Of course it will be announced for the 360. Just like the FFVII remake for the PS3. Oh and Halo 3.
Okay, seriously everyone, can we put these things aside until there are announcements?
"Selfish and irresponsible"? Sounds like little kids fighting over something.
Just the bigger HDD.
Tretton said in an interview that BC will be phased out because "they decided to".
Here are hopes they will reintroduce PS2 BC as soon as the PS2 sales decline. But don't count on it.
RIP Kasumi, Hitomi and all the other bouncy breasts... you will be missed.
No Kareem, in Europe it isn't. Only the US has a BC SKU. One would think after all the news, people would know by now.
Seconded and signed. PS2 was THE home of RPGs, let's hope they can claim that spot again this generation.
Read people, don't just look at the pretty pictures.
NO PS2 BC
NO PS2 BC
NO PS2 BC
NO PS2 BC
Everybody got it now?
You can't read, can you? This is basically the same as the 40GB SKU, except for a bigger HDD. It still lacks the features the old SKU did.
Exactly what I wrote yesterday... Somebody should go and slap those fools at SCEE. Hard.
They announced the PS3 would have BC and now they don't even sell those. That's ass.
Damn right would be to release a PS2 BC version here AGAIN after they DISCONTINUED it.
Just glad I got my 60GB when it launched.
Apparently yes, but that doesn't help me at all, since im living in Germany a.k.a. the country in Europe that sucks the most.
True enough, but try to use logic on 600.000 360 owners (yes I actually looked up that number in Wikipedia) that won't get a game they want so hard.
If SE really wants to mess with them, they make the US and EU versions for the 360 region locked...
This conference was the biggest "F' YOU!" to the "hardcore" crowd I could have ever imagined.
I owned every Nintendo console, the NES, the SNES, the N64 and I even endured the GameCube. What do these have in common with each other? It was about the games, games that would mark themselves as milestones of gaming history. Super Mario Bros., Zelda, Metroid - those are the games that made Nintendo what it is today, that revived the almost dead gaming market back then. <...
No plans for a "complete" (cardreaders, 4x USB, PS2 BC) PS3 for anywhere but the US... Come on Sony, I know a lot of people that don't buy the 40GB (soon 80GB?) stripped version just because it doesn't offer all the things it COULD.
Should my 60GB (bought on EU launch) ever break, you better not try to give me one of those "half-assed" ones (you guys know what I mean) in return...
Exactly.
Why can't people that send in news read?
Arsenic: This SKU won't have PS2 BC.
Somehow, whenever I read Valve and EA in one sentence, I have this taste of puke in my mouth. I wonder why...
Betrayal...
SE is a business, first and most of all. Besides, I invite everyone to look up the sales figures for Final Fantasy XII. Where did it sell the most copies?
In Japan. More than DOUBLE the amount of copies than in Europe. FF is a giant cult in Japan.
Who sells it exclusively in Japan? Sony.
Who got a nice boost to fund more games? SE.
Who has got a title that not only is time exclusive (as far as said yet) for the enemys console, but for the two territor...
Exactly my thought. Somebody should tell them before they can't return them.
"Well MGS 2 was done for the original xbox so don't be surprised if it happens."
Gotta love that "argument". Where has MGS3 been, then?
Anyway, I have faith in Kojima's words. Besides, seeing an Apple sponsored game on a MSFT console is something I can't imagine.
Let me guess, one of the biggest hints is that you can turn 360 degrees? OMG MEGATON!!
