    Lol maybe microsoft are making products that destroy the competition now, like that simpsons with the Furby thing

    Am defo not a fanboy but i find the ODST/ Uncharted 2 comparison a bit off. ODST is an updated version of Halo 3, a 2 and a half year old game and defo not the best example of what can be done on the 360.

    A more current AAA 360 exclusive would be a better comparison, admittedly im struggling to name such a game.

    I agree with you on the multi-platform note, and agree that the PS3 is ahead of the game graphically

    I agree, making comparisons of quarterly sales shows little but the release schedule. Yearly sales show the true picture

    Its a good oppurtunity for anyone wanting to break into industry. Good or bad the Unreal Engine is popular with developers, so people with experience using it are much more employable

    Its wrong and tasteless because, as with Cobain, it is clearly against what he would have wanted.

    Cobain always struggled with fame, and resented the mainstream music industry. There is no way in hell he would have ever wanted his likeness being used in this way.

    Michael Jackson is a different issue, he probably would have embraced the idea of a likeness of himself doing kareoke.

    IMO you should respect the dead when portraying them in this manner. If Cobain was being portrayed as a parody in GH then it would be different, but he isn't, he is conveyed as the real deal therefore his personality and beliefs should be as important as his likeness and mannerisms.

    This is another example of the games industries immature nature.

    P.S im not a Nirvana or Cobain fan

    also a part where Cobain hangs himself may well fit into the GH mis-representation, seeing as he shot himself
