MMOs can be done on a console but only if they lose the "We're going to be the next WoW!". Stop trying to capitalize on this market. They way a successful MMO can be done on a console if the One time start up fee of purchasing the game, coupled with two things. 1.Paid for expansion packs that add things to the game for those willing to shill the money. And 2. Microtransactions again for those willing to shill out the money. Horse Armor here we go. A subscription base pay struct...
And to make triple sure limit access by MAC addresses
I can tell you that if Ensemble had put the time in effort into making this a Game For Windows, then it would have been a buy for me. I know it probably wasn't their decision. Maybe if sales are poor enough the will realize that a port to PC was the way to go on this one.
It's an RTS on a console that always equals suck no matter what system it's for.
And I agree with P4KY. If they ever allowed for such support then it wouldn't suck so bad. But that is the main problem with the transition from PC to console is the lack of KB/Mouse. Which are a needed item when playing this genre of game.
No envy, I'm just not a fan. I've been tooling around Home for a couple of weeks now. Three Arcade Games, a handful of pool tables and 8 lanes of bowling isn't much to do. If your into people watching then I guess it's funny to see everyone flock to female avatars and dance in their face when they sit down. Is there potential? Sure I guess. But I might log into Home maybe once a week and kick around for 15 min. or so, when the full service is rolled out.
I thought Launches were a big thing for finished products, but hey you wanna hype an open beta of a virtual wasteland of nothing to do be my guest.
Site not letting me upload the screen capture. 13 seconds into the video there is an evacuation sign in the upper left of the screen,it states the city
Again how do you disagree with a fact?
How can you disagree with a fact?
Check the upper left corner.
In one of the city street clips by the evac sign it states, New Mombasa. So whatever it is it's set in the HALO universe
* Surfer Girl is NOT news
The writing was on the wall a long time ago. Both sides used dirty tactics to get their hardware in homes. Toshiba slashed their prices and offered boat loads of free movies. But what really ended the format war a year ago was the PS3. Sony used their Trojan Horse tactic to get a bigger install base then they would have with stand alone players. Blu is not needed in gaming at this point will it in the next few years yes. So this whole upset to the xbox 360 is absurd. Toshiba should hav...
They should know who they are. And if they don't then it's ignorance on their part. It's same people who call themselves gamers but want scream about why one console is better than another.
seen so many hypercritical scumbags as I do on this site. I mean really, most of the people saying so what are the same one's b1tchin about HD-DVD Paramount deal. It just show that the majority of the people with opinions on this site are incompetent. Myself included for coming back again and again to this fin site.
I used to play alot of Phantasy Star Online in it's dreamcast incarnation. When the started the subscription based play that was it. I hate dropping 50-60 dollars on a game and then another 10-15 a month to play. I know that WoW has been huge to say the least. But no thanks. I'd play if there was a reasonable yearly subscription. Perfect example of how not to do things is PSO & FF XI on the 360. I pay my 50 a year and then Sega and Square expect me to pay more per month. Don't thi...
I've played Supreme Commander on the PC, It's nothing special.
All it is, is a super hyped up Total Annilalation, with flash needless graphics. With out Keyboard and mouse support RTS' on a console should be a crime punishable by death.
that nobody can take the greatness of the Jaguar Alien Vs. Predator, and adapt it into a great next gen title. Come on already. If the Jaguar version had multiplayer it would put it above it's already high pedestal of Best AvP game there is! Come on Dev's, LOOK, LISTEN, and LEARN!!!!
Is why Dedicated servers suck. Yes you get a better spped but your at the mercy of the owner of the server.
It's LITTLE Bow Wow. You forgot the Little! Because he loves being called Little Bow Wow, now that he's all grown up.
