"After getting my hands on the thing, I can report that OnLive mostly works as advertised--but a few flaws may hold it back from being a home run.
...
But unfortunately, the illusion faded along with the loading screen. Once I was in the game itself, I immediately noticed the unwelcome signs of blocky compression. It wasn't so compressed...
Is going to be a HUGE disappointment due to the majority of people not having the bandwidth to support it right yet.
With wanting music and vids in people's home spaces.. You think people really want to watch whatever goofy videos you have in your home or listen to your music instead of everything else Home has to offer? I don't put Home up on a pedestal or anything, I just don't see why adding music and videos is going to be live 2nd heaven for some.
Enjoy it for what it is. It's free to enjoy and not something you have to partake in.
But I can't stand this Aaron guy. He talks incessantly about the PS3 which should not be his focus. When you talk so much about the competition it only shows your true fear. Just keep to what makes the 360 great and stop trying to lambaste the PS3 so much.
He's the biggest Anti-Sony troll on the net.
When PS3 owners claim Amazon sales matter, 360 owners say they don't for 1,000 reasons. Now, they do. Double standards ahoy!
PS - I game mainly on a 360, but this "news" is truly nothing to tout. Pick your battles if you choose to do so.
You're not making any sense, you seem to just be angry at people that enjoy Home. Hardcore gamers certainly enjoy aspects of Home. I'm fairly hardcore with over 500 trophies and none of them from Home.
N4G and every other website *is* virtual in the sense that it's certainly not real. It's all virtual chatting as opposed to talking with someone one on one in this "real life" you claim to have while wasting time arguing about what others enjoy on the internet. You ...
But you're sitting in a virtual, text based world right now, here on N4G, chatting with fellow gamers. Why is it so bad that Sony also provides a 3D virtual world with many other activities than simple text chat (although it is there and I've met many cool PS3 owners)? You can enjoy a web based discussion forums or comment system but not on the PS3? Ok, so don't use it, it's not costing you anything and plenty of people enjoy it.
I don't get the hate.
That looks HORRIBLE!
You can obviously tell the game is a FPS based on the commercial though. In no way am I confused into thinking it might even be an RTS which is what Halo Wars is doing. They give zero inkling.
But alas, defend your stance all you wish for whatever reason. I never said it was just Halo Wars doing it. I meant in general.
Like having a video game commercial with ZERO gameplay footage going on. Not sure what's up with that but by the marketing of it, you can't tell a thing about it.
What's the deal with this site? 10 anti-Sony folks can approve such an article, but if gets almost 60 reports on it and it's still approved? Hmm.. Maybe this site isn't what I thought it was. It's starting to look like flamebait and troll central with not much real "news" going on. More like News4Fanboys or something. Garbage.
I just wish they'd go back and add trophies for the R&C games. I'd rebuy the game and replay it just for those (I've already beat them both about 3-4 times each).
Quick! Get to an eye doctor! Can you read this post even, or is it all blur?!
(Seriously, the 360 version looks much sharper and details pop.)
That this PS3Center.com site is really an anti-PS3 site disguised as a PS3 fan site. It posts so many articles that cast the PS3 in a bad light or just how they word things.
From now on, I will hover to see the source and if it's from:
- HipHopGamer
- that Blorge site
- Split-Screen
Or another handful that I can't remember but will when I see it, I'm not even coming into the comments. Articles like this are sooo predictable and tired and just lazy "journalism".
I'd say the very same thing. This isn't a Sony vs MS thing, I own both consoles and actually prefer the 360 which is why I have more pride I suppose and expect the same from MS.
He's just so overwhelmingly unkempt. A mess. Seriously, he looks like a slob, and he's what is supposed to be representing the XBOX brand?? He's no J Allard, that's for sure.
And is he *seriously* throwing an actual "Westside" gang sign?! ... Such.. a.. POSER.
You mean PC only games. This service only plays PC based games, it's not like they have 360's and PS3's linked together. They have PC's handling the processing power of (get this) PC games. Bioshock, Crysis, etc, all great games in and of themselves, but when you add in the lag factor and the shoddy compression effects, no thanks. What, some of the "hardcore" gamers that don't even like to play on wireless 802.11 connections are going to suddenly think input lag isn't a big deal...
