"You people"? What do you mean by "You people"?

Being serious I don't know why either. I've always found the games (including the SNES one) to be shit. It's probably similar with Mortal Kombat it's all nostalgia and/or gimmicks (Mortal Kombat being the blood, gore, and violence while Killer Insticts being the "amazing" pre-rended graphics and black carthridge).

For the T&A of course!

Seriously though, I liked the KI games because were just mindless, over-the-top fun. Happy

I'm actually very surprised that Microsoft/Rare haven't released the KI arcade games on XBLA yet.

Anyway have you guys been paying attention to the latest media create sales? This is the 4th or 5th consecutive week in a row were the 360 has outsold the PS3, not only that but this week it outsold the PS2. Seems that Microsoft has finally accomplished its goal of being the top "HD console" too bad that isn't a feat worth shit there. LOL

If you don't want flaming trolls, don't have a board called system wars on the Internet.  And technical issues on GameSpot?  That's just madness!

And on a serious side, the content is provided by the users.  If you want good content, you want happy users to provide that content.  Demanding minced words, steadfast adherence to being "on-topic" and simply breathing down their necks over calling an idiot an idiot is how to kill morale and drive people away.  Make things fun and the actual discussion will benefit naturally.

We've had plenty of good discussion here, but would you seriously want to be here without Steel's massive balls?  I mean, really?

I'm supposed to take that dribble about Fallout 3 from some niche site seriously, when its obviously written by some nerd who's mad that Bethesda is making it?

I'm all set. Game looks and sounds badass if you ask me, and every other normal person seems to have loved it so far. I've yet to be anything but impressed with Bethesda's work. I didn't agree with all the choices in Oblivion, but there were plenty I did agree with.

Agreed. Seriously who is this guy and why should I care? Scour the internet enough and you'll find some joe blow with a dissenting opinion on anything and everything thinking that he is someone special because he sees what no one else sees. I'll wait until the majority of mainstream reviews come in as well as I get some game time of my own. So far though I'm still quite impressed with what I've seen on the game.

You guys are completely missing the point. Check this out:

Why? Because the conditions under which I had to play this "RPG" were not acceptable: sixteen hours in a row in a luxurious hotel on an almost finished build, Bethesda asking to see my screenshots in order to "approve" them...

This is unacceptable, and Archie waiting for mainstream reviewers, well how do you know they are trustworthy? No one should review a game after playing it in a hotel for a day.

Edit: it from French magazine CanardPC. So it is a "mainstream" opinion!

Well I haven't been let down by a review yet. I've played GTAIV, Halo 3, Assassin's Creed, Bioshock, and Mass Effect and found the games to be worthy of the glowing reviews they received. I don't know CanardPC nor the guy who wrote so I'm comfortable in waiting to see what those who I am familiar with have to say about the game plus I want to see what the majority have to say.

Yeah, but you love all games Archie. That does not change the fact that what these developers/publishers are doing is wrong. A reviewer should get a review copy well in advance of the release, so that he/she/it can form a good opinion not based on hype of PR.

Oh and you did disagree with the Too Human reviews, so there Nyaa

Wii is still dominating, it will destory all the competition this christmas, its incredible what that system is doing, PS2 type hardware numbers. Wii Fit, huge, might be the second biggest game of the year, disgusting to think about, but it worked for nintendo. Wii Music will also sell like mad despite it looking like it wont be good at all. Can someone explain to me why Mario Kart is still selling and Smash is not?? Smash was the biggest GC game last gen, it seems like Mario Kart will be the best selling non-"wii" titles game on the Wii, what the hell. Is it cause it comes with a stupid steering wheel thing? Is this whole peripheral madness actually working?

SW did well

Star Wars: FO = 1.42Mil units combined across all platforms

Sony bringing up the rear, its over in the US sony, you are last place.

360 is doing nicely, in fact is is everyone. Wii is just still repeating the pattern selling more than 360 + PS3 combined. At this point it seems like there is no game or price cut that can affect them. I'm not suprised at Mario Kart selling more. Personally I prefer it. It's an easier game to play and have fun with and understand than Smash is for the majority of gamers and non-gamers alike. I can sit down a simpleton with that game and its competitive and fun. With Smash you need to have put in some practice or you get slaughtered.

dvader said:

Wii Music is good. wtf.

