[Bumpmapping]

Oh god it's the Hip Crap Grammar again LOL!

[cereal_killa]

More Flame Bait to get the Muppet's going you've got to love Sundays how this idiots site doesn't get banned is beyond me comes up with nothing but lies and rumors every week gets called on his lies every week and yet gets approved every week.

[Bumpmapping]

Brinks looks like a beefed up Xbox 1 game is comparison haha! Bu bu but teh inferior textures and lightingz!!

[retardednickname]

I really wonder if this would ever get approved without 10 of his friends spamming the approve button minutes within this going up.

[WildArmed]

lol. I was wondering that.
I was in the approve section.. didnt hit refresh for a minute.. and it never showed up there. I came to the approved section and BAM. o_o
on a side note, was watching Brink videos today.. looked awesome, but the textures are no where near Killzone 2.
http://www.gossipgamers.com...
But the game looks alot of fun.. one of my most anticipated games as of today xD

[Shotgun_Roamer]

Why can't the mods just ban this fool. It's flame bait + a rumormill in one annoyingly presented 10 minute video. No one even values his opnion or gets anything from his babbling. Please end him.

[ukilnme]

@ Shotgun_Roamer

Flamebait and rumors are part of the N4G way. If the others are not banned for submitting those type of things, why ban HHG?

Comparing Brink and KZ2 is just wrong,they are not even in the same ballpark

[N4PS3G]

what's the point of posting high quality screens of a finished game (killzone2) to compare it with small low quality Pre Alpha E3 Footage from June 09 (Brink)?

[Shotgun_Roamer]

Because they don't come from one source. Example: IGN will have a run of garbage articles but produce a good one from time to time. This guy is just garbage everytime. The only deviasion he has is that some of his videos are more annoying than others

[fishd]

I couldn't find any better pic of Brink,care to share some with us?

And those KZ2 pics are not from the final version,
1st one is from MULTIPLAYER beta
3rd one is from E3 2007

2nd and 4th one are,respectively, from KZ2 demo and Preview code for media tho

[Unicron]

I find it funny that the much maligned art style and aesthetic of KZ2 is being evoked by Brink, yet all they did was up the color saturation. Now it's "zomg teh beautifulz?" Funny.

And those character models are ass and the animation had best be WAY early. Sky dome painting is nice, if a bit flat.

[Simon_Brezhnev]

@ XBOX360-FUN

that is a good idea give it graphics like Yakuza 3/4 but be open world ninja :)

[DelbertGrady]

Brink looks pretty damn good imo. Love the lighting and colors. Awesome animations and art direction as well. Check out this vid.

http://www.gametrailers.com...

[-Seven-]

We dont know what genre the game will be but your right most ninja games are hack and slash.

A mixture of MGS and slpinter cell conviction with some yakuza would be awesome.

The next shinobi might even be a PS3 exclusive judging by the track record.

[GOWIII3]

Wrong. Brink has more color, sharper textures, more detail.

Killzone 2 has blurry, patchy textures that look good from afar but not up close. KZ2 has two colors, less defined textures. The lead designer from KZ2 is working on Brink and is obviously taking advantage of the 360's hardware, which is the platform they show the game off on. The game blew people away at E3 behind closed door.

Since only alpha stage footage has been shown so far, please don't spam up the comment section with pics of Killzone 2. I know you will try to post pics with just the right light glaring, to make KZ2 seem better looking. The KZ2 lead designer/developer and others, used lighting in KZ2 to hide the game's average textures with that classic PS3 trick.

http://g4tv.com/videos/4302...
Just look at the rust and the paint peel in the hallway walls 1:37-3:13, Jesus Christ. Add some beams of light with red balls coming through cracks and we can call it a day. There will be no need for PS3 fan excuses in KZ2's defense, there will be nothing left, unless Brink gets a bunch of motion blur.

[WildArmed]

GOWIII3
really now?
After a quick view of your comments, its clear you hold something against the PS3.
I feel sorry for people who see games with their fanboy glasses.
Brink looks good, but its not in the same league as K2, U2.
I bet it'll be more fun then K2, no doubt about it.
I give credit where its due..
If you have seen Killzone 2's textures upclose.. you'd be deleting your comment right now =/

Please dont try to make such biased posts in the Gamer Zone.
Brink looks good.. but its nowhere near the best =/

[baum]

"The lead designer from KZ2 is working on Brink and is obviously taking advantage of the 360's hardware"

That's one of the dumbest quotes of the day. He was a *designer*, not a programmer. Very different jobs. Why don't you change your name from GOWIII3 to something more suiting like... maybe... HaloIII3? You'd save everyone a lot of time.

