Are Sony going to give them a cinematic release of spiderman as well? $70 a ticket?

I've had a Xbox for years now, and I've been fairly happy with the games and service. But all this money spinning bullshit that's going on at the min (eposodic games, the prospect of raising xbox live gold) is making me want to trade in the console for a PS3. Microsoft are an evil company. That's right EVIL! i don't trust them at all. All they seem to want to do is electronically pick up their customers and shake them for every penny they have. And Natal looks shite! I quite like using a control pad thank you! In fact, the very day that the last guardian is released i will be trading my console in! and then i wont have to worry about making a twisted company richer, and from those riches becoming more twisted. PARP.

Looks like Alex_V works for a company with a lionshead as it's logo! thats ridiculous that a game thats been out for ages would cost 27 quid in chunks. What if the player has to wait a few weeks before getting any more money? Sod breaking down full retail games to generate more money! I'm all for the creation of original games that have been designed to be episodic, then like you say if its shit you can grumble over wasting your money on the first part and get over it and shop around. We can download Demos for free if we want to get an idea if a games good or bad. Just put down the electronic scissors and quit making things smaller to make a bigger profit. BOOooOOOoo

Preacher! That would make for an aweosme game. Or a Preacher spinoff that sees you playing as Cassisy (the drunken Oirish Vamp) in a 3rd person RPG that starts with him turning into a vamp in Irland and then arriving off the boat in New York during the 1920's or even a game where you play as The Saint Of Killers in a dark western FPS. They have been arseing around with the Film/tv series/film for well over a decade now yet there's still nothing (although Mendes is apparently making it now). We have already had one great Garth Ennis adaptaion that was Darkness and I thought that was a great game. Although I think i would be more difficult to find the correct VG genre for this title.

What if you don't have the internet? Will there be store realeases at the same time as download releases?! Not sure about all this episodic fad thats going around. It seems to be stemmed from marketing and money making rather than wanting to create awesome games.
