Frontlines Fuel of War?!?!? Oh my god.. this had to be the biggest release of 08. I know everyone was looking forward to this one. Jesus christ how could sony let this one get out of their hands?!?1 I mean.. theres Killzone2/Resistance2/LittleBi gPlanet/MetalGearSolid/GranTur i smo5/DevilmayCry/Farcry2/Final Fantasy/The Agency/Motorstorm2/Uncharted2/ and about 30 others. Left.. This is a first time in the history of games that this has happened... I am so much in shock right now

At this rate... No one on the PS3 will enjoy any type of Front Lines.. except on the PC.

The PS3 probably couldn't handle the next gen graphics of THQ's masterpiece.

This has to be the absolute worst news for the ps3!

I mean theres HD-DVD dying...

Then theres the PS3 version of games being Graphically better..

Then theres the PS3 doing very well in sales..

I mean how are we supposed to sleep knowing that this AAAAAA title wont be played on our PS3's?!? What are we to do?!

bababrooks6690d ago

you must be used to cancellations now Will, in time you will get over it! there are plenty of good games for non fanboys......hehe.

Bladestar6690d ago

look at this morron.. what does HD DVD has to do with this game being cancelled on the PS3? let me guess.. Toshiba paid to get the game cancelled.

Blame yourselves for this... who ask you not to buy games... after seen the suck @$$ sell number of high profile and already stablish fanbase such as Unreal Tournament... do you expect developers to bother making games on the PS3?

You are proof of that... you only speak of Metal Gear, Final fantasy, Kill Zone 2 and other super high profile games... which I believe are the only kind of games able to bring revenue to the developers... sadly for most 3rd party developers they don't own these IPs... to most of you fanboys... only the games you keep mentioning exists... developers are just reacting to your mindset.. why work hard on stuff that you will not buy? the PS3 is not the platform for 3rd party game developers to try new IPs and ideas...

monkey6026690d ago

Bladestar it isnt really a good idea to use sales numbers on a game that is still unreleased in many areas.

aceitman6690d ago

has sold more on the ps3 than it did on pc so take that

XerockX6690d ago

If your not a little bit bummed about this,you're in denial. The demo for this game is fun and I for one was looking forward to buying this game for ps3 instead of 60 like most of the games I buy.

lawman11086690d ago

You such a bias little douche bag. God forbid you should ever have an objective opinion. I played the demo on this game and it looks like it could be alot of fun.

dantesparda6690d ago

"look at this morron.. what does HD DVD has to do with this game being cancelled on the PS3?"

Its "moron", you moron! not "morron", and its "have" not "has". Damn you're dumb. And that's just in your first sentence! I didnt even bother reading the rest of it. Waste of my time.

And Lawman, why are you talking sh!t about him having low bubbles when you have same amount of bubbles? Retard!

fusionboxer6689d ago

Was state most of the stupid posts to follow by posting them first. We all knew in some shape or form someone would mention HD DVD, other games leaving the ps3 in the past and just junk we've all heard countless times in the past.

Anyway I admit i'm a little sad this game isn't coming to the ps3 because when i originally read the article about it in Game Informer, the idea of having different objectives throughout the entire game and slowly moving your frontline forward sounded great. Also the ability to level up certain skills looked nice too.

To my dismay I was able to play the demo that came out on live a little while ago and was unimpressed, but was looking forward to the online mode. Unfortunately my live subscription just ran out so I was just gonna pick it up for the ps3 like I did burnout, but now I can't. I don't feel like renewing my live now either because i've had some difficult times in the past couple weeks getting it to work properly anyway. Whatever though i'll wallow in sadness later and just play it at a friends house.

dantesparda6686d ago

Yeah, i hear ya, but its just this guy cant even spell the word "moron", and here he is calling other people "morons". That's ironic! Him and POG are the same, both are complete and utter dumbasses

Mr_Kuwabara6690d ago (Edited 6690d ago )

But is THQ in trouble financially or something because hot damn are they cancelling projects on multiple consoles from left to right and even studios all together....

Ju6690d ago

AFAIS, the only title they have release for the PS3 so far was Stuntman Ignition and ATV vs MX (Rainbow). Seems more a trouble report about THQ then anything else. (A friend of mine worked at Stuntman, gotta ask him what's going on...).

barom6690d ago

It sure sounds like financial trouble. Come to think of it I don't really think they've had any successes recently. Most of their games bombed.

