"In our dreams, Naughty Dog pulls a Bungie, manages to weasel its way out of an exclusivity deal, and work on a new multiplatform title."

This guy writes 'professionally' for IGN yet doesn't understand that Naughty Dog is a Sony OWNED studio and not just part of an exclusivity deal?

"So, if you'll allow us to get selfish for a second, we want to see what this studio [Guerrilla Games] could do on OUR preferred platform."

The Super, Ultra, Mega More Powerful Than Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, and The Incredible Hulk Put Together... box.

It's amazing how many articles crop up from a 'no comment' response. We all know they're working on it but can't comment yet, the end.

Hmmm...

It's probably just me but the lack of a second analog makes camera movement frustrating. It's the main reason I traded in my PSP. Also the PSP has no touch functionality so will this mean no implementation for 3DS and Vita users?

I'm not too fussed about graphics either but it would be nice to see what the Vita could do with it.

Question: will the PSP and 3DS' graphical limitations and single analog stick hold back the PS Vita version? Hopefully they will fully optimize the game for Vita, as this sounds pretty good.

I agree with NukaCola though, Ni No Kuni looks incredible!

I find it encouraging that three companies can have hardware on the market and all three do very well for themselves. If this were ten/fifteen years ago one of them would probably have been pushed out of the market.

Now the industry seems to be expanding 'sideways', so to say, with micro games proving popular on smartphones. However there's still a great divide between people who just play on a phone and people who game on PC/consoles.

As for wh...

Sounds pretty cool.

I don't remember Monster Rancher but I do remember those barcode battler toys. I think you should throw Invizimals into the mix and make it an augmented reality game too.

COD isn't my cup of tea to be honest but you can't deny the massive fanbase that it has.

I agree that LBP and Uncharted are killer apps themselves but talking from a purely sales standpoint they can't compete with COD.

The massive price drop kept the 3DS afloat until the games came along. The most important thing for any gamer buying a new bit of hardware is the games, probably followed by price.

My guess is that price will hold back Vita at first but when COD hits it and the price drops it should do very well for itself indeed.

Where I'm from we have 3 kinds of game store:

GAME, the big corporation store who hire clueless sales pushers.

Grainger games, who seem to hire mostly 'chav-like' COD/Fifa worshipers.

Gamestation, which is now owned by GAME. Staff are a little better than most, they hire the 'alt' crowd, who tend to be slightly more polite and better informed. However being part of GAME now means they are tainted by biased sales reps and...

And all it took was a massive in-depth blog detailing the many problems then the gaming media picking up on it.

You're just a customer number to these big companies until you threaten them with bad publicity.

At least they eventually got round to rectifying the issue, that's something, i guess.

The PS3 will not be left in the dark after the next gen comes, just look at the PS2 for evidence. They were still making games for it well after PS3 was released. MS don't have that track record but that's not to say the 360 won't be supported either.

Like venomcarnage89 said, if you don't feel ready to move on then nobody is forcing you, PS3 will be around for at least another few years.

I strongly believe 'next gen' consoles will be revealed at this years E3. If Sony are smart they'll have two E3 shows prepared, one with a PS4 reveal if MS announces the 'nextbox' and one without if not. MS always paying for that 'me first' slot at E3 might be a disadvantage this year.

I'm actually quite looking forward to the marketing frenzy that will ensue each reveal. If MS put down half a billion to advertise Kinect, how far would they ...

Er, where is the light in that pic shining from?

Actually I DO want a console experience on the go and, while unlike yourself I can't speak for everyone, I'm pretty sure there are loads more who want it too.

GO GAMING INDUSTRY GO!

Yet the British government STILL won't offer tax breaks to developers smh.

A positive PSV article? From The Sun no less!

If this continues it will make my blog redundant ;P
