"As a purely hypothetical thread we are posing a simple question, what would the ultimate ps3 game be like?
We are starting this thread as a continually updated story thread, in which we will outline the specifics of what you the community thinks the ultimate game should be like, bit by bit. We will present it as if we are outlining a story however this will give us the opptunity to insert specific details like weapons or characters as we go. We will add the next part of the game to this post by choosing the best suggestion we receive."
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
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.
Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.
Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.
It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst
Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.
S2Killinit
live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating
Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.
Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.
This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality
..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....
...Really???
PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.
Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.
He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.
More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.
Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.
Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.
All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
Pathetic huh.
for one it has to have a great controlling scheme that feel intuitive
great graphics, just pretty to look at, with a great atmosphere .
a story to be the envy by everybody that work in any type of media
a great main character that make you want to play all the time
BIG boss battles and a SUPER, ULTRA BIG Final Boss you will remember until the end of times
it kinda reminded me of GOW3 too, lol
MetalZone Solid
I can only speak for my 29 year old self when I say the ultimate game would have both old and new in it--- this is no short order. Ico did it with SotC, thanks to Zelda, and some beautiful atmosphere, amazingly enthralling bosses. Take the wonder of Super Mario, Zelda, Kid Icarus, and Metroid and add to it the stories of FF, DragonQuest, ChronoTrigger and Suikoden.
For me, its always always always going to be about story and gameplay, but it is no coincidence that my all time favorite games were graphically on par or superior to the games of their time. Graphics should be the tool to show something in a new light effectively, but it is the story, the imagination that delivers through the symbology.
On a minor note a positive thing to see incorporated more in videogames is the ability to play all styles, either through multiple characters, unique or different, so that each game would feel more tailored to the gameplay style, not as defined. This is not needed in all cases, but remember the difference in Super Mario 2?
The neat thing about the best and ultimate video games is that they remind me of the future of Virtual Reality, and also the past of day dreaming when I was 5 years old.
