatest game ever made, but it's FAR from the worst. I think the expectations were high, and they just weren't met. I got my PS3 a while after the Lair release, and had only heard bad things about it, so my expectations were low. I actually found the game really fun. View

I'm exchanging my 40GB PS3, which was a replacement for an 80GB that died, later today! Since Best Buy ran out of Motorstorm bundles a while back, I've got a Metal Gear Solid bundle waiting for me. :) View

A great update - a couple of good looking demo's, some nice add-on content, the Qore thing...

...I'm going to have to wait to pass judgement on Qore, see what others think of it first. I like the idea, not sure if I'll be crazy about the implementation yet. View

I've tried not to get my hopes up for it either, but I think with the power and experience Sony Online Entertainment has in the MMO field, Home has a lot of things going for it. I have a feeling it could really jumpstart the PSN and help dispell the myths about PSN being a sub-par XBL. View

I'd just like to know the premise
It does look beautiful. I'm a big fan of the Planet Earth series (which I proudly own on Blu-ray) and I finished it recently. I particularly enjoyed their footage of the African wilderness. If you can capture that in a game, that's a point for you.

But while this "game" called Afrika has me stoked on that level, I'm just not sure what it's "about". Is it a game, or a visual experience? A game typically has conflict, adversity, or clearly assigned objectives. I don't know if "take the best photo you can of a zebra" qualifies as adversity or a challenging objective, but I could be wrong.

I mean, in real life - sure... count me in. On the PS3 - I'm a little apprehensive until I've seen some gameplay footage or at least read an article on the gameplay. View

HOORAY FOR BEAR GRYLLS! Down with the mob mentality knocking the Bear. That man is a genius. View

The music in that trailer, btw - is Mattafix - Living Darfur. View

I lost an optical drive in my first one - an 80GB. Luckily I have a 40GB to replace it until the new 80GB's come in... and in my investigation it doesn't look like BD-ROM failures are common (at least at this stage), so I'm not too worried. View

60 players is nothing new
The Battlefield games on PC have 64 player servers. If a PC can do it, a console can. There's no difference from a client perspective, just from the server side. The network needs to be able to accommodate it. Logistically it's been done - a long time ago. We know that 60 players can work from a gameplay perspective. Will it work on a console FPS? We'll see, but my guess is YES. View

Well, I'm possibly one of the few here that's played both of the first games. Resistance is likely the better story, but it is a more standard shooter. Technically, GeOW2 is more innovative for implementing the third person gun and dodge system as well as it did.

However, RFOM2 runs at 1080P, while GeOW2 runs at 720P.

...I can't believe I just brought that up. Seems to childish. But this is a childish thread, so I'm fanning the flames. ;) View

I'm a PS3 owner, and I wanted Bioshock so bad, I bought it for my PC. View

Personally I found the Resistance demo was lackluster... but then I heard good reviews, so I bought it anyways - and thankfully I did, because I loved it.

Haze demo was also lackluster, but I have a feeling it may not do justice to the full game. View

Well, yes - it's a recording off a screen, which typically is of poor quality. Still, it conveys the idea... and every time I see something from KZ2, I think it just looks better and better. View

I don't need Bioshock on my PS3. I played this 360 exclusive months ago - on my PC. View

Having worked in support for years, I know that a lot of people call with complaints about their broken hardware and naturally, they are upset. Still, after hearing for the 300th time "Would you rather I buy the OTHER company's brand?" - yeah... you would also feel like saying "Sure, but trust me, it won't be any better".

It's generally a customer threat, and usually comprises their final play at trying to get something they want. Regardless of if their argument is justified or not, when you're in support and you hear a customer threaten that sort of crap again and again, it get's old, tired, boring, and it takes a lot of willpower to hold back.

This guy will likely be fired by next week if he keeps it up.

As for requiring the receipt - they not only want to see the date of purchase, but the place of purchase. If you buy a used PS3 off Ebay from some guy, even if it is new, it won't be warrantied. View

No no no... stop giving us PS3 fanboys a bad name.

The game does look good. I'll agree that I think Killzone looks slightly better. Maybe that's graphics, maybe because I like the gameplay of first person games more than third person... maybe I just dig the more industrialized look of Killzone. Still, GeOW2 looks pretty slick and I'm happy for my 360 friends. This one is gold. I can't wait to play it on my PC. View

No, here's the proper analogy (from a man's perspective).

The 360's are supermodels. They don't have a lot of personality, but they're smokin' hot and every guy wants one. Still - many of them end up with crack addictions and bulimia, and they just fade out well before their time.

The PS3's are the girl next door. They've got way more personality, and they're cute. Sure they're a little more difficult to get into the sack, but when you do - you're in for a ride. :) View

@1.3
Yup... it's the PS3 army on this site that wants to find reasons to dismiss GeOW2. I'm a PS3 owner, not a 360 owner, but I'm big enough to admit that GeOW2 looks hot and will likely be a great game, and I'd love to own it on the PS3.

Luckily I'll get to own it on the PC. Thats the nice part about 360 "exclusives". :)

I'm not sure what's happened to these images, but I'd be very, very surprised if that was indicative of the gameplay. View

Seriously? We're going to debate over a comment made by Yahtzee? He's a comic game reviewer. I think he's poking about as much fun at white people who own all three consoles as he was illustrating that many people who aren't white, who are typically underpaid and undervalued, very honestly cannot afford all three. It's a legitimate statement, but when you brand it and make those sorts of divisions by color all of a sudden everyone gets uncomfortable.

...chill. View
