that the media can't help but spew in their PS3 coverage.

there is NO SUCH THING as ONE killer app. just because all Microsoft has is Halo to float it's boat, doesn't mean that the other two are limited by such things. Nintendo has Mario, Zelda, and Metroid as their killer apps.

Sony has Metal Gear Solid 4, Little Big Planet, God of War, Gran Turismo, Twisted Metal, Wipeout, SOCOM as killer apps for their platforms.

in either case. i own two, count them,...

is this site a hentai site, or a new site?

personally, i love the fact that they are reporting on gaming news, but to the left and right is this bombardment of hentai. lol.

i go to the site for the news, then end up, um, "distracted," by the other stuff. lmao.

god i love the internet sometimes.

anyway, on topic, i don't think the 360 is finished in Japan, as there are a lot of non-Japanese in the populace that want 360's (my brothe...

Ayane, Mimoji, and Rachel in the 360 version?

you can play online co-op challenges in the 360 version?

the tweaked camera, and resolution are in the 360 version?

the truth is, no, it's not the same thing you played on the 360 last year. stop trying to downplay it.

like Eternal Sonata, Tales of Vesperia, and soon Star Ocean 4 (though who wants that is beyond me), Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 on the PS3 offers more than the 360 version.

i know it could have looked a LOT better if it wasn't being squeezed onto a 7.5gig DVD.

like i said before, i'm only mildly interested in this because Ninja Theory did such a great job with Heavenly Sword, and now they are experienced in presenting a larger scale, big budget game.

i just wish that larger scale, big budget game was Heavenly Sword 2 for the PS3.

Sony owns the IP, so who knows, maybe they'll put one of their teams on it (or maybe Sony Santa...

if the gaming media hadn't had such a huge, monumental STICK up their asses in 2007, and didn't RAPE Heavenly Sword just because it was a PS3 exclusive, we'd be getting a sequel to that instead of this game.

i'm mildly, and i do mean MILDLY intrigued, but i'd have loved to see what they could have done with the story of the Heavenly Sword on a 2 years refined Heavenly Sword engine.

now their engine has to be tweaked for DVD9, well, DVD7.5 (for the record, Heavenly Sw...

the PSP is a HAND HELD. it is meant to be played in situations where you want to game, but have no access to your console. ie, bus, train, plane, waiting rooms, etc.

while there are plenty of games that are long and epic and involving on the PSP, how many of them are actually suited to be played in the aforementioned scenarios?

a career mode, while nice, just isn't conducive to portable play.

with that said, the game is shipping on a UMD. UMDs have rough...

technically, Beta's aren't supposed to be used as marketing tools, but things are the way they are.

what's silly is that, i'm sure people buying Halo don't need a Halo beta to sell them Halo.

if it was a beta for something ELSE, like, say Crackdown 2, or Mass Effect 2, or some other game like Alan Wake, maybe it would make a bit more sense.

the way it works is, you piggyback a known franchise's demo/beta to a "weak" title or new IP, and get sal...

tied to Metroid, Mario, or Zelda?

anyone?

*crickets*

i'm 30 years old. i've been playing Mario, Metroid, and Zelda since they first appeared on the NES in the 80's.

i'd like something NEW.

no, it doesn't have to be blood, guts, tits, and ass, that retarded "argument" that a Nintendo fanboy throws out when people claim they want more core games from Nintendo is silly.

i want Nintendo to take the time to put...

1) Agreed. although Halo has been overhyped since the Xbox, so i don't think that it should be on the list, since most of the hype is just carry over from last gen. for the record, i really loved the first Halo, but simply lost interest after the 2nd came out.

2) Disagree. it's not Resistance 2's fault that the media feels the need to slap a "Halo Killer" moniker on EVERY Playstation FPS announced. personally, i think Resistance 2 is just as fast paced, twitchy, and arc...

for some reason, wordpress refused to apply the paragraphs i had when i copied the review over into the program to post it.

forgive the uber-long paragraphs! i've been trying to fix it all day to no avail!

oh yeah, and thanks for reading the review! Demon's Souls is truly an awesome game. i was pleasantly surprised by the effort from From Software.

i found a few reasons to pick up a 360 to compliment my PS3 (those would be Mass Effect, Fable 2, Crackdown, hopefully Mass Effect 2, Fable 3, Alan Wake, and Crackdown 2).

there's always a reason to own more than one console, but these days, it seems like people are more full of reasons why they SHOULDN'T, WOULDN'T, or COULDN'T.

i like good games, on any platform (even the Wii, despite how much i loathe it).

i may use my PS3 95% of the time, but i'm cer...

but after Demon's Souls, From Software has shown me that they can ACTUALLY make a good RPG when they have the proper backing (ie, Sony), so now i'm willing to pick up this game on the account that it could actually be good.

visually, it tickles my old 8 bit bones and harkens back to Zelda and Dragon Quest. the trailer was great, and i loved the choice of music. totally old school. it was like i was 6 years old again. lol.

i'm hoping that the game does well enough in ...

so please just remove the sticks from your asses and let the people enjoy themselves.

we all know how silly a 21/20 score it, but after 3 years of seeing magazines/sites unfairly slap 7/10 scores on the BEST of the PS3 games, it's nice to see the turnaround and praise finally being leveled at the system, even when laced with hyperbole.

SMART gamers understand that the only opinion that matters is their own, and reviews are simply another individuals thoughts on a pro...

i've known this all along, but it was driven home to me yesterday when i was talking with an old high school buddy from way back and he was telling me that he sold his PS3 because he didn't find the games interesting, and they were taking too long to come out.

even after throwing Uncharted, Ratchet, MGS, LBP, Resistance, Warhawk, etc, etc at him, he just shrugged them off as "decent," and reiterated that PS3 games take to long, and that he just can't like the PS3 this g...

was it so awesome that they couldn't help but be angry that they've now been spoiled for all games ever because of Uncharted 2 and all other games will pale in comparison from hence forth (or at least until God of War 3 comes out)?

the environments are GREAT looking. creature designs are equally great.

armor and weapons looks great too. the weakest looking part in this game are the character models (especially in character creation), but even they don't look that bad.

i'm playing the game in HD, and it looks great.

no, it's not going to give Uncharted 2 or God of War 3 a run for it's money, but what does?

not every game can be the best-looking games of all time, but De...

the Powers trailer, and the Welcome to Empire City trailer were great.

as for the list, i agree, those trailers are all great too.

the PS3 has come such a long way, against such an insane amount of negativity that i've never seen leveled against one console in all years as a gamer.

*sigh*

wake me up when Alan Wake, Mass Effect 2, Crackdown 2, and Fable 3 come out. THOSE are the 360 titles i'm the most excited about.

Microsoft is going to have to do better than this if they want to woo potential 360 owners. most of these games are for people who have already bought a 360 for the previous installments in the series.

but in Killzone: Liberation, Guerrilla released an additional free chapter for download that has Templar rescue Rico.

i'd love to see Liberation remade on the PSN in the Killzone 2 engine. same third person, isometric view, just in full HD awesomeness.

Liberation was the game that convinced me that Guerrilla Games had talent, and that Killzone 2 was going to surpass Killzone 1 in every way (for the record, i actually like Killzone 1, and think it was a very differen...
