On Gamer.TV on Sunday there was an interview with the Head of R & D for Capcom. He stated that Capcom will not be using the motion-sensing capabilities of the Sixaxis controller in any of their upcoming PS3 games.
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.
"I thought that Devil May Cry was going to use it?"
Obviously not now that its coming on 360.
I bet they wanted to use it in there games but cant because they are now multiplatform. Man the 360 is definately gonna hold the PS3 back!!!
i'm guessing DMC4 does not have it cause there are no "planes" to fly? not as innovative as Wii? what was that?
please don't tell us that the actual reason was you were tying to balance the game because 360 does not have motion-control thingy.
we all thought DMC4 had sixaxis features... let's wait and see.
EDIT: @conan (above)
he he he... i agree... but i personally don't want to point the fingers right now. right now i'm on the "assumption" level. q:
That Capcom doesn't want their games to be gimmicky.
It's not like it's a Wii, where the whole controller was built from the ground up with motion in mind, the PS3 just added it as an afterthought. It works well, but you don't "need" it in anything (possibly Lair will fix that).
LOL plenty of other devs think otherwise and are putting sixaxis to good use so..
d'ah well.
capcom well there goin where the money is at right now..and microsoft is slappin them in the face with their green papers..lol.and shovin up their rear..the fact that capcom did say devil may cry 4 will be usin the SIXAXIS then all the sudden change it is because their workin on both the ps3 and 360 version.they dont want to screw up gameplay for the dmc4 on the 360 since their is no motion sensing in their controller..
@5.1: what is the main reason that they take it out?? maybe motion sensing have to do somethin with gameplay or part of the game..and its more extra work for capcom..so they probaly feel like since the ps3 installed base isnt big enoough why would they put the extra time into it?? a lot of devlopers is takin the easy way out..they rather go the 360..and what games are you talkin about??
If capcom dont like it they can go screw themself..lol..a lot of people lost respect for them anyways..they let money control them..
