  Why do you keep referring to this as a top-tier phone? It quite clearly isn't.

  Yeah this retails for about £300-350 doesn't it? Only a mid range this one, get an S3 review out for a proper top tier phone. Reply +1

• Game Group suffers from "extraordinary" economic times

• Guitarnerd87 16/11/2011

  Game are terrible now, had to go there to get ICO + Shadow of Colossus and despite having racks full of the boxes they only had one copy left. So people behind me were going up with boxes off the shelves to be told there was none left. Also took them about 5mins to find the sodding disk, even cex are better now, and thats saying something.

  Can't eurogamer stop links appearing in the comments until this spam dies down? Not sure if it will help much but might at least put them off a bit. Reply +3

  All it will mean is prices of older games will fall slower, so they make it back there. Reply +2

• PlayStation 3 finally profitable

• Guitarnerd87 29/06/2010

  "PS3 era: -
  
  2006 - $69,129,058 (small profit made due to slow PS3 sales and high PS2 sales)
  2007 - ($1,970,923,859)
  2008 - ($1,079,994,103)
  2009 - ($664,313,787)
  2010 - ($856,245,250) (first 3 quarters only)
  
  Total loss = ($4,502,347,941) "
  
  Erm I'd question those 2010 figures since the article is about sony making a profit this year.... Reply -2

• Greenberg: Kinect pricing "speculative"

• Guitarnerd87 15/06/2010

  @cen4pgb
  
  Yeah very good point, though you only need one eye toy so without a game and eye toy the price of an extra move should be a bit lower, £30-40 would probably be about right if the £60 figure is correct. I'm also guessing the nunchuck type accesory comes with it. Reply -1

• Guitarnerd87 15/06/2010

  @Steroyd
  
  haven't Sony already said it'll be about £60 for move + eyetoy + a game? I think microsoft will either have to have it sub £100 plus a game otherwise the casual Market probably won't bite. Or need to show a proper killer app to get the hardcore in, Sony have that same problem but the lower all inclusive price might suck the casuals in. Reply 0

  Except what I was saying is that the resolution deficit is a big issue in terms of image quality for me :S
  IMHO Crisper Image >> Too many effects
  
  
  Obviously that opinion does suck when PS3 games are covered in quincux! Reply 0

• Guitarnerd87 09/06/2010

  I don't like the way the resolution deficit on the 360 for split/second is just glossed over as unimportant but screen tear on the ps3 is made a big deal leading to a wobbly image. I didn't notice any on the ps3 demo, unless it was just not a very demanding level leading to lower stress on the engine. For me resolution is an important issue, it's whats held me back from getting RDR. Reply +2

• Tech Interview: Blur

• Guitarnerd87 29/05/2010

  Great article! Gave a good insight into the differences between 360/ps3, interesting to hear the ps3 had an edge blur the face off didn't see! It's a good example of the developer playing to each systems strengths, higher AA on 360, edge detection + blur on ps3, the way multi-plat should be! Reply +4

• Tech Interview: Split/Second

• Guitarnerd87 15/05/2010

  Differences between the games basicly come down to whether you prefer slightly more post processing, like the motion blur, or the higher resolution. I've always preferred the crisper image with high resolution, though I know some people hate the sight of even one jaggie. Reply 0

• BioWare man: FFXIII is "not an RPG"

• Guitarnerd87 14/05/2010

  Yup, loved 7,8 and 10 but hated 12. Got 13, was ok just a bit boring really, was far far too slow and the story didn't really grab me like the others had. Ended up trading it in for uncharted 2, quite possibly the best decision I've ever made! Reply +1

  Well what I said was that I notice the drop in resolution, not that it made it look ugly.
  
  But whatever I should just ignore someone so obviously on a wind-up. Reply 0
