GameSnark writes:"We could be close to the point where consumers like you and I refuse to pay more than £5 for a game on any handheld system meaning that the Nintendo 3DS and Sony's NGP (PSP2) will be those respective companies last handhelds. Do we really want to live in a world where immersive, deep and meaningful games only exist on home consoles because Apple bred a generation of penny-pinching gamers?"
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
TNS - NCSoft CEO admitted that AI is rapidly becoming a core part of game development, but he added that it cannot replace what makes games fun.
To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.
Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.
It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.
"Deck13 Spotlight and Just2D are proud and excited to announce that DROVA – Forsaken Kin, the acclaimed grim and dank pixel RPG, set in a mystic Celtic world and celebrated by fans all over the world, is out now on iOS and Android!" - Deck13 Spotlight and Just2D.
Nope it's making it bigger !
Yeah but theres a HUGE quality difference between what I was seeing in those NGP tech demo's, and full iOS games. I'd easily fork out £30 for say Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker...it's up there with most console games in terms of sheer quality.
This is laughable, I'd glady pay to play Uncharted, Killzone, and MGS on the go. I wouldn't mind paying to take my psn where ever i go.
I certainly play games on my iPod Touch and iPad alot more than I play games on my psp or dsi. People say that these ios devices only have games thats good to play for 5 minutes to pass time. I disagree, I have played games that I played for hours some times like World of Goo, battlefield bad company, angry birds, light cycle, and a bunch more. I will be getting the 3DS and NGP though.
I do enjoy playing pokemon on the Nintendo handhelds and a few games for the Sony handhelds. Its just with the prices the ios appstore has cant be beat. I really hope sony has some games on the ngp psn appstore for a reasable price. I dont like paying $15+ for a digital download game
IOS is not killing gaming, Handheld pricing is killing gaming. I have just as fun paying $1 for game then paying 30 bucks for psp game.
