Battlefield 2142 scans of PC Gamer cover story leaked

Mar 21st 2006 10:29AM (Joystiq)
I've never had an install problems or major glitches with BF2 (I guess 2 Gigs of RAM helps out a lot). Sure it's crashed out a couple of times, the server browser list may not be the fastest but they have been improving it.
Also most of those patches that come out for it are to counter the jerks out there that try to exploit and hack there way through the game ruining it for everyone. BF2 is great and considering all the things that you can do and is happening all around you at the same time in the game, I'm surprised that it works as well as it does.
BF 2142 looks great. I'm glad they didn't go with lasers. (Too typical) I will be picking this up when it comes out.

DirecTV blade coming to 360 Dashboard?

Wow, it’s funny how hiding behind an anonymous ID on this blog can make some real bold and stupid at the same time.
Phosphos, if you what to be an ignorant sheep led in which ever direction by any bait that you’ll bite at then that’s your choice. I guess that’s why you still live at home playing your own version of “feel the magic” all alone locked up in your room while your mom’s banging on the door wondering what’s that “strange noise”.
You see, I know just as much about you as you know about me. Oh, and I see that your other little friend that posted #24 likes to come by and play with your (virtual) “DS” too. Hey, whatever sets you two off.
Ever wonder why Microsoft got into console gaming in the first place? Shouldn’t their focus be on providing really next gen titles instead of more of the same with just jazzed up graphics. They haven’t even fixed all of the bugs with the system yet and they are cramming more stuff into it that’s not even game related.
I know, I know. All those years of self abuse have made it very difficult for you to look past you hairy pal… err, I mean narrow minded, trollish out look of others that can see past what you accept as “YAH! EXTRA CONTENT!”

As others have said, they need to concentrate on releasing games.

DirecTV blade coming to 360 Dashboard?

And so it begins… What a nice little Trojan the 360 has turned out to be. Especially after failing to get into a respectable number of homes with their WebTV box. How was Bill going to realize his dream of delivering content (And making a mint while at it) into the homes of millions???
Hmmm, what’s that? 30 million Sony Playstation 2’s solid in the US!! (www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,116636,00.asp) That’s Sony having the eyes and ears of all those house holds being able to promote whatever they want to. Man, how can I get into some of that action?
That my friends is how the Xbox was born. Don’t think that Old Bill is just a fellow gamer that just wants you to have the best gaming experience possible. Oh no! The Xbox was just the first step in gaining a foot hold into a large number of households. They knew that it would not be able to deliver the type of content that he wanted it to at that time. The Xbox was just a big PR project to make way for the real tool, The 360.
Expect a lot more of this (Various downloadable content) to come in the near future. Now is there anything wrong with this? No, not really, unless you like being used.

Why did you buy a DS?

Jan 20th 2006 3:52PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Hmm. You know. I've had a PSP for the longest time now and yes I love it.
BUT... I kept seeing how so many people with DSes were actually having "fun" with the games on it. Yeah, yeah the PSP looks great (I think just about everyone will agree with that) but is it TRULY a fun device? Geared to having games that are great to play? Hmmm, o_0
And that's what the DS has over the PSP in spades. Just look at the wireless picto chat feature on the DS. It alone is worth it and a big plus over the PSP cause that's where the fun is. In playing and communicating with other gamers and people that share your same interests. That's why I just picked up one. Also picked up MK:DS and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory:DS. Hope it's good.
