PS3 Users Moving to Xbox 360 Fact or Fiction?
In the wake of the PSN outage that is pushing three plus weeks, there have been reports flying around that PlayStation 3 users have begun to jump ship and trade their systems in for
Xbox 360's.
It has been said that Edge was on of the first to report this news. From there others began to follow simply by reporting the same rumor repeating the original report as the Holy Grail.
Joe Wilcox from betanews.com states that there is a problem in the original report from Edge. The information edge reported on is largely based on facts and figures from the United Kingdom. Joe continues to say
Based on a massive poll conducted by Betanews and random calls to a half-dozen GameStops, there is no evidence of mass consumer exodus from PlayStation 3 to Xbox 360 -- at least in the States.
This tends to make sense for a couple reasons. The first being, PS3 users are one of the most die hard, hard core gamer groups out there. Ask any PS3 owner what they think of their system, You will likely hear about it being the greatest console ever made. The second, it the recent releases of console sales reports and even the PS3 reported increased sales as well as the Xbox 360.
Personally, I talked with a local GameStop manager and heard the same thing, no PS3 users were rushing in to trade in their systems for 360's. Also interesting enough many forums and even on Twitter and facebook, Ps3 owners have been posting "can't wait wait for the PSN to get back up and running. I'm sure if one looked hard enough you could find someone posting their intention to switch consoles but it simply does not seem to be a trend as many have stated in blogs and news reports everywhere on the internet.
Don't believe everything you hear or see on the internet, just ask someone you know who owns a PS3 and see if they switched...

Homefront Review
Well, where to begin? As a person who plays with their friends on Xbox 360, I love squad or team based games. When a new one like Homefront is due out, I can't wait to get my hands on it and play with my friends. If you feel the same and don't own this one yet, wait to get it or you will be playing alone, a lot...
Server Issues:
It would appear that the game servers simply can not handle the load being put on them by the people that want to play this game. Now wether that means the server can't handle all the connection requests or just aren't fast or big enough I don't know. What I do know is this, THQ is saying they are experience more people trying to get on the servers then they expected, please be patient while they bring more servers online. OK, I get it I really do. Some times you just get more people buying and playing the game online then you expected and the servers can't handle the load. But wait, what's that? They announced months ago that this was the #1 largest pre-sale in the companies history. I would think that might have clued them into the fact that , your servers need to be upgraded before the release date. But noooooooooo,,, I get the game, call up a friend that I know got it too. "Hey dude, lets get on and play this thing", I say to him. After an hour or so of trying to get in a match, he finally ops out and tells me he will go watch a movie instead. A frickin hour and still could not connect to a match. Get in one and there is a chance you may get kicked out right in the middle of it. Although this has only happened to me a couple times, it has happened. for the most part, once you get in a match there is no lag and the game runs pleasantly smooth.
Graphics:
Maybe it is just me, but... In this day and age when new games come out I guess I over expect. I am always thinking the new games will have graphics to knock your socks off. If this is you, you will be disappointed once again. The graphics are not hideous but sup standard compared to other games recently released. Everything looks pretty nice when you spawn in and have a view of the entire map but move around and get close to something, raged edges and sub standard art work are easy to spot.
I can't comment on the story mode much because I have not played through to the end. I will add to this once I do. So far I have heard a couple people say they they won't be playing Black Ops anymore since this game has come out and I have heard the same for people that have complaints about this game. My advice at this point, If you don't already own it, rent it before shelling out $60 and see if you think it is worth your time. I spent the money so I will play it but I could have spent it elsewhere and been happier...
Star Wars The Force Unleased 2
Vader has cloned the hero starkiller. His hope is to use to complete his original mission of destroying the rebel leaders. However the clone is unable to it because of the visions of his love juno. Seeing that he is a failure vader attempts to strike him down. A vision of a similar sneak attack alerts starkiller and he breaks out of the training room. After fighting his way through kamino he escapes on vaders stolen tie fighter.
you spend the game trying to rescue your love juno and save the rebellion from collapse. Vader will stop at nothing to get starkiller back. Send bounty hunters droids and new stormtroopers to capture him. even his love juno becomes a pawn vader uses to try to make him submit.
This time around Starkiller is equiped with two lightsabers. Also he has new force powers like mind control. like before your powers can be upgraded but in a different way. You earn points in combat in order to purchase upgrades which go through three levels.
Combat is pretty straight forward like the first. Certain enemies take a certain way to kill and once you find a good pattern to do so they become very easy opponents. even the final duel with vader is pretty much a pattern that repeats itself. for example Enemies like the riot trooper are resistent to your saber but is vulnerable to your powers. Terro troopers are impossible to hit with saber attacks but if u hit them with force powers they are stunned and can be finished off.
Story is good and combat is good. therefore i recommend to anyone as a loyal fan to star wars.
