Wii is a party machine, it doesn't realy hold up to day to day gameing.


anyways back to Gundam 00, The Trinity Team IS Ceslestial Being team 2. The use a mothership with both a Gigantic beam cannon and the matching (red) GN drive [T] or the GN drive Tau. Two of the new gundams can join for a large beam attack, or all three for a rediculously large beam attack.

peace.

Whenever the Console wat breaks out, it never ends well.

A few points that I'd like to make.
I love the 360, price being a good reason, as well as a few very good exclusives along with the rest of the shared games. Gears of War, along with the Sequal, Dead Rising, and many others are just perfect.

Resitance is fun, but just didn't feel right to me. gameplay seems a bit too.........well.....................Medal of Honor-ish to me, healthbars are a thing of the past, makes the game boring when you are low on health and cant find any refills, which breaks up the action quite easily.

Red Ring is annoying, which is mostly MS being lazy and not trying to pro-actively fix the problem themselfs, instead waiting for people to get the RROD, then fixing the system for them with about a month's wait. I've had this problem a week ago, and Withdraw from CoD is never fun, especially when ur friends are climbing the ladder while ur at a standstill.


Points to prove the 360's success: lust look at how many exclusives the PS3 has lost already. DMC4, GTA4, Ace Combat 6(sry, im a fanboy to the series, nothing compares to soaring through the skies shooting enemies down). Im crossing my fingers that MGS4 gets ported to the 360, while highly unlikely, would be Awsome.


Fanboyism has nothing to do with it. PS3 has many problems, especially with Backwards Compatibility. Also, lets take a look at Japan, more or less the birthplace of the PS3, they're still making games for the PS2, ACE3 being one of them, which is a game that I love so. PS3 lacks good exclusives, along with the blu-ray being a bit too early for its time, driving up the price a bit too high.






Ok, let's think about this a bit mroe rationally, RTS Games on the console......

Has any precious trials ever worked out at all? it's not a good idea. along with the fact that Im still a bit pissed off at MS due to its announcement of Halo Wars, a Console-based RTS game. which killed off a very prominent mod for C&C Generals. and honestly, the mod actually looked like alot more fun than what I've seen for Halo Wars.

I own all 3 systems now since im a fan of all of them. I have to say right now that the one drawback to the PS3 is its lack of games. However in my opinion most game do look better on the PS3 but I mean its not a big enough difference to choose one over the other. I own a lot more games for the 360 now but ive had it for a while longer. But PS3 is a lot more affordable than it used to be, I dont know why its 700 dollars for you SG but around here you can get it for 400 which is only 50 more than the 360. Anyway they are both good buys in my opinion.

Now the Wii will rule all once the new Super Smash Brother Brawl comes out!

This is hardly a plus since the 360 barely has it. There is only a small list of games that can and even if they are on the list they are horribly jumpy and laggy.

[Crusader]

true, but ps2 games are actually fun, and I actually want to play PS2 games.


Also they're still making mroe PS2 games lol

The thing about Resistance is that the sequel(Yeah there making it) will be awesome.

* Two campaigns
o A single-player campaign starring Nathan Hale in the USA
+ Hale is shot down in Iceland, escapes to the US and becomes part of a program called "Sentinels"
+ The game is set in the '50s, with a more modern U.S. landscape as well as a focus on the aerial side of the Chimeran attack.
o A co-op campaign for 8 players online, 2 players locally, based on single-player campaign.
* 60 players online
o Players form 4-8 man squads in the lobby with different objectives, so online plays like an epic battle
o There are character classes. Currently revealed classes are:
+ Tank for heavy weaponry
+ Special Ops for distance
+ Medic
o Dedicated gaming community and servers; includes the fastest matchmaking system on consoles yet. Dedicated servers.
o Seperate stat server; lot's of stat tracking tied with communtiy features of MyResistance.net
o Difficulty is scaled in co-op depending on your team's skill level
o Online, you are teamed with people of your skill level.
o Mobile phone quality headset voice transfer
* The power of the PS3 tapped even more
o Much better AI
+ There are scaled to the player, so enmies close to you run more advanced scripts than those from far away.
o More enemies onscreen
o Better lighting and shaders
o Textures look amazing close-up and far away
o Partial randomized geometry in level spots means a slightly different level each time you play.
o Boss fights in FPS gaming finally "done right"
o New vehicles include the Chameleon, a Stalker with an invisibility cloak.
* "It is, in short, a tour de force for the untapped might of the PlayStation 3"
* "Resistance 2 will be too epic to dismiss as anything but one of the biggest, boldest, and most high-reaching titles of 2008. It's a game that won't be ignored."
* Coming Fall 2008

It's called i'm Australian and game companys completely forget that they have fans outside of America so they charge ridiculous prices for everything-ism.

and Soul, the PS3 version of AC does look worse and has framerate issues, fact.

