Spore tops list of most pirated PC games of 2008

Dec 8th 2008 1:38AM (Joystiq)
DRM is not the answer, but what is? Trying a game before buying is nice, but if a game does not have a demo, then would you just steal it? Many of you have said that if game devs made better games then they would do better, but most of the games on this list are good. yet they were still stolen. The problem is that many believe in getting something for nothing, and have convinced themselves its all good since its a digital product. They would never go in a store and shoplift, but game piracy is okay. And lowering the price won't help cause nothings cheaper than free. Sure am glad i don't make games, cause if I worked for 2-3 yrs on something and then folks just stole it as much as they bought it I'd be pissed.

Analyst: Blame Sony Japan for PSP slump

Aug 29th 2008 10:01AM (Joystiq)
It does not matter how many good games the PSP has, there are just those that will always say it has no games. Yes, the DS will outsell it, but this is the 1st time there has ever been a viable competitor to the Nintendo handheld empire. some have mentioned going to Metacritic to see the games list and I did. PSP has lots of games. I think the PSP should be 129, and it would sell better, and more ads for its games would help. But so far to me its been good. And as long as the monster hunter games keep coming, it will continue to do well in Japan.

Rumor: PS2 game downloads coming to PS Store

What i don' get is people saying they want BC so they can play all the PS2 games they never played, when a used PS2 is about 40 bucks. If you want to play PS2 games, find a 60 or 20 gig PS3 or get a used PS2. The PS2 has been out for 7+ years so they should be cheap.

MGS4 sells 476K units first week in Japan; UK PS3 sales impact 'minimal'

Keep in mind they were just talking about the UK. Has Spain even gotten it yet or is the truckers strike still going?

But no matter how good the games are, and this goes for the 360 as well, the prices of these consoles are way too high. I hope both have a price cut of at least 50 this late summer/early fall.

Maybe they don't own a 360 and want to play GTA4, COD4, Singstar, Warhawk, Rock Band, etc.. Are those good enough reasons to have already bought a PS3? As for MGS4, it is very good, as I have never been a MGS fan but may have to go get the old ones.

Robbie Bach: broken Xbox 360s did not affect brand preference

I recommend to people that ask the PS3. There are many great games on the 360, but the reliability means alot to me. My expectation for something to last several years may be too high, but Microsoft needs to step up. when the next Xbox comes out, I will not buy one at launch.

He must be smoking. I had over 12 360 games, but have sold/traded/given away most of them due to repeated hardware failures on 3 different machines. the last straw was sending my 3rd unit in for RROD, and the 1st time I played it after getting it back it RROD in 5 minutes. i' thru with dealing with it, i'll just buy games for my PS3 and have to miss out on Gears 2 and Ninja Gaiden 2.

Joyswag: PlayStation 3 (40GB)

I buy at Blockbuster as they have the highest game trade-in value. My 9 month old really cut into my gaming budget.

See more Uncharted with new trailer

I just don't get the haters. The game looks awesome, and the devs have a pedigree. But since its on the PS3 it sucks? Yes, it is a new IP. But all games start out as new IP. The PS3 is 400 bucks now, has some good games, and a good load of titles coming this holiday. Many of them are on the 360, but for those that have a PS3 or want one, thats enough for them. Guitar Hero is good, Assasins Creed looks hot, and so does COD4. Fernando, I can appreciate your dry wit sometimes, but please, stop hatin. We all understand you will not get a PS3, so just play the system and games you like. I will say that it is highly unlikely that Uncharted wil 'SAVE' the PS3, but it does look nice and many will give it consideration.
