Chris Buffa (Modojo): When it comes to handhelds, most people ask the same question: how long until companies go 100 percent digital?
We, on the other hand, decided to go one step further: when will hardware manufacturers ditch buttons entirely?
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.

Buttonless? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
No.
when they dont want me to play videogames anymore.
I like certain touchscreen games, but I really want to keep buttons, thanks.
never. Not even a possibility. Nintendo and sony will never have that shit. And they havent
Ever tried to play console type games with just a touchscreen. I have and it does not go well. Just play any old Mario or Zelda and the controls constantly get in the way. The n64 emulator does an even better job of showing why it doesn't work nearly as well. I play on consoles and hand helds with buttons because it's practical. Sure there are exceptions to the rule, but those are rare and the effort put forth by those developers is never emulated by others in a good way because most want the quick cash grab. There needs to be some sort of feedback besides a vibrating mechanism. Humans have hands that use touch as a way to experience things and need a tangible object to help relay between what the eye sees and the hands are doing. Kinect works (for the most part) because you use the visual aids to see and gauge your actions. Touch controls on a phone block the view and take you out of the experience. Touch controls will stay right where they have been, cheap cash grab mini games on cell phones. Unless they are coupled with something that has buttons like the DS, 3DS and Sony Vita.
