Props to Crash Team Racing - I accidently discovered that game and was pleasantly surprised.
Anyone else remember demon crest? That game was the shiznit. You could choose between a handful of gargoyles each with their own unique superpower, it was kinda like Castlevania mixed w/ Zelda. Pure awesome.
Lets not fool ourselves here, Gears has never been about story. The only reason it was greenlit for a film adaptation is because Gears1+2 have sold almost 10million games.
Its the same for Halo. Can anyone actually tell me the significance of the Halo? Why not make it a giant twinkee? I just don't see how that lends itself to the overall theme of the story, which, to be honest, is non-existent. MasterCheif himself is the most generic protagonist ever, and the settings were so ...
Does anyone really think Valve would be releasing DLC for L4D this close to the release of L4D2 if it wasn't for the negative response it got initially?
I am a skeptic when it comes for L4D2, I can not help but think since this is Valve's only game slated for release this year they almost had to price it at full retail value. I also think they could have easily added this content to L4D1 via update.
They are doing amazing things w/ DLC these days. I would much r...
The next installment of GTA is called AGENT, and its a PS3 exclusive.
yeah, but Uncharted has the online factor going for it.
The whole hacknslash genre is becoming a little overcrowded anyways - Castlevania, Bayonetta, Brutal Legend, and GoW3.
Windows 7 is on the horizon, I'm sure they found plenty of features to steal from Mac OS!
Its like MS just doesn't get it, or maybe they just have a low opinion of their clientel. People can only justify buying a new version of the same software every year for so long.
It totally does look like it was downgraded. One can't help but wonder if this was due to the 360, the earlier screenshot was taken from when it was PS3 exclusive, which, by the way, is the lead platform. My geuss is that the second screenshot is a 360 build.
You'd be hardpressed to argue that Sony doesn't have momentum on their side this holiday season. I really don't see the 360 releasing anything that stacks up to U2. The PS3 could easily become this holidays hot ticket, especially if they announce a price cut/redesign and release GT5.
Halo 3 wasn't even worth the price. If there is one game that has that been there done that feeling, it is Halo. And if ODST isn't an expansion pack, then why is it that MS were treating it like one? At first they said they weren't going to price it at 60.00$, then I geuss they forgot they don't have a lineup this winter.
Halo ODST = RENTAL.
As far as Forza2 goes, I find it sad that MS had to bundle it w/ 360s just to get 4million sales. GT:Prologue almost got th...
Honestly though, I think the 360 deserves a spot on this list. It might not be a flop in terms of popularity but reliability is a totally different story. 360 failures are so common there is an underground market for repairing them. You can most likely find someone willing to fix your 360 somewhere in your area if you look on craig's list. Now if 360's are not unreliable, I don't know what is. And unreliable is the last thing an electronic device should be.
I love it when peopl...
Sony has argueably one of the best lineups the ps3 will ever have on the horizon, GT5, GoW3, and U2. What better way to push software sells?
This is all in response to one person's opinion, who was obviously misguided. People are overreacting and pretending like this one person's opinion is the general consensus.
In a way, these overreacting people are just as guilty, for blowing this topic out of proportion.
Yeah, the world might be too sensitive, and when thousands of people respond so emotionally, that only reinforces the fact.
Beccause fanboys are that insecure, they can't enjoy a game unless they think that somebody else has something better - nevermind the fact that DVD9 is cutting the balls off yet another game.
Let the insecurity ensue.
GT Prologue sold almost as much as Forza 2, and Prologue wasn't even a full game!
GT2 sold 9.3 million verse Forza 2's 4 million, and Forza 2 was bundled with consoles!
Forza3 has like 1/2 the content of GT5 - GT5 is like the last racing game you need to own for awhile. That's why its called the definitive racing game.
I'll be laughing when FORZA3 comes out and they jew people on the Japanese Downhill again - have fun paying for your dlc.
Yeah, but how long will it take to download a game, thats the bigger question.
Don't forget about Shadow of the Colossus - Gullermo Del Toro is considering doing that after The Hobbit.
I think Sony has the right idea - if anyone they can produce the first successful game-film adaptation, its gotta be them.
Games like WoW, GeoW, and Halo on the other hand have weak cinematic qualities. If it wasn't for the fact that they sold millions they would never be considered for adapatations. I'm sure any week now we'll COD will get a green light, and...
And I can tell they've made alot of progress - especially w/ the textures and smoke effects. Hopefully it wont be like Gears, where the textures load 10sec later...
And the fact that 360 loyalists are finding excuses to hate on this game pleases me greatly, it tells me they must be doing something right.
Besides, true gears fans know part 1 was the best - it was the most balanced.
kinda makes you wonder if they were afraid to go head to head with assassin's creed...
Personally, I'm not expecting much from SC, what is this, like the 2nd or 3rd time its been delayed?
Yeah, hopefully they don't jew us on the Jap downhill this time, with so much content on this game its almost an insult to add DLC - it better be newly released cars or something. Like Sony said, adding DLC to GT5 would be like throwing water into the ocean. I think the same could be applied to this game.
GT4 was worth it for the dirt racing alone. I don't think this guy understands the concept of racing sims. If he didn't like that game than he better not pick up forza3, because its basically the same thing - a racing sim sequel with minor improvements and a bunch of content to make up for that.
Resistance 1 did kind of suck, thats why the sequel didn't sell 1/2 as much as the first one, but if you go through the game only using the first gun than you just don't know what your ...
