I think the hole thing did cost around 50 million $, but that is also to help make the engine, not only the game. But nontheless, some people forget that a game in the US costs about 60$ while in the Europe (at least in my country) it costs 60 or allmost 70 Euros (thats 79.6$ and 92.9$) so do the math, to break even in Europe alone (taking the avarage price of 86$(thats 65E)) it means it must sell 580k copies of the game.
With such high price points, almost every dev makes (on an...
would you have been in your bathtub, I would have given you bubbles ;)
hahahahaha
you would think it was more an ad from Sony than from microsoft. Buying a Sony computer with Blu Ray! lol
Well at least Sony can cut back on marketing, it seems others are willing to do the job for them lol
Edit: btw, why buy a laptop for 1500$ if he wants to game on it???
With half that money he can have a high end PC (tower), made for gaming, and with the other half his mother can buy a very decent laptop to check her mails and other basic stuff :/ ...
If his entire post was a hint then:
1)More ranks: "By now, you Killzone 2 multiplayer fans should be leveled up close to General"
2)New guns(?): "You should know how deadly the shotgun can be"
3)New maps: "and where to set up your sentry bots in Salamun Market" (maybe meaning we know all maps by hart and that more are coming)
If those three things are in the DLC I would be very happy. But I know the chances are...
Isn't the DS a handheld and the PS2 a console? How can you put PS2 and DS in the same category??
If they talked about the Wii, I would have understood, and had no problem, but the DS?
News!!: Sony just told us that the PSP sold in 4/5 year almost half of what the PS2 sold up to now, with 50 milion PSPs sold. Sony says they are confident the PSP will reach the same number as the PS2 in 5 more years. (that was sarcasm duh)
I think they said the 256 players where to be divided, first and most obviously in 2 sides, and from there you'll be part of an 8 man squad, in this squad the highest ranking is squad leader. Each squads or a couple of squads together, will have certain missions to accomplish, so you won't see 256 players on the same spot in a chaotic battle (I think it'll be a bit like Resistance 2, (objective based, with multiple squads))
That's all I remember of the top of my head.
If an...
No worries! Your health regenerates after being shot....., doesn't it?
Are those 2 million only those who went online? or is it online and non-online players?
Because when they say 'community' I think more of online.
If those 2 million are only for the online then it is very impressive.
Aren't nearly all JRPGs doing that allready????
I hate it when a developper says it utilises 100 percent of the power. You just know thats bull****. They should say that with their current knowledge, technology,... they utilise 100 percent; because those 100 percent might become 70 percent compared with what they could do in a few years. The games do get better (visualy, technically, ect) when time passes (just look at PS2, with GOW I&II, wich blew peoples mind, because no one thought it could do what it did with those games).
F...
"Wow! Sony is building hype again!!!"
Who is building hype??? Sony only said they had a 'big' announcement, and that's all. The hype is made by the media itself, and of course some fanboys.
10 to 1 the same sites building up 'the hype' (in a way just like kotaku), will be the first to say how dissapointed and how bad Sony is doing, if the announcement doens't live up to 'the hype' (wich they contributed for the most part).
Why make such a big deal out of it?...
So is every game a AAA game? Here in Europe the starting price is almost allways at 60 euros (79.7 USD), and trust me not all of them are AAA.
You know how happy I would be if games where at 60 USD! It would be something like 45 euros!!!
You hear people complaining how many buy second hand games, and how bad it is for the industry. If you lowerd your prices I would gladly buy a lot more new games but at 80 USD a game, it's a bit exagerated.
An example: monster vs aliens (gam...
LBP was a made is Europe, but NA got it earlier by a week. KZ2 was only 2 days earlier in Europe.
Another advantage is that you don't have to wait longer for japanese games to come in your region; we must sometimes wait for a year until it comes here.
We don't eaven have PSN cards!!!! meaning if you live in Europe, don't have a credit card, you have no possibility to buy anything from the PSn store, wich sucks (no dlc, no games,...).
So how do you think we feel.
So ...
Well I have to agree with Zeus Lee on the fact that marketting was terrible. The only time I saw an advert for KZ2 was 2 weeks after its release!!, and you would be very lucky to be able to find it again on tv. There are no posters on the streets, to advertise the game or the pack console/game. While I often saw adverts on tv, for XBox/Wii games/consoles , and I've seen many adverts on street, for the Xbox,Wii and their games. But PS3 and its games are almost non existant.
Maybe they d...
I think the score is OK. I saw someone play this game (on a streaming site) and the game is not for the mass market. It's really a niche game, that not even all RPG fans will like. It kinda shows it had not the biggest budget (they never expected to sell alot (remeber the article about this game being sold out in Japan; and it was sold out with less than 100k games sold!!, this shows they never expected it to be a hit), but for what I saw (watched him play for hours and days, while he also ga...
They always try to make you moraly guilty, so that they can promote their new action.(This can also be said about actions for charity, ect)
Just because you don't follow the trend, you're judged and labled as an 'earth' hater, a poluter, a guy without a heart and so on, even though they don't know you. But because you dont give money, or take part in the action (here lights off), then thay pass judgment on you
When they put all this publicity with this action, my first feeling is...
I prefer being a marcus fenix instead of those JRPG 'guys' , where you're often not sure if it is in reality a guy or not lol
Agree. It's not as if it's a surprise. we all knew it was coming, so who cares when they announce it 'officialy'.
Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled to know modern warfare 2 will come out, but I really hope the big announcement is something less obvious, and coming more as a surprise.
First the comments about the PS3 where more like: "the power of the PS3, hahaha, the best looking games (visualy and technicaly) are made on the Xbox"
"where is the power of teh cell lol?"
Now we don't argue the power of the PS3, but we spin it and say that the power of the Playstation 3 is being made obsolete by OnLive.
Give me a break.
lol
PS: hope Xbox fans don't get agry. I have got nothing against that console; what I wrote ...
Outshined,... who knows?
What is certain is that there will be 'surprises', being that we know nothing about future possible Xbox games, while we allready know what to expect at E3 from Sony. So of course there will be more focus on what M$ has to offer (because of people saying they have no games this year). Just wait and see no need for speculations and rumors. Those things attract to many fanboys, who ruin the discussion.
