[QUOTE="swamprat_basic"]Microsoft has to support a whole lot more servers than Valve.peacebringer
um on XBL the players are the host there are very little server hosting games... Even with Halo2 the game would choose the best connection from one of the players and he would host. the only Servers MS host is for D/l content and i can beat with Vavles games running in the Giga bits then they prob own more servers than MS with it's MB downloads. did you know on XBL the players host there own servers? cause that just a rip off why do you think Sony doesn't charge there not hosting it the gamers are so why charge them? Nintendos not charging for it's Wifi cause again the consoles are gonna host the games XBL is a rip off.

You think Valve has more servers than MS for downloadable content? MS has all of the demos/videos/game content, XBL arcade, and the entire on-demand TV/Movie stuff, much of which is in HD.

[QUOTE="sparklebarkle"]It looks much better in motion..I don't see the point in using screenshots to compare graphics.lone_wolf911

But so does MP2. The difference between the pics is about the same as the difference between the vids.

wrong, go watch them mp3 at ign and gametrailers

Right, because I would have made that claim without having all ready seen the videos...:roll:

The game looks good, but it does not look that different from MP2, and it doesn't look like it could not be pulled off on the GCN.

Well, I think that both games would work exceptionally well with co-op.

Why does MS need to stop Wii from taking the lead in order to be successful? It seems to me that the Wii was designed to sell lots of systems, and not compete head-on with the Xbox 360 or PS3.

[QUOTE="Japanese_Monk"][QUOTE="aliasfreak"]

I say Gears. And here is a screenshot that I think looks beautiful (this isn't mine, I took it from someone else's thread. I'm too lazy right now to look up whose it is, sorry).

Wow. Gears by a long shot. People are just voting for uncharted b/c they are sony fanboys.

Gears all the way.

Nope to both, watch my pictures on page 5. Uncharted wins.

Actually, the only pics you posted that look as nice as Gears are the cutscene pics, which look more cartoony than real. The actual gameplay pics of Uncharted don't look anywhere as nice as Gears. They just don't.

After some price cuts, but only if there are some serious must-have games out by then.

[QUOTE="swamprat_basic"]That's stupid. If 61% of Xbox 360s were breaking down, that would be nearly 6 million consoles, and MS would definitely have recalled the system. It would be all over the tech news instead of an article here or there. Clearly that survey's data was skewed by the fact that people whose consoles have broken are much more likely to participate in those surveys than people with working systems.Game13a13y

so what if the survey is not 100% accurate, it still can be used to indicate that the problem is in existence.

 

Obviously the problem exists, which is why MS changed their warranty policy. But if 61% of Xbox 360 consoles were failing, they would have needed to do a whole lot more than that.
