Console Wars: Iain Lee takes sides

You have to feel sorry for everyone that plumped for the PS3 over the 360. Not the Sony diehards that would buy a polished poo if it had the Sony logo on. No, I'm talking about those poor souls who were stood in Comets humming and hawing over which console to buy and plumped for the shiny black plastic thing that had a familiar name.

''Hit the message boards to respond to Iain Lee's console column

Iain Lee is employed on a freelance basis by Microsoft. The views in this column are those of the author and not of MSN or Microsoft.

Microsoft owns MSN UK and Xbox.''

there's a saying that goes:you don't bite the hand that feeds you.

decapitator5872d ago

Guy Employed by Microsoft picks the 360 over PS3..Holy sh1t am shocked. I will immediately pick up a 360 again after I had one crapped on because Lain Lee says so.

\sarcasm

Come now, really..REALLY this is just low on so many levels.

c-redz5872d ago

Iain Lee says the PS3 sucks because it used to cost £425 last year March when it was launched. The fact that it's now priced £299 with a game is irrelevant.

It also sucks because Blu-Ray is spelt without an 'e'.

It also sucks because it's a Sony product, the ones behind Betamax, in which for Iain the wounds of its demise still have not been healed.

And because it doesn't quite match the orgasmic sensation Xbox Live's "sublime, beautiful, wondrous, joyful online experience" gives him.

XboxKings.com must be hiring.

decapitator5872d ago

Thanks a lot. Was actually going to read the article. Shoot, you saved me a lot of time.

sonarus5872d ago

Stryfeno15872d ago

butterfinger5872d ago

iAmPS35872d ago

GUY IS A TOTAL RETARD!!!!!!!!!

I BET Nazisoft developed the new controller especially for this guy!

BeaArthur5872d ago (Edited 5872d ago )

Who is Lain Lee and why should I care about his opinion? It might as well be the opinion of Hana Montana.

Tales Of Graces Ƒ Retro Review – Holding Out For a Hero

Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil1d 4h ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai22h ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing698h ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle7h ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal7h ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

Abnor_Mal3h ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

dadavis199219h ago

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19898h ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

kevco338h ago

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
