[Sevir04]

but as far as bungie making an exclusive.. 10 years from now, that option will be readily availible.

edit: wait it's HHG!

[hamoor]

how does he come up with these headlines???

[MiloGarret]

Easy, check me out yo, yo, yo, yo..........yo (getting into character)

Confirmed: FFXIIIvs going multiplat - 360 version comes in 2 DVD's

Wzup neow huh? ey yo yo, now you try, foo!

[cayal]

Well we know that's a lie.

Considering towns and open world, Final Fantasy Versus will be at least 4 DVDs.

[Lifendz]

He knows how to get our attention. It's a skill really. If editors around the country were half as good as HHG at creating an eye-grabbing headline the newspaper business would not be in such dire straits.

[MiloGarret]

@cayal: It was an example genius... And you would have clicked the link if it had that headline. Consider yourself a sucker.

Hmmmm, 22 disagrees, i think hhg left at least 10 of those.

[Lifendz]

I don't see Sony paying money for an exclusive unless it's a major major franchise, e.g. Grand Theft Auto. Why pay for something that: 1) is an unknown game and; 2) is being developed by a dev that hasn't shown it can handle the PS3?

Nah, if anything I expect Sony to have R* come out on stage and announce not only Agent but GTA5 as PS3 exclusive. That's the more likely scenario if Sony is paying for exclusives.

Matter of fact, Agent is already PS3 exclusive. Why spend more money? No. The big shocker at this years E3 will be MGS5. Yep, Metal Gear Solid 5. We'll get footage of Infamous 2, Agent, more on FFXIV, LBP2, Last Guardian, Man Furismo Jive, and the big shocker is Kojima coming out and announcing MGS5.

[T9X69]

Why in the hell would the announce MGS5 when they havn't shown anything from Metal Gear Rising? MGR will be at E3 this year, not MGS5.

[Dnied]

I'm pretty sure peace walker is to be treated as MGS5 Kojima he has said this himself did he not?

[gtamike]

I would enjoy the hip hop gamer show if it was in text form.

[Alex Kidd]

Atleast its got HHGS in the title so if you had've read it you would've known

[Shaman]

Whoa...this guy sounds like is is mentally sick.Dont get me wrong,if he likes to talk no prob but he really sounds like he needs some help.He has serious problem with obsession towards Sony,he is not into games at all,its like all he ever does is making stuff up in his mind...

[Britney Spears]

you mad he doesn't support a company that makes unreliable products.

[ChronoJoe]

Actually he goes either way. Some of his stuff is very 360 biased, depends on what he's headlining. In this case it's PS3 favourable.

Not that there's all that much to talk about on the 360s side though, they're much more open about future developments and as far as good games all that looks to be lined up is H3 and G3. Nothing particularly interesting.

[toaster]

.

[silkrevolver]

...we need to get a running list of all of the bs claims HHG has made that haven’t come true. Once the list reaches 300, we block his articles.

[Godmars290]

Another part of me says what the hell, might as well accept HHG and the part he plays in N4G culture.

As overreaching and inaccurate as he is...

[silkrevolver]

...I agree that it has become apart of N4G... albeit an extremely annoying part.... but a part nonetheless. I still think it would be fun to keep a running list... just to see how crazy his “news” is.

[horrorcaust]

300? In that case he would already be out of here. Seriously, all of these retarded articles should be categorized as spam...

[cereal_killa]

"oh really silkrevolver, first of all let's start with Insomniacs new IP, at first I was exaggering right now look who was right and who was wrong, don't bet against me homey"

OH WTF even a broken clock is right twice a day just because you get one thing right doesn't make up for the 50000000 things you get wrong Patcher has a better track record of being right than you and even thats just a pathetic as you the only reason your even on here is because your own site drones approve you every time you release your flame bait trash.

silkrevolver better watch you say about HHG you know what he said about anyone who tries to do anything to him a E3, God I hope to hell they don't let you into E3 because of that stupid video you made gonna make your credibility (what little you have) down the drain.

[Godmars290]

Noticing that Sony tends to put more of it into their products, while MS goes for advertising/hype.

Edit@disagrees:
MS paying 50~75 million for timed access to DLC, money that could have gone towards at lest one new IP if not three, all this crap surrounding Natal well before its even released, doesn't say as much.

