The various iterations of the 360 and PS3 had some flair. They may or may not have been ugly, as these things are certainly subjective, but you could tell the design teams at MS and Sony were doing...
This has been the core philosophy of Nintendo for decades and it's given them dominance of the handheld market, at least until people started playing games on their phones. They still rule the...
They are both ugly consoles. The lack of creativity is surprising. I guess the PS4 gets the edge for not being effing huge.
Agreed. I love my Lynx, but it does eat batteries (compared to the Gameboys and other non-backlit systems of the time). The Lynx II has much better battery life than the Lynx I, but six AAs for 6...
Consolized MVS seems the way to go; were I handy enough to do so myself, I certainly would. Seems like most people charge a lot for the trouble (especially ones with nice cases). That said, once...
If you can afford Neo Geo hardware and games, more power too you. Afraid they're too rich for my blood.
That's an awesome deal. I'll pick up something when I see a steal like that even if I'm on the bubble (and would have snatched up a deal like that). If I change my mind, I can always get my money...
I know WoW is still raking in cash, but I read that their subscriptions have started to decline. The game has had a great run, but I think it is on the downhill side. I think rolling out a...
I keep wondering why Blizzard doesn't make a Starcraft MMO. WoW seems to be dying out and they need to replace their cash cow with something. Starcraft seems a perfect fit with pre-built races and...
I have zero interest in online gaming as well when it comes to playing with strangers. I have a small group of friends that I will play with online occasionally if we can find a game that's...
I didn't say I couldn't afford it; I said I don't like paying for something I use sporadically. There's a difference.
That's the problem; I do use it, but only occasionally. I don't want to pay a regular fee for something I use sporadically.
In fairness, I don't think it's unreasonable to charge for online...
I didn't realize Sony would be charging for multiplayer on PS4. The chances of me buying one just diminished greatly. I realize most people don't mind paying for Xbox Live and it sounds like they...
I'm impressed by the $400 price point. Considering the power of the console, that's pretty darn good. And the lack of DRM is pretty encouraging. I'll be sitting on the fence for quite a while,...
Agreed that the library, although incredibly small, has a very high ratio of quality games. It can be fun to collect for if you keep its small library in mind (i.e. as a supplement to your handheld...
You're right in that PS3 and 360 are pretty equivalent. They lack any real character difference like the Genesis/Super Nintendo rivalry. That said, there are a couple of differences that swayed me...
How much is a "song"? I'm curious what you paid and how you acquired it...
The system itself is very cool; I had one back in the day. However, the library is extremely small and has pretty limited game types.
I've never liked the idea of steam (having your games tied to a service). I downloaded it when it became available for Mac, got a free game, and bought a really cheap one. Then deleted Steam. I...
To be sure, universal acclaim from the gaming press does not always equate to a good game. I've never understood the attraction to GTA games. GTA IV gets a ridiculously high average score on...
That last line made me laugh.
Letter to MS: "Dear Microsoft, could you please make the Xbox 1 not suck? Thanks. Signed, a concerned gamer."
I had little interest in the coming generation of game consoles, but one thing is certain. I will not be buying an Xbox 1. Ever.
I'd buy one of these if the games were more reasonably priced.
Funny how much negative response there is in this thread to a game that isn't even out yet. As for me, I liked the Uncharted games, and am looking forward to this one (when it comes down to $20,...
