@1.15 - Also a few other differences. Ability to use more than one controller in conjunction without having to link them together. Sub-millimetre accuracy, I doubt even the Wii with Wii Motion+ can achieve this. Also, this isn't to do with the motion controller itself, but the console allows for better graphics. Which means KZ2/Uncharted 2 graphics in a motion control game (hopefully).
If sony do 2 models one with wifi for 300 & one without for 250 that would be insane
The PS3 is very strange, it's probably the only console where the people who bought it at launch got rewarded with the best features. Think about the rest of the PS3s they have less features, and cost cheaper.
Also I don't think they'll get rid of WiFi from PS3 ever. PSN has got lots of potential and they want to promote services like Home. One thing I can see Sony getting rid of is the touch pad on the front to eject/power off the PS3. They could replace them with standard butto...

The business model for console games in this generation is not a good one. Games are very expensive to develop but most make a loss, it is only the occasional hits that keep the industry going.
The reason the games cost so much to make is that the consoles are far more content hungry than previous generations of machines yet are not powerful enough to use the large swathes of middleware necessary to reduce production costs.
And the market h...
I better win deep. And this is extremely hard to tell which one is real and which one is game. But I think I figured them all out.
OMG it's Bruce "the retard 50 year old Xbox fanboy" Everiss. He's not getting any hits on his own domain because it is obvious he is an xbox fanboy, so he's moved to Seeking Alpha.
LMAO. Not worth reading, Bruce is a complete retard, trust me if you read this story you will regret it for the rest of your life, and your IQ will drop 100 points.
inFAMOUS is the better game, and I've played both. Prototype is stupid fun, inFAMOUS is hardcore gaming and is my favourite sandbox title this gen.
If fanboys can't see that, tough, they can wallow in their stupidity forever.
Good review score, but it's worrying that it didn't get over 9 when it is meant to be one of the best/few hardcore games for the Wii. Will still be getting this, hopefully it is as good as they say.
Yeah its ridiculous most of the 360 games barely sold 500,000 units worldwide. This is at least a huge reason to make jrpgs multiplat rather than 360 exclusive.
I think Resident Evil may do well, but Dead Space, I dunno. Resi name is more known, but then again let's see what the Conduit does first.
I approved this article, but I'm pretty sure the guy means via remote play, not downloading directly to the phone. But if the games do download to the phone, it would be great.
It's a requirement for Sony when they get a game later than Xbox 360 or another console. Which is good for both Sony and the dev, because it ensures that more people will want to buy the game.
LittleBigGalaxy seems like a natural evolution for the name, BUT Super Mario Galaxy sounds too similar, which is why Sony probably wouldn't want to use that name.
I heard it was one of the best JRPGs available this gen. Main reason I am looking forward to it because the only RPG I have truly been satisfied with this gen is Lost Odyssey. Everything else is very boring.
I think it will be coming, the game has already been localised for US in the 360 version, so most of the work is done. Hopefully it is not a very long wait because of that,
LOL nice.
Lol same here, I was like I never heard of this game before, why haven't I. And then I realised why, not to say iPhone games suck (they're awesome), just that they're not as highly anticipated as full-fledged titles are.
Well MGS: Raiden will have Kojima involvement now, but the difference with Kojima is that he is responsible for the story of the game. Without him, the game would suck (because he has been involved in the entire story of MGS). The way MGS4 looks on the other hand is a testament to his team.
@1.3 - yeah i agree in most cases a single person isnt responsible for a great game, it depends on the entire team
I'm pretty sure these guys developed on PS3 first because they are using Sony's free PS3 Phyre Engine to develop the game on.