[Godmars290]

Amazing that there are so many disagrees, but few examples of MS applying effort into creating new IPs. More often its more about timed exclusivity or reviving an older series from another console's library.

[theIMP]

Well Mars, seeing as how GTA4 sold more on 360 I would have to say it paid off, at least in that example. I do not disagree with the fact Sony does invest heavy in its games and it shows.

[PLAYWATCH]

And even if MS wanted to put that money into games instead they can't because they only have 2 or 3 internal studios which are busy creating their 1 or 2 games every 2 or 3 years. They have a lot of money but they can't seem to expand their game lineup due to lack of dev teams.

[Marquis_de_Sade]

I disagree, for the following reasons: Since the creation of the Xbox brand, MS HAS invested money into new IP's. I think people forget Sony have been in the console business almost twice as long as MS.

Forza
Halo
PGR
Gears of War
Mass Effect
Alan Wake
Fable
Rallisport Challenge
Top Spin
Crimson Skies
Crackdown
Amped
Kameo
Blue Dragon
Lost Odyssey
Jade Empire
MechAssault
Blinx
Viva Pinata

All of these games started off with either internal 1st party development or were published by MS Game Studios. Sure, it may not be as comprehensive as Sony's, but don't try and make out it's non-existent.

[LordMarius]

bloody fake, report plz

[UnSelf]

i get the feeling that if HHG was any of ya personal friends, or just a friend of a friend and hes in ur living room talking about the very same things he talks about in his videos, ya would be all ears.

EDIT: unless he had that wrestling belt on....then he would have to go

[theIMP]

LOL, really. I still don't get why he carries that stupid thing around. I would like to see Stone Cold come on the HHGS and take it from him.

[PCnPS3Gamer]

id like to see stone cold stunner his annoying ass. like hip hop and gaming should not be mixed its so annoying like i just want to here some gaming news and info not some black wannabe rapper dancing around the main point. i prefer some nerdy guy just standing theyre giving me the latest gaming scoop, not some moron that hypes the stupidiest things like that ps eyetoy fighting game looked like crap man id rather a new mortal combat game with game pad support. people dont get it the eye toy by its self blows for hardcore gamers if sony came out with natal id say its crap too...im not 7 years old like fuck off ms....

hip hop gamer im sorry but your everything thats wrong with gaming journalism u hype every single thing so u can get free shit and connections your just a little bitch to everybody....and you cant rap its painful, also rapping about video games is just pure lame anyways...

dane cook is hilarious but i wouldnt want him telling me gaming news and making a joke every second.....i want gaming news not some flamboyant bull shit

[poopface1]

ACTIVATION wouldnt let them. Ignore the 10 million + people who they are expecting to buy their games. Sony doesnt have enough money and wouldnt pay.

This new IP most likely wont sell nearly as much as halo 3, no matter how good it is. It would sell even less if it wasnt on 360 too.

If its not an FPS, I think it has no chance to sell nearly as much a halo, multiplatform or not. Bungia and activision KNOW THIS TOO. I guess HHG is too dense to figure it out.

I stick to facts and reasonable theories. Not crazy retarded speculation.

[TOO PAWNED]

Who the hell is "ACTIVATION " ? Buahahhahahahaha

[poopface1]

that just made me laugh really hard. At least it spelled something.

[MexicanAppleThief]

What the point reporting, this'll just get approved.

[TOO PAWNED]

When you have 10 accounts or 10 friends, no problem, no one can stop you.

[Jammy2211]

That he know puts HHGS in the title of these articles, as if you couldn't tell from the ridiculous, BS title.

[cliffbo]

hiphop. stop biting mate. i like your show (could do with a little less noise) but i'm British! lol.

[Dawn_Of_Ashes]

i wonder if in the next future hhg will say something true and credible. Not something who came out of his bs mind.
I cant wait to the day when he will say something really intelligent!
Its just ridiculous how this guy is an amazing ahole and will never gain credibility here but he still continue to put some link that most of ppl here dont care about because we all know that hhg isnt a reliable source.

[pixelsword]

What happened to this future?

[livewires]

I no a lot of people dont like his style but do you now how many things he predicts correctly.

