Rihab Complex Rocks!

oh how i miss playing video games : ( wish i can have free time as much as before : /

I’m not a big of Kotaku; it’s one of those videogames blogs that generate traffic by posting misleading headlines and edited press scripts. Not to mention the fanboyism that most of its editors and commentors possess toward certain videogame consoles. However, I do visit it every day when I feel like reading articles that reek with sarcasm and hilarious commentaries.

Angelo, the reason I read Kotaku is because these guys are always making comments.. don’t really care about the games as much as their sarcasm as you said! hahaha

:: And whats wrong with the 2nd guy from the left side? he is not saluting !

@ Frankom, That would be me.

I actually didnt sleep for over 24 hrs. I didnt realize we were saluting 😛 i just woke up, i should go play MGS4 😛

The ones that are in the picture are the European version check the links below for confirmation:

BTW there are differences between the U.S and the European version not just the covers.

:: I’m going to buy PS3, any idea about PS4 ?

lool..Kuwait a minute!

Sucks for me. For us stuck stateside, I guess we’re gonna have to pull out the sleeping bags and start camping out. This game is so worth it, I’m a hardcore MGS nut.

BTW Mark, iPhone 3G is out in two days. Going for half the price as the original, so it comes out to about $60.

i remember this mo-hat guy fighting with me on the forums saying that the xbox is the best and ended up being the 1 of the people who were earliest to buy it

lol, sorry I meant KD, not $ :D. Yeah it’s true that you’re stuck with AT&T for now, but hopefully someone will figure out a way to unlock it sooner or later. I know it’s going be harder to do this time around since the phone can only be unlocked IN an AT&T store rather than online as was the case with the original iPhone, but we’ll see what happens.

It’s an awesome phone. The only thing I find frustrating is that they kept the crappy 2 mp camera.

WTF ISF-Man? you have an ISF cool dude send me som pic please

i love you guys

No offense Mo hat 😉

haha game geeks are fun to tease!

coz u have started it mot-hat.bitch

Nerds

A friend of mine got it yesterday from Rihab for KD20

ummm dude, if you check games like GTA, Assassins Creed, Call of Duty etc.. you will see that the graphics are practically the same on both systems. So even though the PS3 is slightly more powerful, the games look the same on any system.

Now if you put aside the graphics, the 360 has xbox live which is a much larger community than the PS3 has.

Also because the 360 has been out for longer there are wayyy more games on the 360.

Finally the PS3 lost most of their exclusive titles, what do they still have, GranTurismo and Metal Gear?

So IBM could be using the same chip like the PS3 for their super computer but for us gamers all we care about are… the games.

Mark, multi-platform games tend to be as good as the weakest system allows, so they’re not a proper way to gauge a system’s performance. To do that, it’s more valuable to compare games that show each system at it’s best. The PS3 is not slightly more powerful; it’s a lot more powerful. It’s just that we’re yet to see games that truly push each system to the limit. Once we get to that point, we will truly begin to see the advantages of the PS3’s hardware. With the release of MGS4 (probably the first game to begin to push the PS3), we’re already starting to see an advantage with huge ammount of information packed into the double layer Blu-ray disc, which makes for much faster loading and allows us to have the entire game on one disc rather than multiple ones.

Xbox Live does have a larger community than that of PSN, but that’s not really going to affect your gameplay because you already have enough people on both networks to satisfy your immediate multiplayer needs, so it’s not like you’ll be stranded with no one to play with. What it comes down to, really, is which network has more of your friends on it.

The 360 does have more games, but really, how many of those are exclusives that are truly worth picking sides over? Besides Halo and Gears of War, not much imho. The PS3 is just getting started (after a long wait, I admit), but you can look forward to quite a few exclusive killer apps, such as Resistance 2, Final Fantasy 13, Killzone 2 (ridiculous graphics), SOCOM, and obviously the MGS franchise, to name a few.

Guess I qualify as a fanboy, although I own both systems :P.