[Antan]

Onto another new account i see......must be in double figures now?

"The lead designer from KZ2 is working on Brink".

Neil Alphonso was the lead "level" designer on Killzone 2.

"taking advantage of the 360's hardware, which is the platform they show the game off on"

Yeah, that's footage from the PC, played with a 360 controller (exactly like E3, PAX, etc.) It's literally the exact same demo, running on the same PC. I should add we've got the same levels running right now on console, looking just as good...

http://www.splashdamage.com...

So, seems like they`re taking advantage of the PS3 also ;).

Stop spamming the article. Trying to force your opinion on others who disagree is rather immature. Also, please dont talk technical as you are rather uninformed on the subject, though to be fair, this has always been one of your many weak points down the years.

Brink looks really REALLY good, but still has it all to prove. One would expect a game released in Q4 2010 to trump a similar game released Q1 2009. Its called evolution. Whats clear for everyone to see i think is that Brink so far, doesn`t have the lighting system, particle fx, smoke fx to match KZ2. But with another year to go, anythings possible, especially on PC.

[ultimolu]

People like you is the reason why people can't accept games for the way they are. Brink looks interesting-the graphics look good but anyone who compares this to Killzone 2 is out of their minds.

You actually have to play Killzone 2 first before you dare make that assumption. You haven't played it so don't try to compare anything.

[Noob]

But it doesn't come anywhere close to what KZ2 offers graphically.

More colors =/= better looking game

The animations are average(kz2's is far superior), lighting isn't as good, textures aren't as good, not is much going on, etc. The game reminds me of a watered down KZ2 but with more color.

[FACTUAL evidence]

you honestly need to look at kz2. Matter of fact, look at the screens fishd posted. Brink is a beautiful game don't get me wrong, but i must say it's only a step further from gears 2. Saying that this game is graphically better than kz2 is like saying UC2 is graphically better than crisis....i understand brink has more vibrant colors, but hell, Farcry 2 has more vibrant colors than kz2, so i guess that game looks better than kz2 as well? (BTW farcry 2 looks amazing so don't can it!)

[N4PS3G]

lol since when is 7 a mediocre score?

7.0 to 7.4 (Decent)

6.0 to 6.9 (Passable)

5.1 to 5.9 (Mediocre)

-IGN

[egm_hiphopgamer]

IGN Isn't HipHopGamer If I give a game a 5 that joint is garbage, horrible, that's the way i look at it

[N4PS3G]

Thank God IGN ain't HHG...i don't think they would enjoy a 50 Cent game lol

If a 7 is mediocre then an 8 must be decent and 9 means it's just good ... haha ok you get the point

anyway your review system is fuked up and a 7 is not a mediocre game..maybe you should lower the score ..but don't cus then they won't pay you! :O!! lol

[BigMassacre]

If 5 is "garbage and horrible" then why is 1 through 4 even necessary? Might as well have a scale from 1 to 5 then.

That's the way that me and quite possibly logic itself looks at it.

[Persistantthug]

You definitely got a F...obviously a fail.

Just thought I'd point that out.

[sabestar]

Hmm?? Shinobi would be great if it shows up, but I highly doubt it. Btw, Brink looks good and has a bit more colours, but it does not have the details and beautiful lighting effects of Killzone 2.

[egm_hiphopgamer]

I know killzone 2 has areas where it still looks better than brink but overall from what I seen I feel Brink goes to the next level I would say the sharpness is what gives brink the edge because killzone 2 although it sports great motion blur that effect in comparison to brink , brink just appears sharper with more vibrant colors, and when you walk up to textures it appears slightly more detailed because of the extra sharpness that game has

[LordMarius]

Maybe you should sharpen your run-off sentence.

[Simon_Brezhnev]

lmao @ MariusElijah

you got me seriously laughing

[iceman06]

I just wonder how "fair" it might be to compare a game running on PC, which we know is probably high end, to a console version. I would really wait on the Brink comparisons until we actually see it running on the consoles. It looks bright and vibrant and the overall feel is somewhat reminiscent of Borderlands (IMO). Character designs are a bit like the old Timesplitters feel with exaggerated features. I am excited for it. But, I am still perplexed as to why so many people don't understand that the limitations on color in KZ2 were simply a design element. It was gray, brown, blacks to convey an industrial feel and an oppressive atmosphere. Could you have felt the oppression of the Helgan people with sunny skies, white puffy clouds??? Don't think it would have felt the same.