When a lot of people heard recently that kz3 will have sestructable environments people were surprised well not if they listned to HHG months ago

[Mr Tretton]

LMAO, KZ2 had destructable enviroments. Seriously, only low IQ children like HHG. This is proven time and time again. Also, that's not even a 'prediction.' Sure he was given an inside scoop along with others, but that doesn't make him a good journalist, if you'd even call him that. He's also been completely wrong about so many things.

I'm telling you right now ya'll, KZ3 will have guns and explosions! You heard it here first, yo. T-Dawg, OUT.

[brew]

I got nothin' to do , so I might as well watch the hiphopgamershow. I hope it's good.

[SilverSlug]

People here should go and look at some softcore cosplay porn instead of looking at a show about gaming.

Let's see some popular gaming stories.
"360 games no longer using the Eco-Box?" oh...

Come on, watch the show then comment. You guys all called him on BS when he said Insomniac had a new IP. They announced it and everyone doesn't give him props? What about destructible environments in Killzone 3?

My response to the video's name, If Sony got an exclusive IP. It would be a big, big 1up for what they have been doing to them every E3. With Tekken, DMC and FF.

Haters.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

If he was white everyone would stop hating on him right?!

Bunch of dumbass racist fools.

[poopface1]

and is because they both usually say some complete BS speculation.

[Mr Tretton]

ULTIMATE_REVENGE, the only person being racist right now is you.

If he was white, I'd find him to be just as stupid.

1+ for poopface.

[MiloGarret]

I wonder how many accounts hhg has on n4g...

Anyway, both of the "predictions" you mention could have been made by ummm, anybody? Especially if you're making 100+ claims a month in an industry which is pretty predicatble. Seriously, a moderate ability to think rationally and you too can guess at least a couple of things to come.

Who knows, maybe he actually had the scoop, but in that case it sure is hard to differentiate it from the rest of shit that comes out that mans mouth.

[SilverSlug]

But see, 99% of the people here said "NAH THIS IS FAKE LOL HIP HOP GOT OWNED CUZ HE BULLSH*T!!!" Then he is right and its "OH MAN ANYONE CAN DO IT."

Really? Anyone? That is why everyone has popular sites like HHG? Come on. Stop hating. Half the time people claim he 'made predictions' he did not. Like this one, its just a subject to talk about.

As for how many accounts HHG has, I don't know. But check my history, I'm not some account made by anyone but me. Don't bring this nonsense, thinking that everyone that disagrees with you is some fake account.

I think the issue with everyone here is that they do not understand talking and giving their opinions about games. HHG gives his opinions about gaming industry and stuff he hears. What is wrong with that? Do I wish he was better with his titles? Yes. But people are acting like he was in charge of the holocaust.

This is entertainment. End of.

[Tommykrem]

He knows how to provoke. There's no weaker bet than Sony paying for (they rarely/never pay for exclusives) a Bungie exclusive. Bungie is under Activision! It'd be easier to buy Bungie in the first place!

Besides Bungie has stated that they're working on a multi-platform title, so this is far fedged as bets go. Hiphop gamer can do some good interviews since he is very direct, but that's about all he can do. That and wear a cap the wrong way.

[Sir_Ken_Kutaragi__]

I would 'LOVE' to see that!!! ;-D Not because of Bungie, just to see the ChavBots&ModBots faces!!! ;-D
(Ok you can't see peoples faces on the internet, but you know what i mean)

[Convas]

But I know that's not going to happen :-(

[theunleashed64]

if he doesn't want to show you his psn id then he doesn't have to
go insult someone else mind your own buissness.

[Meryl]

@clizz at least he has a ps3 unlike some trolls who pretend to have a ps3 and then bash on it on here.

Also worryingly I have lots of little disagree trolls following me around today stop disagreeing with me and get a life!!!

[asdf12]

I can relate to this guy.

Shits goin down homie.

[jack_burt0n]

Hip Hop the team your talking about that is working with bungie is called the ICE team and they do work with third parties and sony published IP.

I dont know any details but HHG seems as credible as any other source on N4G and I dont believe he is biased and at least he aint on a payroll of a company like pachter is.

hiphop>pachter no contest.

[Bodyboarder_VGamer]

At least HHG is a gamer, Pachter is just a tool...

[Mr Tretton]

At least Pachter has an education and can speak English.

[Brian5247]

The worst new addition to this generation of console gaming is not one game in particular, but the wretched, mind numbing show known as Hip Hop Gamer.

