None.. because they all sucked except for Halo.HazeNPopes

Your probably just too young to have played them. Im 22 and Marathon was popular in elementary school, and myth was popular in early highschool when i was like 13ish. So unless ur 20+ the only bungie game you would know is halo.

I'm predicting Calling All Cars to be a complete bomb.Ā  People are already making fun of it without even playing it.Ā  People are calling it "Cel Damage" ripoff among other things.Ā  Casuals nor hardcoreĀ don't want this type of game.Ā  They want blood and guts and expect it from a Jaffe project.Ā 

David Jaffe had to have known that when he became a game designer, there would be a lot of time spent developing games with not much free time.Ā  So, with the success of Twisted Metal, God of War, God of War 2, he suddenly decides that he wants to spend more time with the wife and kids.Ā 

I saw "BonusRound" on Gametrailers and watched and listened to him.Ā  He seems fed up with having to work long hours.Ā  He says "I want to climb a different mountain"...meaningĀ makingĀ simpler games.Ā  But, I got the impression that he is tired of the pressure.Ā 

Well I say POOR BABY!Ā  He chose the WRONG PROFESSION!Ā  He could have easily said the following to the higher ups hounding him..."Ok, here's the deal, I am a mega-success.Ā  I will make God of War 3 if you give me more time to work on it than you gave me with God of War 2.Ā  Otherwise, count me out."Ā  With all the money he has brought, the higher-ups would probably easilyĀ had given him the time luxury.Ā 

See, everyone wins.Ā  Instead of giving the finger to the fans of his games and going in a completely different direction that is alienating his fans, he could instead make God of War 3 but take more time on it than he normally would.Ā  See, the whole development team could go home earlier, and everyone wouldn't be as stressed.Ā  Jaffe would get to spend his precious time with the family like he wants.Ā  Everyone is happy.Ā  The fans, Jaffe, everyone.Ā 

But instead of doing this, Jaffe suddenly decides that he wants to "climb a different mountain" and make experimental games.Ā  Why now Jaffe? Give the fans your vision of God of War 3, request longer development and more time to spend at home with your family, and stay true to your fans.Ā 

Nope.Ā  Jaffe instead gives all of us the middle finger and makes a "cute" little car game.Ā  AWWW! How sweet. :roll:Ā  And to top it all off, Jaffe had the nerve to say basically that if Calling All Cars bombs in sales he will still make experimental type games.Ā 

Ever heard of Gunpei YokoiĀ ?Ā  He invented the Game Boy.Ā  It was a mega-success.Ā  He was on top.Ā  Then he made Virtual Boy, a complete bomb.Ā  He wasĀ criticized byĀ Nintendo execsĀ and put way down the ladder there.Ā  He was humiliated.Ā  Now maybe Japan is tougher in this regard, but if Jaffe's "experimental" games bomb in sales, then Jaffe will suffer the same type of fate.Ā  And CallingĀ All Cars will bomb.Ā  Believe it.Ā  Everyone in the video game industry is expendable....INCLUDING YOU JAFFE!Ā

So he has to continue making games just to please you? Did you know developers are not subject to all the overtime laws and crap because they are "creating" something (at least thats how it is where i am)... So they can make you work 16 hours a day, 7 days a week and not pay you a penny of overtime because you have no fixed hours! Oh the joy of being a game developer. When god of war sells way beyond expectations he does not make a penny more then what was already in his contract. If they are overworking him or treating him like crap then he should just quit. Why would he stay if hes only pleasing tard fanboys like you who dont appretiate how much hes sacrificed to make the game.

From what i remember they decided to sell it in retail box's aswell. Which means it should be a full fledged game.

Why would it get AAA status when a game like chromehounds got crap? chromehounds had good online and basically no single player but it got docked HUGE because it was rated on single player only (which supposidly sucked). Dont expect this game to score good when its value score is gunna be horrible.

IĀ all honesty this was the ONLY game on the 360 that had me thinking of buying a xbox360.Ā 

Now I can officailly say there's no reason for me to buy a xbox360 :twisted: thank you namco (I already made predictions on this) I konw you'd do it.Ā 

LMAO at lemmings who say they didn't hype this game.Ā 

Microned

Im sorry a RPG that will probably not get even AA was your only reason toĀ spend $400 on aĀ console?

Seeing how its never been on the top wanted famitsu list... means japanese gamers dont even want it. However it does look pretty good to me (graphically). Using instruments to fight creatures sounds very gay to me though and i dont know if that will appeal to the 360 crowd.

It will be interesting to see that if it does come out for PS3 if Japanese gamers MAGICALLY all of a sudden want the game.

Its seems like your deliberately leaving exclusive 360 games off your lists to make the ps3 list look better.

I thought like wto days ago there was an article saying it had just reached 600k.

Anyway, 1.3 mil is only theĀ # of registered accounts. Whereas live is # of people currently paying right?
