what if the developer's decision actually makes the product better/more popular? Would fans still not buy? Also, wouldn't those fans be replaced by new ones?
but this is why I'm starting to sway towards the developers side. I mean, there's never going to be a point where everyone is satisfied.(Cole being a perfect example) I simply think creators have forgotten that you simply cannot please everyone(and you never will).
on one hand, we are the ones who have to buy these products.
but on the other, THEY are the experts on creating great games, not us. Infact, I always hate when a fan thinks they can do better than the creator(s). Yet when asked how they'd improve the product, their ideas are either amateurish or nonsensical at best.
but, developers can make bad decisions to, I guess. So I'm really not sure who should have last word.
I understand that, and I hate sellouts just as much as the next guy, but, what if these fans you are catering to are a very tiny group? and what if the decisions they want you to make stop you from appealing to a much wider audience? Aren't fans then hurting the very product/franchise that they love?
not to mention, those situations where the fans actually make the product worse(though that could also happen by trying to please non-fans)
one things for ...
God of War: GOS is on the psp, NOT God of War III. Therefore God of War III IS exclusive to the ps3. The same goes for Kilzone 2&3, aswell as Littlebigplanet 2.
While Fable 3 and Xcom ARE indeed on MULTIPLE platforms. (not to mention, they are also a platform not owned by MS. While the psp platform is owned by Sony.)
Nomura(who does indeed work as SE) said that stuff himself, genius.
that Versus is very much a work-in-progress. Nomura didn't even intend for us to see this initially(the people judging it from this short clip are most likely the reason why). I mean come on people, the video doesn't even have HUD.
January's almost here guys, we'll most likely get a proper look at the title then.
just to go on talk about how quantom theory is a GeoW rip-off? Besides, wasn't it xbox fans that said Uncharted stole GeoW's cover system? What about when they said that Infamous was a crackdown clone? Why do xbots pretend they don't say and do the same stupid sh!t ps3 fanboys do?
oh and for the record, i do agree that just because a game isn't original doesn't make it bad, but i don't see many people saying otherwise, so i don't really get why you...
this article is NOT about the entire Castlevania franchise, just Lords of Shadow.
Secondly, it's not so much the whip that's a rip-off, it's HOW Gabriel USES IT in this particular game.
anyone who says LOS wasn't at the very least inspired by GOW has failed to play both titles. I mean, is just a coincidence that Gabriel uses direct attacks with square and long ranged attacks with triangle(similar, if not exactly the same as GOW)? Or what abo...
you're thinking of Dissidia 012, for the psp.
Versus has the same mythology(about crystals). but not much else. and the battle system is based of kingdom hearts by the way.
i don't blame you for being confused though. It's a lot to keep up with.
if other devs can reach parody between platforms why the hell is Ninja Theory somehow exempt from it? You'd demand it from any other devs so why not them? Would you pay full price for your chevy if it wasn't as good as someone elses model of THE SAME CAR? Are you AS A CONSUMER, not entitled to the same amount of quality as other people?
That had to be one of the dumbest things I've read all year.(the worse part is, i bet you thought that comment made all kinds of...
What about the people who re-hash Madden every year? Or Guitar Hero?
Those devs are lazy COMPARED TO our top tier devs. So why isn't okay to call them lazy? Besides, Ninja Theory have ALREADY made a quality PS3 title in the past.(that oddly enough, had little to no screen tearing.) Say what you want about other companies, but NT have NO excuse.
Square enix have definitely still got it. FFXIII might not be the most amazing game in the world, but the CG is stunning.
and I think this new trailer of Versus XIII proves that if they don't take short cuts, they can still make an awesome game. The only problem now is how long it takes them to make quality. But Versus definitely looks worth the wait.
Many have said this (Tetsuya Nomura for example.) Not sure why you are pretending this doesn't happen in every trailer released these days. (hopefully it's not because you're one of those fanboys that think anything positive about the ps3 can't possibly be real.)
oh well, your skepticism just proves how great it looks.
That's true, from a CONSUMER'S point of view. As a MANUFACTURER, an item can be so cheap that it's hard to recoup the money spent creating the product. Ironically, the ps3 itself was a good example of this when it was first released.
I love how the article trys to spin this into "Sony loses another exclusive developer" when in reality, quantic dreams were multi-platform to begin with.
@orangeskittles
but you are not going to get people to understand by calling them idiots and such. That will just make them mentally reject every point you make. No matter how much sense you're making.
you know the old saying: you catch more flies with honey th...
oh and by the way, Heavy Rain really IS unique among the sea of shooters we have these days. (unique does not mean there's nothing else like it, because then nothing would ...
folks, how do we even know that these "problems" truly even exist. Has anyone ever seen a video of a firmware bricking a console? Has anyone ever commented on this site(or any other site) that a firmware killed there ps3?Most of these articles don't even have real sources. Just "my super, secret, sources brother told me" .
and one other thing, how do we know it's not the owner's fault? they might done something stupid like turned it off while i...
3. and xbox fanboys try to spin things to try and make Sony or the ps3 look bad.
never fails.
I wasn't necessarily referring to Ninja Theory or DMC.(I actually don't care for NT or the changes they've made to the franchise either.) My scenario was more hypothetical than anything.
