Naaah, console games would score too little.. Everyone would think GS was biased towards... Just a review idea I want opinions on.
not a dumb idea, but it would cause too much confusion and way too much fanboy bickering.

Just a review idea I want opinions on.
Don't you think it would be a good idea to have 2 reviews? An initial review (what we have now) and another review like 6 months later, just to see if the game stood up to their rating, and it would be better that hype for games dies down,patches etc.Now that updates and patches are a huge part of games, its not fair to review them how they were initially, because in some cases the games are like completely different after updates.And I cant help but feel that hype and other factors go into a game review....like i seems the overall opinion on Halo 3 is that it was overrated, from hardcore fans to people that barely played the previous games.....if it was reviewed again now, it would prob be different.Maybe a dumb idea but I just want opinions from other people.....if they did what I just said I just think it would be a lot better....there are tons of games that are rated really good, but just dont seem it and get boring after a while...the ratings for the most part would go way up or down....2 reviews would separate the truly really good games from the others.Dumb idea? Oh and by the way I know its impossible for this site at this point considering it seems hard enough for them to put out one review....Just a review idea I want opinions on.

Starcraft's races remind me of the curre ...
Protoss = PS3. The PS3 is expensive (like the protoss unit costs) and reliable/sturdy (protoss's shield) with little games (due to the cost of protoss units, it usually has the least number of units).Terran = Xbox360. 360 has serious hardware problems (imagine your terran buildings on fire) but has good games (terran units are efficient and powerful).Zerg = Wii. Wii is the underdog this gen (zergs are the underdogs) and everyone not owning the wii are irritated at their overwhelming sales and shovelware (mass production speed and the largest number of units). The wii is also the cheapest this gen (zerg units are the cheapest to produce) Starcraft's races remind me of the curre ...

IF Microsoft supported Digital Distribut ...
Then why did they spend millions supporting hd dvd and why make sure 360 HDD aren't upgradable and also why were they in talks with sony about blu ray if they knew DD would win? First off i think sony didn't want them to get blu ray just yet so they would be less competetive and also i think MS is too prideful to admit they lost the format war. We all know DD is the future but it's the distant future and sony knows this as they said ps4 would be disc-less and i'm sure nintendo will be the same. The fact is we don't have the broadband speed yet and we have to wait till TB hard drives become the norm, eveyone knows DD is the future but it's the distant future and i'm sure Sony, nintendo and MS are ready for it but with this generation MS lost out cause i'm sure sony won't let them have blu ray just yet, maybe in future and cause hd dvd is dead MS's only way of getting hd movies across is through downloads which most people don't want and it doesn't support full 1080p, i'm sure behind closed doors MS are really nervous on what to do and how to compete with blu ray. I for one am fully behind DD but not till the distant future so this generation i think i'm with nearly everyone else, dvds/blu ray. IF Microsoft supported Digital Distribut ...
For starters its not up to Sony its up to the Blu-ray group and if ms wants blu-ray they will get it. IF Microsoft supported Digital Distribut ...

Because DD won't completely replace normal distribution for yet another 10 years because of insufficent broadband capacity for most households? DD is growing.. but the casual console gaming market isn't ready for it. (Not every 10 year old GTA playing kid can get ahold of a credit card) Console market is way too casual for DD in the near future.

Rehash old ideas and claim to be innovative with more hype and better commercial groups.... a new graphic card, a larger harddrive, a new controller, and maybe a new disc driver.....
What I see happening with the new Nintendo system is that they will upgrade the graphics up to the point of the XBOX360/PS3's level of graphics. They will add a new gimicky controller. And continue as planned with the massive overload of mini games/shovelware and the same old zelda/mario games.
Seriously, though...A quad or octo-core processor isn't outside the realm of possibility. Intel plans a desktop octo by the end of '09, and the consoles aren't due until at least late 2010.2GB RAM should definitely be a minimum. By 2010, 4GB would be preferable and probably quite affordable.4x BluRay will probably be standard across all platforms, which should alleviate transfer rate concerns (a 4x BluRay would be faster than just about any DVD drive).As for the GPU...well, a lot of that will depend on the nVidia and ATI/AMD. Their constant one-upmanship will keep the waters there quite muddy.With digital distribution an increasing presence, internal hard drives should be standard: preferably ones with a capacity of at least 320 or even 500GB. To alleviate concerns of space and backup, the ability to offload game data to external hard drives should be allowed. Concerns about transfers and so on can be addressed with the same DRM techniques used in iTunes and Steam.

Concerns about transfers and so on can be addressed with the same DRM techniques used in iTunes and Steam.
I don't like the Wii... but I'm a just a ...
As long as Nintendo continues to succeed at positioning itself as family oriented and fun, it'll continue to sell a half a million a month or more. They've tapped into a segment of the population that does not game in general. That's the secret of their success this gen, and they've played that angle beautifully. I would consider myself a gamer at heart and being one, Nintendo already has me in their pocket as one who will buy it for just a game or two. I'm not the one they're aiming for... it's people who don't game daily and who haven't owned consoles before they have their sights set on.
Cases in point: my sister, mother in law, two sisters in law, and two brothers all sought out Wii's within the last six months. That wouldn't be so strange if it weren't for the fact every single one of them hates video games. I don't mean just dislikes them, but HATES video games. They claim they are worthless, meaningless, pointless wastes of time. (Especially when it comes to anything on the PC, 360, or PS3.) yet for some reason each of them had to have the Wii.
Why? Because to them it's a physical experience, not just a video game.
Before I go any further, let me say that I am no friend of the Wii. In my view, many of it's games are gimmicky, under-developed, and they just don't have enough to offer me personally. I have a Wii, but it's because of Mario Galaxy and Trauma Center mainly, otherwise it just sits there.
That being said, I feel the main draw to the Wii for non-gamers is the idea of interacting directly with the game through motions you're already used to (Wii Sports and Wii Play namely) and they are largely uncomplicated to play as well. That fact, plus only a few buttons on a controller that's unintimidating to use to say the least make for a compelling platform.
Call it a fad, call it what you want, but it's beating the snot out of both the 360 and PS3 every month. If they keep the non-gamers buying it, count on the next gen consoles from all three companies to be ''family-oriented'' and less hardcore than this gen. MS is already trying to position itself that way, with limited success, and Sony will follow suit as well. Count on it. I don't like the Wii... but I'm a just a ...

