THIS should be good. Not quite the PS3 killer, but I think they are killing themselves just fine.

Sorry geekinabox, but just because you are lonely in your job and need company doesn't mean the rest of us are not right.

If you look on IGN, you see the MS reponse to this: "It is up to the company to set pricing".

At what point does MS take control of its OWN console for things? Besides taking all the credit?

One more lie on top of a bunch of other lies. No surprise, I told you folks in many posts MS will screw it up again somehow.

Add in Peter Moore's wonderful "Elite" speech from last week, and you see that the problem is not from the gamers this time.

People are getting tired of being bait-and-switched. If you think I am whining, piss off because I use correct English unlike the three jerks below my first posts.

Understand there will come a time in which customer support will make or break something for MS. And when that day comes remember this announcement and don't be surprised when all you get at time is the middle finger held way up in the air.

PS - CliffyB is the new John Romero.

I find this funny that they say no demo, but yet they had a multiplayer DEMO for INDUSTRY people behind CLOSED DOORS at the used-to-be-E3. Right now I am discovering I am wavering a bit on this title now. The pricing is suspect (because yet again, MS's policies get called into question - the policy said 49.99 guys - your own words!), and now there is starting to be too much hype. And too much hype usually means "under-delivered". Look, right now, Lost Planet sounds like a better title. And that "content" statement bothers me. If you don't have a demo, you better have a clean, nojag, and fully fleshed out title at launch then. And no "PARTIES" for this game since the E3 presentation was soooooo expensive to produce. If you got time to hype this game to death, you have time to crank out a simple demo. I say this because did you guys listen to that "Emergency E3 Podcast" from IGN? You could almost feel the elitism sucking the air out around them. Arrogant pricks. "EA needs to give me more money." Sarcasm or not, you need to kicked in the face repeatedly for sounding so lame. CliffyB is THIS close to being lumped into that category. I am sick and tired of hearing how hard the industry has it. Because honestly, putting together a single build is not hard. Before the internet, game magazines had no problem getting 5-8 DEMOS together and putting them on a CD for a couple of extra bucks. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. And digital content is supposed to make this easier, right? So why is there all this bitching about how hard things are these days? Whine, whine, whine... Like I said, this elitism garbage in the industry is starting to get really fustrating.

it's nice to get a release date for this game but...... this re-confirms what alot of people expected as soon as MS announced micro transactions, that devs will intentionally leave content out of a game to sell the pieces back to you. Secondly this announcment shows that MS is willfully breaking with thier own pricing structure. What happened to $49.99 for MS published games? Or are you just going to turn around and say that what you actually meant was MGS developed games. I don't know about anybody else here, but I truly expect that MS will pull a PDZ on this game,.. Meaning that they will send it out for manufacturing before it passed certification just to meet a date, and sell the damn thing anyway. All that being said, I have to admit that I am the ideal sucker that the want for a customer,.. as I will still reserve the Collectors Edition to get my game on.

OMG is just a stupid game, plus I don't see anything special about GEARS OF WAR it just looks like Unreal Tournament 2007 and what? o yeah they're both build under the same Unreal Engine 3. Microsoft will eventually have to kiss its console good bye cuz PS3 will destroy XBOX360... PS3 Expensive? I don't think so, add $100 to XBOX360 for wifi it ends up to be almost at the same price with a crappy DVD-Reader(DVD-R) that has badly scratch almost all 360 games! so for the same price I rather have a BR, WI-FI, and 100% back ward compatibility which XSH!T360 hasn't been able to accomplish at this point!

Bizarre, Rare, Bungie (NZ), DMA (GTA3, GTAVC, GTASA), Criterion Games (Burnout, Renderware), DICE, IO Interactive, Crytek, Lionhead, Psygnosis (destruction derby), Team17 (worms, lemmings), Codemasters, Remedy, Bugbear (flatout), Crystal Dynamics (tomb legends), Core (tomb raider), Reflections (driver), Simbin (GTR), Bohemia (op flashpoint), Eden Games (TestDrive Unlimited), Ubisoft, Eidos (SCI), Atari, Infogrames, (Vivendi Universal)... Those studios, or publishers, are mostly in Europe aside from Bungie. And I'm sure I forgot a bunch. Feel free to think the USA "gives games" more than any other western country in relation to size, population or gross national income.
