I feel the same way about digital distribution as both of you. We all like the Idea of having tangible stuff. But the problem it's that whether we like it or not the world is changing into this. Companies are trying to reduce the production cost while trying to find ways to reach more and more people with their products. That's I think most of us will not have a choice and will have to adapt to this. The good thing about it is that we get used to things faster than what we think. Trust me not...
"Stores across the globe are about to make a killing of a profit as the Wii and Playstation 3 launch" That may be true only they can cover the demands. I can tell you that the 360 will sell more units, simply because they are ready to supply the demands. The wii and PS3 will most likely better numbers next year. Unless they have lots of consoles that we don't know about (Nintendo may).
You are right! I agree 100% Japan it's important. It's alway better to make more money. But unlike before if your game didn't sell in Japan your company was doom. back in the days all games would come out in Japan first then elsewhere. That's not the case anymore. I believe it's less risky for game developers to make games today then before. Today if a game does not well in Japan at least can see the light on another region and still make money. Everyone should be thankful, before we had to c...
I would like to say that Sony it's copying microsoft, but that would be bull. Instead they are just stating the obvious and what bill games and Microsoft being saying since XBox 1.
I can't wait to see Sony's implementation of the future(Digital Download).
This is not my type of game. I didn't buy it for the 360. But, this proves that a Japanese company can make a game that does not sell well in Japan, and yet make lots of $$$. 10 years ago this would be bad for any video game publisher, but this is prove that Japan does not equal the video game market.
I agree... Why can we all get along!? Well, cause it's always fun to see Sony fanboys develop hemorrhoids if you don't agree that the cell inside of the PS3 is 20 years ahead of today's most powerful super processor.
No need to jump on me. I just agreed. Now tell me why should developers use procedural synthesis for the PS3 when they have all the space not to? The fact is that PS3 developers do not need to optimize their code or game assets when they have blu-ray. It's this a good thing for the gamer? Not really. We all know that this game looked nice for the 360 and yet it was not using 1/2 the capacity of the DVD. Now why would they say they will be taking full advantage of the blu-ray when the game for...
I agree. They have to, let's not forget about "procedural synthesis" which this game heavily used for most of the world objects. procedural synthesis it's uniqued to the 360 which mean that all these game assets will have to be added to the PS3 version. It wouldn't surprice me if this game is 3-4 times larger than the 360 version. Not because of any new content but simply because of the lack of procedural synthesis in the PS3. Well, this shouldn't be a problem for the PS3 since it h...
1 Bubble! ohh s*** things are worst than what I thought! I somewhat agree with, "Xthugs(XBox fans) now out number the PS3 fans on this site(world) by a large number". I wonder, can someone have 0 bubbles? sucks, I wish I can lend you one of my bubbles... mmm... nevermind we all know what you fanboys have to say.
you used you last comment bubble on this? Bottom line is that HD-DVD should not be what drive gamers to buy the 360, but the games. The sad part about is that while Microsoft it's so busy trying to show games, Sony it's busy trying to highlight a damn hdmi cable! You see, I noticed a similarity between your bubbles(2) and your relationship with Sony. you have 2 options. You buy their blu-ray player(super computer as they call it) or you can forget playing games. Good thing XBox fans have lots...
very good point but these fanboys are to blind to see it. Well, I don't blame them they probably never seing the video output port; some of them actually think you actually plug componets behind the 360. What stop Microsoft from making an hdmi cable for it? I also don't get it; everyone knows an hdmi cable is coming, since even game retailers even listed on their comming soon list.
yes we have, "The most popular formulation is of the doubling of the number of transistors on integrated circuits (a rough measure of computer processing power) every 18 months.". have you heard of the bubble law for Sony fanboys that would vote lame to any article that's indicates that the CELL it's not the only processor out there that kick a$$? TIP: The less bubbles you have the bigger the fanboy you are.
2 words. Not accurate. This is gamestop they have to put a date, so they would put anything. I would only believe it when anounced by Microsoft or bungie.
The only reason why M$ says, "No Comments" is so as it already happened, the competition(Sony) go wild saying, "We have this and that and the 360 does not" and then release the good news. PS3 Game ($59-$69), PS3 low-end sku ($499), PS3 hi-end sku used car($599), seing Sony talking crap and then looking stupid... pricess. There are some things that money can buy for everything else there is XBox 360.
I'm not to sure about this game yet. I will keep an eye on it, but.... well I don't know. I hope it's good.
Where are the Sony fans?... mmm.. I guess they are too busy batching everything that comes out of X06.
My TV only have 1 HDMI my Cable Box is using it. I rather if M$ comeout with an adapter instead than HDMI. I would like to have the option.
crazy but I agree, "How many people are going to buy this?"... Some people will, some people will not. I will get one at launch. but the fact is that I get to exsercise the right to choose. Something you don't have with your PS3. So, good point thank you for bringing it up. If I change my mind and I am to stick with DVDs I can tell M$ keep it!
Only the first day.
I don't think Sony will be going belly up. And I sure hope they don't, like Yves said, "It's good to have many players on the same battlefield...". They will lose a great piece of the pie. Even if they surpass the 360 on every aspect the damage is already done. The 360 & Nintendo have more developer support and everything goes down to games. It's too bad that Sony thought and even worst still think that they can take 100% market share with just brand recognition. Sony's biggest ...
