my main point was that the core system has its place for the "average" gamer that buys 1 or 2 years after launch. This average gamer may not be online and a 3rd party memory card will serve them well. Backwards Compatabilty won't be a bid deal in 1 or 2 years. But then again, the average gamer is mo...

i disgree with you guys saying the core system is worthless and will be discontinued in a few years. On the contrary I think the core system will be become a bigger seller in the later years as more of the masses start upgrading their system. The masses are concerned about lowest price. 2 years from...

thanks for the input. Keep it coming. BTW, I am only interested in adversarial play, not Co-op.

ok, i respect you guys opinions around here. here is the deal. I regular play xbox live with 4-6 of my friends. Here are the games we currently play in order of group favorites. 1) SCCT 2) Racing game - eith toca or PGR2 3) Halo 4) Rivals 5) Burnout 3 I am looking for more fun games suitable for 4-6...

that is the beautiful thing about a free market capitalistic system. You can choose to driver hummers or priuses. Liberals want to regulate and control the world for the "greater good". But a more efficient way is to let gas prices rise and then the demand for better and better priuses and other tec...

just renting. I own madden 2005. EA football games move at a glacial pace and there is no reason to own a copy every year. Last year's version was the best playing madden I have played. I don't think it can get much better with the same engine. Plus I hate to support EA and their lazy, monopolistic ...

for that money i recommend a traditional big screen CRT. With a light controlled room, the picture still can't be beat. Dont worry about burn in as with normal contrast levels and common sense, no burn in occur. I have a 57 inch toshiba for 1499, which i love. I am sure you can get a 51 inch for abo...

I was wondering if you can still actually play an older EA football game online even after a newer version has been released (ie, will i be able to play my buds on madden 2005 on the xbox in september after madden 2006 has already been released). I am interested in keeping madden 05 for online play ...

those have to be either PC screens or replay video

Personally, after 2 years of playing only Sega football, I am looking forward to playing Madden this year. I haven't played a Madden since Madden 2003 so almost everything in 2006 should feel revolutionary to me. You'd be suprised at how similar 2006 will feel to 2003. Remember, EA football games m...

not only have we not seen any real madden next gen footage, we haven't seen any realtime EA next gen footage of any game. What do you expect. EA is always slow to push hardware. They only work when they are pushed. They have only optimized for Sony hardware. I don't expect any games for the xbox 360...

everybody knows that game rags and mainstream online sites don't review or care about sports games. You can pencil in the same scores each year even if gameplay is completely broke. NHL 05, and NCAA 05 got the game scores as their better 04 counterparts.

psychonauts i will give you is pretty cool and innovative. Brothers in Arms looks like another shooter. Its polished, but we have had like 10 ww2 shooters over the last year and about 100 general shooters. By changing the graphical tile set w/ starwars (republic commando) or ww2 (BIA), this does not...

Well several things are probably combining for the general lack of enthusiam 1) its summer and the slowest time of the year for games. 2) its the end of the life cycle of all the major consoles. I am not even eager for any game that is not 360 related. The games are very rehashed now. 3) Lack of any...

I hate to be a broken record, but manu's flops didn't work in the 4th quarter. Manu was flopping offensively and defensively almost at will. The refs are a huge determining factor. If they give manu the calls, that means the spurs offense is basically unstoppable, b/c either manu will get fouled goi...

Is it me or is this the best Horry has ever shot. While Horry has always been clutch w/ 3's in the playoffs, I don't seem to remember him shooting that great of a %. Now he is hitting 50% of 3's. That is tough to beat.

Please respond. I seriously don't know what you are talking about. Is it that the US team had no "skills", no team play, and only athletic ability. I am not sure what is so laughable.

ok I admit it. I don't like ginobili. I know I just shocked all of you. I root against him and his team. It seems like almost every year there is someone team in the finals that is an expert of flopping. I remember in the old utah/jerry sloan days when karl malone and stockton would constantly flop....

what a difference home cooking makes for the pistons....the refs make such a huge impact in the game. Detroit is allowed to play D at home. Ginobili was not getting the calls as he drove to the basket (but he did get a couple of bogus charges). Ginobili would be the kind of guy who would not be good...

there is no way the pistons can beat the spurs. The pistons strength is defense and they can't use any defense b/c ginobilli can just wildly drive to the basket, flail his arms and long hair, and they will call a foul.

nobody has gotten off since the enron scandal. Lay and skilling have yet to be tried. Rich white collars are taking it pretty hard by the feds. Martha going to jail was just to set an example. Lea Fastow did not work for enron and profited on one deal (in which she was punished). Andrew Fastow will ...

ginoblili is very annoying....he is like vlade divac with the arms flailing on every position. And the worst part is that it works. Damn officials give him the calls. I would punish him for his flopping and give the benefit to the defense. Its like the boy who cries wolfe, you just don't believe him...

i think it is b/c we are in a mature video game age. All games are fairly competant, but nothing really changes too dramatically as games tend to be just sequels and the sequels themselves are not much different. Example. Madden has been competant for years. But its pretty much the same game we have...

I have a ps2 as well bdoughty. I bought one at launch. MS has some great things but some bad stuff. Great online, more full featured system (no memory cards, 4 ports, built in online, better graphics). Xbox is great at shooters and racers, but lacking in platformers and game variety. Sony just tends...

cmon vinny-b. This is digital-sportpage, not a childish IGN forum. We here don't fall for the Sony hype. Emotion engine, cell processor, ps2 has toy story graphix, supercomputer gigaflops nonsense. They haven't even finalized specs. No PS3 machine actually exists, just a plastic mockup. Alpha kits w...
