@fuchikoma: Aye. Can't see how Apple is at fault here.

I just wish players who quit would be replaced ala Call of Duty4/MW2. Neither of those are perfect online but at least when a bunch of people quit, they are replaced.

@AOClaus: Well if you are playing to have fun, you wouldn't worry so much about losing, so Winning should be your preference.

@Evdor: I actually think its the opposite. A lot of the MLG halo players hate losing, more than anything. They for sure are going to have the preference set to winning, and i suspect the more casual players would still prefer to win, rather than lose.

For Nintendo, no other game franchise has captured my imagination like the Zelda games. Its cliché the whole... boy in green saving the world but hey, if its not broken, don't fix it.

Typically i'm turned off from a game, just by hearing its got an subscription fee attached to it (though WoW was always my exception), a lot of my friends are similar. I don't personally see how they can have a traditional MMO pricing structure and at the same time have twists to it... Most MMOs might give you a…

@bobbo8u: Agreed.

Well if the 360 slim is true, heres hoping they go out on a limb and stop using cheap DVD drives. Heck, instead of a tray, give us a slot loader.

@Sloopydrew: I just wish they did a better job at repairing the old 360s. Since it seems more like a band aid job, more than anything else. Oh and if it does happen to run out of warranty (the extended 3 years RRoD) then you get RRoD again, your *hit out of luck unless you cough up almost 3/4 the price it would cost…

@mrpibb79: The newer 360's have much smaller power bricks than the original. Not as small as the Wii's but still pretty small compared to the literally bricks launch owners had.

Not really surprised are we? One of the best selling games this generation, which also happens to come from Activision (biggest money milker and watering down franchises like theres no tomorrow), trying to milk as much possible money out of its dlc.

@johnLD: Yeah MW2's spawning is pretty awful. I mean, it sucks being camped if you have a bad team that isn't good enough to push the other team back, but its worse if someone spawns literally 2 feet behind you, gets a free kill just because of the messed up spawn system.

Thank god the fake rumour of shipment coming back is false. I mused to curse every time in headquater games when that came up. Stupidly small map for the amount of players actually in that gametype.

@Pixel Breaker: My sarcasm detector might be a bit off but a team full of riot shields or people using just rangers is going to fail pretty hard. Its ridiculously easy to shoot someone using a riot shield in the feet or in the side. Rangers are only good on a very few maps, like Skidrow.

@netMASA: Wouldn't have worked anyway because it was only up on the marketplace for redeem codes, so not buyable.

@Poopdood: That was awesome. Wouldn't have believed that was possible if i hadn't seen it.

@FeatherNET [ :D ]: You know people won't read that. Just like when Bungie went independent, people assumed Halo was also going multiplatform.. which it wasn't of course, just like these won't.

Yeah $200 seems like a lot of money to part with for just a faceplate, but its not really unheard of for the 360 faceplates to sell well. I remember people selling Blue Dragon faceplates on ebay for $50 (possibly even higher in some cases), which is still crazy profit for the person selling it.

@dowingba: Yup completely correct and at the end of the day, you can make a game like Starcraft work with a regular controller, just like how EA have made C&C games work with a controller. It'll work, but most people would still prefer the mouse/keyboard over it simply because its probably still easier and more…

@escapefairfax: The problem with your examples, is there is different expectations for different services. They aren't the same and aren't treated as such. When someone buys a game, they expect to get everything on that disc and at the end of the day, that shouldn't be too much to expect, since publishers can always…
