You need to check your brain. The guy who posted the article said it was a surprise, not Microsoft.
I havent seen MS touting a "surprise" anywhere else, because it isnt one, its just a nice little throw in with the whole package.
Actually Theonik i dont care if they were on PC or not. Im talking about 4-5 years ago, and i didnt have a good enough computer to run any of those. So your typical PC argument doesnt work there.
And also, to the other guy who is clueless(Ares), i intentionally DID NOT mention Star Wars games like Lego Star Wars, Bombard Racer, Starfighter, Clone Wars, Revenge of the Sith The Game, etc. because all those and many more were either pointed at kids or were pretty much crap. You ...
Im not sticking up for anything.
I have a Wii in my household, and i hate it. And im not getting Kinect unless someone gives it to me for free or no more than five dollars.
But, that doesnt mean Kinect will be bad for those who want motion-based gameplay. Some of you seem arrogant enough to think you know all about it already though, which is entertaining.
Xbox had a more than solid line-up last gen.
It had all the best Star Wars games, whereas PS2 had nearly zilch as far as Star Wars goes.
Xbox:
-KotOR
-KotOR 2
-Republic Commando
-Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
-Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
-Battlefront
-Battlefront 2
PS2:
-Battlefront
-Battlefront 2
-Bounty Hunter
Then the Original Xbo...
So all of you have played with Kinect then right? You know that this is review is full of shit without a shred of doubt?
Damn. Jedi Precogs litter this site. I can smell the piss and vinegar of angry fanboys from tabs away.
Most games on the 360 including Halo allow you to sign in with two full accounts, im not really sure why its such an issue on the PS3. I cant really think of a reason why the PS3 version of some games wouldnt have it too.
is that the Eyetoy never worked well, at all.
"Have Star Wars games ever managed to encapsulate the very aspect that gave Star Wars a cult following in the first place? Sadly I cannot say they have and I had high hopes riding on this one, albeit early days."
Im pretty much 120% percent sure that this guy has never played Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, a game released in 2003 with a story that is just as good, if not better, than the Star Wars movies themselves.
You dont exactly make a good argument.
MW2 came out more than two years after Halo 3. I would like to think that a two year old game will take a dent for a newly released COD game, just like every X60/PS3 game does every time a COD game is released. But if you care to look at activity charts for the months following MW2's release, the numbers bumped back up considerably for Halo 3.
Also, i would also like to think that Metacritic is not the "end all ...
Actually, yes. Halo Reach was made with so much lasting value and so much genuine support from the developers that it will keep fans busy for years after its release. That is bang for your buck. That is quality.
Its no wonder people on this site rave about playing so many PS3 exclusives a year, those things only last a couple months before youre bored and you want something else. Sorry but its true.
The problem is that when Bayonetta was releasing, no one could except the fact that it was scoring 9's and higher.
Then when GoW3 came out, the majority of people on this site bashed Bayonetta, saying it only achieved good reviews because of the hype and that they have the better hack n' slash.
Now the creator of GoW is even saying that Bayonetta requires much more technique and skill to play than GoW. Saying things like "Blows the doors off of G...
i'll give ya that.
It would be much easier to watch if this bastard would hold the camera steady.
No, no its not.
There are plenty of amazing games that would fail miserably if they were to be an MMO.
Actually, Halo 3 was very faithful to the novel Fall of Reach.
Many, many times Cortana will almost directly quote the novel. The beginning dialog that Cortana speaks as the Master Chief crash lands is not a direct quote but references certain elements from the novel.
As you play through the story, Cortana will randomly pop up on your screen and say things like "You will be the defender of Earth and all of her colonies.", which is a direct quote fr...
Jack Thompson: "Sure, i win again, as usual."
I pretty sure that i win every single time i load up Halo/Read Dead Redemption/Battlefield BC2/etc and kill the living hell out of everything i see and enjoy every bit of its gratuitous violence.
And, i will win again when i play Medal of Honor and play as men dressed in Taliban-like garbs, wielding Taliban-like weapons, in a Taliban infested location, and probably hear from random in-game dialog the sam...
This isnt fatal. Its been like this since Halo 2.
Trust me, there is still plenty, and i do mean plenty of fun to be had in Bungie's Matchmaking system. It does suck when your teammates quit, but it doesnt happen that often. Normally if it does happen, only one or two guys quit at a time and if your a good player it wont make too much difference unless you are left alone.
They are ALL multi-million dollar businesses and they are ALL in it for YOUR money. Dont think that this is some kind of good vs evil fantasy, its an industry and you'll realize that when you get older.
If Sony could own the entire gaming industry, they would. Sony are already money grabbing whores with their subsidiary film company, Columbia Pictures. They are just less obvious about it with their games division. Just a couple examples are how they ruined Spiderman 3 bec...
some people might not think that talking to their friends is a big deal, but i do. Every time i bring it up i get bashed with "whod wanna talk while they play games anyways?" comments. But of course thats only on N4G.
Anyone who says that they dont want cross game chat is not being realistic. Every night, and i mean every single night that i sign into XBL, there are friends who want to talk to me about their day, work, etc. and none of us would want to sign out of o...
