The ps3 was a great console from the start, Yes it might not have cross game voice, but honestly XGVC is lame think about it, if Everyone was in a FPS game like COD:any version, the sole person not in a chat session wouldn't be able to tell people where all the baddies are camping out.. As for blu-ray VS. DVD or even HDX streaming, there is no comparison, Blu-ray is sweet, I just got Avatar Directors cut box, I saw the movie too many times in D3d theaters, the blu-ray showed way more detail, since there isn't glasses dulling the image or making it darker.. As for anyone that says DVDs are just as good, WOW, what are you smoking?? I have done a comparison of upconverted dvd's verus Blu-rays, just the mere fact there is more than 10MBPS of video and Audio from a blu-ray versus 7 MBPS, says enough, No one can say HD-DVD is better, I have seen a buddy who still has his XBOX add-on HD-DVD to my discriminate eye, I can see that blu is much clearer, might not have been in the begining.. but it has been a while, there have been numerous updates, software and hardware wise.. I will have to say that I have been through 3 PS3's, on my last ps3, I could have NOT bought it and chose to go with XBOX, but why did I choose ps3 again?? Two games stand out as a reason to own a ps3, GT5 and Little Big Planet 2.. GT5 had a rough launch, people flooded the servers, They have fixed the issues, a 2nd review might be in order here.. As for LBP2, I can't go 5 minutes without thinking about what epic levels & GAMES I'm gonna make with the asorted new tools.. I for one can't wait for Jan. 18th.. it will be a day I'm not gonna get much sleep.. I am gonna even take off college that day just to play LBP2.. Is there any real reason for me to get an XBOX?? I hate HALO, I think its just the biggest load of BS ever.. Also, Kinect is a big joke, I did play with it at Best Buy, it was laggy doo doo.. to put it nicely. PS MOVE isn't a whole lot better, but at least I can play FPS games with it.. Can't see Kinect doing that.. Either way, get a ps3, it is better, and it is for the technical people, xbox is for the tech challenged.. Not to mention xbox is now $60/yr, give me a break.. At least PS Plus is totally 100% optional. XBOX Forces you to pay to play.. That might be good for their bottom line, but not yours, right?? You will pay double for your XBOX in about 7 yrs. By that time it might not be around if Sony kills it off..There is a little roumor going around a PS4 is being developed, if it is true, I'd be the first to get it. Maybe then they could make cross game voice an option, but Like I said I don't want anything to do with it. If XBOX was worried about the portable gaming market why haven't they made a PSP killer?? They could make a XBOX-portable device, sorry can't think of a name.. But it would make sony wanna come out with a better duel stick psp.. The psp is good, in its own way, for LONG trips.. But not for everyday use. it is cool that I can play psn games on the psp when I sync it.. can xbox do that?? Nope.. I think PS3 is the best console out, I had all three at one point, the wii was a joke after a while, the xbox I had RROD day one, after just 5 minutes online.. My 3rd ps3 has been on 24/7 since October.. I can't Imagine having to buy a seperate Bluray player.. Why own an xbox or wii?? It makes no sense..

This game PWN's Mario Kart... I did like Mario Kart 64 back when I was a kid, then it just got BORING.. Same with Mario Kart Wii... I laughed at how DUMB the motion steering is. Mod Nation kicks Nintendo where it hurts... Just watch how many people defect from Wii's to get a beefier Ps3. Custom Tracks and characters?? What's better than that??? Does the wii have customizable tracks on Mario Kart wii?? NOPE.. They also haven't released DLC, which is a freaking Shame. Nintendo released a Half Baked Mario Kart on the wii.. Mod Nation is just better.. I was in the closed Beta last year, it was SO COOL.. I made 10 tracks, and 100 Mods (racers) Has anyone been able to do that with Mario's games?? Again NOPE. Anyone that still thinks the kart racers of old are still playable, are obviously poor geeks that didn't save up any $$$$

I wonder if GR is gonna bash Allen Wake (the xbox game) as much when it comes out?? More than likely they won't.. why??? GR is Microsoft friendly, too friendly if you ask me.. Why not just admit it GR, you sleep in bed with MS. This article is a pointless rant. I can't believe they posted a spoiler review.. I played HR and I did like it, all graphics aside, this is a good game... way better than the normal crap like MW2. I hope that GR wakes up and stops bashing ps3 and sucking up to MS..