[Ju]

UC2 has sharper textures then KZ2, but still, KZ2 has the better lightning and particle engine. Sharper textures can mean anything, but eventually that is a design decision and a matter of taste but no indication for a benchmark. (In fact, it is more "expensive" to do proper depth of field and proper motion blur - BTW UC2 has the best depth of field combined with motion blur of most if not any games so far).

[ukilnme]

You had me at Shinobi. Can't wait to hear more about this.

[Blaze929]

Yeah same here. Loved Shinobi on the PS2...although I never actually did beat that damn game becuase it was SO damn HARD....

[i3eyond the Circle]

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Brink sure does offer hell of alot more than KZ2 while bringing some new things to the table.

Several Classes
RPG Element
8 Player Co Op
SMART movement
While Maintaining a graphical quality that if not "better" in your opinion definitely competes.

The color is more vibrant and the sounds from the guns sound much better.

Pre Alpha E3 Footage btw is all that's been unveiled.

[egm_hiphopgamer]

thank you, at least somebody sees that brink is the future

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

NO!

Killzone 2 guns were the actual guns recorded in 7.1 Dolby Digital.

NO game sounds as good as Killzone 2. I guarantee it.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Usually, I agree with you.

However, I've seen Brink in its full glory and I have to respectfully disagree. It's a beautiful game, but it's not touching Killzone 2. (At least the console versions aren't.)

I'd say the only games that compete with Killzone 2 are Uncharted 2 and Crysis...both of which look slightly better than Killzone 2.

[LordMarius]

lol, by the time Brink is released Killzone 3 would have been shown, Killzone 2 graphics would become old news, and guess what will happen.

Killzone 3 > Brink

[i3eyond the Circle]

Well sir that is your opinion.

I'm seeing more detail, live color, constant smoothness, much more terrain to cover, and louder more impacting sounding weapons.

KZ2 has the edge on lighting and motion blur.

2 things that can be improved now because what Brink has on its side is more development time.

I can understand why some people will be mad but I'm glad that we have more games that will be able to reach graphical heights on both platforms.

[Nikuma]

The mirror's edge style moves in brink look pretty fun. Here's hoping it's a good game. Graphics look great but I can't say it's better than KZ2.

[Hanif-876]

I won't try to disrespect you like everyone else in this comment section because i enjoy your shows every week and you always have some good points/rumor/news. However, to say Brink looks better than Killzone 2 is simply NOT true, i'll advise you to play Killzone 2 again, and this time take a better look at the game. Also, another point i have is you just can't judge a game's texture by looking at a video, despite the video quality because its never a true representative of what the game will look like; there isn't enough detail in the video quality, so in the actual game you might just see better or worse texture quality. I must also add that Brink does have some better color pallets though, i hope in the coming months of development it will surpass Killzone 2 graphics, because its really not that far from it.

[egm_hiphopgamer]

@deadly spartan I agree with you about not judging a game based on the video but let me tell you this. i've seen brink in person man at E3 so i know how it looks on a tv screen in my face. listen it looks better and in the show i explained why i felt that.

It looks better slightly not by a alot but the point is this.

1. Brink has a sharper image than killzone 2 graphically especially in the heat of a battle.

2. Brink is more colorful and vibrant which enhances the overall look over killzone 2.

3. The lighting effects in killzone 2 is still the best but i haven't seen all of brinks levels and the game isn't done and trust me there's tons more to see

4. the character models have more sharper detail to them as opposed to the characters in killzone 2.

Overall the fact that they can even be compared to one another is amazing, especially running on 360.

When all of you see this game in your homes you will pop in killzone 2 and you guys are gonna be stunned at how close these games are in terms of graphics but you will notice a slight edge in favor of brink in my opinion

1luv and god bless and thanks for the support enjoy the show

[APOFISBORICUA]

of more than one gamer because everybody is after it. Thats the thing about PS3 games. They came and everybody criticizes them but in the year after they released everybody is searching for a game who is better or look better than that PS3 exclusive. For me, everyone comparing any new FPS with KILLZONE 2 only shows me how good KZ2 really is. BTW Brink looks better than 99.9 FPS shooters. Too bad the 0.1 that still looks better is KILLZONE2.

PEACE AND GAMING!!!!!!!

EDIT: Before you all atack...im talking about console you PC gamers.

[GVON]

I wouldn't be surprised if some aspects are better than KZ 2,and I don't see why HHG comments would cause problems.

