Bioshock rules.

Maybe Red Steel 2 will use this periph (I certainly hope so... It'd give me more satisfaction with my purchase of a Wii... I've kinda been regretting it, due to the fact that the only games that have interested me so far are Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes, and SSB:B. Madworld looks okay, though. I just believe that buying a console for 4 games is somewhat a waste of money (I thought there'd be more games that interested me, like Project HAMMER (cancelled), Red Steel (not good), and a few others, but so far, I've been mistaken. And I'll be damned if I ever pick up any shit like Cooking Mama... That is not a fucking game.)...

I'm downloading the demo now.

This article (on Kotaku), on the other hand, seems to be a bit... out of place. I expect fanboyish articles like this one on Gametrailers.com, but I thought that they would not be present here... Let's not make it a habit, k?

To the people complaining: That is why you are allowed to skip them. If you don't want to miss the story but feel like skipping, that is why we have internet. You'll be OK.

I find that it is a very fun game. Sure, it doesn't have the best graphics out there (but they are far from terrible). Sure, the dialogue occasionally annoys (but truly, it only annoys when you get stuck somewhere, as when moving they don't seem to talk as much). Does that make it a bad game? No.

IMO, it deserves at least a 7 (I'm rolling with an 8, but that's just my opinion).

Luckily for PS3 owners, the rate is less than 2%. And luckily for 360 owners, there is a 3 year warranty.

Both companies go about doing things in different ways. While Sony released a generally reliable piece of hardware, they gave it only a 1 year warranty (for that exact reason... it is generally reliable), whereas MS released an unreliable machine and extended the warranty instead of fixing the problem. Personally, I'd just as soon never deal with MS's customer service (you'd think it would be better with all of the practice they're getting), so I prefer Sony's method.

I'm sorry to hear about your inconvenience. Hopefully you get it back in a timely fashion.

I call this PR failure.

Actually, you said (And I quote:) the games are "Overhyped and going to be gimmicky at best." and "Look girls, I just said that I bet both games would suck balls compared to COD4." Do you have some kind of short term memory loss??? Or are you just stupid? By the way, I am 17 (and it sure looks like you are dumber than me, not to be... never mind, I'm trying to be offensive. You are acting like a dumbass).

On the subject of maps: in Resistance 1, maps were made for differing numbers of characters (note: some maps/gametypes placed limits). Why assume that it won't happen in R2? You assume that there will be no small maps. That is stupid, sir. As difficult as it may be, you ASSUME (note that word) that it will all suck. As Insomniac did it right with R1, why assume the worst? Is it because you HOPE that it will suck???

Why not mention all of the games that were IMPROVED by their engines, you fanboyish prick? Because certain games got worse with new engines, ALL GAMES DO! Logic FTW! Jesus, are you really that dumb, or are you just trying to be a dick???

Oh, and because of that, homernoy: KZ2 and R2 have the potential to suck. It's the truth. I doubt it, but there it is.

balls187++: Shut the f*ck up. You haven't played the game, you are not the master of all things KZ2/R2, you don't know any more about them than we do. Why try to pretend that you do? Who knows, they may end up being better than CoD4! WE DON'T KNOW YET. You act as if you already know that it won't add anything to the franchise simply because you want to believe it... you have no evidence to support your claim, while others have plenty of evidence to support their claims that it will be better than R1 (and will possibly be ground-breaking). Would you like to hear some of it? Here you go:
R2 will have a more advanced engine than R1.
R2 will most likely have an increased number of available weapons (if one looks at Insomniac's track record, I believe that it is a pretty safe bet)
R2 will support 60 player, squad based online play (that beats the crap out of any console shooter so far, doesn't it? I'd call that groundbreaking)
R2 will also support 8 player class-based online co-op (see above parenthesis)
R2 will contain 2 complete (and separate) story modes, with partially randomized environments (in the online co-op)
R2 will utilize a level-up system (similar to the game that you praise so highly, CoD4 (which is awesome BTW))

What was it that makes it mediocre???

The same goes for KZ2. You don't know yet, and that video most definitely didn't do it justice (too little gameplay, HORRIBLE quality).

This piece is either very biased or horribly written. It seems like the writer blames Sony for this mess (and also makes it seem as if the problem is only on Sony's console). Also, the title (and therefore the underlying claim) is just insipid. How are sporadic failures (you see, not MASS FAILURES or WIDESPREAD, ACROSS THE BOARD failures) at all comparable to the 360's massive (and entirely unacceptable) failure rate???

Answer me that. And Brian, shame on you. Reading comprehension on YOUR PART may be absent, but as the grand majority of users on this site have come to the same conclusion, I assume that the problem is with the writing, not US.

This lock-up is not only a problem due to Sony's actions but also due to Rockstar's programming. As Sony's console doesn't do this with any other game (to my knowledge), the blame rests mostly with R*... not Sony. Conversely, RRoD can happen at any time, while playing any game. Whether it occurs due to shoddy materials, bad design, or just because MS rushed the system into the market without due testing, it is one of the most embarrassing electronic failures that I have witnessed (in console gaming). It used to affect 1 out of every 3 consoles, and apparently now it affects 1 out of every 6 (around there is what I keep hearing about the Falcons...). The blame rests solely with MS and can happen to every 360 owner, and therefore it is a much more vexing problem.

Seriously. How could that be at all related to God of War, a title without guns or even the HINT of guns present at all in the game? God, people are stupid these days. I think I have officially lost all hope in humanity.

I'll probably still get it, though.

I would kill someone if they gave that to me.

I honestly hope that this is true, because then I will get to actually play Crysis (my PC is a piece of crap).
