At the end of June this year, Microsoft was sitting on a cash mountain of $23.7bn (reported on the BBC today) and has never been in debt in its 33-year history. It can afford to undercut the competition. The Xbox360 is about building the brand awareness and I suspect Microsoft is looking to the next xbox brand for total dominance. I'm no fan of microsoft (I have a PS3), but I understand and appreciate microsoft's tactics. It's very clever. We're almost at a point where you can't afford to not...
You're making me blush at work lol Now everyone knows I'm not working. Pah! lol :)
You saying I'm fat? :P lol
I will take that as a compliment. It's actually a still from a GIF where the frog strips and becomes superfrog complete with a cape!! lol :)
And I honestly that is really odd!!! What have I become? (rhetorical question, no need to reply!)
Looks like it could be fun ...
Music and movie studios have been very slow to react to the emerging technologies. First they complained about the content on the internet then mobile phones and they make it hard for the platform companies to provide content freely. This goes for sony BMG and sony TV/films. DRM without interoperability is flawed. I understand their concern about losing revenues and piracy but if I buy a shirt from a shop, I expect to be able to wear it whenever I want and wherever I want - not at times and i...
What weird logic ...
At this rate, I'll need to win the lottery to give up working and just play games for a living! Not such a bad thought ...
they stop people playing on COD4? Do they shut the servers down? Or willthey support both? I can keep playing COD4 for ages and ages yet!
Still, I would disagree that it is offensive in the south park way - doesn't look like it's at all in the same vein. I haven't played so I couldn't say. But thank you for saying you disagree :)
It's most infuriating :(
He says "My intentions when releasing this project were to mock the foreign policy of the United States and the commonly held belief in the United States that Muslims are a hostile people to be held with suspicion." Weird way of showing it.
While there are games where killing is clearly involved (and I'm not to bad at it myself) - it's never based on a race or a relegion. COD4 is not based on killing a specific class/race of people. People with racist beliefs might h...
I just tried even using my US profile but it still didn't work :(
But I preferred the spectrum ;)
since a game made me smile continuously! My (facial) cheeks are beginning to ache and I haven't even got a copy yet! :)
"Game corrupts youth. New assault imitating the trend of squirting milk concieved in a game. Government worried about the moral decay of society. Victims complain of how they now fear milk ..." blah blah blah :)
Very strange game though! Who comes up with these concepts? Don't understand how it works. And why milk? Why not water?
I don't know if I can support another FPS. I suppose I'd better start going to blockbuster and renting games.
While I normally just care about having good games, for the first time, I would feel a certain reluctance in purchasing anything from these guys. They have treated PS3 owners with contempt and the will eventually come crawling towards us eating humble pie and I don't think I care. There are lots of other companies making great games for the PS3. They'd have to make a quadruple super alpha game for me to buy it.
Although, now I feel a little silly for feeling this. Ahhhhhhhh!
I agree. I'd buy more Blurays if they weren't so expensive. I was in HMV on Saturday and they're selling DVDs for £3 - it's insane. So I'm caught between spending a lot extra on the Bluray or going for the upscaling on a DVD ...
