1st of all it was not a surprise going by Crapcoms history of milking anything Street Fighter related. 2ndly, £35 for a port on a hand held is just silly and considering the lack of content compared to Mortal Kombat, Soul Calibur or Tekken, I wouldnt touch this game unless it were £20 or less.
Articles like these provide proof that people do get paid to write excrement and publecise their rear end where they excrete from in the name of journalism.
The journo could have saved a lot of time by just taking on everything Sony related and took a picture with a comment saying, "this is my opinion of Sony."
The key to Vita is a 3 tier system; Full on Vita Games, psn/ ps1 games, minis.
Tier 1 would be games that are exclusive and have a bigger budget like Uncharted, which is friggin awesome and makes giod use of most if not all Vita functions.
Tier 2 would be games like Escape Plan which have a smaller budget but are brilliant and again make good use of the Vita.
Tier 3 would be the minis which are IOS/Android type games. Cheap n cheerful. Tiny b...
NT didn't do well due to their attitude and overhyping of their own game by mocking other games.
Also, they didnt really offer anything new or groundbreaking unlike thatgamecompany which has pretty much made something new and innovative with every game.
Insomniac should also do well as they make quality games but I think need major marketing to make more people aware of their products.
I suppose the main question is, if its nt a tps, fps ...
At the end of the day, its not enturely up to Sony since they didn't publish or own all the games. A decision like this probably must me unanimous amongst other devs and publishers.
On the other hand, the amount of PS1 games n PS Mini games u can transfer is plenty as well with 2 4 1 games like Motorstorm RC (which only cost £4.70).
I seen a lot of ppl complain about BC on the PS3 n it was mostly hot air since hardly any1 made use of it.
Not just the screen, the free AR games are pretty cool, Near is shockingly amazing, the multitasking is awesome, the back touch panel is brilliant and the amount of free content via ps+ is huge!
The odd thing is, the OS isnt even that different from IOS. The PS button is the equivilant of the IOS square button but works better as it always gets it right. On IOS i often press it twice to bring up other apps but i either press it too slow or too fast n it comes out of the progr...
Yup, the journo is a bit of a dimwit. The friggin OS is brilliant.
To give an indication of how good it is, I have owned pretty much every console since the commodore64, I have owned several handhelds from the gameboy n game gear right down to the atari lynx, ds lite and psp and I own an android fone, iphone 4s and ipad2 and sony tablet.
I have been excited about all of them and been happy with all, but the Vita is the only one that has blown me away.
...
Lovefilm, iplayer and vidzone would also be welvcome editions!
I think they are trying out the Gotham City Imposters price plan. That and the DCUO going f2p may have proven to be successful.
Also, if this is successful, this may lead to extra sales for the game and boost the KZ fanbase if they are to release a KZ4.
same here. i am giddy like a kid in a candy store. my wife is jealous as to how excited i am over the damn thing compared to my inlaws visiting tomorrow (duh!!!).
I may be very wrong with what I say next, but I think the Vita will do very well compared to the PSP. I remember when the PSP launched and as great as it looked and as much the sales reps promoted it at the shops in the UK, I never seen much interest in it as it was a small ps2. I didnt have a need for it as the ps2...
Nor did I.
For a £45 game, there is a lot missing. The graphics for starters are pretty weak.
I understand it has huge bosses (planet size even), but the enviroment is so bland and empty. The textures are flat and the enemies are generic unless it is a boss.
I was hoping the game would play more like Devil May Cry, God Hand or Bayonetta but it plays nothing like it. As the developers said in an interview, the enemies do not have a healt...
These reviews are making me itch. Got mine preordered for the 22nd but I want it nw! Hope they do a midnight release in the local Gamestation or call me to pick it up 2moro!
I think u have knowledgable gamers mixed up with knowledgable awards enthusiasts.
Between me and my brother, we own over 1500 dvd and BRs and we have subscriptions to Lovefilm and Netflix. We watch films from all over the world, but we ciuldnt careless about the Oscars or Baftas or Emmies.
Someone as highly knowledgable as you should know the difference in enjoying video games by playing them and enjoying awards. To give a clue, one of them only requires you ...
All depends on if u have the money, when ure upgrade is due and hw badly ure phone needs replacing.
Diiference is, ure phone will b out of date with a newer model in about 6months and probably knackered within 2. The Vita hopefully will last longer and only see slight changes in terms of price, size n battery life.
I had the same dilemma as u but luckily the wife gave me her iphone 4 (only 3 months old as apple replaced it for her) since she had an upgrade d...
Difference, Metal Gear Rising is not a Solid Snake story, nor is it a stealth game, but openly says it is a hack n slash action game with Raidens story.
This means the original MGS is safe from being screwed as well as the iconic characters and story.
Also, Platinum games have proven they are friggin awesome and their combat mechanics for hack n slash I would say are probably the best (what would you expect the father of Devil May Cry). NT on the other hand h...
Great news, another DMC hater wants tameem will cry to succeed!
I have sh-t listed Crapcom for their repeated failure to listen to fans and by milking customers to no end.
Just when u think it cant get worse they now get dmc3 dude to assure us all is good. Well Crapcom, had u listened to ure fans in the 1st place, u wud not be in the position u r rite nw, hoping to turn ppl around to liking Sh-tFace may cry.
What u dnt realise is, all u r do...
Pre ordered mine today for the 22nd. Do u know if the uk get the 6 AR cards aswell?
Although i dislike Activision, all things COD and agree with what you said above, i believe the biggest problem are the consumers who buy COD yearly and support Activision in not innovating, regurgitating and milking.
At the end of the day, if the consumer wants to be milked and be given a copy n paste product, Activision would be stupid not to give them want they want.
1st DMC got raped and now Ninga Gaiden :(
Sweet and i got a few questions if you dint mind:
1) always heard a lot but never played a monster hunter game. What kinda genre is it? Is it rpg? Turn based or action? Is it more like a mini mmo? Is it hack n slash?
2) was it in the japan store or us/ eu store?
3) how much is it
