Looks like exactly the same game to me. I could really care less about it now.

Oh common!

"...what players are left with is a crippled 1200 icon on their dashboard..."

Your joking right? I played the game with my roommates from beginning to end and had an absolute blast. Yeah, there are issues, sure. Game breaking ones? Not even close.
I spent a lot more money on disc based games that were a lot more broken than this. Your being a tad harsh.

I'd say 5-6. I got my cousins into playing games really early, but honestly for a long time they didn't really know what they were doing. Around 5-6 things sorta just clicked for them. Keep in mind they were a good age apart, but they both still figured out games at the same age.

I wont be letting my kids play until their at least five.

Oh goodie. Another comic with a reference to portal, and a really crappy horribly forced reference at that.
You know, I get it, Portal is friggen amazing, webcomic guys need to stop referencing it. It's been done to death now. I don't even like the game anymore because it's been done too much.

These days most companies can make games look this good with little to no effort.
The real question these days is ease of use and extra functionality you get out of the engine. I've never enjoyed using ids engines. They aren't user friendly at all and I find them to be very frustrating.

This is awesome! It's about time they replace the sprites with something of much higher quality.
I'm going to hope this means a new trend as Capcom slowly remakes all the sprites for their games with higher resolution stuff.

Your ... not a real person are you? Your just some sort of joke or something right?
I mean, I can't see anyone being so idiot and blatantly disgregard the fact that sony has done, and continues to do, the exact same thing.

It's just that with Microsoft, they caught it and stopped it before it could become more prolific.

Sony just sat on their asses with the PSP and then suddenly went "Oh wait, this could be a problem."

Personally I respect the companies right to keep their stuff secure. While I don't always like it, it's their own right. More power to 'em. So what if I can't play MAME on my 360. I can on my normal XBox just fine still.

And I'm talking about both Sony and Microsoft here.

I got a 360 about a month ago, and definatly play it more than my other systems (I have all the previous generation systems and a DS)
Though I don't play it as much as I'd like to. Though that can be attributed more towards my new job which leaves me very little free time, and sharing a TV with three younger siblings.

If I had the ability, I'd be playing it a lot more.

This guy is a total douche. He gets no sympathy from me for the way he acted in the phone conversation. Anyone who puts money towards his "mission" is putting it to a worthless cause.