Remember GG's engine for KZ 2 was first gen,and it should be possible to double performance with the next version of it.Also SPU usage in KZ 2 would back this up,as generally it only used 3 out 6 SPU at anyone time,and when under the most intense moments it only used around 60% of the recourse.

KZ is there to be beaten,and brink overall may do it (not everywhere) but it wouldn't be "holy crap KZ got owned"
Also regaining KZ textures,remember the PSN realtime advert,switch commentary and you'll here about a new system not ready for the game's launch but was in testing for that advert,they said advances to that tech would be in their next product,I also think it was used in uncharted 2.

[Thatguy-310]

I find it hard to believe that Brink's graphics surpass those of Killzone 2. I have been watching videos of the gameplay and it does not surpass it at all. However it does have good texture and all that but doesn't come near Killzone 2 but easily surpasses Modern Warfare 2

[grantps3]

brink may be an overall better game, but i still think that killzone 2 looks better. also brink is coming out more than a year later than killzone 2 so it should be able to match its graphics. wait for killzone 3 and it will once again top brink.

[peeps]

will be interesting to see what kz3 looks like. personally i'd be happy with how kz2 looked but maybe add in some more colour but concentrate on the content. The engines certainly there but if they spend the next few months (or years) concentrating on refining the gameplay, should deliver an amazing game.

ks2 just didn't have lasting appeal imo and can't put my finger on why. i was really really looking frwd to playing it as well but it wasn't long b4 i stopped :(

GOWIII will rip both of them to shreds, however I can't wait till KZ3 to add a bit more colour and see what you gonna say then. KZ2 engine is already done so expect it in 2011-2012.

Plus don't you see a pattern? Only PS3 exclusives are outdoing one another.

[DonCorneo]

light is non-existant - when you fire a gun in kz2, the environtment lits up but in this game, nothing happens

even the gun models look low-res

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Why would you have Warzone gamer guest star? He's such a joke. Come on, man. Really?

[egm_hiphopgamer]

what's wrong with warzonegamer? and also man your more than welcome to come on my show , that goes for everyone here commenting whether you hate me or love me, this is gaming and everyone has something too offer and I wanna know about it so yeah hit me up and we'll set something up god bless and be safe peace

[SilverSlug]

I think Warzone Gamer is funny, what is wrong with him being a guest?

Though I want to see a bit more contrast on a show, not saying Warzone is a 'Hip Hop Gamer' clone.

[Hanif-876]

You were right about Battlefield Bad Company 2 being a better FPS than Modern Warfare 2 though. I'm just completely addicted to the beta not having time to play anything else!

[DecoyOctopus]

i heard the brink gameplay videos is of the PC version played with a xbox controller

[NotSoSilentBob]

Wouldn't be the first time that Pc footage has been used in place of the 360.

[Noob]

The graphics aren't mind blowing and there's not much going on at all.

[Ju]

It would explain a couple of things, though. Things like draw distance is a limiting factor on consoles (due to memory constrains, which don't seem a problem in the videos), object count - and with it the cluttered environment (there's actually a lot, which I am certain needs to be optimized for consoles) - is too high, but a lack of post processing effects (things the consoles shine, because these are not necessarily GPU intensive tasks).

PC games (engines) try to use their biggest stronghold, and this is memory consumption (and how spoiled those games are) with raw fill rate but usually lack in the post processing world (because not everybody runs a quad core), resulting in a high res, sharp polygons, but low post processing (lightning/particle) effects. Exactly how Brink looks like.

[-x.Red.x-]

Brink looks better then Kz2?

holy crap!! wait...
where's the other articles? umm can't find any...

oh sh1t hip hop gamer
ohhhhh no wonder,

keep walking, nothing to see here.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

Brink looks good but the game is nowhere near KZ2's lighting, textures, character & gun models and there's just so much more going on the screen not to mention how intense the on-screen action is. The atmosphere and the level of immersion in KZ2 is just mind blowing.

As I said Brink looks good but it's going to take a lot of effort for the developers of Brink to bring KZ2 to it's knees.

[TwistedMetal]

I agree KZ2 wasnt just a graphics masterpiece but a technical one as well. Destructable environments, the particle effects from gernades, the lighting and wind. the realistic ai that stomps any console shooters ai into the ground although U2 ai was almost as good but they different games. KZ2 was just insanely imersive with everything happening on screen. Brink looks more like bioshock with a little bit of Kz2 textures. The character models look weird. The game might be cool and all but right now its not on Kz2 lvl. hip hop I love your show but I think you should of at least put a question mark on that one and left it up for speculation untill the final product releases.
edit:
guys watch the video and you will see he respectable abut it so dont fet to crazy but I still dont agree. also shinobi on ps2 was hard for me lol. I couldnt beat that buda boss thing.... im trying bayonett demo now though.

