What do you mean it's gone gold? It hasn't been released yet.
Posted 17 years ago2006-11-02 17:48:54 UTC Post #201717
Yea, I didn't think so. Looks alright, kinda like a hard core ghost recon, which will be fine for me.

The game will be amazing... once it is released. Should knock Halo down quite a bit.

I was browsing the net, and found an article that stated that its gone gold. And I was like, WTF! I missed its release. But ya.. here:

After reading it, I now realise that it is'nt. Odd Title.

I'm up the game. Looks awesome. Once they can keep the 360`s from frying themselves, I`ll buy one and that game.

"Gone gold" is not the same as being released. "Gone gold" means the game is done, the final version of it has been completed, and its awaiting distribution. The release date is usually a couple of weeks afterwards.

As for the game... ugh console :P .

it looks cool i guess, I'm just kinda getting sick of all these gloomy post apocalyptic games, whatever happened to funny light hearted games like duke nukem or serious sam?

Are you Joking?! It looks amazing! Amazing is an under-statement actually. I watched the trailers like 20 times in a row. LAWL

Lead Tester of Dystopia actually WORKS for Epic (the guys making Gears of War) and I've heard only good things. He's a tester or something.

Shame it's on a console. =(

Kudos to Microsoft for securing it. Least it didn't go to the PS3.

Wow, SexBox 3shitsty... original. :>

I've loosely followed Gears Of War, and while the tech certainly is impressive, the game just looks boring. A dark and destroyed city has nothing on the massive outdoor areas, and the smooth look of Halo 3. Although there really is no battle between Gears Of War and Halo 3, they're quite different games.

The 360 is an AWESOME Console! It is in no way Crap. I have it and It is simply amazing. Everything is good about it, it's specs, it's User-Interface, It's Xbox Live System! The only reason why I could see ANYONE calling it crap is if they don't own one for themselves.
Posted 17 years ago2006-11-03 11:15:20 UTC Post #201814
Your funny Exos, why WOULD anyone want that? TV's are crap to game on, those consoles have cheaply made controllers, wich in general have cheap potmeters. Low resolution Graphic wise, and bloody expensive games with no way to expand the system.
Posted 17 years ago2006-11-03 14:49:27 UTC Post #201816
Cheaply made controllers pepper? Come on! Gamecube and PS2 maybe but not 360. It wraps around the hands perfectly, and wireless is perfect.

Low resolution graphics wise? What are you talking about? Not if you have an HDTV, and even without one it still looks good.

Expanding console hardware will never be an option (short of N64's expansion pack, remember that), but its not a drawback. A console experience is uniquely differnent from that of a PC. You can gather up your friends and play together on a PC together in the same room. You cant play against friends in fighting games. you can punch your friend for killing you! THe experince is totally differnent.

I myself like PC gaming and console gaming the same. They both bring different elements to the table. A PC is more personal to the gamer. They built it, they know exactly what it can do, and expansion in any area is possible.

Only thing I dont like about consoles is no modding or mapping for games :(

Both are here to stay :)

Gaming at 640x480? This is 2006, god damn it. And HDTVs are expensive, who has one anyway?

Console gaming is only good for the local multiplayer games, which is hard to achieve using PC (although it can be done). Other than that, honestly, consoles are overpriced toys. I might get a Wii a couple of weeks after its release, but that's as far as I go.

the only thing i like about console gaming is sitting on my big comfy couch instead of hunched over my desk

and if i really felt like it i could set that up with my PC! but i don't because the only reason i leave my PC at night is because the chair starts to get uncomfortable in the wee hours

so

consol gaming < PC gaming

Exos, you're just being a pathetic fanboy, i have access to a 360, i like it, but even i'm ready to admit it's faults. One being it's horrible DVD performance, an other being it's cooling faults.

Cooling on it is fine, Strider. Just keep it in a open space and your good. :)

Of course PC gaming pwns console gaming, but that does not mean to just ignore all consoles. They bring a different gameplay experience. Its always to have a change of pace once and again :)

Err, no. There have been numerous reports of it overheating, people have resorted to making there own cooling modifications to it. Also you shouldn't move it when it's on and a games in it. The laser can mark the CD and ruin it. It has problems.

It doesn't have ANY problems for me. Most people are retarded and develop a problem with it by their own stupidity. If you place anything in an enclosed space, be it a PC or a 360, it can't breathe. I garuntee people did this or another stupid thing and made their own problem, then blamed it on the 360. In all the time I have had 360 there has not been ONE problem.

Excessive fanboy.

In any case, FPS and action games (unless they're mindless platformers) are practically unplayable without a mouse. Yes, that includes the steamy pile of crap that is Halo. Seriously, you can't do shite with a clumsy controller and some over-sensitive analogue sticks.

lol, moving it ruins the Cd. Really? moving any disc drive for a game, being PC, or computer can potentially damage it. Next time your playing a game from CD on your PC turn your PC horizontal. See what happens to the Cd. :)

Were'nt these cooling problems only at launch? I have not heard anything on them for over 7 months now. I have friends who play oblivion non-stop and it never overheats. Seriously, dont believe everything you hear.

Bottom line is, 360 is just teh pwnzorbrompz

What are you lovely laides arguing about now?...

I don't think anyone needs to explain themselves...The way I see it is some people like consoles and some people don't...Get over it.

Since everyone has chucked in some garbage I might as well add to it:

Consoles are well...I used to love them...Thanks to them I became a gamer (All the way back to the SNES) and all I ever did was console this and console that...But the Godly PC came with its unlimited power to make games more fun with 'modifications'...

Now the only time I play console is when a friend comes round or if there's 8 of us and we want to have a laugh on Smash Bro etc...

PC's are excellent, one of the best inventions on the list but the consoles make gaming also differ...In the end any console is just a new PC with nice features...Some developers just choose to work on them because they know people like to play with their friends on a game that involves sitting in the same room...

Ah this is going no-where...Last word: PC pwns but consoles making gaming differ from time to time...Kapeesh.

I'm not even gonna get involved in this argument. It's pointless.

Do any of you 360 owners want to trade gamertags? It'd be useful having someone that I loosley know to pwn, my friends list is... short at the moment. :)

Mine is... 'fourthgen'. Don't look so shocked. :P

I use consoles alot and i like them. Although that could probably be becuase my console is far better then my computer is..:P

Ya, it is stupid to argue over stuff like this, but twhl has not had a good argument thread in a loooong time. Someone needs to come up with some so controversial, so outragous that it creates 20 pages of argument posts in under 5 minutes!

Everyone will have a different opinion and all of them are valid.
If you have a next gen console and you can afford its games, then so much the better. There are always some superb console titles that never make it to the PC.
If you have a PC and you can live with it without needing consoles, then good for you too!
The happiest person is not the one who has the most, but the one that is happy with what he has. Right now I'm doing OK with the mouse and keyboard, as well as a Sidewinder gamepad. For the moment, I have no plans of buying a videogame console. I hardly use my Playstation (bought it in 1999) but I still map for Half-life (bought it in 2000)
Not to mention the fact of game prices. I just bought Colin McRae Rally 2004 for about 9?. I suspect the price would have been different if we were talking about the PS2 version, for example...