Mark, I agree that there hasn’t been alot of games on the ps3, but it will hopefully pick up. About the xbox live, wait untill playstation HOME is up and running….i bet u it will be the number 1 social service available. Now if u really want to compare the experience, u have to agree that the xbox controllers are shit.

True, games like GTA, assassin’s creed, CoD4…etc are the same, but as i’ve said previously MGS4 is the FIRST game to use the machine’s capabilities to the fullest.

Not to the fullest yet kwt23, it’s always a console trend to have most of the power unleashed by the last run. SNES, PS1 and PS2 had great games in their final years because programming becomes easier once solid libraries are developed.

I think PS3 will get a nice going now after MGS, cause with even all those bitchy reviews they can’t go and say Xbox 360 version is better cause there is no Xbox 360 version. Final Fantasy will be the mark of more PS3 sales…it kicked PSP up and it will do the same with PS3.

I always said Sony should have had a Final Fantasy game as a launch title to kick PS3 into the top.

@Anonymous,
Whining is what makes us human. Please don’t tell us to stop. 🙂

If you want to talk about pushing a console to it’s limit, you should have a look at Ratchet & Clank. Sometimes I forget to play the game just to sit and feel amazed by the graphics. It’s like a pixar movie that you control.

And Mo-Hat, if that’s really you, you look like a total nerd.

@ Mo Hat and Q80Warlock: u need to update ur info guys, the MGS4 DOES use the console to its fullest. Actually, Hideo Kojima had made the game but unfortunately the capabilities of PS3 can’t handle it. Then he thought of making two CD’s for the game (Yes, MGS4 could’ve been a two BLU RAY disc). Then Hideo Kojima cut out from the game some more up to the point where the ps3 can handle it. As for wut u said about the console will get better games later, that’s cuz it gets tweaked more and more. My original point is not to have an argument, but to tell everyone that PS3 is better than X360, but game developers aren’t helping the ps3 and that’s why u have more games on the X360.

kwt23 thats exactly what i have been trying to say for a long time but this mo-hat nerd dosent understand instead he start kind of a fight with me as u can see in the upper posts but maybe he has realised the ps3 is way way better then piss-box 360 thats why he is not posting anymore.

fix-you, this is not a fight…it’s facts. Mark, i fail to see why u think it’s sad if MGS4 is using the fullest ps3’s capabilities. MGS4 is a very strong game, and the console’s capabilities are meant to be reached.

kwt23, excuse me but does the game being on 2 BD’s (not CD’s this is PS3) mean the console can’t handle it ! Kojima was just pulling strings about how the console can’t take it just to get more Dev Tools from Sony, he said the same thing about MGS2 and Snake Eater.

I agree about the developers part, most of today’s developers relay on Dev-kits unlike the old timers who study the basic insides and out of programming a hardware device. MS was very generous at giving out cheap ass Dev-Kits with alot of ready out of the box routines…for our humble lazy developers of this age.

Why Xbox 360 -> PS3, because PS3 never had good launch titles. 360 had about a year head start, MS gave out Dev-kits at cheaper prices than Sony…MS burns it’s money to market 360 and the titles (ala Kears of War, Halo 2…I mean 3 duh ) !

Q80Warlock: u said it urself, 360 had one full year ahead, so u can’t compare the 360 to PS3…that would be unfair. You should compare the PS3 NOW to the 360 a year ago. The PS3 has many big titles already, one exclusive title that nobody credited was Resistance: Fall Of Man, i believe that it’s one of the most powerful online games to debut on the PS3. But yeah, u do agree that the consoles hype depends on the developers which aren’t helping the PS3, but that doesn’t mean that the X360 is better.

well that’s maybe ‘cuz u never played the game Mo Hat. Resistance has one of the best online multiplayer gaming…but u probably don’t realize that cuz it’s not a big title/franchise like halo 3 or gears of war.

sfsa78: forget CoD … MGS4 online is out now…check it out urself. That’s all i’m saying.
