Chronicles of Riddick picked up by Atari, now has brand new campaign

Dec 2nd 2008 2:56PM (Joystiq Xbox)
One of the best games on the xbox. I beat the game 4 times on the xbox, and 2 times on the PC. Graphics are truly amazing even when compared to most xbox 360 tiles.

Former Harmonix developer shoots down PS3 tech in rant

Oct 31st 2007 12:19AM (Joystiq Playstation)
I just graduated from game design, and I hope I bring some of you people back to reality.

First of all I own all three systems, matter of fact I own 27 systems total.
As a game designer me and my company wants to make lots of money, so making a good quality game from the ground up takes us two years to make for the 360, but that same game to make for the Ps3 takes us 2 1/2 to 3 years. So in 10 years I can make 5 games for the 360, but on the ps3 I may only get 3-4 games. This is the reason that I would port games from one system to another. So I don't understand when some people say a good game takes time, why would you want to spend a lot of time and money on a game for a system that is not selling well? And the number one reason why the ps3 isnt selling well. It's because, its a beta-ray player first, then it is a game player. You can thank Sony for that.

Unreal Tournament 3 to be timed PS3 exclusive

Jul 11th 2007 9:22PM (Joystiq Xbox)
My guess is that this release has nothing to do with Epic or Sony. It's about M$. UT3 not being exclusive to the 360, and only will sell a few copies on the ps3(no one has a ps3)...just gives M$ more room for people to fall in love with their baby.

And that is Halo 3.

UT3 would have interfered with Halo(maybe a little).

Come next year, M$ will benifit from UT3 after selling a shit load of consoles because of Halo.

Chatpad Messenger Kit will cost $30 [update 1]

Jul 11th 2007 3:44PM (Joystiq Xbox)
$30 is way too much!

I can buy a regular USB keyboard $4.

Why does this add on have to cost $30. That is crazy and BS for M$ to ask for that much. They probably only pay $3 to make it. All the input is done by the controller, this thing has no sophisticated electroncis in it at all. They could of left the headset port the same as the old one. Guess they want you to feel you are getting a deal by giving us another damn headset. If it is a wireless headset then yes, it would be a deal.

M$ is asking way too much!

New 360 warranty: is it enough?

Jul 5th 2007 9:03PM (Joystiq Xbox)
A little bit too late if you ask me...

If there is 1.5 million bad units out there, half of them has been opened by there owners trying to repair them and telling M$ to go to hell with asking for $140. Of course the owners could'nt fix it and they voided the waranty by removing the void sticker. So now you can't send it in for repair under the waranty.

How do you void the waranty of something if the waranty does not exist yet?

This is good news for some(mostly future buyers), most fustrated people were the ones who felt M$ did them wrong and decided to find alternative methods(cheaper) to repair there systems, that still don't work. Way to go M$!

Micromart won't repair three red light 360s

Jun 28th 2007 4:09PM (Joystiq Xbox)
I had my 360 since day one with absolutly no problems. But I repair systems for other people and I have to say I've repaired about fifty 360's from the three red lights and unknown error. Most of the repaires end up going back to three red lights after awile, so it is basically a waste of time. Because I had to end up giving the money for the repair back to the people. So I understand why this company stop repairing them.

This is a shame, a goddamn terrible shame! No other video game system had this type of hardware failure that the manufacturer does not even no what the problem is. The only thing that comes close is the pos2 and Sony intentionally made the hardware fail(data read error) for job security or to continue the money flowing. I hated Sony for that! But, I made alot of money from it.

Over the course of time I've collected 27 different video game systems and they all work including my 360. But what makes me feel bad is when some poor sap buys a $60 game to only come home and play it and it breaks there $400 system. Thats wrong!

At first M$ was collecting $140 to repair these systems( I think they wanted to do the Sony thing), then they got overwhelmed with too many bad systems and could'nt justify charging people anymore, so they extended the warranty. I think this hardware failure was intentional for job security, but something went wrong and it is backfireing on M$.

SCIV scans: medieval cleavage galore

Jun 27th 2007 11:47AM (Joystiq Xbox)
There is nothing different here than the first four SC games. Well, the first was called Soul Edge(Soul Blade in the US).

I can't wait, my favorite fighter of all time. Blows DOA out of the water.

It's the CPU key that prevents 360 modding

Jun 25th 2007 2:52PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Modding isnt about piracy. I cant wait for xbox 360 media center were i can run my own video, not what M$ wants me to run. I cant wait to add my own external HD, not what they want me to have. All M$ have to do is release the drivers and that can happen. And if you put an OS on a system like this, you have a very powerful computer.

I like and own alot of 360 games but I dont have the time to play them much. Its knowing what I can do with the 360 that excites me and makes me luv this system.

Same type of feel as Chronicles of Riddick on the xbox... I love it!

Riddick Remake coming from Starbreeze

May 19th 2007 11:20AM (Joystiq Xbox)
One of the best games on the xbox. I love this game. Beat it twice on the xbox and 1 time on the PC. One of the only true games that showed how much superior the xbox was over the PS2, since there is no way the PS2 could run this game.

Was hoping for backward compatability for the 360, but I assumed it would have taken a great deal more work than the average game. So M$ said skip it and decided to let Starbreeze do the work and get paid for it since it is a release.

Besides for uping the resolution, the game is already next gen as far as I am concerned. But, if they remake I would hope they add a lot more content for guys like me who already beaten the game several times.
