danman31 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 5, 2013 -> 12:56 PM) I still need to finish Uncharted 3. >. Aww man. That's a quality game. I go back in my mind whether I like 2 or 3 better. Initially I think I liked 2 better because it had more epic set pieces, but 3 doesn't have any annoying parts. Naughty Dog is incredible. Sure seems like Last of Us is living up to even their own ridiculously high standards. I'm getting this day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 David Hayter is not returning to voice Snake in the next Metal Gear game, instead they have chosen Keifer Sutherland. Hayter seems a bit pissed about it too Ah well,Can't fault @realkieferGreat actor, good man.The game will probably still be excellent.Like New Coke! — David Hayter (@DavidBHayter) June 6, 2013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayter seems a bit pissed about it too WTF...I don't get this all. David Hayter IS Solid Snake & Big Boss. Why replace him with a more expensive voice actor? And I'm just going to hear Jack Bauer the whole time playing now. Edited June 6, 2013 by Chicago White Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's to the point where I am strongly considering a switch to PS4. I probably won't buy it till the second price reduction, unless f***ing Microsoft takes away XBox Live for the 360 shortly after launch too, in which case that system becomes f***ing useless. At this rate, I could see them switching off live services prior to the One even being launched. They are really, really screwing the pooch on this one. Honestly, I don't think there's any way I can go back to XBox at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by how much money Sony made off the PS2 after the PS3 released why would Microsoft stop producing the 360 for at least 2-3 years?

Jake Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I was already down on XBOX because I hated paying for my connection to the internet -- how many ways do I have to pay to watch some god damned Breaking Bad...cable, Netflix, Xbox? Now this s*** takes it to a whole new level. I often bought used games because 50 bucks is a lot for me, even for a game I'm excited for. I'm probably going to go without a game system, get a Roku, and find non-gaming ways to occupy my time. If I get a windfall, I'll get a PS4.

I was being somewhat facetious, but they discontinued the XBox 3 years after the release of the 360. The PSOne/PlayStation original was discontinued in 2006, 6 years after the PS2 release date; the PS2 wasn't discontinued until January of THIS YEAR, which is, again, a little more than 6 years after the inital release of the PS3. Just going through all of this, which company do you think has a better PR department?

You're going to end up spending $600-700 on it and there will be mechanical bugs like crazy. Get a second or third generation 3-4 years down the line once they've fixed most of the bugs, the system itself is more cosmetically appealing, and it's $200-400 cheaper.

I was debating PS3 vs 360 when I was buying it, and chose the 360 based on having games for it already. I've literally played those original games for a combined 8 hours. That was very sound reasoning on my part. Pretty sure I was drinking quite a bit at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think my Xbox 360 has ever not been online. For most people it's not an issue, but it limits their audience a little bit. I'm pro-PS, but there's nothing to say they won't put similar used game/always online measures. They haven't announced anything yet. Maybe they won't because MS went first, but it seems unlikely for MS to go this alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
