I don't have one, but I think the 3DS is pretty powerful anyways. The 3D is an add-on, but the graphics are still streets ahead of the DS.
I mean, the PS3 has a 3D option if you have a 3DTV.
I don't, does that mean my PS3 is pointless? I don't think so.
That was my first thought when I saw the named games.
April Fool's? Maybe...
If they included only one Pro Skater game and took out one of the three, it would outsell every single Tony Hawk game released since the Pro Skater series combined.
That's the way it's spelt over in England.
You know, where they invented the English language? :P
When will we realise that the true worth of graphics is only revealed in movement anyway?
With a screenshot, we often can't even tell whether it's a cut scene, or how fluid animations are, etc.
I'd expect this to look good though, it's xbox's flagship series in terms of graphics.
One last hurrah before focusing on the next generation?
Not like Nintendo...
I'll wait a few weeks, see how widespread this really is.
Are we talking a RROD from early xbox days (shudder) or are we talking a small number?
And this only causes a reset of the system? (Or at least that's how I read it- feel free to correct me.)
Shouldn't be called a screen of death then- that's reserved for when the system in FUBAR, and will not be convinced to return to working condition no matter how much voodoo magic...
If Epic don't make the debut of the next Unreal Engine with a new Unreal Tournament, I will be very disappointed.
UT3 is still my favourite shooter on PS3, and UT2004 my favourite on my crappy laptop.
So more Unreal Tournament please!
I don't like it, but it isn't killing gaming, which, to me, looks stronger than ever.
DS, Wii, 360, PS3, PSP, PC, AppStore...
7 strong platforms for games, with 5 of those dedicated almost completely to gaming.
Has there been a time with more choice for gamers?
Don't look dead or dying to me.
Anybody tech minded able to explain this to me?
Or is this just Sky and XBox having a fight and making up? :P
C'mon though, a virus on Microsoft's site would be well known. And potentially crippling for a lot of people and business- what about the automatic updates that get downloaded to windows? Scary thought.
This might get me back to COD online...
Normally when I play on the console, I play a story-oriented game, but on the PSP, it's mainly a race here, resistance online here... You know, the short, fun stuff, like a round or two of COD. :)
Best opinion piece I've read in a long time...
I have to agree with the author.
Now a beta just seems to equal a demo.
Definitely, especially if it has split-screen co-op.
As good as online play is, nothing ever beats playing alongside somebody in the same room.
What?
Warhawk, Killzone, Resistance, MAG, and SOCOM series aren't enough for Sony to manage?
Not to mention the multiplats such as Unreal Tournament, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Medal of Honor, Homefront, etc.
Please, no more FPS's for a while.
Give me something new, something innovative. I already have too much choice in regards to shooters.
E3 isn't necessary because every bit of news can be found very quickly online nowadays. Twitter is responsible for more gaming news than E3.
But... That's like saying we can't have Halloween because we can get sweets everyday.
Not necessary, but very much appreciated by it's target audience.
I love E3, especially the hype. Who knows what'll happen? There's always going to be at least one pleasant surprise, so sit back and enjoy!
The USS Ishimura, and the city from Mirror's Edge should be included as well.
Great article though, had to just smile and agree at some of those choices.
I would have thought that this WAS aimed at gamers.
Sure, some mass market appeal would be nice, but it's not like the gaming market is a small number- the likes of PS3 and 360 sold ridiculously well, even though the Wii sold more.
Insomniac deserve to have the chance to self-publish.
They've been producing top quality games for so long, but I'm sure Sony will come up with a reason to keep them, in the same way that Epic say Microsoft do with them.
Spyro: The Facebook Stalker
Yes.
I remember when I was gay, but then I got hacked.
1) There's nothing wrong about being homosexual.
2) Where did you make the intuitive link between PS3 hackers and other people's sexual tendencies?
Fair point, but... 3D is far from the only thing in the 3DS. Look at games like Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, even Pro Evolution Soccer or Madden. Those graphics are great in 2D or 3D. They couldn't build a console around 3D anyway, simply because there is a large percentage of people who simply cannot view 3D.
It's only called that to give it a name.
What exactly does the '360' have to do with Xbox 360?
Nintendo improved the DS. It is now the most p...
