- Re: Here's footage of that hidden detonate-the-nuke MW2 mode
To anyone complaining about it being on the disc...
Who cares? I mean, sure, it does suck to withhold content if it is done and especially on the disc, yes. But I personally don't mind as I feel I got my $60 worth already. Sure the single player is short, but I know I will play through it at least 2 more times. Plus I haven't even touched the spec-ops yet. Most importantly, I already logged on about a day and a half TOTAL hours of multiplayer. And I am sure I will triple that before wanting new content.
So if you want to break it down in the classic "time:money" ratio, I figure I am paying about $1.15 per hour so far. And that number will drop significantly in the coming months. Not to mention I got $20 gift card from amazon with it (that I am guaranteed to spend) so in reality I paid $40, dropping the price even further.
Bottom line is, I got my money's worth and then some. Especially compared to a LOT of other games out there at the same price point.
I will gladly support the game's future DLC even if it is on the disc. It just hopefully means less download time when the time comes. ... view replies

God. Another day another anti-spin from your-doucheness. Seriously, Jim, you are the most annoying fanboy on the internet. Somehow you get paid for this? You are the sole reason Destructoid is just mediocre rather than GREAT. I can get less biased and wannabe attempts at humor from the IGN360 boards.
I think I am pretty much done with this site. Between your constant anti sony drivel and dude that said Steve Avary got what he deserved because he ruined the Silent Hill movie... Destructoid in my book is a fucking joke. Peace. ... view replies

- Re: Review: Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon
I really hate to be a spoiled graphics whore... but I can't help to think, especially looking at how beautiful the game looks already, that these latest Atlus releases would be so much better on the newer systems.
Again, yes, a lot of new games have spoiled me, but that does not mean I can't appreciate a good game regardless. I can always go back to the "classics" and be fine with them. But trying to get into a new game with washed out, pixelated graphics is a lot harder for me these days.
I played through P4 completely, but almost every other minute I kept imagining how good it COULD look rather than how good it actually did. ... view replies

You know, I really hate to say a site or a blogger is biased, and I know you have been accused of it before Jim, but come fucking on.
You completely spun the entire article. You took one statement out of context and made it seem like Sony was being a big baby about it all. 'Wah, competition sucks'.
What I got out of the article was that they were happy with the sales and that they are "honored" that it is doing well in a sea of cookie-cutter IP. Stating that yes, it may have sold well at a different time when you didn't have Gears "2" or Fallout "3" or even Resistance "2", highly established franchised games all releasing at the same time.
They state that it makes it tough to compete, obviously, but they definitely didn't seem to be saying in any way whatsoever 'damn those other games for existing'. They seem happy that it is doing so well IN SPITE of those games releasing at the same time. ... view replies

@ John B
You got me curious. Currently the Xbox 360 120GBHD retails for $149.99. There are at least 5 laptop 120GBHD's at about $50 on newegg right now. Plus quite a few 120-200GB external drives at about $60 each.
I know this is an old argument, but I still find it funny that everyone is saying how "generous" MS is being here... ... view replies
- Re: Microsoft offering Arcade/Core Xbox 360 owners free and cheap memory solutions
@whatisdelicious
While I commend MS for extending some help, they really had no other choice in the matter. Is the 'experience' gonna be a required download to be on live? Can you imagine them forcing millions of people to upgrade their systems to run a new interface?
On top of that, again, yes, this is a great deal that is coming out of their pockets so to speak, but don't act like they haven't been raping customers from the start with that extremely overpriced proprietary HD. I am sure they have a little expendable cash in that specific department. ... view replies

They left out a few just to be asses... There are more than 10 exclusive titles worth playing at this very moment. Folklore is decent (playing through it right now), but I guess that isn't Screw Attack's cup o' tea (but Superman 2 is? heh heh heh...).
Eye of Judgment is also out now (though not for me, still is a pretty cool idea) and Drake's is next week.
Anyway, they have a good amount of exclusives worth playing and the list will grow and grow. God of War 3, MGS4, FF13, White Knight Story, Unreal Tournament, LittleBigPlanet, Haze, Time Crisis 4 and Valkyrie of the Battlefield just to name a few. Not to mention all the original PSN content coming out as well.

- Re: The UK has too many broken 360s for one country to handle
I live in the US. My first Premium XBOX red ringed and I gave it to my friend (who got it fixed with MS's extended warrenty last year). I kept the HDD and bought a core system and that broke. I sent it in and have had it for 2 months now and it has not died yet, but all the warning signs are there. The interface (such as friends list) freezes and tons of my games are getting disc read errors so much so that I am basically stuck playing Live games.
I am afraid it is going to brick again... I don't want to put up with having to send it back again. I love the system but it is pretty much bullshit. Waiting for a class action lawsuit ;) ... view replies
