  1. The motion sensing controller patent was filed before the Wii was released. So yeh, topic blunted. Why all this ignorant hating? They fixed the RRODs, there are heaps of games coming out, and there have been multiple price drops - at least one per region. 3 in Australia in the last 14 months.
  2. I say it shouldn't. You run the risk of failure with anything you buy... accepting that risk shouldn't have anything to do with the product itself and buying / not buying it. As Gavin said, the RROD is no reflection of the system or its games. Those are the things that matter.
  3. You can't give something with as sh!tty character models as GTA4 a 10/10. That should take a point off graphics at least, especially when there are such beautiful games out there. I don't care what kind of game it is- modeling like that in 2008 is unacceptable. Am I the only one who notices? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. GTA is ugly as. Always has been, and apparently always will be.
  4. When did 'DLC' get coined anyway? Everyone uses it, but a couple of years back I could have sworn it didn't exist, even though there has been 'downloadable content' around for yonks.
  5. Why should you be thinking about that in any case? That's what the warranty is for. The numbers are wildly exaggerated- no one I know, with launch or more recent 360 consoles has seen a Red Ring. If you bought a PS3 over a 360 solely because of all the scaremongering on the internet, well, I don't know what to tell you. Don't take it from the whining internet masses- judge the system's reliability for yourself.
  6. Hype, an enormous budget and mainstream appeal. Surprise, surprise. I'd put it at a solid 8 or so as well.
  7. Every Arcade and Pro with HDMI on the box have updated innards. Elites are uncertain but by now most likely they all do.
  8. SNK and shooter bosses are in their own class of BS. Other than that, I'd say Xan Kreigor from Unreal Tournament. I keep naming the guy whenever this question comes up, but damn is he a biatch on godlike. No matter how twitchy your crazy reflexes are, this guy will still own your ass. No exceptions.
  9. Sonic's sneakers were his thing. They're what stopped his feet from burning up when he ran really turbo fast. Tails and Knuckles have similar pairs themselves. Ok I've just proven I know too much about Sonic the Hedgehog.

  12. What are you talking about? That's Drake's drawing right therr.
  13. Just on the topic of porn and sticky controllers... doesn't the 360 come with the remote control for that very reason?? What were you thinking?
  14. The NTSC has been leaked as well. Your local pirates need to get with the times
  15. Well, maybe exclusive for 2 years than only ported to PS3 like the first one Sounds a bit like how they waited 2 years and ported Metal Gear Solid 2 to the Xbox. Yet people keep naming MGS4 as an exclusive.
  16. I was playing it last night at a friend's. What can I say.. it was what I expected it to be. That is to say that it's not sooo much better than the last 3 as to convert someone who's not a GTA fan, but seems like the standard hasn't been let down at all.
  17. Although I'm tempted to chalk it up to Kojima just not being able to deliver, he has a good point. If anyone at any time were going to invest the manpower into getting the most out of the PS3's hard-to-program-for hardware, it would be Konami for MGS4. If even they were unable to get what they wanted out the machine, that is really saying something.
  18. How many actually are better on the PS3 though? Out of all the multiplatform games out there only Burnout Paradise actually looks better on Sony's machine. Then if you were to factor in things like DLC, online communities etc, you'd find that those games are still better off on the 360. As for exclusives, there you have MGS4 and GT5. The 360 still has things like Gears of War 2 coming out, not to mention the slew of existing exclusive titles. Or that MGS4 might slip to the 360 sometime. Finally, devs complaining about the lack of space on the 360? It's a myth. The only 2 developers who have said 'maybe' to having to use multiple DVD-9s in the future are Rockstar and id. The Blu-ray thing is a curse if you ask me. Data has to be recycled, lengthy installs are becoming common, and loading is almost always longer. So yes, to put it bluntly, the PS3 is still failing. Even if it does pick up steam it will never win at online. Home got delayed again (surprise surprise) and the pings you get in things like CoD4 and UT3 are obscene. Then there are all those things like friends, cross-game chat, achievements... Honestly all I can think of to be glad about owning a PS3 is that you'll have Darth Vader in SC4. Even then he will probably pop up as DLC at some point. Speaking of DLC *points to GTA4*... but then that's a whole other issue.
  19. flock ADD losers. If they're violent, impatient or rude to you, you should go on and be violent, impatient and rude back to them. Honestly flock em. Spoilt brats.
  20. This has been discussed in another thread. Your news is old.
  21. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles OR Street Fighter Zero3^ Don't you dare make me choose.
  22. Do I smell an IT Crowd reference? Anyway, this game fails on every level. You could say its the Teen rating, the lineup, or whatever. I say that without John Tobias, Ed Boon wouldn't know a good video game from his own arsehole.
  23. Guess what? No court scenes. No court scenes in this series = epic fail. I'm at least hoping that new chick is a new Fey sister. Or maybe one of the ones we already know, just grown up and cool. Might make sense in a future setting where Edgeworth isn't technically a prosecutor anymore... would fit if we never go to court.
