I seriously clicked on this article just to laugh at the people who think video game characters or anime characters are hot, especially the way this article describes it. I love how this guy says that not finding these characters attractive or not going through to watch a panties scene requires the self control of a saint.
It's called being normal to have the self restraint to not do the above, something I see that most here aren't. Seriously, what loser the guy that wrote this ...
It's written by a guy named "Human Moron." That just testifies to the fact of his stupidity.
Now what I'm going to type next may seem fanboyish (that's the term used by those with nerd rage, right?) but every article needs to have a counter argument to prove the reader thought this through, but I can tell this writer did not and this is going to be to easy.
He lists in his argument:
1. Online is Free and Easy
2. LittleBigPlanet
3. I...
Aww, some more complaining about the $50 price tag of Xbox LIVE, how cute. 50 dollars is not much money at all, and if you can't afford fifty dollars a year, yet own a next-gen console, then you should be slapped.
I'm tired of arguing this, if PSN was also 50 bucks a year, no one would be complaining. Besides, most people I see complaining about LIVE's price are people that EITHER a) Prefer Playstation 3/Playstation Network over its competitors, b) are fanboys, or c) really, hone...
I don't know why people say it would be hard to bring back Backwards Compatibility, it would not be and it doesn't have to cost a dime to the consumers. Its called Software Emulation, let me repeat that if Sony is reading, Software Emulation. The beauty of Software Emulation is it allows you to use the existing hardware to play the older games. I can download a Playstation title from PSN, why can't I just insert the damn disc?
The fact that I can play older games downloaded from ...
Logic seems to be something you don't have much of. Why should a company have to redesign and recode an entire operating system just because of a bunch of whiny GNU browsers don't get the same oppurtunities as IE does? If they want to, they can go create their own OS? Windows works just fine and removing IE would require lots of work, as I recall, MS won (sort of) an antitrust lawsuit because removing IE is fatal to Windows.
And then you bring up Media Player. Seriously, whining ...
This lawsuit is so stupid and I can tell by most of the people that have commented here that they either hate Microsoft or are very dumb. And by dumb, I mean dumb as in "why not put a disposable browser on Windows to let you download a browser because the casual user doesn't know about, say, Firefox" dumb. Why should Microsoft or any company be forced to advertise or put on a disc, their competitor's product, that's free advertising and not what capitalisim is about. As long as Micr...
Unlike Killzone 1 which I think sucks and is one of the worst games I've ever tried to play (I haven't played very many games), Killzone 2 looks awesome and is probably at least, a 9/10.
Metal Gear Solid 4 was a great game, it's a shame that it doesn't get the justice it deserves.
Furthermore, the game has FINALLY sold 4.5 Million, which, once Sony's flagship title (which is now KZ2), only now reaching 4.5 million is embarrassing.
If this was in a few months from when it originally launched, I'd be more enthusiastic, but its now, and reality sets in.
But this doesn't stop MGS4 from being a great game, and the first MGS that I was truly ...
While Uncharated is going to be a great game, the irony of some of the first comments, such as the one that 'stated' this was approved to tick of jealous fanboys is quite funny.
If any of them had a brain (which I seriously doubt), heck, if most of N4G had a brain, they would realize that by saying "Game A is Game B's Killer" you are effectively admitting that Game B was great. If Game B wasn't great, then it would not need a "killer."
So in othe...
I have yet to see a quality game from Valve for the consoles of this generation. I played The Orange Box once and thought it was so stupid that I threw it in the trash.
Besides, who would want a game from such a fat slob? He looks like he ate a cow, that, or the lunches of everyone at Valve.
And I say this even while I'm not too thrilled with my Playstation 3.
No my friend, I am American. But the rest of what you said, I have to agree with. Perhaps it's social differences between us (Me & most of the friends I play with) and them (the people we find in Matchmaking), but Matchmaking is typically an uncomfortable experience for all of us because of the level of rudeness found on games like Halo and Call of Duty. It is ridiculous, people are rude to their own team and to the other. I'm white, but I still find the racial slurs such as the N word in...
Yes, I have played on LIVE, I've had LIVE since it first came out (Not the same account, of course, you couldn't change your GT in those days) for that matter, so as you could imagine, I have quite a bit of experience.
And before trying to tell me to get my facts straight, I called 'most' users of Xbox LIVE losers, you should try to get your spelling correct before telling me to do something.
I also never said that the majority of Xbox LIVE is made up of racist clown...
Teabagging is definitely part of Xbox LIVE, and the same with the racial slurs and sexual insults. The trick is, don't play with losers like that, and lets face it, 80% of Xbox LIVE is made up of losers who sit in their Mom's basement all day with no social life.
With NXE has come Parties, play with people you know, simple as that. Of course, on N4G, there will be fanboys crying 'Play on PSN, it more mature' but as PSN grows, that will not stay true. Playstation 3 becoming more ...
Although I didn't read the article because I am about to go out, I can give you one good reason why not:
You'll have a lot of butt hurt Sony fanboys crying foul and that Microsoft 'stole' or 'bought' their exclusive. And then you will get a bunch of really nerdy Sony fanboys like that one dude on Youtube who was trying to get people to not buy the game on the PS3...that will do wonders for FFXIV being an Xbox exclusive, wouldn't of it?
90% of gamers are nerds and fan...
Agreed Hercules, Xbox LIVE is more of a luxury or premium online service, it's price tag is indeed for the extra features and further development. For example, what I understand about Primetime, a feature due out in Spring, is not a need but a want. Personally, I play games as a recreational entertainment, so things like Primetime and other casual games.
PSN, however, is more of an entry level type of service, providing most of the basic features (still needs a few) and some 'lux...
I bought multiple copies of Vista Home Premium so I hope for am easy and cheap upgrade to Windows 7, although I may be buying a new computer in Winter so I could get 7 included.
The problem with the Playstation 3 is not that it doesn't have any games (debunked now), its online sucks (questionable), it costs too much (400-500 isn't much), or we need to wait to see the true power of the PS3 (I find it funny that this has to be said, don't you?).
It's the Operating System (the Firmware). It lacks features found on the Xbox 360 such as Cross Game Invites (I'm going to use this as an example). See, when it comes down to it, Playstation Network is ready, the i...
Actually, the stupidity among many on N4G never ceases to amaze me. Has anyone of you ever stop to consider that if Microsoft didn't come a long and develop Xbox LIVE that the Playstation Network may have never existed?
It is clear that the Playstation Network was a direct response by Sony to the Xbox LIVE service that Microsoft created. If it weren't for Microsoft, the 'beloved free' service would probably have never existed, or not exist the way it does now.
Even N...
I just love how people are disagreeing to this with foolish loyalty to either the Playstation or Xbox brand. A Sony/Microsoft made console would be the dream team in gaming. It would be the mix of all the right stuff...like Windows 7.
Then there would be no more fanboyism because Nintendo isn't a 'real' competitor anymore. The Wii is a toy and a fun soccer ball =)
Killzone 2 is the Playstation 3 flagship title, and has sold only +/- 1.05 Million in it's short time being out. After being hyped up as the greatest game of all time by this site, these are actually the most pathetic numbers I've seen for a quote unquote flagship. Talk about KZ2 being the Halo killer, taking the COD4 crown, what a joke.
I can see disagrees coming by the tens due to the lack of common sense found on this site, but KZ2's sales are as astonishing as LittleBigPlanet...
