so..... just one so far then. Gotcha

Seriously, why can't we just enjoy games we like to play? Battle of the exclusives are pointless (even more for multiconsole owners). :/

 

some people take this stuff way to seriously.....all they care about is their beloved system having some nice scores a bunch of reviewers came up with.

banjo, gears & left 4 dead will be played by me AAA or not...

 

easy guys, Remember, I wasn't the one who bought it up. Heck, I own a 360 myself. Just found it funny when people started calling games that hasn't even been reviewed "AAA games".

I mean, it's okay with Starcraft does it, he's a 'contributor'. But let's keep the hype to minimal. Don't want to eat crows do we?



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

Trust me, nobody is going to eat crews if they are true gamers. They shouldn't give a damn about the AAA argument.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Actually, I do, I only buy games with 85 and above ratings. With limited budget, I'm not going to waste my 60+ dollars on an average game.

I think I'll rent it out, although I wasn't a big fan of the first.

How can you go wrong when you hear names like Banjo, Gears of War, a game from Valve? Same can be said about Resistance (from Insomniac), or whatever! :/

For your budget, it's good, but when you try to build an argument about which console has the best games by listing ''AAA titles,'' your title should be no less than ''a fanboy.'' I'm not specifically talking about you, but I've seen this a lot here.

So after 18 reviews, Gears 2 is sitting very (expectedly) pretty at 95. Friday cant come soon enough.

And then tonight is all Fallout 3, and my replacement Fable 2 disc just arrived.

Pretty good day :)

Haha, have fun with Fallout 3. It's pretty good for a Bethesda game (and good for a Fallout game as well, jeez...)!

Don't want to beat a dead horse hear, but I thought the three that was originally referred to were Fable 2, Fallout 3 and Gears 2. 

Future AAA title could include Banjo (don't know, looks like a polarizing title) and L4D (hope so), but that would be speculation.  Won't matter to me as I have both of these reserved.  By the way, I envy those with multiple consoles not because I can't afford them, but because I don't have enough time to play all the games.  Resistance, I'm looking at you.

Shouldn't there be like an official Gears of War 2, review thread though?
