do this every day without just getting board. My god, ps3 this, Xbox that, doesn't it get boring. All the article is saying is just imagine what the PS3 would be capable of with a different architecture. I mean, can't we all agree that with more RAM the games would be even better. which goes for both consoles. who knows maybe the cell + 512 mb of ram is the height of all gaming, I mean, do we all really think that MGS4 or Uncharted will still be the best looking games of this generation a ...
you are both right, not to hop on the back of what appears to be a bit of a short-fused jerk,
"The new discs are similar to Blu-ray Disc technology and slight changes to the hardware on a [Blu-ray drive would allow the new Pioneer discs to be used on one]"
the same sentence talks about HARDWARE changes, I may be wrong and if I am fine, but that means that there would need to be a change to the physical PS3 or BR drive. but this doesn't mean future PS...
to the reviews that said the frame rate drops only on the 360
I mean, I am all for the occasional typo, but a cardio infarction and a myocardial infarction or too completely different things. One is real, myocardial infarction, and one is nonsense. It sort of takes away from the author's point for me, kind of like in a movie when two people are riding in a 67 mustang and the time frame in the movie is 1960. I don't know maybe I am just retarded . . .
yep I am just retarded
that they just changed the voluntary ESRB program to mandatory in the state of new york
That is the way I understand it, while no games to date are sold without a rating, they are planning for the possibility that the esrb may fall apart some day and that there needs to be a rating.
I may misunderstand the bill, but that seems pretty logical to me.
As much as we don't like to admit it, video games are different from other forms of media because of the inte...
"Also, the respective market shares of both Windows and Office remain above 90%,"
so that means that people who own macs are using windows? I highly doubt it, so by your guess of 14% that means the pc/mac market is now above 100%, I knew computers could do a lot but man I didn't know they could create 4 extra percent . . .
did you read the article?
16 billion in profits and 58 billion in revenue, things sure are bleak
Why ...
but it is very premature to think that other OS are going to be 50 % of the market in 5 years. What I think they are doing is speculating. Vista's launch did not go as well as they wanted it to, but if I remember correctly XP started rather rough too.
Anyway you look at it, what is the point of the article then? they talk about some negative things without giving any real numbers to support their theories. Show me in there where they give industry statistics or even industry trends...
Microsoft's net profit for thes fiscal years
2007 - $14,065,000,000
2006 - $12,599,000,000
2005 - $12,254,000,000
2004 - $8,168,000,000
2003 - $7,531,000,000
remember, these numbers are after all expenses
sure looks like microsoft is failing
it would be like saying Sony is failing, it makes no sense, they still made a giant profit, so how are they failing
this is my favorite quote
"While Windows is sti...
home may turn into one big micro-transaction, I know I am
Hopefully it is awesome so Microsoft has no choice but to step it up and either drop the price or give us something that sony hasn't thought of yet, and that will be very hard to do,
Either way, the fact that Microsoft and Sony are actually in a competition this time around has really made Sony put in the effort and I for one am glad they are. Bought damn time there was some competition
I have always thought this is the one game that EA has gotten right this gen. NHL series is absoultely better than the 2k series in this respect. I guess this is what happens when EA does not have exclusivity and has to compete. 07 was great 08 was better and 09 should only continue. I am hoping that they do something about speed with the puck though. players on defense too easily catch up on to faster players
it is nit-picking
could use another one for the Cabin
that sounds like the reason why I would get it. I enjoy COD 4's multiplayer quite a bit, but I think it would also be fun if there were no Helicopters and were no super accurate air strikes. I am a fan of the older weapons as well. I think that if the game is EXACTLY the same except set in WWII (Pacific Theater) with the older weapons if will be very fun to play. It might just be seen as an expansion pack but will be very welcomed by me. I am also glad that Infinity Ward gets another yea...
look at it this way, eventually the PS3 may take over the xbox 360, however, barely overtaking its competitors and finishing second is a huge loss in market share for sony. They have not had a game increase sales yet like Halo 3 did. It is important to have those types of games, so that they not only barely outsell the 360, which they are doing at about a rate of 20,000 to 30,000 world wide (I think), but dominate the 360 by 100,000 per month, that is how they will catch up and surpass the...
"microsoft is behind the scenes doing so much things even with sony developers with their cash flashes that they can manipulate developers into not really using that potential in the machine."
that might be the dumbest conspiracy theory I have ever read. you are insinuating that Microsoft has paid Sony 1st Party developers to make poor games or games that do not live up to the hype. Congrats, you are going on the big board. Keep that Tin Foil hat Shiny
I would say that it is impossible to make a game like that fun to play. Here is why, yes you still have guns, yes there are people to shoot, but the fact is you know you are on the losing side. You are on the side of bad. No matter what the internal struggle of the main character is, you are still on the side of, for lack of a better term, evil. It also puts you on the losing side. A small victory in a game would be boring as hell, people don't play games for small victories. I think th...
couldn't of said it better myself, they basically just proved that a rating system is needed,
that is, if their study was actually done following the rules for experiments, and if it wasn't than this is just a correlation meaning that there are many things that could also "cause" this type of behavior in these children who were illegally exposed to M rated games
agreed, but either way the game was rather popular, maybe not 10 million copies in 4 months popular, but the point was that COD was an established franchise with good games long before 4 came out. Guerilla Games still has to prove that this time around it will be different. I for one think it will be a very good FPS with a lot of action, my hope is that the game isn't short and that they are able to design some sweet multiplayer maps
my dad has a Ph.D and a J.D and I had to tell him what bluray was just 3 days ago, I wouldn't consider him an idiot.
I bet if we all went to work and asked everyone what bluray was, most people would have no idea. Not everyone cares.
you can just buy the game, if you pay $60 you get 80+ songs on the disc, or you can download each one for $2, doesnt make that much sense to me. Also, not everyone, including myself bought Rockband one, so buying 2 with new instruments and such makes sense.
And they are not taking your money, they are earning it by giving you a product in return. If you don't like it, don't buy it,
