People actually sill care about this game? You guys are fighting about whether its a clone or not and the studio that made this game had a Wii and Brawl running in the background. Sony has laid off employees at this studio, because the game failed to meet whatever goals Sony wanted for it! To be honest they never had a chance to make as successful of a brawler like Smash Bros.. Because none of their character IP's have been around long enough to establish that kind of dedicated fanbase......
Nintendo had currently made one of the CPU's dual cores dedicated to OS functions and it is believed that the Picca GPU is downclocked from 200mhz to134mhz by firmware as well. So if the latest firmware did indeed redirect some extra power from somewhere, it is much welcomed. I noticed when playing FE Awakening that the battery does drain much faster on this game than any other in the past and this is clearly one of the better looking 3ds titles to date. Makes me wonder if this update is ...
Probably has something to do with the fact that most Sony fanboys are constantly in every Nintendo and Microsoft related articles singing from the rooftop of how great the PS4 will be... It's not that there is no General interest in someone commenting in a Sony related article. It's that fans tend to sensationalize the truth into something that its not! I myself am very interested in the PS4, but I also don't think that it's the "second coming" like most of the fanta...
You are right, the guy is basically using numbers and past console holiday stats to make his point... Not to mention as he stated, the PS3 had the benefit of riding high off the PS2 dominance train. But the difference is that PS2 was really showing its age and PS3 looks like it might have another 1-2yrs in it, before its fanbase decides to upgrade to something new. Of course early adopters will get the consoles and the hysteria amongst them will be to epic proportions. But there's just n...
So Nintendo doesn't have the creativity to think outside the box... Lol
What about the PS4 is thinking outside the box? What games that were shown on PS4 = thinking outside of the box? Dude that is purely a psychotic statement at best!
The simple fact is that these people need to stop trying to market and sell the PS4 as something its not! Which is a High-end gaming PC, or a console with Supercharged PC components... It has none of those things so that's why they're getting flack for these kind of crazy off the wall statements!
Yes Sony does support their hardware with 1st party games, but Sony's games don't sell on their hardware like Nintendo's does on theirs! If you guys don't think this is a problem then you are sorely mistaken. If its true that Killzone SF is costing Sony $80 million to make and say this game goes on to only sell 2million copies. They will barely break even and this is taking a consideration that they make a $45 profit on those 2mil sold, which they probably won't. Not to me...
It is a shame, but if the yearly shooters and prople that buy them are an indication of anything. The masses like stagnated gameplay, that's why CoD sells as much as it does... A great game like Ni NoKuni can't hit 1mil games sold but CoD BLOPS2 sells almost 10 million with an install base of over 75 million consoles. Sad tired gamers!
Everyone's favorite gimmick word I see... You guys are so hell bent on stagnation its ridiculous! Anything that offers the slightest change in gaming is a gimmick, (presumed to be a bad thing by the context that you are using it in.) Even though you are given the option of not using that play method and just gaming on a regular ass controller. So if you don't want to try something new then that's you, but many other people in the gaming community like trying different and new ways...
People are taking his comment way to literal really! If you were gaming back in the day, FF7 being on the PS1 was the game that solidified its reason for being in Japan. Sales aside, I've seen many people after that Nintendo Direct say that X2 is what makes them want a WiiU. So he's stating from games that make a console relevant in the marketplace, this could be the WiiU's equivalent to a FF7. Not to mention that Monolith has openly stated that they want to become Nintendo's ...
@KrisButtar: I stated that I hope you aren't racists because you decided to point out things that Iwata has stated and clearly the article was about Miyamoto and its not like he always speaks with the press on these issues. He even goes on to say that it is fundamentally Nintendo's responsibility to prove the WiiU's value and importance in the marketplace.(so its not like he's asking for a hand out) Miyamoto even states that Nintendo's primary goal right now is to get the ...
You guys wouldn't even be talking about him stepping down if he wasn't the one that suggested it in the first place. When speaking to investors, he mentioned a certain profit margin that he sought to get Nintendo to(might have been 500 million dollars by the next fiscal cycle) or he would be willing to step down! Ever since that came out, everyone has been bringing up comments about how he needs to be fired. Name one other CEO that you know of that is this chivalrous and willing to of...
Although I'm hoping that you aren't racist and think that all Asians look alike! But this was Miyamoto talking to the press and not Iwata. So I have no clue why you felt the need to post that unless it was related to something that Miyamoto had previously said, which it wasn't...
I totally agree with what you said and its not like you are giving Nintendo a free pass, so I'm not sure why all of the disagrees! But once again I think that they as a company just lost sight of how much effort was needed in the development times for HD games alone, just as 3d on the 3ds posed a challenge in the early days of that system. But people forget one major component though, that Nintendo is the only gaming company that is 100% invested in gaming and pushing gameplay ideas forwa...
Its so hard for me to take him serious a legit wrestler, when he started out on the Real World...
Everybody wants to be Nostradamus these days and predict things! Guess what people, I'm sure the Mayans thought that they were right as well and where did that get them?
Very well said my friend and this is also why we will probably see some of the best looking PS4 games in year 2 of the systems life. If the system has no hang UPS to get to that theoretical 1.84Tflops of power, then it won't take nearly as long as the PS3 to see some of the best graphic abilities of the system.
But for arguments sake even ND came out and stated themselves that they maxed out the PS3's abilities with Uncharted 2 and that game came out in 2009. Which is saying a lot, seeing as how this is the one game that everything seems to be measured against on the console scene. So my guess is that whatever ND's 2nd generation PS4 game will probably be, that game will be the one to completely max out what the system is capable of and show it...
The 8gb of RAM is great, but is that all we are going to hear about in the 8th generation is RAM? People don't seem to get it that even though the system utilizes a unified memory approach, a game is never going to have access to all 8gb of RAM. Depending on how much multimedia functions Sony builds into this box, will determine how much RAM will be allocated by the OS. From what I saw from the unveiling of the PS4, the console is going to always be preloaded with software to enable that ...
Lol! Did you actually just post Facebook numbers here? I said dedicated fanbase. Which if you look at the majority of Sony's 1st party games, they don't sell better than the 3rd party offerings on their own system... Its not about anyone being a blind fanboy, because that I am not! But I'm also not some delusional "Sony does everything right fan", that sees the company as the be all end all of gaming. No I have never played PSASBR, but I don't want to either. If I wa...
