So long as sales of RE4 and Umbrella Chronicles are good, I won't count out RE5 being ported at some point.

Doesn't make it any less stupid. The people who get offended by these things need to lighten up.


Hold your horses there. What may seem stupid to you may not seem stupid to someone else; and what seems great to you may seem childish to someone else (games for instance).

As a Muslim, I can verify that they are clearly saying "Allah hu ackbar" which translates to praise God, for he is great. It is an arabic expression used, but not exclusively, in prayer. While it doesn't offend me that it is in the game, what does offend me is that the so called "enemies" or "savages" are the ones that are chanting it.

Then again, I've dealt with this kinda thing all my life so I don't feel the need to care really. People will be people, and ignorance plays into that. I just wanted to prove a point and show you a different perspective.


Yeah but my perspective is to treat everyone equally. So what if the "bad" guys were chanting that. Is that to say there are no bad muslims in the world? If they were chanting something christian in a game and I had to beat/kill them because they were my enemy I wouldn't care.

Same thing with Italians feeling the Sopranos portrayed us in a "negative" light because they were mobsters. I'm 75% Italian and I could care less.

Unless something is being just plain racist or showing bigotry I don't feel there is a need to censor things.

I defiantly thing the dead 360 issue is over exaggerated, I know at least a dozen people who own 360s and to date I'm the only one who got the ring of death.


But. . . why would you buy a new one and not send it in to be fixed?


Cause when I called up MS said it would cost $150 to send it to them.
So I said f*ck that and I opened it up and did some of the hacks out there that were used to get rid of the ring of death. The hacks extended the life for about 3 extra months, but it finally died a couple weeks ago.

I have no idea what is with the whole 3 year warranty, I think it only covers them fixing it, but it looks like it will still cost you $150 just to get it to them.

I can get $90 back on a broken Xbox360 at GameStop so with that price drop if it effects all systems I might be able to get a replacement core for only $160. $120 if I go with a used one. And I get the GameStop warranty so if it dies or they come out with a new chip set model in the next 90 days I can bring it back and trade it.


So, you're going to reward the company that gives you crap customer service by buying another system from them? weak. (Though I guess it would be gamestop getting the money. . .)

At comic con it was revealed that the season premiere of Family Guy will be an hour long "airplane!" style spoof of the first Star Wars film. Robot Chicken star wars was awesome so I am sure this will be as well =). They also went on to reveal other plots coming up for the season (finally bonnie will give birth!).

Quote

Before audience questions began, the jam-packed room was treated to several clips of what's sure to become a classic episode. Entitled, "Blue Harvest," the season premiere will be an hour-long Airplane style spoof of the first Star Wars film, all with the permission of Lucasfilm. In the hilarious clips, we saw that Peter plays Han, Lois is Leia, Stewie is Darth Vader, Chris is Luke, Brian is Chewbacca and Quagmire and Cleveland are C3-PO and R2-D2 respectively. The scenes shown had the crowd roaring with laughter.

The panel then gave small glimpses of episodes being prepared for the upcoming season. Some of what we can expect included an episode where Brian starts to show his age and the Griffins get a new dog. Another episode has Peter believing he's a pirate and includes a five-minute scene of Peter attempting to pick something up. There will also be episodes where Bonnie gives birth, Peter discovers he's an illegal alien who was born in Mexico and Goldman accidentally travels back to Nazi Germany and must be rescued by Brian and Stewie. Yet another episode that has us excited involves three parodies of Stephen King films, including a Misery segment staring Brian and Stewie.

Someone pointed this out in another thread but the Xbox 360's price lacks the 99 at the end of the price. Leading many to think it is fake.

Edit: although this has surfaced now as well.

So I stand corrected, a price drop may indeed be coming.

Not like I care I wouldn't buy an Xbox 360 anyway (chance my system could repeatedly break down? no thanks.).

I know it's hard to symphathize when you it doesn't really pertain to your i.e. religion, culture etc.


Ah but how do you know it doesn't?

So you're saying Metroid Prime was the best game last generation?



lol.


For Cube? Yeah Prime is well . . . I don't want to call it the best ONE of the best is for sure. RE4, WW and ED come to mind as some of my other contenders for best GC game last gen.

Nope, actually they are made by different people. Capcom was the team in charge of the SNES Aladdin game and Virgin Interactive was responsible for the Sega game. They were two different games =).

I have a question for Nintendo...WHY DONT YOU COUNTER THE HALO SERIES...so far what I've seen from peers is, Halo = decent multiplayer shooter game(looks back at N64 Golden Eye..Where did you go!). All Nintendo has to do is release a shooter game with minimum story line campain mode and focus more on Multiplayer (Levels, Weapons, Modes, Chars) and BOOM...Half of those who own a Wii and are waiting for Halo 3 wont need to go buy a 360.


Well the easy answer is, Nintendo's never really done a FPS game in lines with Halo (Metroid is far more a FPA than FPS and it doesn't have the multiplayer that Halo players look for). Even looking back at GoldenEye, that was made by Rare.

If you want to know "where" goldeneye went, look no further than the Timesplitters franchise. Most of the key members behind Goldeneye went on to form Free Radical Design. Playing TimeSplitters: Future Perfect was loads of fun because it was very reminiscent of goldeneye while being challenging, funny and unique in it's own right.

I just don't see Nintendo really being the ones to make that "Halo"-esk game that some people want on the Wii.

I thought SE had already announced, in a sort of round about way, that they were going to be doing DQ remakes/ports on the DS. They said something about wanting to remake or port a couple of the earlier games to the DS before they released IX. Now someone's listing it as a rumor. Umm... I think it's a littler better than a rumor when the developer has already said that they would like to do that.


Well if you can find a source that SE said they are definitely releasing the games then I guess it would be fair to remove the "rumor" mark. It's good to remember that just because a developer says they would "like to do" something doesn't mean it will happen.

I miss Kirbys Dreamland, I loved that game on GB. Stupid lost GB cartridges.

The Kirby game on GBA (Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland) was also a lot of fun.
