...sonic, i' m looking at you....

Aww, come on!

Sonic only had slowdown in the 2d days when you lost a mass amount of rings.

Notice in the 3d ones he only lost like 5, even though he had 600 or something..

1. Never tell all you know.

I' ve had the framerate drop in Mario 64 before, so it' s not unheard of for great games to have that problem.

i thought it was a special effect to make it dramatic old days old days ... see? ignorance is a bliss !!

Seriously? Me too! Too bad we' re not that naive anymore...

...yeah i get what your trying to say saberewolf, but i don' t think it' s very fair for you to compare x360 with any Nintendo or Sega machine.... ...they have totally different priorities, target audiences and gaming philosophies...

....you should of just saved your cash, rather than buying a x360 with the expectation that it and it' s games were going to somehow match the particular asian standards that a Sega or Sony made machine might have.....

.....by now, anyone with half a brain would know what to expect generally from a Nintendo, Microsoft or Sony made machine....

...you have really no one to blame but your self... ....

Yeah because everyone(especially Europe) knows what to expect from sony


Yeah you should have saved your cash so you would have been a fraction of the way there to being able to afford a PS3

You have to keep in mind that regardless of how powerful video game consoles become with each passing generation, developers will always push their performance to the point where the framerate in some games with fluctuate... This is true of the Xbox 360, this will be true of the PlayStation 3 and future consoles..

Thank you.

sonic 2 slowed down so much when you did split screen versus races. But it was still awesome and worth it for how much more detailed the graphics were.

"If you knew how good I am you would think I'm modest."

Sonic 2 was also running at double the resolution the Genesis normally does during the split screen segments.

Shall we re-name this thread to " Sonic 2 was amazing" ??

No, I am NOT eing sarcastic...

Hehe... " eing"

Actually , after Gears of War.. (and im not 100 percent sure thats gona be as good as fanboys claim). I' m definatley going to be selling my 360..

After going back to my PC Ive realised theres no need for me to have a 360..

Wii and a Visa, multi-core next gen PC will do me just fine for my gameplay and graphical needs..

Owning a 360 leaves me no need to own a PS3! Worse graphics, more expensive games.

Nah i' ll stick with the 360!

Sonic 2 was also running at double the resolution the Genesis normally does during the split screen segments.

Yeah, thats right there about..

Sonic 2 uses the Megadrive Interlace mode 2 which provides double the vertical resolution (320×448 for NTSC, 320x480 for PAL).

Id keep the 360, because what do you do when advancments in technology make an upgrade that you need, just keep buying them? Where as the 360 will play whatever games they make, so you dont have to keep buying graphics cards, etc.

Not really, After my next PC, i' tll be a good 4/five years before im gonna need another upgrade, by that time the next Xbox should be on its way too.

I also love my FPS' s, but i also want M&K and min 60FPS as standard.. 360 does not meet my requirements.

No need for me to have one for anything else IE RPG' s,.. especially when the Best Zelda game is around the corner..

thanks a lot dude

You know Sony did promise you 120FPS at one point! Then 60 FPS They also promised Dual HDMI 7 controllers at once What was it? 4.2 Ghz Core? They also promised we would have the console in the spring They promised a global launch They said they wouldnt have unified network You what, im done believing anything Sony says! and so should everyone else [:' (]

Vx, my framerate drops when you use that many emoticons in one message.

That' s sounds like a sarcastic complaint directed to people that are none too happy
with framerate problems in some of their games..

Unless of course your PC is actually experiencing such problems, then for that I
am truly sorry..

Let' s get one thing straight... Zelda is an Action/Adventure game, not an RPG...

If you think that you really are stupid.

But it is dickhead! Oh teh shockzor!

Some people include action games with adventure elements, such as The Legend of Zelda

But there is no character customization in stats, moves etc........

Link has a set of moves from beginning to end, NEVER CHANGES. You cannot choose if want those moves or not. In kingdom hearts you can level up, choose the moves YOU want therefore your role-playing.

Sorry Majik but you lose this time and the fact that you use Wikipedia as a source is funny.

Who are you using as a definitive source Gaiden? I' d say a wiki article is fair game, especally as articles can be collaborative, or disputive and are normally put together by the people closest to the subject matter.

I dont trust Wikipedia ever since Tiz told me there was a spelling mistake on one of the articles.

That is totally unacceptable, so if Majik is using it as a source it is more than likely that there wrong about Zelda being an ACTION RPG.

I mean you might as well say Ninja Gaiden and Devil May cry are Action RPGs they require quick action or reflexes.

Erm, didn' t you play Windwaker?! You didn' t know you could learn new moves?!

Erm, didn' t you play Windwaker?! You didn' t know you could learn new moves?!

WOW you learn one or two moves after practicing with that old crusty man. That still dosent represent role-playing.

Hehe my record againist him was about 500 hits.

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

The Zelda games contain RPG elements. They' re not RPG' s per say but not every game has to fit into a specific genre. Look at Shenmue for example.

Thats true but it still is not in the Genre of ACTION RPG.

Its Action Adventure period.

Shenmue created a whole new genre completely.

Kingdom hearts Action RPG
Zelda Acttion Adventure
Shenmue FREE

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

lol

Action Adventure with a HINT of RPG elements

no no



Action Adventure RPG

Agreed...

Who gives a S$£^T.. Its ZELDA and Testers claim it to be the best ZELDA yet..

So whatever you want to label it, its still gona own everything else out there..

Vx, my framerate drops when you use that many emoticons in one message.

Hahaha, nice one!

Its a zelda game how can it suck.. wait, okay i' ll rephrase that, its a zelda game thats not windwaker.

its a zelda game thats not windwaker.

Wind Waker was brilliant!!! Ok it wasn' t as good as Ocarina but it was still an excellant Zelda game. Twilight Princess will be the best yet, I have no doubt about that! Its also ment to be the biggest Zelda game yet as it is ment to be over 70 hours in length.

Windwaker was different, and some people didn' t like them tampering with the formula. They can' t please everyone.

windwaker rocks
i complete it twice
