What I find most interesting is the fact that MS chose to continue in the video game business, after they lost $4-$5 billlion on the Xbox. They'd have to dominate this gen. significantly more than even Sony did with the PS2 for them to make back all that money.

Pretty sure Sony made something like $5B last gen.

you've jumped in -- now sneak out while the getting is still good. you'll always have fond memories of 360's underdesigned hardware and overrated games
well, mgs games have always intercut a certain amount of film footage with the cutscenes. maybe they've gone crazy with that stuff. i HOPE they haven't prerecorded the in-engine cutscenes, as nd did with uncharted
or yeah, maybe it's a ton of uncompressed audio
perhaps it's for the apparently revolutionary front end, which is reported to have cost something like 4 million dollars.
Front end, attract loop, that shit. I'm no joking about the pricetag either.perhaps it's for the apparently revolutionary front end, which is reported to have cost something like 4 million dollars.
front end? you mean UI?

Better be the most amazing options screen of all time, beating out even Bonestorm for UI dominance.
is the no dual-audio thingy confirmed? :( :(
does anyone have a link?Better be the most amazing options screen of all time, beating out even Bonestorm for UI dominance.
they sorta talked about it on the previous kp podcast. the opening video is kinda like a bunch of channels each showing different gekko's, i think, and they're made like commercials. so you can switch between those channels, or something.
They are a lot better off than they were before, but I think the RROD legacy will really lower first year sales of their next console.There is quite alot to this that you don't know. :'(
Konami deserves their fail. Kojima is the death of that company. They banked on an overrated hack when Bemani were the real envisioners of the future.
I have heard stuff about Bemani, mostly regarding the fuckups on the us side of the division.
i haven't been following the podcasts and stuff, but the idea that mgs4 is on a bd50 turns out to have been invented by gaf sfags -- kojipro have just said that they ran out of space. i've read rumors that bd50 yields still aren't great, and mgs4 will of course have a much bigger print run than any bd movie to date. it's probably on a bd25.it's probably solidsnakex and his fud.
I know the Bemani usa producer was famously dismissive of Harmonix's attempts to work with Konami, instead choosing to spend his time licensing trance tracks for Beatmania, which rocked the gaming in much the same way as, oh I don't know, Samurai Western.
