Doesn't make me a "Sony Defender", lol, as someone inferred, just a little more civility. Peace to you.

I'm the one that should be making peace, my last name is Makepeace.

Take it easy Jim

You read a features list on the internet, and that means they are cocky? Okay. Besides, can someone actually produce a link where this supposed "guarantee" took place? Not saying it didn't happen, I'd just like to see it for myself.

You seem to be one of the one's hanging on every single word someone says, then proceeding to blow it way out of proportion. As I said before, if you are unhappy with the way this game turns out, just don't buy it. The rest of us will still buy it and love it.

Cheers.

Excellent post Alex. That's what I was getting at in a more simplified straight to the point package. I guess I should of left out all that guarantee riff raff that Sony's marketing dept started. lol

I'm going to try to refrain from posting because, like countryboy said, "who pushed the panic button", those kind of discussions are sort of pointless. About two weeks and we'll know a heck of a lot more, and I expect media coming soon anyway. Peace.

For what its worth, this years gm for all its quirks that need to be fixed, for the challenge you get one on one, with the good gamers, its excellent, it sure keeps me playing @ blogging about this gm.Hop!!

You have to love marketing departments. No matter what information you give them they ALWAYS like to give their own creative spin on it. I am sure there are times when the development team says when the hell did we say this? I am sure the team was the last ones to know about this so called guarantee.

Anyway, we need to get some game play videos to pass the time. Everyone is living and dying on every word in just about every thread. It will be okay guys.

Here is the other thing you guys should consider...SCEA might be able to live up to the promise. THink about it. They dont really need to make a bunch of gameplay changes...because the game played so well. Meanwhile 2K needs to focus on the actual gameplay engine. SCEA I would think would have more time to dedicate just to the bells and whistles in presentation....ie animations, stances and sig movements.

They might very well be able to pull ahead of 2K on this one. I am hopeful with these guys...they are not 2K...they tend to live up to what they say.
