C'mon Sony, stand your Ground

If someone has Sony Computer Entertainment of Europe's balls please give them back.

Ru6915d ago

this article deserves to see the light of day dont dismiss it because of the numerouse stories on it..
This is a new outlook on perspective.

And I for one believe in what this article is saying and it happens to represent how most gamers are probably feeling.

TrenchaunT6915d ago

It's a very crummy argument. Just because in World War 3 churches were destroyed it's somehow OK to act irreverently toward something which people feel is sacred? It really has to do with respecting other people and their traditions and beliefs. For example, if your favorite sister with whom you were very close died, then her grave would be sacred to you. Now if someone made a video game which happened to portray that part of the graveyard with lifelike realism, to the extent that it actually had her name on the grave with the proper inscription, I'm sure you would be pissed if the game involved ramming the headstone with a truck or splattering someone's brains out over it.

Hmm, I don't know what to say about the many reportings, but the article has a point. I do agree that the Church really does not have any grounds on what they are pursuing. Whether his argument is good or not is up for anyone to decide, not going to comment on its integrity (just skimmed through it, not in the mood to analyze).

@coyote: you do have some good points there. don't know what to say about whether this is news worthy

dissectionalrr6915d ago

i find it funny that the group of people who are responsible (indirectly) for the vast majority of death and destruction over the course of human history have a problem with violence. religion and violence are like peas and carrots. it's really quite hypocritical. maybe if you were fighting jews instead of aliens they wouldn't have minded so much.

Ru6915d ago (Edited 6915d ago )

not Freedom when some will not get offended...
Screams out from this article.

Most of the time I agree with some of your reports but this one Im gald made it, and not just because it was my submission, but because all gamers need to really think why are we being prosicuted for this? Why is it that because a church (another giant orinazation/company)can try/manage to take away our most valuable rights, If one cannot make there own descisions on what to play or not to play who will, The Church? ESRB does just fine and I support that, but definately not what this church is trying to do.

The Snake6915d ago

True. Censoring things just because someone gets offended by them is the opposite of freedom.

I hope Sony holds their ground on this.

News posting sources

When posting a news story always link to the original source of the story. (((Most websites just recycle news from other websites.))) Try to track down the site that posted the story first and use that site’s story as the basis for your N4G news post. You can still give credit to the website you first found the story on by putting their address in the “Credit” form.

There are however some situations where linking to another site than the original source is ok. If a website has an updated version of the story with new info or if their article is a lot better written than the original it is ok to link to that article instead. But the general rule is to always link to the original source of a story.

(((Also internet forums and message boards do not normally qualify as a reliable source.))) However linking to screenshots and videos posted on forums is ok. You can also link to forum posts if the post is made by a developer or other industry professionals.

Also, don't forget to thank the Xbot Chris for the points you make from this story.

razer6915d ago

How are we being prosecuted? Sounds a little dramatic.

This is a much deeper issue in freedom of expression vs offending someone. We live in a society today that doesn't have much respect for the past and as soon as someone questions expression they are immediately prosecuted as trying take away freedom. We need to have some respect for holy places whether we agree with them or not.. But I digress.

I'd like to see Insomniac make a game where they show the face of the prophet Muhammed and blow up some sacred sites.. They won't because they know there offices would be blown up.. They picked an easy target with this one(ie p*ssies) but it's OK they will only rot in hell for it.

Ru6915d ago (Edited 6915d ago )

Do you even listen to yourself?
This Source I submitted was correct and has new more relevent context.
If I was to submit the appology statement from Sony that would be incoherent and also duplicate.
Also this was written by a respected contributer at YouNewb.com
I cant belive giving your Nickname here, you would not want to back Sony, Cause thats what im doin... Im also backing all of gamers rights.

ITR6915d ago

Like I said before..Sony is going to settle out of court.

They are currently negotiating stipulations now.
Like pulling the game/donations/censoring the game...and whatever else they decide on.

Ru6915d ago

Why? If either of them have some balls and believe in what they are spewing there would be no settleing.
Sony needs to take a stance and I would hope if MS was in the same shoes they would as well, Not for the sake of the company but for the sake of the Gamer and to defend the rights of humanity!

I dont like to sound so cheesy and or arrogant but this is a push button argument.

It’s Time for Sony to Bring Back Killzone and Resistance

Sony is in the middle of an FPS crisis, but bringing back two much-loved PlayStation shooters could easily be the solution.

shinoff2183716d ago

I'd rather them focus on a rpg. Shooters can wait

just_looken716d ago

We have alot of rpg's but only cod for a AAA first person shooter unless you toss in xdefient but that is still fixing 2yr old beta issues.

We need more AAA fps games then rpg's

shinoff2183716d ago

Yea right. Theirs so many shooters on the market.

just_looken716d ago

@shin

Name 3 AAA fps games coming out this year

Cacabunga716d ago

I want Killzone yea, but as a gaas no buy!

Cacabunga715d ago

Yes we need some new FPS experiences.. COD is just not engaging enough. We want a Killzone back to the roots, not a Shadow Fall again..

Crows90716d ago

There's tons of RPG in the market too...what's your point exactly.

RaidenBlack715d ago

No Killzone or Resistance or Factions for you ... only Concord & FairGame$

Ironmike716d ago

No more rpg for a while would love a new resistance though

DarXyde716d ago

Agree on preferring RPGs though at this exact moment, it would be great to see more horror games. Another reason why Japan Studio closing is just tragic. Loved Siren.

just_looken716d ago (Edited 716d ago )

Fuck jim ryan japan studio did so much and helped alot with ports/localization

If they were around bloodborn would be possible like how they helped with demon souls ps4 finial fantasy port.

