Guys, remember that GTA really has been viewed in the past as a PS branded game more so than say an Xbox game.
What's interesting then is breaking down the people who can actually take advantage of DLC on the 360 vs every PS3 having the space to. I wonder how many people bought an Arcade as the cheapest way to play GTA, and now don't have the storage space to even download it?...
I call a MP battle mode game in the R&C world for PSN. Probably from the NC studio. You heard it here first. ;)
What ever they do, they are kings of network code. They really need to use that strength in their next game. It's amazing that they went from no online in R&C for their last project to probably the best network code on a console.
People are just hating that Killzone 2 is doing all of this, and doing it properly. In Killzone 2, the bullet holes are real time with and not just a faked 2d texture. Gears 2 is faked. Killzone 2 has up to around 100 lighting sources that light up a scene at once in real time. Gears 2 has maybe 4-5 that are fake at a time. Killzone 2 has particle effects (debris in the air) that cast shadows, and catches light appropriately. Gears 2 does none of this. Killzone 2's debris actually bounces off...
If selling more than the 360 up to this point compared to where the 360 was at this time is a failure..... That is so retarded.
Let's do this then. Let's compare the PSP that released 1.5 years or so before the 360.... Failure because the 360 isn't even close to 50 million units sold.... LOL
"Yeah, but the PSP is cheaper, and will sell more!"
Yeah, kinda like the 360 compared to the PS3 right now.
There are so many hilarious &qu...
I don't care if Sony has the 360 beat in 2009. All I know is there are a LOAD of games that I'm into right now coming in 2009 on top of Killzone 2 for the PS3, and still a load that are not yet announced. People also act like MS will announce titles in the next months, and Sony has announced all the releases for 2009. Nope. There are still a lot of games that have yet to be announced including the next Insomniac project, Team ICO, Incognito, Eat Sleep Play, the NCsoft PS3 exclusives.... The P...
I LOVE the idea of exploring and an open world like this, but the racing and physics seem to have seriously downgraded since they first showed this title. Not to mention everything looks very choppy now. :(
I give the overall nod to Live for now, but it PSN is just way more open and has way more potential.
-No limits on game sizes
-Everyone has a HD, doesn't have the 128mb limit that MS seems to have with just offering arcade with that much memory (in other words, they can't get much bigger than NXE by having such a small amount of space)
-Browser allows visiting of clan sites, sites like this, while Live users still need to jump back and forth.
-Nice value softw...
Are you getting this through your thick skull SE? Having MS pay for these exclusives and sell squat is not worth it considering fewer gamers get to play your games. And yet SE said they felt "bullish" about the 360 in Japan for 2009? Idiots.
Xbox 360 owners: See how good Killzone 2 really looks and grabs the first good looking game they can find and says it looks better. LOL. Come on guys. The particle effects, character models, animations, lighting aren't even in the same league. Besides some overly shiny shaders this time around and some vegetation, this game looks like Lost Planet 1. I like how the game looks. It looks great. But it's not touching KZ2 for visuals. It's like it's maybe doing 1 or 2 things out of 10 that make KZ...
Uncharted 2 is already going beyond it in other areas. Heavy Rain is already passing it in other areas. It's not like Sony is going to stay still from here on in. LOL
What a pathetic joke of an article. How pathetic of a person makes something like this up? Honestly, if the person who made this up is reading this, please get a life.
If the first one had done great, then it would be a bigger deal. But it looks really good but not great. I'm sure PS3 owners would enjoy this, but I'll take the big beasts in the next SotC over this any day. ;)
Very VERY misleading article. He said that they have roughly the same CPU power. The dev is just talking CPU. The PS3 has the same CPU hardware, but ALSO has SPUs as well. Read the article guys. This idiot just took one snippet when he was talking about CPUs and labeled it as the Cell. Nice... It also doesn't take into account the vast speed advantage between the SPUs with a wayyyyy faster ram.
Also keep in mind that this guy can't smear his contract with MS by saying one is bet...
Yes it can and will. It'll actually have just 6-7 years by itself, and then overlap 3-4 years with the PS4. What Sony has said is that people will still be getting enjoyment and games for the PS3 when the PS4 comes out. Not really a stretch at all looking at it that way.
It looks like a good game, but not much better than White Knight IMO. And I'm sick and tired of battles that happen on a flat slab of land the size of a football field. I mean you're walking on this narrow staircase that's 5 feet wide, you run into an enemy there, and the battle takes place on this huge field. This was okay 5-10 years ago, but no longer.
The problem is MS is gunning after the Wii, and will be focusing a LOT more on games like 1 vs 100 and so on.... Games that are cheaper to make and more casual. Trust me on this. 2009 and 2010 is going to be showing a lot more casual from MGS, and they will be relying on 3rd parties to be doing the more hardcore stuff.
No actually guys, many of them left the MGS loop after the Ensemble closure, including the main guy at Ensemble. He blogged about it, and many people left and were shocked. 2 new independent studios have been formed by former Ensemble devs. There might be a few that MGS have added to other teams, but it sounds like a majority have left. It's not like they want to stick around and hope MS doesn't cut them off again like this. None of them are happy with MS right now. Lets hope Rare doesn't get...
Yeah, and the thing is, they both cost the same price... Oh wait... Yeah, but the PS3 had a lot of great releases for January!.... Oh, wait.... ;)
The 360 at up to half the price with that many games in the top 10 has GOT to sell more than 100k than the PS3. They should have at least doubled the PS3. MS should feel lucky that the PS3 hasn't had the PC just yet. It's pretty obvious what the outcome would have been, even though the 360 would STILL be $100 cheaper with the Arcade.
If MS only has this kind of lead for the next 3-4-5 months, I can see Sony holding out a bit more for a PC. I thought the KZ2 launch would be the time, but I honestly think that they will wait longer if they can keep sales around this mark, being just 100k or so less than the 360.
VGChartz vs Take Two? LOL! Guesses vs the best source in the world from the actual company. Nice!
