I'm glad that someone has pointed out the things in this article. ME2 does deserve a lot of credit for being a great package overall but it shouldn't make it exempt from criticism like this.
I'm really enjoying the game but I can't really disagree with anything in this article. All the suggestions would improve the game.
I don't see why so many 'Fans' can't cope with some constructive criticism.
Hearing game reviewers rave about the combat and envi...
they're both great games... move on.
the real new in this article is that they imply they are working with and now have experience with working on Playstation 3.
This could mean that they are indeed working on Mass Effect for PS3.
Forget the spin in the title every one's doing that these days... it's how you get hits.
I had a 360 launch unit for 2 and a half years without any problems... I sent it off for repair and got myself a new one in the meantime (a new cooler unit ect).
That brand new unit had video problems from day one... I took it back and got a new unit. This second wouldn't read disks so I took it back the third one seems ok (btw: this was all within 2 days). The guy in the shop asked me "what the hell are you doing to them" and I felt really embarrassed for him and mysel...
solve all the other hardware issues... blank screens... DVD failures... noise and general build quality.
(i'm on my number 3 "new" unit with HDMI 'n all that) terrible terrible quality controll and hardware... great games.. but to be honest even the "great games" argument is on shakey ground these days because of the amount of exclusives and quality software for PS3 now.
pop a DVD upscaled onto a 50" 1080p TV and you'll wish it was BlueRay
oh... sh!t... I can't stop laughing.
Bruce... people should pay for entertainment like this.
...oh wait... your serious?
... oh dear.
I have to agree, 360 will top the sales this year but let's face it... if the PS3 was the same price as a 360 it would be an entirely different story.
The only thing stopping PS3 from being the console of choice is the price... sort that out and they could clean up.
As it stands I think Sony will continue to bring the exclusives and making the machine more and more desirable (and slightly out of reach for some) and then BAM! big price cut and you have lots of people ...
most of those games you can get (and one or two soon will get) on PS3
if there are a few houses in the area that are using the same wireless channel you'll get a lot of collisions (most routers come out of the factory with the same channel and no one ever changes it).
log onto your router and change the channel... it *might* improve things.
I walked into a Gamestation here in the uk and the guy in the shop without prompting started to talk down the PS3.
I didn't even make eye contact and the employee still felt the urge to tell me that PS3 didn't have online, couldn't play movies and 'all' the games are better on 360.
I just told him: "I've got both systems and you're pretty f*ing wrong about everything you just said."
I think people who jumped on the 360 bandwagon have spent so ...
YES.
Everyone can see it coming. Sony have already outsold 360 in Europe and Japan in total numbers and they've been outselling 360 in North America for months and months.
Now that MS are targeting the Wii audience they're aiming at the bigger (Wii/Casual) market but IMO they'll fail at that.
Casual gamers can get their fix of Singing games, Camera games and Waggle games from PS2 or Wii without shelling out on a system that sits somewhere between the Wii...
very few people will switch to the new dash unless it offers significant improvemnets in functionality.
Leipzig is the new E3, and there's plenty of interesting drinks for game journalists to get beer'd up on!
I thought this article was right on the money... personally I fall into the 'Loved Halo 1 and lost interest with Halo 2 and Halo 3 was a good game but massively overrated." camp.
MS should have given it a rest after Halo 3 but they'll milk the franchise to death and there will be so many Halo games around by the end of this generation that no one will care anymore.
I hope Bungie announce a new IP with an intelligent main character and story rather than another H...
we had sky in our house and it's a totall waste of money IMO.
I cancelled it for a year once and then re connected only to find it was still showing the same old stuff... so I cancelled it again and put the box in the loft, I haven't missed it at all.
This PlayTV is just the ticket for me... slick interface... freeview recorder... won't miss another Doctor Who
:-)
One day an hare was bragging about how fast he could run. He bragged and bragged and even laughed at the tortoise, who was so slow. The tortoise stretched out his long neck and challenged the hare to a race, which, of course, made him the hare laugh.
"My, my, what a joke!" thought the hare.
"A race, indeed, a race. Oh! what fun! My, my! a race, of course, Mr. Tortoise, we shall race!" said the hare.
The forest animals met and mapped out the ...
is that more or less everything MS showed at E3 had been done 2 years ago on PS2 or Wii
Buzz, Singstar, Eyetoy, Mii's... event the dasboard seems a little bit desparate to make it more Casual (and a lot like Apple TV/iTunes)
this E3 was just a message from MS for their shareholders to say... "Look we're doing what you wanted, we're going Casual"
Sony on the otherhand had loads of games that were new and interesting and their message was one of ...
until one system shows a clear difference then these comparisons are just for the pixel & frame counting OCD fanbois.
So far all I see is they're about neck and neck and neither is really pulling ahaead in terms of performance.
