PGR3 - 8.8 (not enough novelties from PGR2, but verry pretty at 720p/1080i)
NBA 2k6 - 7.8
Kameo - 8.4 (a lot of levels give impression it was developped for a standard XBox but with higher texture quality)
Madden - 8.0 (hmm...)
Have a peep if you are interested in these launch titles :)

Seems a tad bit too high, for a piece of crap.
~lol no challenge option in madden06
fuck EA
you formed that opinion after putting in a couple of hours with each game right?Quote:

Not enough to hook me into buying a system though.
Someone send me 1 HDTV and 1 XBox 360.
it's when you do a surprise, yet expected appearanceQuote:

The 360 version of NBA 2K6, in particular, screams WTF!- The players were all redone in super-high res (look great), but the rest of the game (courts, cheerleaders, menus, other stuff) was supposedly left just like it was in the regular XB version. Too weird, and just screams of lazy programming job.
Or a rush job to get it as a launch title.Quote:

PGR3 Review:
Graphics : These are just gorgeous-looking cars. There are more lively courses, and the framerate is always over 30.
LMAO! Fuck this shit they should be a solid 60 fps! Have we even moved on from the last gen?
OVER 30! OMFG LINEUP AT WALMART FOR TEH UPGRADE. X-Box 1.5 is out!
It's no PS3...which can do an amazing 120FPS!!!!!! :kekeke:Quote:

Hahahahahahahahhahahh.
polygons, fps, physics, particle effects, 720p/1080i, etc. etc.
doesn't anyone realize these games will most likely be the same as last gen, but with a nicer coat of paint?
Fact of the matter is, the lead time to get games out the door in time for launch really doesn't allow the developers enough time to squeeze out the full potential of the system. It's not the developers' fault, it's mainly because the hardware has become increasingly advanced and complex to program for.

Quit chuggin' t3h Hatorade! :mad: :kekeke:
Why don't you quit chuggin Bill's Sapstick?
They've shown me that they're (relatively) dedicated to bringing out 2d games that other game companies won't, and these titles have had new life breathed into them via XBL.Quote:

GUTTED.
I'm not hating, I just think it'll take some time aftet the launch till we see the real power of the next gen and the games that will take advantage of the system's potientialQuote:

Yeah, of course it always takes awhile to get familiar with new hardware, but it's looking pretty good already. Rarely are console launches as miraculous as they hyped up to be, but I think this one's a nice jump just like any other.Quote:

I know I sound like a fanboy, but I really don't care - they've won me over, and I'll continue supporting them until they start pulling Sony's bullshit. Fucking spyware on a CD that YOU pay for? WTF?
They jury's still out on the big N, I'm rooting for them though.
"On my grandma partna all haters go to hell."
Eh, I'm not so big on getting a 360 right away now.
I don't think those games are bad, but no killer apps.
The other issue I have with this system is that they only waited 4 years really to release it which is really a short span considering the PS2 is over 5 years now.
The DS is the most exciting system out currently.
How funny is it that a hand held system is whipping its console competitors?
Personally, I'm waiting for the PS3. Sure it'll suck too, but all I need is Ridge Racer (Sorry RR on XB360 just doesn't work)
This is what worries me the most. I don't like the shortening of a consoles life. People don't seem to want to say anything about it though. I remember that the Xbox came out 4 years ago. I don't like this. If they realize they will lose again how long will they wait before they throw out the Xbox 720?Quote:

I'm interested to know what Japanese gamers will be getting for the launch, and how well the console will be received. I don't see any ads for it other than in the gaming press. Is this any different elsewhere?
my bad, not "japanese games" but "games released in japan"Quote:

lol
Please someone wake me up when the Rev is released.
Seriously, the XB360 screens are a fucking JOKE. All that they had promised were graphics, and even that they aren't able to deliver.
you obviously know nothing
MS struck a deal with clarasoft, you know that 'company' who makes their anti spyware beta, well, suprisingly they have a contract with clarasoft to let all of their spyware through the net, as its their spyware net, and their fish, so lets make the wholes bigger for _that company.
stop being so blinkered. :shame:

Im sure MS will increase the compatibility list for all 3 regions over time. And then the Japanese will finally get to play barbie horse adventure in all its 720p glory.

Putting spyware on free products is different than putting spyware on media that you pay for. It's still fucked up, and I'm not saying that Microsoft hasn't done their fair share of fucked up things over the years, but Sony has been really shady lately. Paying off DJ's to play their shitty music 24/7 is another one of their latest stunts.
kameo --- what a revolution!
Maybe it's due to my gender, but I really liked Kameo...I played it at EB Games, and I thought it was fun. I thought the X360 graphics were pretty fucking good- then again, it was on a pretty decent high-def TV screen. I'm sure I won't be able to tell the difference in graphics on my home TV set, but it looked nice at the station. I'm glad Kameo is coming with the console- Call of Lameness 2 for X360? NO THNX. I'll just play it for PS2=\