True. The hardcore Nintendo fans will always buy it for the 1st party. With the broad appeal they are sorted without having to compete for the same audience as 360 and PS3. Brilliant move from Nintendo.

i bought it for the excellent and great new controls and the first party games. any thrd party games that have good quality are welcome too...
Well so far imho one of the few things that's changed with Nintendo this gen (as far as consoles are concerned) are the sales. Gamewise, the library looks no more robust than the gamecube of last gen; I just don't see the growing 3rd party support. It's still a first party system.

I agree, but the wii is priced well. I bought one of craigs list for 220.00 just for smg. I bought ssmb but dont see what the hype is all about. Out of all my systems I have played the wii the least. The only play my ps3 gets is from bluray movies. Im not complaining because bluray rocks!!!!!
I agree with what TC had said, but furthermore, I'd like to add my views on why I actually have serious problems with the Wii.In another thread a Wii defender used a line similar to ''Serious gaming console? Isnt that an oxymoron ?''That is a perfect reflection of the majority Wii system buyer. They dont see gaming as serious, and they dont veiw gaming as a top tier form of entertainment, like film, books and music.The Wii has done even more to enforce this veiw among non-gamers. The Wii is the very definition of why people frown on gamers like myself, for whom gaming is there top entertainment outlet. I play games more then I watch movies, TV or buy CD's.Gaming has come so far in the last 15-20 years or so. Gaming is leading the way in cutting edge technology, personal entertainment interactivity, storytelling, and with even consoles now online, group interactivity.The Wii is going completely against all the progress that games have made. And its enforcing the ''games are second rate entertainment'' stereotype, and has the potential to do serious harm to the industry as a whole.The Wii is bad for gaming, and gamers. Its a devolution, not an evolution.

MGS4 Confirmed 50GB Blu-ray
In a Konami retailers meeting yesterday, it was exposed that the game would be produced on a 50GB Blu-ray disc.
Ryan Patyon announced on the Kojima Report Podcast that US/European copies of MGS4 would not contain a Japanese voiceover and visa versa:
Unfortunately because of disc space, we don't have the space to include other languages, other voice over files for the respective versions.
So the Japanese version's not gonna have English voiceover, and the North American and European versions won't have Japanese voiceover.
Many presumed that Kojima decided to go with a 25gb Blu-ray disc to save on costs, but it was yesterday revealed in a Konami retailers meeting that the game is the biggest of the series, and will be presented on a 50GB disc.
What's taking up so much space we can only imagine. There will be hours of high-quality surround sound, and perhaps HD movies even though previous series had cutscenes rendered in real-time. How much space is taken up by game assets is unknown, but the release of MGS4 might be the greatest production of double-layer Blu-ray discs in the formats short history.SOURCEMGS4 Confirmed 50GB Blu-ray
if it wasn't for all the uncompressed losless audio it would easily fit on one dvd9, maybe 2.MGS4 Confirmed 50GB Blu-ray
so much space for such a graphically crappy game? dayyyummmm, kojima probably has duplicated data to speed up the loading in the game...amirite?
Welcome to last months news!
This is super old but yeah cant wait for MGS4,might be the only game i buy for my PS3 this year.
so hopefully it will be longer than 10hrs
This is a good idea to max out a 50gb disc. One strong positive I can see is that it will severly hinder pirates. Imagine having to download a 50gb disc? Dear Lord.

:roll: You go ahead and keep thinking that...[/QUOTE]kolima has said it will use 7.1 losless audio which takes up a lot of space. that's fact. what else do you think they're using all the space for? good graphics can be done with little space, all the cut scenes are rendered in real time (cgi is what takes up a lot of apace), the game will be 10-15 hours (if that), so explain to me what is going to take up that much space.
[QUOTE=''onex19'']This is a good idea to max out a 50gb disc. One strong positive I can see is that it will severly hinder pirates. Imagine having to download a 50gb disc? Dear Lord. [/QUOTE]thats it? pirates? thats your main concern?all this talk, all this hype about b-ray, this game better get a 110 score or 11 or AA++, if not then whats the point in spending so much time and money just to fill a disk, I can't imagine developers going overboard just to make a game so they can boast that it will fill a B-ray disk, when the same developers can make a nice simple game on the DS and make just as much money.I have no doubt that this game will deliver, but just get the game done and stop with all the technical talk already.:D
It's true most of the space is audio but fanboys act like it's a bad thing :? it's irrelevant to the gaming experience its not like they cut out parts of the game for audio. They cut JP language big deal
