Thanks.

 

[Amir0x]

thanks for the press release open_mouth. Do you know if Microsoft is going to release an official logo for the "Rolling Thunder©" campaign, or can we expect a prompt photoshop from you?

The really important question - will these guys be providing the theme tune?

You might be an xbox.

 

[Kleegamefan]

Is this a pep rally?

For the OP?


Probably...

 

[Illuminati]

Is this a pep rally?

Ha ha, that is the first thing I thought after reading the first post.

Assassin's Creed (and more?) 360 bound
One of the PS3's bigger "exclusives" gets announced for 360. Others *rumored* to get the 360 treatment as well.

I know that its been rumored and is pretty much a given... but it was announced?

 

[GhaleonEB]

Yup.

Yep. A magazine cover, IGN had a story (that they pulled, or something).

It's official. Doesn't even look to be timed, either.

 

[open_mouth_]

Why do you all hate (360) Freedom?

Possibilities:
Halo 3 footage
Fable 2 footage
Alan Wake playable
Banjo 360
Halo RTS by Ensemble
Forza 2
Mass Effect playable
Too Human polished up
Chode Chronus stuff?
Blue Dragon blowout
Lost Oddyssey in-game stuff?
etc., etc.

Lots of cool stuff could happen on the 360 side of things during this rolling thunder campaign.

Compilation of several screens from the GoW thread:

Framerate looks about right :lol :lol :lol :lol












(OH SNAP)

 

[Karma Kramer]

It isn't timed... confirmed by IGN.

Nothing MS does will be able to overshadow the inevitable console launches.

Not only are you not the first person to make that "joke", but it's been made in this thread already.

It's because they're terrorists. Exciting times are ahead though and it's OK to be excited.

Oh teh noes! It's still good times for people having or interested in a 360.

Cut him slack. It made him laugh really really hard. Visibly so.

 

[RSLAEV]

ROOOHRRRING THUNDAAAAAA!

 

[The Take Out Bandit]

Let him take all the rope he needs to hang himself. ^_^

I'm going to enjoy this.

 

[Shig]

Urf.

I came in here expecting a 360 sequel to: [Rolling Thunder by Namco]

Instead of which I got some fanboy working Microsoft's balls...

Yeah, me too. F*ck you, OP.

no doubt, but they've gotta do stuff so they're not forgotten in all the hooplah

We always hear about "rolling thunder" everytime a hurricane is coming. Then it just kind of wobbles off into the ocean or North Carolina and no one gives a shit and goes about their business.

It's a figure of speech, it's not actual thunder!

Or is it? [face_mysterious]

Thanks for telling me.

Screw you, a-hole!

 

[Ponn]

Screw you, a-hole!

Take it out on the hurricanes not me. Everytime I see a storm tracking up the coast and supposedly heading for Jacksonville I end up saying "Well we are safe, NC is screwed though"

 

[Lo-Volt]

So, congratulations on Microsoft graduating from World War II PR to the Vietnam era. Jungle bombing for the win?

 

[Odysseus]

We like hurricanes in North Carolina.

Well, uh, some of them.

 

[Tieno]

Thanks for telling me.

It's ok, I can see where you got confused. It can happen to the best of us.

 

[Raistlin]

Not only are you not the first person to make that "joke", but it's been made in this thread already.

and I care?

you're in nc? cool.

Spoiler

it's boring here :/

 

[GhaleonEB]

Probably not, but that joke got old the first several times.

This thread would have gone off better as a "here's what has happened so far, let's speculate". As is, it reads like PR.

I wasn't trying to be a dick ...

... when I came back to the thread (still page 1, after my initial post), I saw the animated gif and made a joke.



I'm sorry if I didn't feel it necessary to go back and edit my post after I realized someone had made a similar joke within the last 10 minutes.

Congratulations! You've uncovered MS' "Rolling Thunder". Lots of mindless fanboys creating their own message board pep rallies, spreading FUD, etc. will save MS millions that they otherwise would have spent on viral marketers.

 

[IJoel]

I'm eagerly awaiting the flood of downloadable media and demos.

Others *rumored* to get the 360 treatment as well.

Haha... you'll get banned if you mention them.

Finally MS copying Sony!

 

[mrklaw]

you know, when someone says 'rolling thunder' to me, it paints an image in my head.

Whats been talked about so far seems more like an old lady in a zimmer frame.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Rolling Thunder? Isn't that the sound of PS3's in production?

No, thats the sound of 360's failing all over the planet.

 

[backonceagain]

O god make the bullsh*t PR stop. We had it before the launch, we had it during the launch, we had it with how many have been 'sold', we had it with how many they say they will sell and now this 'rolling mother f*cking thunder' cr*p, please just shut the hell up microsoft.

 

[MMaRsu]

They seem to be forgetting Saints Row, which will probably be the best sold 360 title to date .

Doubt it.
