I played the PS3 the other day. It certainly has the best graphics of the three systems. It was actually pretty fun playing the little offroad game, then a basketball game I couldn't quite understand.

The most impressive thing was these are first gen graphics. So as people get to master the hardware they will only get more impressive.

Once it has it's first price drop PS3 will actually be a contender in the next gen console war.

To what part? Canada wanting the Wii or being 4 million by the end of the year or Zelda being almost 1:1?


Edit: I think either way Sony the PS3 is a contender and will be a mainstream success, I think it will sell at least 30 million consoles. But to truly beat the Wii or Xbox 360, I think one of 2 things needs to happen. A price drop like you said Luppy or Blu-Ray needs to become a success, if Blu-Ray becomes a success then Sony will have no problem selling the 600 dollar, Videogame console/Blu ray player, when it would normally cost a person a single grand.

Is that to me and if so about what? Me wondering what you have doubts to? Or my comments about Playstation 3?

Maybe in America.

And it was because you couldn't tell that I wasn't talking about the article at all.

Oh, okay.

Also in my defense I'd like to state, you'd made it sound like you were disagreeing with the article!

For that you lose the right to watch Season finale of Avatar!

Don't worry, if the Bison ever take over the midlands Godzilla will take care of them. Just like he did with Bambi.

OK, official verdict: Neverwinter Nights 2 is fucking great.

I've been playing it almost constantly for the past week and never once have I thought "Lets play something else". Its like the bastard son of Neverwinter Nights and Baldurs Gate 2. So much improved! The Henchman AI still needs work, but I see that being addressed in a forthcoming patch. And theres Unique Magic items for EVERYTHING! No more do you take feats for a weapon to find that theres no Uniques to use!

In closing: Its great. Excellently paced, the story's fun, the customisability is excellent, its a great game.

I did it! I made a list of the rate of release of some of the most popular games out there. I think some would be suprised by the list.

I asked my sister about it and she said it was basically the same as the first never winter nights.

Should've known she was talking out of her butt. :P

The key difference, really is that the original's story and campaign seemed more of an afterthought than actually built into the game. Thats where this one differs.

Edit: This one feels more like a game than a framework and an afterthought.
