ok charlie, thats the wind blowing not cars silly. you hear that thing that sounds like my ex wife? well, thats actually a big fat moose. i got you lined up. fire at will.
The batteries lasted forever because you had to put in like 18 at a time! Plus, if you think about it, Tetris couldn't have been that taxing on the system.:P Ah, how i miss my original Tetris Box.
therein lies another problem. who's going to take the time to pay attention, shoot or flag an advert in the middle of an intense gunfight. what's your excuse for leaving your squad behind? Oh sorry, "squad leader," i was taking a gander at this ad on this cool looking RPG.
it's an in game distraction. it is still far better than in-game spyware, but i can see many people complaining that they we're killed because they were attempting to flag an add. this might work in more passive gaming situations like a lobby of sorts or a major city in an MMO, but it falls on distracted eyes when in-game ads are placed in high action areas.
While i'm not a fan of in-game adverts, i won't call it outright greed. This seems like an easy way for them to generate revenue to contribute towards or add to the budget of a game. If someone else is paying for a portion of the game (through ads) maybe the people alotting budgets will be more lenient towards a more "risky" project.
The software developers might be able to concentrate a little more on actual gameplay and controls than wasting time putting realistic skin on a player model.
It's not about wasting so much time than it is wasting money. Games for the wii will require significantly lower budgets or the budget may be dispensed differently. what i think will happeb is that there will be less crunch time graphics-wise and it may allow the artists to come up with more unique designs. hopefully, this will get rid of the "hollywood glitz" some videogames suffer from and it will provide for some creative, more interesting titles.
Statistic-os! Contains %83.57 of your daily value of nutrients. Believed to be a part of a balance breakfast. May contain a high amount of vitamin C. Net Weight: 8 - 11oz. Projected servings per box: 15
Now, I wasn't fortunate enough to get my hands on a Wii, but I imagine there is a way to calibrate the thing right? I think I remember seeing someone mess with the options at the local Gamestop.
If you have an Xbox 360 and do not own/intend on owning this game. shoot yourself. The few flaws are passable because of the gripping gameplay. you'll have a blast with this game. if you somehow do not enjoy this game then go back to playing with your barbies.
It's unavoidable for a new console launch to have a few bugs. Looking back at nintendo's super high quality products in the past i was really hoping to see few problems, but i guess they're just as vulnerable considering their recent entry into online gaming.
I definately had this one thought out, by picking an inconspicuous target near home. However, i failed to get up at the right time.after oversleeping, i arrived at 7:30 5 minutes after the father/son combo in front of me. Prior to the 8AM opening they handed out 24 tickets (and three rserve spots in case someones card declined) and i ended up being Mr 25. i was pretty bummed, but overall not dissapointed at my near success. I waited in line for thirty minutes, almost got one and i lost it to a kid who had been saving up to buy the system for the past year. had i been in front of him i'd have given up my ticket anyway.
Snake Rattle and Roll anyone? This one brings back many memories. Me and my brother played this game for ever before we were able to finally beat it.
Goldeneye 64. This was truly the advent of console multiplayer.
My freinds girlfriend and the girl i'm currently talking to both like playing games. The games they choose are either RPGs or games with a higher aesthetic appeal (Okami, Shadow of the Colossus). While i do know that some female gamers like running and gunning, most of the female (non tomboyish) gamers would rather play the Sims. So if you know a girly girl interested in gaming give her smash bros. not Halo2.
just my 2 cents

In an obvious attempt to make competition gaming cooler they get, Quddus, an MTV VJ to host it.

Please remember that Japan is a much smaller country than the U.S. Just about everything they do (in the city) is done in high values. http://www.isop.ucla.edu/eas/japan/geography/japan -us-size.gif

What about average games sold per console sold? That to me would make more sense in determining the worst/best console launch.
i really agree with this list. kudos to you man!
i'll have to agree. the first thing that popped in my head was, "great, he invented crack cocaine."

people really seem to be missing out on games that made multiplayer important.

Damn.

Funny how the 3DO not only compares to the PS3 in price range, but also in the same ugly design.
They wear baggy clothing, call each other n***a, listen to rap and happen to be hardcore gamers?