Kulupoo6690d ago

sigh~I might get this game for PC if is any good... for now more BF2 and warhawk... and burnout paradise

Sarick6689d ago

Who has plans to by them out

EA, MS Sony or Nintendo? Based on the mass cancelations it looks like their about to go belly up. A perfect opportunity to be baught out.

x box can only dream of that game

bababrooks6690d ago

mgs will be great, we will all have to dream untill it comes to a console near you.........yawn, is it here yet?

Ju6690d ago

LOL, but on the serious side, I liked the concept. I was hoping this is a more strategic oriented game, not just another shooter. Oh, well...

mighty_douche6690d ago

aahhh bummer.... resistance 2 and killzone it is then...

If you're getting something through or because of a paid subscription service -

ITS. NOT. FREE.

Stop using that word...

lindquist1945d ago

If you know that you're paying for playing online + 4 games each month, those 4 games are NOT FREE.

But if they give you 6 games one month, 2 of them are free. Agreed?

How would you phrase it then?

Godmars2901945d ago

"Games with subscription service."

Its what they are.

And yes, the same if not double for for PS+.

shuvam091944d ago

Stop being such a snob. It's an informational article. And it's free for those who have GwG, as is clearly mentioned. Going by your logic, Buy 1 get 1 free shouldn't be a thing either, since you paid for 1.

starsi3601944d ago

First, stop being so triggered. Being so angry about something so mundane is worrying, maybe you need to look into why that is.

Secondly, why don't you go round all the UK shops offering "free" iphones and android phones when you sign up to £60 a month tariffs and scream at the staff that it's not free?

Do you get angry with Amazon, that advertise that Prime comes with FREE express delivery?

360 and original xbox games are free. You can download them and play them free on 360 and xbox one offline.

darthv721945d ago

I didn't have either one of these so... why not? Can't beat the price.

Lmcreach1945d ago

Why would I want either of these games LOL

Father__Merrin1945d ago (Edited 1945d ago )

Mx unleashed has been free to gold for ages for some reason, front lines is a good freebie it's not advertised.

Both games are free to keep in xbox digi library. No subsxription required to play these games once there added. There yours to keep

Revisiting Frontlines: Fuel of War

Jason Stettner of Gamerheadquarters writes; "Frontlines: Fuel of War is a game that can honestly be forgotten, it was an average shooter and at that it certainly hasn't aged well."

LOL what a random revisit. I remember liking the demo for this game, but never bothered buying it.

skycaptin53220d ago

I bought it at launch, the game has been sitting here for years and it became backwards compatible so I was like meh why not

Profchaos3220d ago

I remember buying it for $2 on steam and playing it for 20 minutes

Asuka3220d ago

Completely forgot about this game. Remember being hyped about it... probably not that hyped about it seeing as how i never bought it amd forgot about it haha

Scatpants3220d ago

I wanted this game to be good but it was bad. Interesting ideas though.

Sidewinder-3220d ago

Wasn't a bad game. Clunky, but enjoyable. I still remember one of the loading screen captions; real poignant and deep...

Hopefully they can bring these titles successfully into the next generation

cannon88004774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

They really need to bring red faction back to life, that game is loved by many... and those other games too but I love red faction more than any of those other games. Bring back the destruction!

ftwrthtx4774d ago

Nice to see they are looking for input from the people that will either buy the games or not.

Game4life4774d ago

Just keep Darksiders true to the franchise and im happy

Heavenly King4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

Darksiders 3 needs to be more like 1. Darksiders 2 was a very deluded experience in order to be longer.

And please hire Madureira as the creative director of the game please! His art made the game alive. If the art style changes the whole game will be a piece of generic crap.

Roccetarius4774d ago (Edited 4774d ago )

I have to admit, the loot system in Darksiders 2 felt like an obstacle instead. I think the first game nailed Darksiders better. They probably had good intentions with making it more RPG, but the animations, amongst other things suffered for it.

RBlue_Desire4774d ago

Agreed, most of DS2 felt like a chore to me with more platforming than action.
I am not saying I didn't liked the platforming, its just it was too much and was bit of a chore to me.

DS1 had little low amount of platforming, lack of verticality but it did good.

Hazmat134774d ago

i want you to take Geo-Mod and turn that up 11 i wanna see 50 story building fall and big beautiful towers come crashing down. i want a next gen destruction physics engine.