Oh and here is Sporks from gaf trying to show why this crappy game is not crappy, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Mydu9N0PBw

TBH I read the IGN preview and was pretty disgusted with the was Cassa wrote it. He seems to be completely missing the point. He seems like he wants a rhythm game where you are matching symbols to timing, licenced tracks and acheiving high scores. Wii Music meanwhile isn't trying to be like that. It probably should be more related to the Sports or Wii Fit line - that kind of philosyphy. Sure it has crap midi music at times and a poor track selection, but it's meant to be a freeform musical toy that people can play around with, purely for fun and experimentation. I personally don't know whether it's going to be something I would enjoy, but I wouldn't rip it in the preview like that.

1UP gave Wii Music an A- ? GASP

Wii Music GOTY 2008 Runner Up CONFIRMED!

In all seriousness, I'm going to rent Wii Music to see how it is. I was crazy enough to buy Electroplankton, and enjoyed it, so I might like Wii Music too.

I will have to read that, they have started to rate casual games with some respect if Boom Blox is any indication.

That's unfair to the Gamecube, referring to PS3 as the Gamecube 2.

Gamecube had much more meaningful exclusives by this point in its life than the PS3 does. It was also $99 by this point....and the fucking PS2 STILL isn't $99!

Fucking sad how they ripped people off on that hardware. I honestly think that's what gave them the idea that they could sell PS3 for such insane prices....they thought people would pay it for the mighty PS brand.

For some reason GS goes VERY slow on my PC. Anyway I HATE that guy. I'd put him up their with Marcus and Carnage though he is crap in a different way.

Same here. It freezes my browser so I actively avoid even checking out previews or anything. Same with Gamevideos.

Anyway have you guys been paying attention to the latest media create sales? This is the 4th or 5th consecutive week in a row were the 360 has outsold the PS3, not only that but this week it outsold the PS2. Seems that Microsoft has finally accomplished its goal of being the top "HD console" too bad that isn't a feat worth shit there. LOL

Did anyone watch the Calling footage?

http://gonintendo.com/?p=59633

It looks like a first person Fatal Frame. Very reminiscent of Japanese horror movies like The Grudge or the Ring. The only thing that puts me off is the cursors which break away from reality. You should have a subtle torch like in RE4 in darker areas and a real hand on screen when you interact with things like MP3.

Wii MUSIC 1up review:

"True musicianship has taken a hit recently with all the music-based videogames captivating today's youth, and Wii Music will surely be the next virtual music experience replacing real music for everyone. As a classically trained musician, I might take offense at this -- except that Wii Music gets it really right. Using the Wii Remote, Nunchuk, and (optionally) Balance Board to mimic the motions of real instruments may have seemed like a bad joke when the game was first announced, but in practice, it works amazingly well. It's worth it to take the time to learn the four different instrument motions (drums, guitar, horns, and violin) because the game offers so many varied opportunities to pretend-play all of the dozens of instruments in the game, and knowing how to wave your arms and press the buttons just right makes the crucial difference between a stupid-silly game and an actually fulfilling one. "

Huh? Sounds good.

So Dvader, what didn't you like about the gamespot LBP review? Rip it a new one for us Nyaa

Pfft...I thought that was a new HITMAN game, as in, Agent 47 dressing up and killing people with gasoline.

I'm all 'Wow...weird that IO would make that for the Wii when they only released Hitman 2 on Gamecube.' I click on it, and its some crazy anime shit. Misleading.

Killer Instinct Gold

Answer me this, WHY DO PEOPLE LOVE THIS GAME!? IT WAS NEVER ANY GOOD!

The memories, the arcade pre-rendered visuals. Plus it was the only fighter in which I could confidentely pull off 66 hit combos. It was hilarious when you were playing a friend and combo them so badly they can't even move. It's not a bad game but it's one for the memories more than anything.
