Hey, it's done pretty darn well on PS2, so you never know. Anyway, people probably won't pick up a PS3 just for any game, there's things like the Blu-Ray player to consider (some people are getting the PS3 just for that!). I think it will pull in people who enjoyed the first set of singstar games, as well as people who are curious about it.
You could but you could always buy a Karoake Machine and have enough to buy a 360 HD-DVD and use it on a PC for movies. And plus it doesnt classical opera edition, so no pavorotti equals no go.
^^I agree, its great that its helping create treatements for diseases.
If you ask me, the psp is pretty lame so far. Out of all psp I dont think I've liked any games out, I'm still waiting for Silent hill origins, FFVII:CC. Its been a 2 years buying this psp, I've pretty much got rid of most games I have. I dont know Sony really need to get games going here, cause I dont think developers do.
Penumbra : Overtune (6 years ago)
I was wondering if anyone played this game? Or has opinion about it?


I just played through the demo of this game its pretty good. The game is cross between silent hill and half life. It tries to deal with pseudo-reality. The game's atmosphere is amazing. You feel a sense of isolation, vunerability since you dont anything to defend yourself. Getting the best outta of graphics means you gotta tune up your monitor until it looks right, and its definatly worth playing in the dark. Anyway there's a demo on their website and game is out on 29th march I think. I'm interested in it but my specs make it run sluggish so I dont know if I'm gonna buy it.

Minimum Requirements:
OS: Windows 2000/XP/Vista
Processor: 1Ghz CPU
Memory: 256MB RAM
Disc Space: 300MB Free Hard-drive space
Video Card: ATI Radeon 8500/NVIDIA GeForce 3 (GeForce4MX not supported)

Never played the game but was interested in it, I'm definatly gonna play the sequel.

Q: How come my country doesn't get any of this cool content? What's up with that?!
A: There is no easy answer as to why every region doesn't get every single piece of downloadable Xbox Live content. In short, there are many factors that influence content availability that we don't control.
If you've ever tried to take your lemonade stand worldwide you'd understand. What happens if a country has enacted a ban on lemon-derived products? Or what if my lemonade fails to pass a certification board? Or what if yellow-colored drinks are not allowed for public consumption? And do I need a license to use lemons from someone else's orchard? Welcome to the real world where unfortunately/fortunately there are a host of conditions that influence and regulate what you can and can't do.
Governments, politicians, laws, regulations, video game rating boards, the ins-and-outs of licensing, Copyright and other Intellectual Property laws and treaties - any one of which can directly impact where content is available and where it is not.
In every region we offer content these factors are unique. There is not one single Video Game Rating Board that governs the ratings each video game receives. The United States and part of Canada have the ESRB. Japan has CERO. Australia and New Zealand have varying forms of the OFLC (Australia OFLC / New Zealand OFLC). Germany has the USK. Roughly twenty-five European countries have the widely adopted PEGI. And so on and so on. Not all governments are the same. Laws are different. Regulations are different. Cultural preferences are different. And let's not even start in on the licensing model for the entertainment industry.
So its all lemonade's fault, damn lemonade.
You'd think they learn from PSP piracy problems.

My logic is that HD-DVD has a smaller capacity, and is therefore likely to get replaced sooner.
By retrospective, I know betamax and VHS is done and said a lot but it fits here. Betamax was the better the technology it failed. Bigger capicity means nothing if you could just watch the same quality movie for less.
Its for PSP? I didnt know that, then I gotta get sign up for sure.
Blu-ray sucess? Umm..NO. Blu-ray is the reason for the big price increase and it made guys like me look other places for playstation replacement. Lose the blu-ray with the price cut you got the ps3 as a winner.
In my opinion they still need to fix original, online system is horrible to find good games. The amount of glitches online suck, I lost kills for no reasons, A button sucks and chainsawing someone screws up for no reason.