[scofios]

I'm not trying to defend him or so .
But if we are honest he wast te first one who told that bungie and Insomniac Games would go multiplatform .

[Eiffel]

Well that was the inevitable, both are independent. Basic fact really. Someone could tell me that it's going to rain in the future, inevitable.

[SilverSlug]

He only made the prediction for 2 studios and both studios did it. That is a 1 in a million shot. He never said the same sh*t about other 2nd party Sony studios.

[Eiffel]

And both in the past talked about their curiosity in going multiplatform. He basically took what was general knowledge and tried to turn it into a whole "Exclusive news that only I know, that I'm bringing to you, DA FANS!" Mhm.

[pixelsword]

Is Valve going multiplatform, and when?

[aaronisbla]

seriously hate on him if you want, but for fvcks sake, give credit where credit is due. Thats not some ordinary prediction like "sony is making another game"

[negrito211]

every single time is read the forums all everybody does is hate on HHG,i dont care but its annoying.all hes doing is showing his passion for games.and argue as much as you want but i have been watching his show for months now and a lot of the rumors or info that he got he has been right.theres to many racist people in this world and on this site.ya but i be if it was some white guy playing rock music etc you guys would be all over him and agreeing and everything.bottom line skin color is color and every single person talks different depending on where and how they were raised and if you disagree give me a reason
porque como decimos en mi pais papi ustedes roncan pero no hacen na

[Sylo]

Why do you have to go racial? Just because somebody doesn't like him, doesn't mean it's because of their skin color. There are plenty of white "journalists" out there that get hated on, and nobody screams, "Its because they're white!" Seriously, could you just accept the fact that maybe people just find him annoying because, well...he is?

Also, it's racist for you to assume that white people would like him if he played rock music.

[scofios]

I agree with bungie thats a given because why elsewould they wanna be independent again if its not for mulltieplatform , but insomniac never give any signs ,they always denied it when asked , they said they where comfortable with sony and have a good relation with them .

[Ripyealip]

he gives good news and he gives emotion. thats why i watch his show if people dont like him why do they come to this video. the haters = fans in disguise

[SpLinT]

why i do watch them? because they are misleading titles and i had no idea it was this clown . if i knew, i would never click them.

[Ripyealip]

well lets see right under the watch video is says hiphopgamershow.com+ and right beside the volume it says hiphop gamer Tv most importantly in the title it says HHGS

[pixelsword]

if you had no Idea that it was HHG with HIS INITIALS IN THE TITLE, you really need to learn how to comprehend what you read.

Well, you and about 1/2 of the commentators on this thread.

[aaronisbla]

week after week, i love it when someone claims they were tricked into watching his videos, it even has his initials in the title. Lol for fvcks sake stop lying to yourself when you use this excuse

[SpLinT]

i stopped watching the video when i heard "yo yo yo " lmao what a joke. someone needs to shoot this guy. Fake news titles misleading b*;lsh*t

[negrito211]

its a freakn title what else is he going to name it? almost every article here has misleading titles!!!?? so that excuse is old already.and on the bottom is has who submitted the the article.you guys are the dumb ones if you cant read under where it says watch video "hiphopgamershow.com +" you guys are just racist haters.and dont tell me the music you listen to the singers talk proper because rock music and metal is just yelling.i guess there to stupid to read and talk so they scream like babys and rap is slang who freakn cares videogames are videogames doing act like you dont understand him cause if you can add 2+2 then im sure you can figure out whats being said

[bigbomber]

just hope its not a shooter

[xg-ei8ht]

I'm not even into rap, but that sure was funny at the end,lol.

[Brklynty1]

To think someone actually brings in news on the gaming industry, and on a sunday afternoon too, and he gets bashed because "the title was misleading" or "hes only speakin pure BS".... what if Bungie found a loophole in the contract with Activision and at E3 they shock the world with a PS3 exclusive?. What then? Though many things he reported did not come to life, some things have, recent example, when Guerrilla said KZ3 will have destructive environments, first thing most of you said was "HHG was right" his sources feed him these things, things that can change overtime. And then in the title it clearly reads "HHGS" Dont BS and say you thought it meant "Harry Harley got stoned" if you dont like his show why bother then? Because most of the haters look forward to his shows thata why.

