That's my GameStop and they are having a midnight launch. Bet!
The Dark Queen in Battletoads.
"Price and competition. The price is the main thing, but again, it seems Sony is working to bring the price down. Competition this time around is fierce. And that is great for gamers but with Xbox battling hard for the hardcore gamer and Nintendo being the king of the casual space, the Playstation 3 is seeing its once dominant stance challenged on both sides. With Playstation 2, there was only one competitor: the Gamecube. Dreamcast had come and gone- for the most part- by the time PS2 w...
Yes, I'm saying 3rd party, non-UE3 engines don't stack up against Sony 1st party engines. With the two examples you gave, KZ2 and Uncharted 2, both of those look better than Lost Planet 2, imo. So what position does that put Capcom in? Show off their new engine on the PS3 too, where the bar is still higher than they (Capcom) can reach (doing multiplatform development)?
They're going to pimp the sh1t outta their engine (MT Framework 2.0) and release it on the both consoles.
Sa da tay!
New to the business view of gaming Foxgod? Or are you being sarcastic?
Sony makes their exclusives, just like Nintendo. MS buys them because they don't have the internal girth to do what Sony and Nintendo do.
Also, what about Ninja Blade would make ANYONE think the 360 is "still really strong"?
@ Soda
No, but it doesn't scream HIT to me. It doesn't scream HIT period. But does it need to? Does it need a counterfeit cult following? If eyes weren't on MS's exclusive lineup (or lack thereof) I don't think this game would matter...
I think the "exclusive" reveal was on the 360 for two reasons:
1)Gaming devs are competitive to a certain degree. When you look at the engines being built by Sony 1st parties (compared to 3rd party non-UE3 games), they just don't stand up. Sure they look good, some even great, but still not AS good. Capcom wanted to show off MT Framework 2.0 more than LP2.
2)It wouldn't have been that impressive an announcement on PS3, in lieu of the exclusives they've alre...
I can criticize Sony. I just don't need to use 4yr of pics of products that were never manufactured to do it. I've played plenty of FPS on the 360 and gone to an FPS on the PS3, with little or no complaint (outside the sh1tty dpad, LB/RB button and the fact MS found a way to nickel and dime consumers with a controller). Have fun with 6 controller revisions because ya can't get it right the first time. This aint the ipod or DS you know, it's a controller.
DualShock hasn't been changed because it doesn't need to be changed imo. You're living in the past tense, complaining because something was removed, then added back. Now we're worried about the rechargeable battery, as if that is some leg to stand on. I'm not sure what I'll do in the 8yrs it'll take to die. Of course, I would rather have the option to buy a rechargeable battery and use a proprietary USB (oxy moron) cable.
Why should ANY console need 3-4 controller iterations in ...
I would only add the LB/RB buttons are complete trash.
The Space Boomerang, that never came to be? Yeah, I remember it. Do you remember the boat anchor the original Xbox shipped with? Since we're taking a trip through time.
I don't have a problem with my current 360 controller and don't see the need in feeding MS's nickel and dime strategy. It's a testament to the design of a controller when it virtually goes unchanged for as long as the DualShock line has. This is all subjective though as it boils down to taste. I've played PS systems longer and are more used to their controllers.
Haha jtucker78. Bubbles back, although, I'm a Yank.
They sure as hell do.
We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance
Because it isn't. They know it and we know it. Now game ANNOUNCEMENTS are exclusive. Haha. If it controls like the first, I'll pass. The co-op did look fun as hell though.
Agreed. That games screams character.
Stunning. The paintball guns really added a new dynamic to LBP I hadn't paid attention to.
