Great minds think a like.

Another reason why I want GTA to come out in January is so I have some money to buy it. There's Christmas and then my birthday is on the 30th, so I should have more than enough to get a few new games and some other nice things.

Just once I'd like to see an eagerly anticipated game be released ahead of schedule.

I'm all for taking time to get things right, whatever the reason is, but anymore every single title gets delayed.

If they make it HDD required I'm going to be pissed. I don't have the money to buy a a High-def tv at the moment. What do they consider High-def, is 720p good enough?

"HDD required" means you need to have a hard disk drive (HDD), not high definition (HDTV).

But to answer your question, yes... 720p is considered high definition... you have no worries there.

When I first got my 360 I was playing Dead Rising on a regular TV. I stopped playing it because the in-game text instructions were small and blurred which made me fail missions because I couldn't read what to do or where to go.

I have very good eyesight, and I still found the text instructions in Dead Rising were tough to read. I'm just glad that I played it on an HDTV to begin with... one of the better 360 games that (Dead Rising) was. Can't wait for a sequel...

That's what I thought at first but then I switched and thought it was a tv. Thanks for clearing that up.

Well, if you care about Blue Dragon at all, apparently that has TINY text also.

I suppose this is good and bad news. The game isn't schedualed (or wasn't) to be released for a few months anyway, so I'm sure the PS3 could have had it out (and looking awesome).

Whether or not the 360 is at fault this time, it's bound to happen down the road.

Call me a PS3 fanboy, but I think the more and more developers experience with the PS3, the more they will like it.

I think it's a matter of change that is what is holding the PS3 back now. Once all these PS3 exclusives come out, we should see a lot more games (exclusives or not) going to the PS3.

Now, all I need is to get one.
