See, this is one of my compatriots from the GP days. what up Art? Still hating on Halo I see.
You know Art, I have seen you come to the defense of many a Sony anything, but an obviously fake review is all good with you I see.
Lets make no bones about it, NOTHING we comment on here is important. Not a single thing. These are all just games. but I suppose since this has to do with Halo, its petty, right?
Funny....I was looking at your comment history,...
Seriously, I know you arent trying to argue what fanboys run this site, are you? Denying the painfully obvious? Its really no secret or anything, this site has been this way for years.

Not true. I have heard people say that, but its not true. Maybe in 2006, but I used to only post on GamePro.com before, when they had a good forum before they revamped the site and made it terrible. On GP is where I first heard about this site, and that was in early 2007, a...
Triple Combo? And the article is submitted by a Trainee named "Get RROD or Die Trying"? Thats not even a clever way to dis...that doesnt even make sense.
We all know there is an embargo on Halo 3 ODST, and it should be respected as such. But these lame attempts to make ODST look bad are just despicable.
Maybe you hate a game system and its games (as crazy as that sounds...),but to go this length really indicates some deeper seated issues.
Th...
Those numbers still look pretty good, but with a 44% decrease in only one week, it will be interesting to see where it will bottom out before the holiday rush.
It really should be no surprise to anyone that they are enjoying high-sales at the moment from a price drop and a new system design. But keeping in mind that PS3 sales were down YoY before this price cut, they're really not too far from where they were at this point last year.
Looking at VGChartz' numbers f...
Thanks for the info mang! Enjoy that sucker
Looks like they revamped the lighting system/textures/etc., but I would expect this game to look better after over a year of time to improve it.
I agree with GEC that its pretty much the same game, but if you havent played either, the PS3 would and should be the one to get....
....for most people. I already own NG2, but if I didnt I would probably buy the 360 version still, since its cheap now and includes the gore. A huge draw to NG2 was the gore; the way limbs wo...
On one hand, I really like the Zune HD's OLED screen, and browsing, form factor, HD Radio, etc.
On the other, no Mac support is killing me. also, why the hell call it the Zune HD, but dont even include the HD cables for playback?! And what about Xbox support? I figured this thing will network with your 360, but I havent heard any specifics yet.
Does it see your 360 on Wi-Fi if both are on the same network? While I can assume it will interface with your Xbox 360 u...
U took the words right outta my mouth there buddy. I honestly asked myself the same thing...who needs that kinda space? But with the installs, I could see that. But it is a lotta space. On that same token, I dont see the need for having 250GB on a PS3 (mine has a 320GB HDD...lol. it was there when i bought offa eBay...), unless you keep a lot of media on it...but then again there are mandatory installs...
OFF TOPIC REVIEW: so GEC, I listened to your advice and bought Uncharte...
A guy named MikeMichaels is calling me Ldunce...classic.
The fact remains there is no career mode, there are only 4 cars on screen at once. and I have to wait for thr right day to buy the car I want? What the hell is that?!
Look, Im not here simply to bash GT and be happy that it sucks, quite the contrary. And I find it amusing that you were so incensed that you went and dug up a screenshot from GT1 (thanks for the trip down memory lane!) just to show me the diffe...
This was supposed to make me wanna KEEP my PSP. What the hell is the point of having 800 cars, but no career mode? 800 cars...but only 4 on a race at a time? And it has LESS customization than GT1?!
I dont get it...GT1 was on a CD-ROM, meaning 700MB maximum. And they cant give us a career mode with almost 2GB? Or even the 1GB that people have been saying it was limited to? And thats another thing...are you telling me the PSP Go means that ALL games will now have LESS space ...
i didnt see Omega state anything derogatory or untrue. I think its more telling that the truth bothers you so.
anyhow, I was thinking the same thing, and I said it earlier, they should include the first game while they're at it (like the ODST bundle comes with Halo 3...now to think of it, why not include vouchers to download Halo 1 with it too?!).
@ Fishy
ODST is not DLC. Its basically what Half-Life Episode 1 or 2 is, but even more full-fledged. If y...
this will be the best-selling limited edition bundle ever. I have no doubt about that.
Nice...the holiday bundles are upon us. They should also include uncharted 1 while they're at it.
bundles are nothing new. The previous Halo Bundle? The RE4 bundle earlier this year?
And how would this be desperate? I would think Sony effectively HALVING the cost of their system in a little over three years seems a lot more desperate to me. Not to mention all of the "get a sony credit card and get a PS3" or "buy a Bravia and get a PS3!" deals are a lot more on the desperate side. No?
And a side note: Please remove your pic from your avata...
you STILL have a hard-on for Halo 3?! You still telling your tired "my GF saw it and thought it sucked" lame-o stories from the Gamepro forum days? LOL.
Keep on trying Art, maybe youll convince the 10 million or so out there you're right.
Overhyped to me means something that was hyped but didnt deliver. Gears 2 nor Halo 3 fall under that category.
Both games still in the top 50? Yep.
Both sold millions on the first day of release? Yep.
Both are scored over 90 on metacritic? Yep.
Both have hundreds of thousands of people playing RIGHT NOW online? Yep.
I seriously fail to see the "overhype". You can hate all things Xbox and Halo and Gears, bu...
The PSP Go will not do what its intended, and thats take a bite out of the iPod Touch/iPhone sales. Its too expensive for one. Whoever at Sony thought it would be a good idea to re-release a system over four years later at THE SAME PRICE POINT is a complete moron. If had been $150 to begin with, maybe. but this is the same system as far as the games are concerned.
Compete with the iPod Touch or iPhone? nope. Its too big, has too clunky an interface compared to Apple (doesnt...
Seriously? How does this article make a lick of sense? even worse are the morons in here pretending that this is some kind of valid point.
Its a LIMITED BUNDLE, and a great deal. You get a limited edition console, extra controller, 250 GB HDD, and MW2. For only $100 over the Elite asking price. I think this is one of their best ideas this year. MS basically just stole the biggest game of the year, and we all know it was gonna sell better on 360 regardless.
We've all been hearing for a while now they are phasing out the Pro models. And while I have my preferences, i do own all 3 systems, and I would have to admit MS may have to do better.
Either make LIVE free or include something else. All things being equal, you do get more with the PS3 at the same price point; WiFi and Blu-Ray playback specifically.
I think the Elite will sell well regardless, but it would just be stupid to ignore the PS3's value at the same price ...
