torrence you buy every game on 360 right
torrence davis 360 defense squad dude you crack me up lost and damned is garbage dude.
I stopped the podcast after 5 min to write this ,please Torrence do something to Hiphopgamer mice, I wrote a note about the same problem for WZ31 and Hiphopgamer still has the same problem, why can’t everybody speaks as clear as you Torrence, do you have a magic setup?
I think this show I’m really going to break my PC
I have a $100 mic. I tried to get hiphop to change his settings so it doesn’t distort. Maybe it’s just mic placement.
Bucnasty, anymore fanboy comments from you and you’ll get banned.
Torrence, why do you continually make something out of nothing with this whole fanboy thing? The Davis Dailies and the Warzone are all focused on what a bunch of nerds in N4G are typing. C’mon man. WHO CARES. If you stopped mentioning these fanboys and what they say, you and other media types wouldn’t be putting fuel on the fire so to speak. Sessler condemns fanboys and yet his site makes very slanted comments. Other sites do the same. Dude, just focus on doing your thing and stop with the whole fanboy focus. Somebody is going to get shot over this? You realize most of these “fanboys” are guys that have never even been in a fight, right? And people get shot over garbage all the time; blame the guns and the people and not their motive.
That 10 question shit was classic! Bucnasty gtfo dude seriously, lost and damned is what gt4 IV should of been in no way is it garbage. I bet your just mad cause its 360 exclusive.
Lost and Damned was a great move by MS but I think it came out way too long after GTAIV came out. As a GTA4 player, I wish PS3 had some DLC but it doesn’t. So yeah, I’m jealous but I’m not going to plop down 200 bucks plus the cost of GTA4 plus the cost of DLC to get it.
im sorry tor but teamspeak is killing your show. i can barly make out any one but you and 2 other people.
Team speak is definitely not sounding as good as I thought it would.
It’s not Teamspeak, it’s configurations on the other end. Everyone could sound like me if they had a better mic, better mic placement and set their record settings correctly.
Lifendz, that fanboy shooting someone was all for laughs man. We aren’t always serious and most of what I say is to make people laugh. I’m really done with fanboys and it’s a waste of time talking about them. There’s so many things we could be talking about that wasting time on fanboys would lower the quality of the show. That’s why we don’t do Fanboy Of The Week anymore. Every week I think the show is getting better. I LOVED how #32 turned out. The 10 question thing was a hoot. The only time people faltered was on the lazy dev question.
Torrence my friend, Chill pill u threatening to ban a fan of the site because he thinks you are part of the 360 defense force ?
I agree with you in a way hes going overboard with it and might I say repetitive, but chill big man hes not insulting you in a manner that warrants that. specially when many agree with him just no as harshly. So many people think it gotta be 10% of truth in a lie.
You seem like a great guy dont turn into a dictator. Cats just dont agree with some stuff u say take it for what it is , you will never win us all. you cant have your perfect site of “true gamers”, because such a fantasy world does not exist.
Keep up the great Job.
He shouldnt even warn him he should just ban him! he gets on every day and says some bullshit. He is not giving anything decent to discuss nor is his comments valid or have any thing to do with anything. Every time some one says something about the 360 here he comes with his bullshit. If he sits there and let people throw bullshit comments out every day like he does then you know what you going to look up and we are going to have bullshit posts like on every other site on the net. Its one thing do disagree or to even criticize, but to do so with no evidence and no justification is bullshit and uncalled for. Ban him Torrence and every one else that wants to act like that. Its time to clean the site of parasites, and show them what true gaming is all about.
fuck Prototype
KZ2 commercial is not enough
The Lost & Damned i dont care because i finish GTA4 and care to play it no more
hiphop mic is 2 loud
Lifendz I read your comments in N4G and here but I have to disagree with you, Torrence is not fuelling the fanboys war as other sites do, also these questions were asked by the fans, so its really not a big of a deal, if they can’t talk about some of the sensitive points then I think they should quit doing the show, I disagree with Torrence a lot of the time but I really respect him and love his site
This one of best WZ so far ,Keep it up; I hope your site keep getting bigger and bigger
Torrence Here is an advice to you, get your Staff and do a test with them on teamspeak let them try different mic position or let them change their mics specially HipHopGamer
I don’t want to ban Bucnasty it’s just that he comes in here and makes several posts in under 1 minute and doesn’t add anything intelligent to the discussion. Unlike the forums, I like to allow free speech to run free in the comments section. I get called 360 fanboy all the time. I don’t care about that. It’s just that he has absolutely NOTHING to add to the discussion. I swear he must be 12 or something.
I AM going to do a MIC test next week and get everyone in the no “distortion” zone.