[Killzone3Helghast]

amg.. it's "hip hap gayma"

[fnitcorp123]

i like ur show but no one is even concern about what sony is bring to the table at e3 this site and all the fanboys know
MS natal will be the only thing on people lips , u should have been trying to find out whats up with natal and who got games for it and how will that work ,thats breaking news
sony isnt paying u hhg and they will be making software for ms apple and nintendo next gen

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

Thanks HHG for actually talking about REAL gaming news and not the same old bull sh1t speculation that we get on this site every single flippin day.

It's amazing how last Sunday HHG talked about The Getaway 3 and all of a sudden everyone on this site hates the game?

I've tried to understand why people hate him but it's all come down to one thing, race! You all hate him because his black just say it.

[negrito211]

yup your right to many people hate on him for nothing. i mean all of us want gaming news and he brings us news that nobody else does then everybody starts hating thats so stupid.if he hears something hes going to let us know anything wrong with that???!!! and ya if you dont like the show dont watch it.the same people post on here every week saying the same ol story.the more you guys hate the more people are gonna wanna no why and actually watch his show,by you guys hating its just making him try harder and more popular and he even has connections going to big studios etc so hes not going no where.and like it was mentioned bungie could have found a leakhole in the contract,with all the laws etc and when it comes to $$$$$$$ companys will do a lot of things and just cause you guys say no bungie will never this and that how do you guys no huh? your not the CEO nor do you even work for the company

PEOPLE HATE ON SOMEONE CAUSE THEY HAVE SOMETHING YOU DONT....

[Zerodin]

Put me in black face, and I'll do a much better show!

[skilllz]

hiphoplamer

[RELAX]

bungi dont now how to make next gen grapics, so leave it sony.
better juse on kill zone2 devlopers.

[ClosingRacer]

You do know Bungie made Haloe 3 running at 640P for artistic reasons( they said why a while back) and BTW sony did not make Killzone 2 and Sony has made a grand total of 0 games the publish and you know what publishers do spend the money to develop it nothing else and Killzone 2 looks crap... i played it about a month and just sold it back all it is graphicly is 3 different colors.. black,white,red...( very hard to do..)

[Fel08]

Why not just change the name to HHGBS (HipHop Gamer Bullshit Show)

[PSNsecrets]

well my title says it all and more i,v seen my review of alan wake and i,m not impressed with it at all this game does look good but it has the gameplay of MAX PAYNE & ALONE IN THE DARK all in one game AITD was good i liked it but this alan wake just doesn't push console sells at all what pushed the console sells for XBOT360 well of course everyone knows that answer HALO lol they may as well BURN alan wake in a FIRE PIT and start thinking of a new halo title instead of creating a game copy from older games in terms of pushing consoles if they want to push it forward let MS through money at CALL OF DUTY and more halo not building carbon copy's of games past. because thats what alan wake is a carbon copy of max payne and aitd.

[FanboyAttack]

The horsecrap never stops with the HipHopGamer. Watching these videos and interviews is like watching a train wreck. You don't want to watch, you know its gonna be absolutely horrible but to watch a grown man act like buffoon every week is getting to be quite entertaining. You could add more value to the show if maybe you did a little dance during the intro. Maybe a little running man, or cabbage patch accompanied by your "theme song", because lies and fabricated bullshit aren't nearly as entertaining as the stench of utter FAIL that each week's show brings.

[lochdoun]

Bungie will never do an exclusive for $ony.
In fact, they won't do an exclusive for anyone, they signed a multiplatform deal.
You mad $ony fanboys?
You mad?

[theunleashed64]

no one's mad i get to play bungie games on my system of choice (ps3) you 360 fan girls get play one insomniac game on your system of choice (360).

[wc326]

so another make up news from his ass.

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[Chapulin]

not enough time. Ima have to wait for Alan Wake.

[N4BmpS]

*SIGH* Unless Bungie is making another new IP I doubt that's gonna happen. If anything Sony would try to get it to be Timed exclusive.

[aaabbbccc4324]

i like hip hop gamer, he has a lot of common sense and is mostly right, i added him on psn but he never goes on

[ASSASSYN 36o]

I thought bungie said keep their name out your mouth.

[ClosingRacer]

I really think this guy is clueless as far as video games go... i have stopped watching this stuff for a while and this is absured.. Ps3 will never get a bungie exclusive game if any system would it would be the PC or xbox 360( MS still owns a stake in the company)
