    Yeah Ghost Recon looks very good cant wait to see what other games will look like. See the console itself is out in America around November and then seven days later it is out in Europe and December for Japan.....

    Wasn't Kameo much-delayed on Xbox 1, and got so delayed it's now been shoved in as an Xbox360 launch title?
    And Perfect Dark looks pants. Just saw the shots on 1up, I'm not impressed. I can think of quite a few games this generation that look better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,892 ✭✭✭bizmark


    some real Perfect dark pics up now doesnt look that great tbh ere

    next generation?

    the only image that looks even half impressive (compared to the current cream of the crop (Resi 4, half life 2, republic commandoe) is the skeletons and even then metroid prime did somethign similar already.

    *sigh*

    p.s not a fanboy, just someone sick of the insane build up for these next gen consoles


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,762 ✭✭✭smokingman


    well lads, I have to admit, I'm not impressed in the slightest....

    I've just built myself a PC that's probably more powerful but looks a hell of a lot better!

    The design sucks, why make it look like a pc????
    Won't people just say "hell, my pc looks the same, my pc does the same, my pc IS the same!"

    I was really expecting a bit more...

    Better start saving for those 1080p HDTVs folks

    It's quite a little powerhouse actually, regardless of what sort of PC you have, when this thing launches it will put alot of people's systems to shame...for about 6 months.
    Those PPC 970fx cores are really quite something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,762 ✭✭✭smokingman


    There's no denying (even for Nintendo fanboys like myself :) ) that it's impressive. But swimming through the cloud of marketing c*ap that's been going on all night, I really was expecting they'd wow us but they didn't.

    Every corporate marketing buzz word (where's me bingo card!) I've ever heard got used in that in some way and while the presentation was slick the substance was lacking. Is it backward compatible? Is it normal DVDs that's used? (would be a mistake if it was - Sony could quite easily thrash them for that seeing as the PS3 is most probably using blu-ray or the hybrid they've been talking about). What's the battery life on the wireless controller?
    The way allard was talking, you wouldn't be surprised if it disposes with TCP/IP protocols for a version of their own (you just have to look at xp for indications of that coming down the line in longhorn)

    ...and where's the launch games?
    I've seen ONE game that peaked my interest....and it certainly wasn't perfect dark..

    I'd like to see this do good, really!...competition is what's driving this industry for the last few years and if anything, it's the introduction of the first xbox that led to the Revolution being designed so radically (I hope!)...

    Need convincing here Bill....think I'll just watch this space and wait for the hype to die down


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 142 ✭✭r3boot


    Like most things microsoft, it doesn't seem to tell you much about the actual product.

    Just that its good and thats it !

    (think of all the xp/longhorn crap)

    Its just the way they market their products.

    oh and I agree about the games .... not exactly the best I've seen on a console.
