Is going to be so great for PS3 owners. This, LBP, Bioshock, Home, Wipeout HD, all kindsa fun exclusive stuff.
First day purchase for this one of course.
And I will say it will not disappoint the majority of PS3 owners. Die-hard nitpickers, perhaps, can't please everyone. But overall the delays are very much worth it when compared to early shots and videos. The beta gives a very good idea of the foundation within and what can be done.
I want the US beta to get the NAMCO arcade like the Japanese version has :(
Like, officially live and everything! Go grab it by opening Folding.
Xbox 360 creates "limitations" for GTA IV
http://www.joystiq.com/2007...
Once you install the game on the PC, there is no swapping disks. Stop trying to somehow spin this into something positive when we all see the problem.
THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES.
Damage control for those new to PR and spin. The fatcs remain. The game was altered to meet the hindrances of the 360 and since they don't want to piss off MS, they kept it the same across the board instead of catering to each platforms strengths.
You can disagree all you want 360 owners, but the proof is coming very, very soon and Tim Willits will look like even more of a fool for backtracking on this.
I'll be getting it for PC anyhow if anything but it will still suck if it's been "console'd" like oh say Deus Ex 2 for example. God what a travesty. After DE1, that series had so much potential but they decided to make it for consoles and cater to their limitations.
I forgot the Live service has download caps. Does this mean the downloadable version of Burnout Paradise will be exclusive to the PSN Store? I wish Rock Band 2 was available for download, I'd grab it right now and that would be another feature the 360 just can't do.
The Live limitations, no HD in every console, the lack of Wifi, the overheating issues, using DVD storage.. How shortsighted were they when designing the 360? Were they really in that much of a hurry?
Somebody got a talking to due to the very bad PR this could cause and this is nothing but natural damage control. I don't think he fully understood the implications and firestorm his original comments would make (despite the truth within) and this is just playing friendly with MS to keep that relationship on an even keel.
The 360 still hinders PS3 multiplatform games, no doubt, and the exclusives are the proof in the pudding. There are no games on the 360 that look as good as...
And there's always that person that has wacky opinions like "I'd rather have a Big Mac than a fine steak" and you just look at them like, "You low standard having mf'er.." Sure.. Have your own opinion. Doesn't mean you've got good taste.
To be called a N***** or a F** on PSN. Happened every millisecond on Live. Like that was the game, who could insult each other the most and the fastest.
"Yah well, I buy my GAMING console to PLAY GAMES.."
Face it, the 360 is trying to be just as much a media hub as the PS3 is. Having Netflix and Sirius is cool, but if the PS3 gets Hulu, I'd be happy as hell. No extra fees for PSN and no fees for Hulu as opposed to fees + fees. Good movies and TV shows on Hulu also. Step to it, Sony and Hulu.
Another awesome EXCLUSIVE for the PS3. Day one purchase.
Calling the kettle black is all.
The 360 is a larger generational jump from the original XBOX than the PS3 is to the PS2, I can't help you buddy. You need to see a doc.
The original XBOX had:
- Live
- HD inside
- Dashboard capabilities as exhibited by homebrew
- Media playing capabilities.
- no internal wireless
- played DVD's
- no longer on the market
360?
- proprietary HD
- Better graphics and processing power.
- still plays DVD's
...
MS claimed the 360 would have internal liquid cooling solutions to keep the 360 running cooler than the original XBOX. How's that workin' for ya? Oh say what? They got rid of the liquid cooling at the 11th hour and now look at the mess it created. At least when Sony "lies" (laughable when talking about PR work), systems don't die for years straight.

"No trophy.. No buyyy"
No trophies in Pure vs trophies in Motorstorm PLUS is a better complete game than Pure is. I like the Pure demo and might get it eventually when it's $30-40 but no way would I pay $60 for it against Motorstorm 2.
Give it up. I know denial is a b!tch, but Bluray is here and it's going to last. Millions of PS3's on the market and it beating HDDVD to a pulp is going to be proof on that. Just as the PS2 helped push DVD's, the PS3 with it's trojan horse of a Bluray player will keep it on the market.
Oh and anyone remember when DVD's came out and there were these other fringe formats trying to get a foot in the door on the market? I think one was DivX even or something close.. Just stupid. ...
Resistance 1 never got as much love as it should have. The game looked great and had some cool stuff going on for a PS3 laucnh title. Resistance 2 is going to raise the bar and then some with it's single player and especially multiplayer and coop stuff.
