What?
The game was moneyhatted, Irrational Games even said so.
Ouch at scores for NHL 2k8, wow at the FIFA score.
Milky really sticking his neck out with FFT vs PH. :lol
Other than that, bleh. Game Informer kills EGM with exclusives and timeliness of reviews.

Ani is right, MS isn't going to start farming out their franchises to the Wii. The DS is a big enough cash cow without coming back to bite them in the arse, and it could be used to create brand awareness for eventual 360 games *cough* Diddy Kong Racing 2 *uncough*.

A shame about Live, the demo was pretty good imo, although it would be hard to surpass 2k.
Stranglehold is right where I would place it.
The Fifa demo is awesome, the game is great... probly the best sports [demo] I've played this year.
Good scores all around for anticipated psp games...
And there is no way Tony Hawk even touches Skate.
TF2 is worthy of full price alone... plus Portal and Ep2... best deal of the year imo.
Katamari should always have been XBLA/psn/whatever.
What?
Gamerankings says EGM reviewed Halo 3, and that they gave it 9.75.

Dammit. Game Informer is not EGM.

I'm saying that in theory it makes sense. VP is waste of Rare, and selling the franchise makes sense since nobody buys it on 360.

Not care about what Todd gives Fifa, but Johns opinion about soccer I care more about, what did he say about it?
I was still gonna get it for the Pro camera alone, but Im curious. From the PES demo, its still way better than Fifa, but the graphics are a bit on an eyesore in comparison ALTHOUGH the faces look WAY more like their real life counterparts in PES.

I'm all for Ratchet and Clank going back to more platforming than shooting, but please don't get rid of the customizable control schemes that UYA and Deadlocked had. Not having to hold a shoulder button to strafe is ace.

Nintendo owns the copyright to Diddy Kong Racing.
You people reply too fast, so I probably won't get to much, but I'll try to get as many specifics as possible. I haven't read the SR2 cover yet, but if I read it before tomorrow I'll get the tidbits posted ASAP. As for bioshock, Q-Mann also mentions moneyhatting involving it being 360 exclusive. And yeah, Nomad thing is ps2, I just saw it as PSP since it was close to the DS section of the wrap up.

They gave similar reviews for Dark Mirror, mostly whining about the lack of a 2nd analog stick.

so todd played skate for a total of 6.5 minuites before going back to getting a blow job from the activision rep?
Viva Pinata on the Wii would surely signal the end of MS and Rare's 'civil partnership', though Rare wouldn't develop it would perhaps be a sign that they are no longer fit into MS overall portfolio. I can certainly see the point of putting the IP on the DS, but on the Wii?
It seems to that increasingly MS aren't entirely sure what they should do with Rare. I'm sure if MS stayed the course and really commited to diversifying the 360's first party output Rare could give them some really strong IP that would get some traction at some point.
But it seems to me that after the massive investment they put into the VP TV series and the game's less than stellar returns in sales maybe MS have gotten cold feet with the whole notion of appealing to the whole family rather than just the 18-35 year old man on LIVE.
Rare aren't doing the 360 version of the Party game so I doubt that they'd be doing the highly dubious Wii version either.

There is a lot of justification.
You can't get off your board, getting off your board would make it better to get to certain spots.
Camera angle doesn't give you the best view of whats in front of you, .
Some tricks require movements so similar to others that it's hard to pull them off (curse you 360 Nollie)
Pedestrians that are blind and deaf, cause they sure as hell don't move if they see you or hear you coming.
skate.reel is a fuckin mess, that doesn't work half the time.