And again, as much as I hate fanboys, I’m done talking about them. This year is going to be great and my mind is filled with ideas!
Game on!
yeah highly recommend you make people to start using a hot key for speaking when on team speak er something… because that stupid typing I kept hearing from weapon was annoying as hell man… sounded like I was in the middle of an arcade.. I swear it sounded like they were pounding the buttons playing street fighter er something lol……
Anyway…yeah id say just make most of them hotkey their speaking because the background noises are really making it hard to hear other people.
i have 499
i go to craigslist get a ps3 for $300
and get warhawk $20
and mad other games for cheap
After hearing you talk about Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Games I had to get it. I went straight to Amazon. lol
Street Fighter IV is an amazing game. Each character is really deep. I don’t understand why so many people online (PS3) use Ken, Ryu and Akuma. >.>
I use Vega and I’ll give anyone’s Sagat a run for their money.
My PSN ID is sNsKid. Add me and let’s fight.
I know I am not unbeatable (because I keep losing to good Blanka players), but the only way to learn a character’s strengths and weaknesses is through competition.
As far as multiplatform games go I feel like developers decided on a certain standard that can be achieved on both PS3 and 360 whether or not they have the skills to make the game better on one console over another.
I’ll probably get bashed for this, but my desire for Killzone 2 has kind of dwindled. I was really excited for the game because I was itching for a new good quality game. I kind of felt like a lot of the games I recently bought weren’t really satisfying my gaming needs. Once I got Flower, Castlevania Judgment, Onechabara and Street Fighter IV I definitely wasn’t longing for a new game anymore. I love playing Street Fighter so much and I’m having so much fun with it that I just might wait to get KIllzone 2. I know for a fact that I’m getting Resident Evil 5 no matter what because I know the franchise and characters. The GT RE Retrospective is really getting me even more hyped for the game. The RE5 2009 trailer has me so curious about what direction the story is going to take. I’d bet money that the mystery woman is Jill Valentine. I’m not really invested in the Killzone franchise. To me the Killzone 2 commercial doesn’t do enough to entice the casual gamer. I watched it and immediately thought, “That’s it?” I already knew the game was going to look good because I downloaded the 1080p version of the ad from the PS Store, so the graphics were not my main focus. The SF story trailer was epic and all of the RE5 trailers kick ass.
I’m just now listening to the 10 questions. I don’t know if I’ll have anything to say about that. Ciao for now, for now.
I decided today that Im not gonna get Killzone 2 immediately. I got SF4 today for 360. Ive been playing way to many shooters and ill get to this eventually. I waited for Gears 2 I can wait for this.
Torrence u and Howard stern need a show together on satellite radio ur hilarious
Candid Anthony your a fool
just say your pockets are low
dont come up with no bullshit reason why your not getting the killzone 2 day 1
torrence ur killing me, ur making me wanna cop sega collection right now…but i need to save the money lol.

Hey guys, fun show, as usual. But I am at the Killzone 2 comercial discussion an I have to tell you guys. I have the game, and it is exactly the same as the Demo. Same same thing.
Great fucking game, don’ t get me wrong, but it is the exact same thing. Torrence, you have my psn, I got a few trophies to you can confirm it.
anyways, back to playing wow and listening to you show.
1. Can KZ2 be done on the 360? ~ YES/Any ps3 game with time can be done on the 360 and vice versa. (multiple disc(s) ofcourse)
2. Can/Will GT5 be ‘deep’ as Forza? ~ Yes it CAN. No it won’t. GT5 doesn’t have to. Two different audiences.
3. Most bang for your buck ~ Depends on what you want. Just games .. 360. If you want more then games + games ..$399 ps3. (I have the 60 GB pstriple. No contest) Also. People seem to forget the cost of Live over the course of a couple years, which only include 2 more features PSN doesn’t have. (Since we’re talking bang for the buck)
4. $499 in my pocket ~ ps3, mgs4, and the pseye.
5. Would i be upset if the next R&C went 360 and the next PGR went ps3? ~ No/yes. Don’t care what 3rd parties do …. BUT in the case (example) of Square announcing FF13 ps3 exclusive, then changing their minds. BS! (People bought ps3’s specifically for that game) That shit ain’t right.
6. Define a lazy dev and pick 1 ~ Itagaki (Ninja Gaiden 2) He SHAT on HIS own game and team. (PS3’s Sigma team) A remake he had nothing to do with. Then says he only works with the most powerful hardware.(360) Releases Ninja Gaiden 2, and IMO 2 doesn’t look better or plays as smooth as Sigma. Also, around the board. Ninja Gaiden Black and Sigma scored higher than NG2. So, he made an above average game on “more powerful” hardware, while his “subordinates” (<—his exact word) re-created his game better on competing hardware.
