Yeah some people think its still too expensive. the ps3 speaks for itself? what super games are there on it? a lot of people actually buy the thing just to use as a blu-ray player.

im not hating on the machine or nothing, but there are not as many appealing games to me on the console.

There are just as many if you only own that console. ;)

I dunno, games like Ratchet(though popular,not a system seller), and LittleBigPlanet (which i’ve played and think that it was wayyyy too overhyped…you can’t play that game for hours…) don’t really appeal to me. sure LBP is cute looking a stuff…but after playing that game for 30mins i think u get tired of it.

i know people who have ps3′s and they don’t have a ton of games.

i dunno what is going to work for Sony.. MGS4 wasnt a huge hit/mega seller(even though it was very highly regarded), and LBP didn’t sell as much as they would of expected.

Only for blu-ray eh. Yeah you are a misinformed fool. This is why people like psychofag should be executed. Ok listen little child because i know you’re an ignorant fuck. The PS3 has no games that appeal to you are as stupid as thinking the RROD is gone. As for blu-ray why would people be buying it just for that when you can get a stand alone player cheaper. And do some research look at ps3 only titles vs xbox only titles. I don’t care what you like i was only saying I don’t have to come on here and post things like “oh halo was ok and it red ringed my 360″ to look like i’m a game god to a bunch of geeks who have no life

well when you speak of my beloved MGS4 then you have a problem with me because it sold great on ps3 and moved a lot of systems that are considered too expensive for just one game kiddo, go take a chill pill.

Serious question, do you actually take anything to control these episodes of rage you have? Because if you do, it doesn’t seem to be working.

Relax man,

i never said that MGS4 was a bad game. by all means, its a really beautiful game, and its also pretty good.

im just saying that I was expecting it to sell wayyy more than 1.5 mil in the US…and what 4mil worldwide?

i thought it should of sold more thats all.

now relax!

serious question do you have a life other than spamming this site with your random one liners that are not funny. And trust me you could never upset me because i know for a fact you’re a loser and i’m not taking the piss mate. The other guy go play your games that interest you so much other than non ps3 system sellers.

I wouldn’t worry airdom, I think he was talking to me. :)

Oh and TEA, I think you’re already upset… about what, I don’t know, but emotionally stable people don’t rage at others like you do.

Airdom does have a point.

MGS4 is the best game I’ve ever played, hands down no questions.

And for a PS3 title, it has sold well at 4 – 5 million units.

But I think what he means is that it could have sold more if it was being a big game comapred to Halo or Gears of War when they sold like 7+ million units or thereabouts.

So, to quote a famous song:

Relax.

Airdom…. I think Gears of War 2 only sold 5 million worldwide, that’s pretty good for a very niche title on such a small userbase.

And by the way, the controls… I tried alternate 2 and then ended up going back to standard 1, they are actually really great once you get used to it.

Have to say, what I played in Leipzig impressed me far moe than the demo (music asides). I came away from GC really impressed and what I’d seen since looked great.

But the demo really didn’t show off the game for me. I’ll probably still pick it up but I’m having second thoughts about getting it straight away to be fair…

Was it that different? Or was it a different level?

congrats you do have a life, a pathetic one… and for the record i wasn’t talking to you but if stick your head out again at me it get cut off.

Now onto Dr. Phil while you’re posting your non important opinions on this site weekday and weekends (mega loser for that one) I’m usually doing things a million more times interesting (can’t tell you what B/C i wanna keep this post teen rated and no it doesn’t involve your kind of gay activities). I would have to be a fool to get upset officially by something you say because lets face it you’re a euro. That alone is reason enough but i’m very curious what back water country you are from in that land of misfits you call home.

To Johnny C the cost of the ps3 stopped another solid million (no pun attended) from MGS4. Where as gears2 , a good game of course looked nice along a cheap ass xbox with no hard drive. I don’t know where you live but the economy isn’t exactly booming here in the states at the moment. I don’t know why people always have to bring up why MGS4 didn’t sell more than 5 million. To all you assholes, developers at least wish for a million to break evenly. So 4.5 million is great!. Also whats up with the LBP xbot haters. Hey hows Banjo doing? Lets see you build stuff and use it. LBP, you build stuff and you use it. So don’t go there with they are two different games.

Gotta say he creases me up, I now come everyday expecting (and getting) more comedy gold, it’s hilarious! Surely a plant…?

As for K2, was none too convinced after first playthrough but was just getting my head round it methinks. A few more and it’s definitely growing on me, just got to get yr head round teh different approach. Loks loveoly as well. Looking fwd to the full game…

p.s. Anyone else think there was something up with their ps3 or tele when the screen kept moving/shaking on menus etc…? Took me a while to realise it was the fabled sixaxis messing around. God knows why they added that, bizarre…

KZ2 is just awesome. For the people who have no life and say its short look between your legs then judge. Initial controls were playable the whole demo even after using controls from cod4. Graphics are great of course. A lot of pissed off xbots this month when they are stuck with halo wars thats for sure. and to the loser poster keep up the good work, maybe 247 will give you a job cleaning their toilets :) To everyone else enjoy the KZ2 demo.

Len: Initially a few people figured a plant… but if so it’s one hell of an effort to keep it going this long and avoid slipping out of character. :D

Ensemble Studios, have some respect.

I just feel sorry for them, they didn’t get an AoE send-off.

Yeah, Ensemble are cool, never diss Ensemble.

I got the Halo Wars demo at the weekend and I loved it.

Not a Day One buy but it will be picked up soon after.

Yeah, I totally agree.

Haven’t read GAF impressions on Halo Wars…. Nor impressions here.

But I do wish that they got to do an AoE as their sending off title.

@No_PUDing It was a different level. The thing I liked most about the game was how visceral it was. All that’s still there, but I’ve seen prettier levels in other footage and I found the gameplay in the demo section to be pretty meh. I was none too pleased when it ended so abruptly.

Perhaps I’m just less blown away initially having already seen it. I’m still getting it, just perhaps not day one now.

@Psychotext
Agreed but I’ve noticed a few slips myself…the odd british expression thrown in which seemed odd for an American to use in teh proper context.

Aah well, who cares it’s all good fun.

After playing the demo some more, my final word on it is…hefty… ;)
