yes people with more common names die a lot, people with german like names are traitors or power crazed people etc

When have they ever just shut down a server for a major company like that? People worry too much. I posted two links few posts ago about MS and Sony shutting down their DRM servers, it would be not 1st time when obsolete bussiness was shot down when new one emerged to save money.

I do not consider 3 games released in 10 years as a milking

Was about time!!!

Actually I don't quite understand the uproar unlimited ammo regularly creates. Most shooters (survival and tactical shooters aside) already have unlimited ammo, i.e. they throw so much ammo at you, it might as well be unlimited. And as a side note, the way ammo is handled now makes games damn predictable. I still remember HL2, where you pretty much knew in advance what's going to happen, just by the ammo that dropped. therefore i dont liked HL2, and that's why most today's shooters suck, i have to play my 1st playthrough on highest difficulty, because it's around the lowest difficuly in 1995... and then... end of fun... no higher difficulties available... if there is no thrill to run out of ammo, there's no reason to play it at all... go play Alien vs Predator 1, and see how a FPS can be thrilling if you dont have billions of bullets lying around...

Some people are okay with liking EA products. I know its crazy, but you've got to accept it, Nightshape. Better 2 EA products than Fallout 3 lol... better a lobotomy than single EA product... that means lobotomy > 2x fallout 3?

It's normal, when you have turned off console and turned off PC, you bootup and play the console version sooner Blame your laziness, like i do :D

Now you're just being silly. Not realy, Automatic Health Regeneration and Unlimited Ammo in FPS is same stupidity as Autosolve Button in Puzzle Games...

Steam requires an online check when you are installing but you can play in offline mode after it's been installed. And like I said, you're just as likely to loose a disk as Valve going under and Steam's servers shutting down, given that so many publishers have invested in steam. Valve does not need to go under to shut down servers... They just need to get the idea of changing business model and start to thing keeping Steam up is not so cost effective and turn them off... big corporations made lot of these before even while they were in big profits, some changed their decision after public outrage some not... http://www.dailytech.com/MSN+Music+Authent...rticle11585.htm http://www.dailytech.com/Sony+Disconnects+...article8669.htm

yes but it does not solve all his problems with digital distribution he mentioned, only one

It did not had half the finess of Half-Life 2, which is even older I presume you meant Halo. And as I said in the post you quoted HL2 has more to it than shooting stuff. The fun doesn't only come from shooting different colored aliens, but also from varying gameplay, puzzles and an interesting(to me at least) story. No i meant HalfLife 1 i just pressed wrong key Fixed already :D And I never played Halo nor any sequels, so i cant judge it.

HL 2 sucks, nuff said

Sorry, I miss-wrote PS2 with PS3 (that's why the edit). I once owned a PS3 and played Drake and MGS4, but what stuff do you think is good (and exclusive) on the PS2? No Sqauere-Enix stuff please. I heard Primal, God of War, Ico+Sequel are good for starters. God of War for sure is a must buy, Grand Turismo 4 is my recommendation, If you can get some stuff from ebay buy Crash Bandicoot 1,2,3 (all ps1 games, but ps2 versions of crash are not so good imo), Metal Gear Solid series, Devil May Cry series, and still i have to reccomend you Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts series Oh yeah i forgot Tenchu and Onimusha series... EDIT: and yeah i recommend you to buy PS3 again after it's price hit bargain bin like the price of PS2 is atm if you are full time PC player there will be lots of worth-to-play of exclusives aswell...

Final Fantasy XIII and versus XIII if you are into JRPG, Gran Turismo 5 if you are into racing, Metal Gear Solid 4 if you are into ... well Metal Gear Solid series , Little Big Planet if you are into family stuff, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction or Uncharted: Drake's Fortune if you are into action-adventure, Killzone 2 if you are into FPS

Ehm... you forgetting that PS2 is 8 years in sale and still selling... Let's talk about peak of the consoles after Wii will be 8 years on the market... If the buying of it will continue in same pace we should be at around 150millions at that time... simple math...

No

Finaly something on which we agree \o/

Rofl there are still people who think, that linux today needs compiling drivers and command promt to work???

Just to add fuel into the heat According to Sony, PS3 will last you 7 more years http://games.techwhack.com/557-playstation...o-last-a-decade Sure and look like Atari 2600 lvl gfx vs PCs by then.. *shrugs* if that floats your boat all the power to you. I like my mouse, kb and ability to do other things, thank you. Ehm... Keyboard and mouse could be attached in some games even to PS2, for PS3 is that normal, and as i wrote few posts before you can install linux inside PS3 aswell... so you can do other "PC only" things on PS3 aswell, how shocking... And you know there are lot of PS1 or Sega Genesis/Megadrive or SuperNES games are still awesome and bigger fun than half of the "nextgen console/pc games" released last 3 years, but you AMAGAD MY LARA CRAFT HAZ BOOBZ OF ZILLION POLYGOONZ ON MY NEW GeFARCEOVERNINETHOUSAND!!! type of game lovers will never understand that...

New trailers showed that you will have also male characters in Final Fantasy XIII. English trailer http://www.finalfantasy13game.com/ and Japanese in higher res but without subtitles http://www.square-enix.co.jp/fabula/ff13/

No loss then...

One of the reason why its wise to buy PS3 for Final Fantasy XIII rather than Xbox 360 ... I am realy curious how many DVDs would be needed for that game The second and the biggest reason to buy PS3 for that game is Final Fantasy versus 13 (still PS3 exclusive ) so you save one Xbox 360 purchase when you want to play both games