I have played Rune Scape and D&D Online.. DDO is a crap game. I did like it somewhat but Runescape is better... I hate crime craft.. that game is a clone of GTA meets DOOM... worst game ever.

I played the demo, and the coolest thing is every time you start the chapters over you get new responses, new events happen.. It's not a normal game. I LOVE IT. (yes I wanna marry it,lol) Just kidding... lol.... anyways I really was blown away by the detail, my mom thought it was a movie. We just saw Avatar so she really couldn't tell the difference. I give this game/movie a 10.

@cart00n: Your right and whats even more amazing is we are just a bunch of borrowed parts as Will Wright points out in the Nat Geo DVD that comes with Spore. We all owe our exsistance to sea creatures. Not just Apes. If we were made in 7 days then explain why ALL our DNA is in every living creature/plant you name it.. I am a Christian but refuse to believe we were literally made in 7 days. This idea that we just came out of thin air is just BS. Same logic goes with games. Not one game can say it is an original idea. Except PONG, that was the very first game ever. Every game that came after just builds on the whole idea of what a game should be. I love Uncharted 2. I cannot stop playing it. It does have some awesome moments in the Single Player game. I can only imagine what they will do for Uncharted 3.. UC2 makes every aspect work brilliantly. That is why it raked in all those awards.

Gamesradar is totally bias... They are in someway controlled by Microsoft so it's no surprise they picked Xbox360.. If you want my honest thoughts on which console will win 2010.. I have to say PS3, for one, the service is free (for now) and not to mention we have exclusives Xbox'er idiots would LOVE to have.. Not to mention we only ever need ONE disc.. 2 or three for Mass effect?? PUHLEASE!! I would rather get the STEAM version on my pc.. At least there on my pc I can play my games in 1080p.. but back to consoles, I am no fanboy of PS3, I did at one time own all current consoles. Now I'm just down to a ps3, simply because I can't live without Netflix and blu-ray's. I hope XBox gets a Blu-ray.. more power to them.. more money for SONY..lol. Besides most xbox360 components are in someway or another a sony product.. so we are really just gonna have to go with a all in one with the next gen console, have nintendo,xb720,and ps4 all in one box.. I would pay $2,000 for it... I want all the developers to put console partisan politics aside.. We need to cut costs in this downswing economy.. Sony spent 2 trillion bucks on the ps3.. xb360 came close but not close enough since they still red ring.. the wii is a joke by it's self.. it needs the other consoles. I dream of a day where I can just turn on ONE console and pull up different User interface's.. say I want to play Halo reach I login to the xbox console from a directory system.. and if I want to play Gran turismo, on the fly I should be able to press the menu button (guide,or Home) button and jump right over to the ps4 partition. the same with wii 2.. Whats more, the ps3 is really a beta model for the ps4.. Once the ps4 comes out we will have James Camerons: AVATAR (movie) like game graphics.. It's no pipedream.. 3d was a dream just last year now it's possible. I want an all in one console SO BAD..

the psp go, is to be short, a huge step up from my psp 1001. yes i still have a psp 1001. i hope the small screen helps prevent white dots on the screen. i will not miss the crunching noises my psp 1001 made when loading stuff or playing movies. ugly or not, im getting one. btw sony will have a psp rental store. i got aan email with a survey sayinng would u like a psp rental store for game and vid's. i said of course i would!!

I have this game, my sims3.com handle is pc452000 look for my stuff. i really like this game, i even like the fact i hate a chethappens trainer to give e $99 million and no motive decay and 99 million lifetime points. also i have the no censor patch, its great not having those annoying blocks over what we all have in real life.

Wow, this add-on should have already BEEN IN THE GAME!! It was played by Will Wright in the E3 conference in 2006 so all EA did until Spore came out was cut out all the good stuff to make us pay $20+ for what we need for free.
