"Also, anyone else find it amazing that Counter-Strike, a 10 year old game, is still pushing 114,000 units a month? "
It is amazing, but not suprising, quality sells. I'm sure people who have gotten 10 years out of halo online will tell you the same thing. Longevity >hype.
Hows mag going guys? *snigger*
I was female in both games. I always play as females, just adds to the escapism. If I play as a dude I'm thinking "what a fa99oty beard" or something because customisation blows, but as a chick, it is not a reflection of me in any way and I can just run with it. I don't customise too much I usually just pick the vanilla characters for the females PCs.
People make fun of guys who pick girl characters in games. I think it's the other way around. I am comfo...
lol, to think I was going to buy this.
Gaming is dead everyone.
Codemasters also said they liked the idea of releasing half games on disk and hald as DLC, that's right, the publicly announced their interest in halving game content...something tells me the game won't be half price at launch though. Besides, games are already half as long as they used to be, how much longer are people going to be willing to pay full RRP for 1/2, 1/4, 1/8th of a game. ...
@j-blaze
lol.
That has more to do with the hardware, UE3 is smooth as butter on PC, whether it is my new PC or old.
If I had to choose cryengine *2* or UE3 for a multiplat game I would choose UE3 because it is so well optimised that you could have a lot more going on, on screen and still have good performance.
@Orochi
How old are you?
Someone is awfully pissed that GT5 scored less than Forza 3 I see.
EDIT:
My sister is 27, and judging from your post, you are 12 or there abouts, so no I don't think you are.
EDIT2:
If you are 28 then your maturity level is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay below par. My point still stands, chicks don't dig guys who need babysitting.
"Last-gen damage modelling
Inferior car models"
That's funny because a lot of the GT5 reviews said that about it. *BAM* ( 100kph collision )...*slight low res dint in car door*

Let's not forget the bumper car damage model. I thought it was supposed to be the best around?

Bioshock, Dead Space, Half Life 2, some of the best stories/settings in gaming, let the narrative speak for itself, it is the exact opposite to what the author suggests. If you have to have some roid filled marine yelling out something worthy of a Downs Syndrome child to tell you what is happening in the story, then you know the game is weak sauce.
Silence is golden and all that jazz.
What about all the 360 games PS3 gamers were all over dissing them because they were anything but flawless.
Now PS3 gamers are pulling out the neutral card
"Doesn't stop me from enjoying it"
Apply that principle to 360 games and the levels of hypocrisy on this site will decrease to a more suitable level.
I've also noticed PS3 fans pulling the "doesn't matter it will still sell more than any 360 gam...
@VenomProject
Don't go pleading innocence, every single time a 360 game scores under a 9/10 PS3 gamers go around calling it a flop, Fable 3, Mass Effect 2, every time a review was less than a 9 PS3 fans would be all over it.
Now after months of cinema mode ( of whatever the F it is called ) bullshots we get the real picture, now all of a sudden PS3 gamers can't take a joke.
Lap it up big boy.

lol.
The little kid who bought the Wii I traded in for Fallout 3, Farcry 2 and Red Alert 3 will be devastated at this news.
lol. Don't get it confused. Ballet is prestigious. 'Urban' Dancing is about as prestigious as Rap...aka the bottom of the music food chain. Interviewing white people who pretend to be black in the back of a Britney spears clip is not the same thing as a professional Ballet dancer. Who by the way in order to make it in their profession would have to go to a performing arts university like Juilliard and do extremely well. A 'street' dancer on the other hand just has to get t...
Not laughing at the most immature thing I have ever seen does not make me humourless. See my avatar, that is Bill Hicks, an ACTUAL comedian. You see the thing with comedy is that you are supposed to laugh and think...people who laugh at fart jokes do not think, I am not one of those people.
You are a sad little man. Taking brand loyalty to the point where you revert to the intellect of a....actually I don't think I was ever immature enough to find fart jokes funny...wtf d...

Wow...you have problems.
Dancers are gay and so are Kinect gamers, who cares what either of them think.
@So you're a Kinect gamer...and you care what dancers think of it...that says a lot about Kinect's userbase tbh. If you are anything other than a <12 year old girl...then yeah, social re-adjustment is in order.
How does the author think the rest of the world feels about American accents, every god damn word is spoken as though through a megaphone. I hear an American in AUS and they are so loud and obnoxious I can pick them from a km away ( that's right, metric system bitches; get with it )
I also don't know anyone who speaks like an 'Aussie' I always get asked if I'm European. I would liken the 'movie' Australian accent to hard core Bronx style of speech,...

Sacred 2...innovative controls???????
There is like 3 spell slots, that is exactly what i'm talking about, on a keyboard you have 10 spell slots and more on the F1 keys etc.... ( + quickspells on right mouse click and TAB etc )
Sacred 2 was gimped as can be because of the console version.
@aMadMan
It's a website that consistently shows that PS3 has inferior multiplats, which make up 90% of both console's games library. I would be considering the value of a console that plays 90% of all games released on it worse than it's competitor, but that's just me.
@showtimefolks
I'm sure you have your reasons for not being interested in multiplats. I'm sure the fact that they perform and look worse on PS3 has noth...
