New cars (some free) hit Forza 2

Aug 1st 2007 10:55AM (Joystiq)
"Maybe all these cars and tracks would have been on the disc if they werent limited by DVD9 and used BD or HD-DVD.. its the same problem those PGR4 devs are bitching about."

Yeah. Maybe we they should have waited another year and charged us $600 for a "game" console with an HD format (blu-ray or hd-dvd). Then maybe we could have an stalled user base of less than 6 million. And maybe we can just sit there and watch movies on it all day long so we could have extra content on one game. Please, I hardly think releasing a game and giving consumers the "choice" in purchasing more options is such a bad alternative. Games are long enough as it is. Especially when we get more than a dozen more titles this fall.. does anyone really have time to play more tracks, stages, whatever. But I guess you can't make everyone happy. I'm sure the majority of 360 owners are happy though.

"I haven't been this happy since me and my gf had sex about 15 times throughout the day and then she made me a steak while I played Halo 2..."

I haven't been this happy since my GF and her hot blonde friend (Jessica) and I had a threesome.. then went out to dinner... then I got home and played Halo 2 while I got a blowjob from both of them!!

Come on man... nobody wants to hear about your love life with that whale of a GF you have!!

It's Official: Halo 3 has four player, online co-op [Update - Details!]

Finally, a fun party game for all gamers on 360!! Now there's no reason not to own a 360. With more new games, a price drop, and better hardware this fall(I have an Elite though so I'm happy)... What's that other system called?? Oh yeah GAYS3!! That was a slam at my good friend GodisaMyth!! How are those cigars and wine my friend. You must be drunk to own one of those consoles!! =)

Bizarre confirms PGR4's cities, comments on DVD constraints

Personally... I'm very impressed with what they are able to do know. But I've been impressed with each generation of consoles... only to find that they just keep pushing the visuals further. Visually I'm impressed, but the direction these games are going are becoming way too involving. You have more than a dozen titles (at least) coming this fall for the 360 and PS3. I'm interested in a lot of them but they all take up a lot of time and money. Maybe that's why so many resort to the Nintendo DS and Wii, because you can just pick up and play with ease and put it down after a few hours.

I watched this on xbox live and think it's cool what they are trying to do. We can't just keep seeing games marketed towards people that never play RPG's or never picked up a controller. Soon this will be a generation geared towards JUST the hardcore and you will lose half your audience. I have tried to teach people (friends wives) how to play an xbox that weren't even familiar on how to use the analog sticks. From what I've seen, there is enough depth here for seasoned gamers as well as enough ease for first time gamers. What's wrong with that? How is thinking outside of the box or different ways of immersion for the gamers being an "Egocentric Brit"???

Bizarre confirms PGR4's cities, comments on DVD constraints

It's funny. Dispite dvd and it's limitations... The Nintendo Wii is still dominating worldwide sales. Looks like we really need Blu-Ray!!

Video Games are getting too long as it is. I got rid of Oblivion because it was WAY too long. It was a great title.. but who's got time anymore to invest in a week to play a video game? Some would complain that a game like Gears of War is too short.. but 10 hours is plenty to get an enjoyment out of a title. That coupled with endless time in multi-player games and you really get your money's worth. Developers should start making beautiful and rich titles and break them apart more. Either through continued titles or multiple disks.. who cares?!? I would definitely argue against needing more. The more you try to cram into anything, the less interested people will be. It's all about quality anyway. Why not make a beautiful title and keep it short instead of making a long ass title.. just because you can... only to be doing the same thing over and over again for hours??

Some of you just like to make SH#@ up without backing it up with links. Check this out Fony Fanboys. NOTICE THE DATE OF THE ARTICLE AS WELL. I think some of you take your fanboyism too seriously and try to misinform the general public!!!!!!

@ Sceren

Take PGR4 for example. They can only include a day or a night track, for each track, not both because of the limitations

Are you making stuff up? PGR3 included day, night, and overcast on all tracks. Compression techniques I'm sure are further along since the launch of 360 and I am pretty sure all tracks will include weather and time of day. Are you a PS3 owner or something?

@ Sceren

Ummm... it's already been confirmed that all of Halo 3 (including multiplayer) will be on one disk. Any additional maps are downloadable via xbox live marketplace onto your HDD. Sorry, next argument!!
