2009 is a rather difficult year as far as Microsoft is concerned, apart from the Halo jing bang lot, the 360 exactly does not have anything specifically to boast about. Alan Wake still seems like a ruptured dream and although numerous hints have been dropped on Killer Instinct III hitting the 360 no concrete information is still available. The only big exclusive that we know that's hitting the 360 is "Lost and Damned" expansion pack from GTA IV. The only way out of this hot chicken soup consisting of Sony's stellar lineup is trying to trace the announced games available exclusively on the 360 platform.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
What a Load of Crap
nothing's been announced yet. can't say i'm completely NOT worried, but I think there are at least a few games MS hasn't shown off yet.
It's hard to be excited about the 360 when 75% of those titles haven't been officially confirmed for 2009. If the biggest confirmed titles are GTA4 DLC, a Halo RTS, and a $30 Halo spin-off, I'll pass.
And the whole "uuh, Microsoft just hasn't ANNOUNCED anything yet! Just wait and see!" is entirely lame. What was that ONE game that Microsoft didn't announce this year? Gears 2. That's it. Is ONE game at the END of the year worth it? Is that the sort of glorious "unannounced" game you're banking on?
guys you always forget the souljaboi exclusive com'on!!!
will see.
the only thing i know is that Sony, always announces lots more games than what they actually deliver. MS has been thus far more conservative.
So i do not know.
However, if we compare the exclusives that heve been announced (assuming that it is not bull, and they actually release in 09), i have to agree that SOny has the edge.
but again the jury is still out. I heard the same exact thing in 07.
