TGS 08: Star Ocean secures worldwide release dates {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Oct 9th 2008 1:50PM I hope that Microsoft has its 360 stocked up in Japan. When this game drops, it will move about 60,000 units within the first month of this game's launch. I can't wait to play this game. March can't come fast enough.
MS reveals their Tokyo Game Show lineup {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Oct 7th 2008 11:57AM I can't wait to see more information & media regarding Star Ocean IV: The Last Hope. It's going to stretch the limits of the 360, require multiple disks, and I will download that onto my Harddrive.
Bayonetta, The Last Remnant, and Bionic Commando also spark my interests. This Holiday has enough gaming greatness (including LR). I want Microsoft to finally talk about its 2009 Exclusives.
Win a Magellan Roadmate 1400 satnav and 'Baja: Edge of Control' for the Xbox 360! {Engadget}
Sep 30th 2008 11:00AM I would play Baja on my 360 and then use the GPS to drive my SUV out to those locations, in game and again, live out my video game fantasies in real life.
New Tomb Raider: Underworld vids reveal new moves for Lara {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 25th 2008 4:46PM People are already hating on this game. I think it's going to be a return of the royal Laura and should mark an indelible mark on Tomb Raider History.
X3F TV: Video analysis of Bungie's Keep It Clean teaser {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 25th 2008 2:27PM I played about 15 minutes of Halo 1 and watched a great Youtube of the series summary through Halo 3 but this is kind of exciting. It makes me want to pick up Halo 3 now.
Microsoft pushing for 1 million 360s in Japan {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 25th 2008 10:47AM I've played Mass Effect, Blue Dragon, and currently on Lost Odyssey and I agree w/Serio. 360 Exclusive JRPGs are cool. I would love to see more and I know they would do well.
For Japan, the absence of FFXIII hurts. But Star Ocean 4 will bode very well for MS, provided IU and The Last Remnant review well. If that's the case, MS should reach that million mark by late January and soar around 1.15 million in when Star Ocean 4 is released. Just a thought
WRUP: desperately seeking 1337 edition {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 12th 2008 11:37PM I liked the Demo, kind of hurt that I didn't win it here on X3F, but it's all good. Anyway, Lost Odyssey and Tomb Raider: Anniversary will be all that's in my disc drive this weekend.
Before I played, I prayed for those folks on the coast in Corpus Christi, Galveston & Houston.
Devs say Little Big Planet not possible on the 360 {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 10th 2008 12:01PM 1) LBP is an experience. It's kind of like the Wii, if you haven't played it, you don't understand.
2) The game comes with 60 pre-loaded levels. What was the last game you played on 1 disc that had over 60 levels? Add in the infinite ability to generate levels, characters, etc...I can easily understand why this game requires 40Gb.
3) Stop hating! I own a 360 and can't afford a PS3. I belong to the group of players that just want to play good games. Begruding as it may be, you haters need to admit that LitteBigPlanet is a great-looking experience.
Fanswag: The Post-PAX Giveaway [update] {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 9th 2008 12:40PM Tomb Raider Underworld. It looks amazing and should return to Lara's roots. I can't wait!
It's official! Microsoft announces North American Xbox 360 price cuts, $199 Arcade {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Sep 4th 2008 10:02AM The fact that 360 is cheaper than the Wii will force Nintendo's hand. Unless a customer only wants the Nintendo experience (IPs & waggle), they will opt for a cheaper, better system. This will force Nintendo to:
1) Stock more systems in stores
2) Find another differentiating factor like bundled goods, etc....
3) Release its next version iteration sooner than expected. Per Michael Patcher, WiiHD will be a powerful box.
I think this is a great move strategic move by MS and will finally give the world of gaming a decent chance this Holiday. I hope MS can supply enough 360s, Arcade skus in particular, to meet supply for the next 3 months. I think if they don't, then they will be in big trouble.
Japan & U.S price cuts during an RPG heavy season is a nightmare. Combine that with sold-out Japanese stores now and MS could be in Nintendo's position this holiday (demand>supply).