[Ju]

..and smoke/dust (from debris). So much at times, that you need to adjust the gameplay because you simply can't see where you're going/shooting or it allows you to "sneak-up"/hide in smoke. Especially in elite mode. If you try to find someone in a cloud of smoke you're already dead.

[PimplePopperMD]

This guy is such a fool. KZ2 graphics arent good.

[iceman06]

Neither is this SAD attempt at trolling!!!

[peeps]

never heard of this brink game lol but just watched a video for the first time and damn the game certainly has the looks. character models arn't all there though but terrific detail in the scenery. one to watch i think + will be interesting to see how splash damage do, i only remember them from the days of wolfenstein:ET (which i played to death)

[aliens]

I agree. Brink looks better than Killzone 2.

Now the Sony fans are going to cry.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

So because You agree it looks better that means we're gonna cry? that makes no sense whatsoever.

[aliens]

Heavy Rain will be a flop.

[Aquarius]

let us hope HALO REACH gets rushed to the market ( unlike HALO ODLC although finished, which got delayed LMAO because you know why )

We don't want you crying when M$ drops support of your beloved console because the PS3 will be owning the 360 in sales throughout the whole of next year.

@below that comment sounds so null. Changing the topic for what reason. I can turn around and say the same thing. How are you going to prove that?

I am a idiot?
lol how ironic
You are not a gamer, you are a freak.

Do you know the meaning of is? Heavy Rain has not been released yet. We're speaking about the present here fool.

EDIT: Nice stealth edit there dumbass, you shouldn't have put a full stop becuase that was actually a phrase. You should have put an ellipsis...you failed yet again.

"Heavy Rain is a flop."

[Bodyboarder_VGamer]

Didn't Uncharted 2 already surpass Killzone 2 graphically?

[SilverSlug]

Heard nothing about Shinobi. Something I always talk about alot is how underrated Shinobi is.

If they bring it back, FFFFFFFFFFfffffffffya.

[Zeal0t]

I love KZ2 because the visuals and the gameplay are just amazing BUT i honestly hope brink will have better visuals, why?
1. I'm a gfx whore :D
2. KZ2 shouldn't be the limit in terms of visuals although its just beautiful.
3. If they manage to surpass KZ2, you can be sure KZ3 will surpass Brink as well!

That's the way it goes and i like it!

Note: Gameplay, artstyle and atmosphere are also very important.

[Stationfan]

So when is brink coming out, it looks promising hope it delivers

"Shinobi Announcement Coming Next Year"

you have ball of crystal huh..

[Agheil]

i know u want get on the good side of xbox gamers but u cant say that brink ( that looks like borderlands) is better looking then killzone 2, which i still end up saying wow every-time i play it.

[ZombieAutopsy]

Who knows maybe when Brink is finished it will match kz2 (doubt it) but you cant say from that little video of gameplay it looks better because it doesnt...just more colorful.

But i do hope you are right about Shinobi, been wanting to play another one for so long.

[DonCorneo]

i've been saying that. mw2's graphics looks last-gen next to kz2 but because the environment are coloful/more vivid it's getting higher marks for graphics.

a gray-themed game just doesn't cut it anymore. look at uncharted 2 - it has everything.

[Aquarius]

It will be like the jump from U1 to U2.

[Myth-Psn]

Why does every game have to be compared to killzone 2?Yes, Brink *May* surpass it, but lets not forget pre-release trailers for games always give little touch ups, and lead to minor let downs.Killzone 2 came out what, half a year ago?, Brink isn't even out yet, and the trailer is for the pc version,And lets not forget that for it to look nearly as good as it appears in the trailer/footage you will have to pay an arm and a leg for decent pc rig.You know, Nothing against the hip hop gamer, but it seems to me that he gathers up all the rumors of the week, and adds some of his speculative news and rumors.I mean i read a lott of this stuff being discussed through random forums throughout the week, like the statement about brink was used to flame the ps3. Also from the videos i have seen, to confirm, the 360 buttons appear because they were using a 360 contoller on a pc.And the framerate wasnt much to brag about <-_-> , Nor was the physics/animation.