7. Single console owner with the ability to take an exclusive from either 360 or ps3 ~ It’s funny. ATM Ninja Gaiden 2 (inorite?) or Ace Combat 6(ps3) ~ MGS4(360)
8. Take 1 company away from the console race ~ Microsoft. Most of their games are 3rd party games anyway. Most of their BIG “exclusives” are better on PC.
So .. in the end. I could live WITHOUT what’s left … RELIABILITY issues, nickel and diming.
9.dvd, Blu-ray, 100gb hddvd, or sd cards? ~ Depends. Movies OR games, or Movies AND games?
Games – sd cards
Movies/games – Blu-ray
Are movies studios going to move to another format (SD cards) so soon? Nope. 10 years from now my video store will NOT have the movies i want on sd cards.
10. The winner of this gen? ~ Nintendo (overall) 360/PS3? PS3 With what’s inside the ps3. I think it will last longer than the PS2. So longevity is on Sony’s side. Coupled with the rapid upgrade of people going HD. The PS3 will be the cheaper alternative over the next 10 years.
11. (Candid’s ?) 1 franchise back from the dead ~ Guardian Heroes /Strider /Marvel Super Heroes (War of the Gems)
@hagggs5tow
dude have some respect dont be going nuts with CAPS!… it makes it a pain in the ass to read and makes you come off as a tool
Great Show BTW.
I laughed hard when dude said. “My PS3 wont break”
and now I got to say for the crash bandicoot question.
it alwas was a Universal game. They just had a deal with sony at the time. Sony bought Naughty dog after an Crash went to Raical entertainmet.
I need to join you guys next time…. ;D
Awesome Warzone. I’m definitely getting Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection. You can’t go wrong with those games. Torrence. You need to do something about HipHopGamers mic. I love the warzones but his mic fucking rumbles.
And one more thing. How badass would it be if they came out with a Sega Saturn Collection?
That Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis collection is great, but most of those games are alreay on the Sega Genesis Collection. Cept the Streets of Rage games.
But both collections are still missing the Earthworm Jim games, and Eternal Champions.
They need to make a
Treasure
Natsume
Data East
Konami
Tecmo
Acclaim
Midway
collection
Sorry about the caps,yeah it woul be nice if they came out with a saturn , dreamcast, collection as well as a 3DO collection .
“10 Questions To Drive my co-hosts and listeners crazy.”
“What is this, a survey?” lol
On the topic of banning, I agree with both Kapado and Bullywithafully01.
There are too many sites/blogs, created by dudes who just want to surround themselves with video game sycophants to pump out articles and podcast, only to promote their one sided views on the industry, and discredit or silence any dissenting opinion.
There is a fine line between prudent moderate and fascist dictator.
On the other hand, there are also a lot of good sites inundated with users that bring nothing but unnecessary discord to the site. Interesting conversation and debate is one of the best parts of the game community and it F@#KING PISSES ME OFF when some dumb ass drags down the quality of the debate.
They should be banned without warning.
Infamous VS Prototype
I’m more interested in Infamous. I have always been a big fan of comic books so the comic approach just appeals to me. Plus I am already so interested in the story I cant wait to play it.
Prototype looks cool too, the moves I’ve seen him do are sick, but to me it seem less story driven and that is the most important part of a game in my opinion.
What is the most important part of a game in your opinion. (I’m not trying to get anybody to say graphics) lol
most important part of a game is story .
Most important part of a game is gameplay. As long as the gameplay is fun and solid I could careless if the story blows ass or not. I like games that have a good story, but if the gameplay isn’t there then its not worth playing through to finish the story.
i got a question which series
call of duty
halo
grand theft auto
would u want to get rid of and why
Well if thats how he acts just let him do it one more time and bring the Ban hammer down on him.
Im about to start listening to the Warzone .
But as for Killzone2 being done on the 360 ??? I will believe it when i see it .
hopefully but I really must go with no 360 has been out for 3 going on 4 years and where is it at ?
I Doubt Microsoft great machine and its Devs have not reached that level out off respect for Sony, until they do it nobody can tell me any different. shut up or show me something baby.
And i mean that i wont buy it, but the 360 is a good machine, i just dont want to deal with RRoD, and that controler.Yours truly….. Sony Fanboy that does not hate
@ INTERREGATOR – Are u mad ? In some States they will give you the Death sentence just for asking such blasphemy. Those are huge and impprtant Titles GTA and COD4 alone have introduced millions of newcomers into gaming last year alone and Halo while not my cup of tea is a Monster on its Own right .Pick 3 other games and i wont call the CIA on you. lol
