"Eight hours with the Xbox 360"

[Wunderchu]

I know there have probably been other Xbox 360 impressions threads, but this write-up is quite possibly the best one yet, IMO ...:

(I first found out about these impressions from this thread @ Team Xbox forums: http://forum.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?t=379804 )

That's a good write up. I'm liking what I hear for the most part.

If I wasn't sold on it before (I was...), this article makes me want one. I like that I can turn it on or off without getting up and open the disk drive as well. I'm lazy like that.

I'm hearing more and more bad things about PDZ. This worries me. I think I will rent it before I buy :/

uhh, from the very review this thread is about (the reviewer thought it was a disapointment)

[Acezo]

When it comes to PD:0, I just think everyone is setting themselves up for disappointment. I try not to get hyped about games, that way I'll enjoy it that much more for what it is isntead of what I wanted it to be.

i dont know what everyone even sees in PDZ - it doesn't look too spectacular and seems to play like every other terrible console fps out there :x

yeah its a wonder of all the 20 reviews which came out after the NYC showing, the worst is posted by WonderChu:P

I disagree. That was easily the best 360 review I've seen on the 'net. Just because he wrote about some of the negatives doesn't make the review bad. I appreciate honesty and the positives greatly outweighed the negatives.

Also, the part about PD0 doesn't make me any less interested in the game. He admits he had extremely high expectations for the game and wanted to be blown away. I think with some tweaks here and there, this game will be really fun ( <--- keyword ).

I've never played the original title, so I didn't expect to be blown away. In fact I wasn't even interested until about a week ago. After seeing more recent videos though - especially that 6 minute clip - I think this game has a lot of potential. The only reason it may not be a blockbuster hit is because it doesn't look "real" enough and....it's not Halo.

Great review, my interest in getting the 360, or at least at launch was pretty non existent, but after reading the review and hearing about some of the launch games, im definately looking to get it at launch now...

remind me why you even posted?

Otherwise, its a great article, answered some questions and learned new stuff.

:D

So I guess I'm getting Kameo.

Meh, I've already played PD:Z and I'm definitely keeping my pre-order. I think people are going to feel that it didn't live up to their expectations, but I think despite that, people are still going to enjoy it.