He is an evil monopolist who once he leaves retires to work on that charity of his, is a day the IT industry should celebrate, good riddance to rotten toejam

EDIT: my hatred towards Gates and Microsoft is from me as an IT guy, not a gamer
Apprently being ambitious is evil? Where's Steve Jobs on the list? Anyway Its little hypocritical to call someone evil monopolist and charitable in the same sentence.
I've never played guitar hero but I think I'll pass, sound track isnt for my tastes.

Which brings me to my point that this quote is full of it. I don't think you can honestly get a right answer to which is the best hardware/console, just your personal preference.
Ouch, that hurts. I think you can easily get the best hardware, it depends on what you're looking for.

My girlfriend is obsessed with pink, but I don't see us getting one, she doesn't even have a pink DS Lite yet
Been there, I told my Ex she was just a bad cliche.
Hollywood meets video game, so it begins.
Step 7 Who cares. Guy obviously doesnt like wii but enjoys getting the rent paid. Dont give a shit either way.
From what I read Japanese gamers are pretty big into Live thing.
Re: GRAW 2 (6 years ago)
I've got it and hate it, I have no idea on how to play co-op missions and online is fun, though I've died in so many dramatic ways. I havent played to first and personally I dont like GRAW type of games, but online is gonna see me through.
Re: Core Pack (6 years ago)
Core its worth buying if you dont ever plan on buying the premium stuff or using live to download demos and stuff. Sure its cheaper but if you are planning on buying premium you're better off saving up for a premium.

Well, you would certainly hope that he knows what he's talking about. It does seem to have an edge over the 360, and games can only get better over time, that goes for any console. I'd really like to see what the PS3 is capable of.
Looking at the current slagging of Sony going in the states, It doesnt look like the PS3 has an edge over 360 at all. Some are even saying that graphics of the same games look better on the 360. Microsoft are evil monopolists, dont count them out
I think most developers would say tit for tat, personally I think the graphical leap for either consoles will be too small to tell. It wont be like Gamecube vs XBox. Plus I'm hoping Microsoft brides me with stuff, so I couldnt care.
Wow, that was cold for guys with wii. Kinda agree with one point not being next-gen console and techinically inferior to 360 and ps3. Being shit is your own belief, he has the right to call wii shit same as any other person disagrees with him as wii is cool.
Best guys in Japan working on JRPG, if that isnt the reciepe of success I dont know what it is.

The PS3 I understand is facing similiar problems with units being returned for problems as well at about the same rate i.e 5% of consoles sold.
Really? Never guessed, I thought they werent having problems as per Xbox. Then again on personal hand, DRE has plagued my PS2's a lot.

They can say whatever they want - they are not going to bring Kingdom Hearts to the Wii when it is so succesful on Sony's platform.

They can take Kingdom Hearts so much further on the PS3 than the Wii.
If Chain of memories says anything, it was on GBA. But then again its getting remade for platinum edition of KH2.
I've had loads of problem, my controller doesnt automatically switch on my xbox, Obvilion freezes quite a few times, then Dashboard crashes, random disconnects from live and issues with using my LAN. I've had heating problems with it, discs wouldnt read at times. But still the thing hasnt broken down yet.

It was said. It was the director's wishful thinking. Probably still going to PS3.
I havent heard or cant find anything on it (link please KH fan here). Only thing I heard was Square Enix VP saying that didnt want a overall winner this time, thus multiplatform for Kingdom Hearts at least thats what being thrown.
joejoe wrote
The Kingdom hearts director said he would like it on Wii. But instead of Disney characters, he wanted Nintendo characters and environments. I don't like the sound of that. That's not official though.
Havent heard anything like that, I heard 360 and the skeptism of PS3. But its still likely with ps3 though.
renegadesx wrote
PS3 having a lifespan of that long by no means imply the PS4 is 10 years away.
Probably be the samething as PS2 currently, 10 years isnt a long shot considering it'll come in the budget gaming market.

Well, TECHNICALLY, the GCN version of SA1 (SADX) is different to the Dreamcast one, being SA1 converted to the SA2 engine... so it has a different feel.
Well I recall reading SonicDX is a director's cut version of Sonic Adventure. It also appeared on the PC as well.
