I dont know what insomniac is doing. between this and handing the R&C franchise to their "B team" who have run it into the ground, insomniac is really losing focus and losing their old sense of ambition. it pains me to say this, because they are my favorite developer ever
maybe they will give it to a different developer. I think they should have had a more experienced developer make the game from the start.
its like "hey, we are going to make a big fighting game with all the sony characters... and to make this monumental title lets get somebody that no one has ever head of!"
you think people are being rough on the wii u now? wait until the PS4 announcement. 2/20/13 is going to be a dark day for nintendo fanboys.
from what I played of the demo, the game is totally bereft of pacing, tension, atmosphere, and realism. i think a 7.75/10 is being generous
the whole "competition" argument only applies to sony and microsoft really, when you actually to the time to look at the results. sony and microsoft push each other in terms of features and tech power.
what did the wii push? what was the result of the wii's competition with the PS3 and xbox? the kinect and the move. i think that says it all right there
nintendo is simply not contributing anything of substance to the hardware industry. all they ...
why is there a large negative outlook on nintendo?
1) the obnoxious nintendo fanboys. people who act like nintendo is still the "be all end all" of the gaming industry. when anyone with an ounce of insight can see that nintendo isnt pushing any sort of innovation. all they are pushing are casual gimmicks. These nintendo fanboys do more than anyone to turn people off the nintendo brand. these are people who still cant even bring themselves to admit that the PS2 had a...
this series has fallen so far away from what the first game was that its depressing
2/20/2013
otherwise known as "the Wii U's funeral"
S*** just got real
"PS4" is fine. its a safe name choice. they didnt need to get crazy with it. having a simple number system is good.
look at any of the rumored PS4 and 720 specs and accounts from people working with the dev kits (like EA is doing). the PS4 and 720 utterly trounce the wii u.
there is no denying it at this point. the wii u's only hope was that the next xbox and playstation consoles would be just as underpowered as the wii u. and they are not. this was not difficult to predict, for anyone whose brain wasn't pickled in fanboyism.
of course, even now, as the evidence i...
Why??? just because people don't want to play another rehash of FF13 (which itself received mixed opinions), and just because they rejected your flop MMO, that doesnt mean that there is something intrinsically wrong with the final fantasy franchise. there is something wrong with YOU, square enix, and you alone.
here's an idea, and im just throwing this out there, but how about you actually try injecting some ambition and some innovation into the series? im not sure if...
dead space 1 was an atmospheric, original, masterpiece of survival horror
dead space 2 was wattered down, action schlock with a few scares.
dead space 3 looks like its diving headfirst into the realm of casual garbage.
having one great game and one on the way doesnt make you the next RPG conglomerate. Dont get me wrong. xenoblade kicks the s*** out of anything that square has put out this gen, but square has done quite alot for in past 25 years.
looks great, but this is square enix so.... ETA 5 years? never underestimate their incompetence
i hope the PS4 doesn't look like that.
i dont know why, but the prism shaped casing looks incredibly cheap and tacky. like something you would find at a yard sale.
at least they acknowledge the existence of naughty dog and admit that uncharted is where the inspiration came from.
of course, they cant expect everyone to just be cool with that. there's a fine line between paying homage and ripping off. most people will see it as the latter
i dont know why my fellow vita owners should be up in arms about this. ive played Revelations, and the game is mediocre at best.
im not sure exactly who they surveyed, but no serious gamer is going to tell you that the nintendo network offers better features and better customer service than PSN or xbox live. the very notion is laughable.
with its third rate Eshop, sub par video streaming, lack of apps, and restrictive account system (friend codes with the wii and console locking with the wii u) the nintendo network is universally seen as a joke, amongst gamers.
RE6 got a 9/10 from PSM, before the game was released to the public
just saying