[Myth-Psn]

http://www.youtube.com/watc... It doesnt match killzone 2 overall, and is running on pc, with low framerate, poor effects, and bad physics/animation. And the nothing in this game touches uncharted 2's level of graphics/physics and animation, Sorry guys, But hey, Maybe they can work miracles before the release ;).

[Ju]

Brink takes some inspiration from KZ2 (and others). This is pretty visible in those videos and it has been said before.

I'd say, go for it. I can be a KZ type game with a more "CoD/Halo" environment (that is a shiny, bright environment - well, before people think that's trolling - even UC2 takes that approach), which appeals to the masses.

For me personally, It am curious if a multi platform can compete in the performance level with an PS3 exclusive, which I think it won't (just pure performance level). Visual and artistically it looks fantastic. Certainly one of the few (well, there are quite some) AAA production values out there. Comes next year, we'll see how it'll match up on consoles.

[Ambivalent_]

@HHG; can any of your shows pass without flamebait "versus" topics.

But I guess sensationalism is just the way you deal with the lack of quality journalism.

[iceman06]

This is the way of the new journalistic world. With millions of blogs and tweets and all of these other ways to grab people's attention, news is in direct competition with other forms of entertainment. There was a paradigm shift that made real news second to tabloid journalism. You only need to look at the nightly news "teases" to see prime examples of that. HHG is just following the consistent and successful (unfortunately) mold that was forged by just about every news outlet known to man. Take it for what it is worth...sometimes entertaining (with some exclusive interviews), small nuggets of possible news, and the fluff and flame of the console wars (which just about EVERY gaming site falls prey to at one point or another).

I seriously doubt Brink will surpass KZ2 in overall presentation quality.KZ2 is an impressive piece of work,yet MGS4/MGO still boasts the best character models thus far and UC2 the most detailed and precise environments.KZ2 stands alone with it's lighting,sound and effects.

you people need to stop comparing Brink to KZ2

first off - Brink hasnt even been released. do you know how many games i seen screen shots and videos then when i actually play it on my HDTV it looks no where near what i was seeing.

2nd > KZ2 not only is a graphical power house but its the little effects and realism that makes it soo awesome. light shines through the smoke..how enemies react to the gun shots etc etc the list goes on and on. from the videos ive seen (i know the game isnt done) so far it feel more like a COD game in terms of gameplay and feel.

3rd - brink has more colors? KZ2 has a more grey tone to it because its WAR its not like halo where it has green pink yellow etc...if you look at KZ2 and brink and ask anyone which game looks like your in a warzone - hands down ppl would pick KZ2.

im not saying brink is garbage or anything...im just saying lets wait till its released. 360 fans seem like oooooo finally a game that we can compare to KZ2 lets say KZ2 sucks and compare..

just my 2 cents.

Real talk Hiphopgamer Brink doesn't even come close to KZ2 graphics. Peace and respect keep doing your thang though.

Don't see PS3 surpassing 360 in sales?????????????? Last week alone Ps3 outsold 360 by over 290,000 units. If this rate keeps up that's another Million cut out by the end of the year. God Of War, Final Fantasy 13, Gran Turismo, Last guardian possibly Agent, Final fantasy 14, motion Control Wand all due out next year and a possible $50 price drop in August 2010. PS3 might over take 360 by the end of 2010 let alone 2015. This isn't the old Sony of the Past they are going to be price competitive from here on out LoL. And HHG let's be honest me and you both know the only thing that has helped 360 was the price. Arcade model is $199 hundred bucks cheaper than PS3, 360 has the Call Of Duty Bundle and is still getting outsold by PS3 by a wide margin. 360 will have to cut the price $50 bucks just to remain competitive but they can't cut the price in the spring because they will run into a $50 price drop from PS3. It's literally no way they can win. And again, lets not even talk about the games. Europe and Japan alone, will push PS3 over 360- One PS3 gets the lead in Europe, it's game over...........

But I really doubt it. Killzone 2 is just so well done only Killzone 3 could surpass it.

The reason I like gamefly is because one for the most part if you put in ahead of time an have your game back in time for a new release you get it. An most important I return it when I feel like it for my flat rate. Renting on a timeline is something I can't do anymore.

need better proof than just e3 footage it was a tech demo not a full result wait till theres a demo for download to play at home on the consoles but as of right now this is all pc videos to me i'd have see a guy with a brink demo in cd form in his hand put it in the console ps3/360 turn it on and play then you might have something to prove but playing the game with a 360 conroller isnt enough evidence that the it was a 360 running it