I gotta get a new tv soon, so I might aswell take Harvey Norman up on their offer and get one for free with a new tv.

[Dark Lord Revan]

Actually, there are no more framrate issues on my Ac since it was patched. Yes lighting and colours look abit washed out on ps3 version, but i dont expect anything else from ubisoft, since they're a bunch of closet ps3 haters.

The fact is that the ps3 came out later, and since the 360 IS a good platform in some senses, developers are lazy to learn a new framework. They'd rather port. The problem isnt with the system, its with the developers. Its how the industry works really, why learn something new when there's something good here?

Ps3 doesnt lose exclusives cause the ps3 is bad. Or ps3 is difficult to work with. Or ps3 has lousy support. They lose it cuse the way the corporate minds work, 'Go with something safe' which means, well, do everything on 360. At least there's a confirmed market there. Developers then make stuff up about why they cant work with the ps3 because they're trying to protect their reps.

Too few developers, mostly independent ones, try to publicly shoot them down for falsely badmouthing the ps3.

Why did ps2 win the last war? The xbox was a better console spec wise. Personally i just think ps3 can overcome this bias hurdle. We'll just have to see right? We're only into the second year of the war.

Finally someone with sense .

[Stargazer]

The PS2 won last year because of game selection.

but Xbox 360 has got it this generation.

so many exclusives have jumped ship.

but think about it from a business point of view? why put your product on the losing console? why make less money then you can?

but anyway, this next gen wars talk is pointless, the winner has already been decided, the Nintendo Wii, and it doesn't even have a good game selection and it's outsold both.

glad I bought one and got two free though.

[Crusader]

PS3 also has the HUGE issue of overcomine the shadow of the PS2, a system which was so successful I think few other consoles can even compare.

[Stargazer]

Wii can compare, it will pass it aswell.

[Crusader]

True, now if only the Wii can get some more games, then we'll have the package deal.


Hmmmm...........I WANT BRAWL!!!!!

[Stargazer]

I WANTZ BRAWL AND NO MORE HEROES!

[Dark Lord Revan]

Dude...everyone wants brawl...BRAWL...BRAWL....man why do they delay it soooo....

[Stargazer]

You can create your own stages...

EPIC!!!!!

[Crusader]

INDEED!!!!!.


That and also.....

SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




btw new 00 episode is out, thought I'd attempt to bring us back on topic lol

[Stargazer]

yea, it sucked.

poor Patrick deserves to be treated better.

These new characters are as two dimensional as the original CB team.

Poor Randy and Stuart, I salute you by brave Overflags.

it's depressing that this shit is going to get a second series.

It really pisses me off. How could a series with so much potential to being great, end up
sucking so much. There is like no character development at all and the plot is so uneventful
that I lost all interest in it. It was bad enough that the original 4 gundams raped the shit out of
everything, but now we have 3 more even godlier gundams? How does that make sense or even
remotely interesting? I think the series would have been better if the Trinity didn't exist and if the
enemy was able to capture at least 1 gundam or maybe 2, because then it would have been something
more interesting to watch.

[Stargazer]

THANK GOD!

A like minded individual who likes Quality.

[Dark Lord Revan]

I completely disagree. I dont like EITHER possible plots. This current one, or your hypothetical one.

I hate this one now, cuse of 3 things. 1: It has a recap episode. I have massive allergies to recap episodes. 2: The plot has just gotten too damn predictable. Final bosses for this series, better than 50% chance of it being trinity. Either CB splinters, or the four orignal meisters leave CB to fight trinity. 3: Maybe the 4 first meisters were pretty average characters...but the 3 new ones are completely blasted shallow. WTF. I did already say before that i really disliked the 3 new gundams too.

I actually have 4 but the last one is pretty trivial. PATRICK STILL ISNT DEAD. DAMN.

If it had gone the other way, ie no trinity and one or two gundams being captured...god that would be the most cliche plot ever created, especially for gundam. It's just a variation of gundam-jack, and ive seen that far to much already.

Somewhere the writers fell asleep on this series. It feels like destiny in that respect.