Horror games would be nice but the jim ryan axe job helped alot in killing playstation dev numbers/freedom and increased regulation with the new censorship crap.

1Victor716d ago

If Sony is bringing back a old shooter I would prefer Warhawk or better yet Starhawk

Rynxie716d ago

No thanks. Resistance and killzone were my all time favorite fps games. I completely dominated those games. I met good people, had a ton of fun and have a lot of fond memories. I don't want them to bring back these games, unless they tackle the cheating epidemic. I know I will absolutely hate these games, if I was to play them now, with all the effing cheating going on in fps games.

Psychonaut85716d ago

Bro the market is oversaturated with quality RPGs AND bloated shitty RPGs already.

Inverno716d ago

I honestly don't think we'll be seeing these anytime soon, if ever. Insomniac is officially on Marvel duty since it seems that all they're working on based off the leaks, and Horizon is more of what the casuals want these days. And I now I'll get a bunch of disagrees, but keep in mind that Resistance last got a game on the PS3 (2011) and Killzone was a launch title for the PS4 (2013). 10 years is a long time to make a game, if had any interest they would've done it by now, add InFamous to that list.

just_looken716d ago (Edited 716d ago )

Your right except the dates killzone mercenary was on ps vita 2013 same with resistance burning skies back in 2012

Good-Smurf716d ago

Both of those games are either made by smaller B team or completely different developer.
Killzone Mercenary developed by Guerilla Cambridge which is now defunct.
Resistamce Burning Skies wasn't made by Insomniac but by Nihilistic Software also defunct after the failure of CoD Black Ops Declassified.

just_looken716d ago

@good i know i never said they were

I mentioned them as they were the last games under that ip well killzone was last on ps4 but still even though they are different devs they led to the lose of the ip.

I highly doubt they made up for there budget cost even killzone on ps4 had low sales for such a large ip at the time.

shinoff2183716d ago

Infamous should atleast get remastered. I'd be cool with that

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH716d ago

Resistance 3 turned me off to the series but I’d love a reboot. KillZone I think can stay dead. Give me a new Resistance like 1or 2 and I’ll be happy.

JEECE716d ago

Except Resistance 1 and 3 were far more similar, 2 was the outlier. 3 was a great return to form after 2 changed so many things from the first game.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH716d ago

I didn’t like 3 and I didn’t find it similar to the first game.

Moegooner716d ago

2 was the best resistance game.

Michiel1989716d ago

agreed, the co-op was my fav in 2

Michiel1989716d ago

I'll keep saying it, have Bungie make a new resistance game, a match made in heaven. Although I imagine Bungie would be too proud to take over an existing IP.

Huey_My_D_Long716d ago

I honestly never cared or liked killzone. Huge resistance fan though. I remember so many nights playing melee only on USS Lexington, and I like the alt history vibe.

InUrFoxHole716d ago

Liked KZ more but both those games are better than MAG

Huey_My_D_Long716d ago

Facts.
Since I'm down memory lane, I also wish for remaster of Warhawk.

P_Bomb716d ago

I’ve been barking up that tree for years. 😢

OtterX716d ago

Keep barking, boy! Keep barking! Never give up hope. ;)

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX806d ago (Edited 806d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro806d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72806d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_806d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga806d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos805d ago (Edited 805d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23805d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000806d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin806d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole806d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix806d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989806d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor806d ago (Edited 806d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Ranking the Resistance Games From Worst To Best

While it's been on ice for as long as it was around, the Resistance franchise has no shortage of quality.

Knushwood Butt1482d ago

My take:

Single player
3, 2, 1

Multiplayer
3, 1, 2

Overall
3, 2, 1

I beat the lengthy single player in 1 multiple times and spent hours in the online too. Plus 1 featured my home town! Special mention to the audio design in 1: playing that with surround headphones blew me away.

Note: I have the platinum for Resistance 2.

Eidolon1481d ago

Resistance 1 MP will always be my favorite. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but that was my jam, felt more balance, natural.

Miraak82 1481d ago

i have the platinium too , 10k kills in online ranked matches was no joke . Took me 3-4 months straight grinding but it was fun . To put it in perspective you only got like 25 kills per match if you were 1st place every match that's at Least 400 matches in 1st

Sciurus_vulgaris1482d ago

I only played the 3 main Resistance titles. My ranking would be;
1. Resistance 3
2. Resistance: Fall of Man
3. Resistance 2

GoodGuy091482d ago

Man I loved 3's campaign. Another gem stuck on the ps3 and who knows if insomniac will go back to the franchise.

fr0sty1481d ago

Resistance, Warhawk, MAG, Motorstorm, there's so many first party gems on PS3 that Sony has just left to die...

P_Bomb1482d ago

Never played Burning Skies but I still have Retribution.

monkey6021482d ago

Burning Skies was about 3 hours long and rather inconsequential. You haven't missed anything

porkChop1481d ago

Honestly, Burning Skies was shit. There's no two ways about it. At first I thought it looked terrible, then I second guessed myself. Big mistake.

darthv721480d ago

Retribution has this really cool feature where you could use a PS3 to link a controller to it and play. So if you had a 2000 or 3000 hooked to a tv, you can use a real controller. All of this predates the PSP Go's ability to sync a sixaxis to it via bluetooth.

Yui_Suzumiya1481d ago

Resistance 3 was shocking and brilliant. Loved it.
