I really don't understand why anyone would buy a console based off the launch titles?! A console will be with you for years (presumably) not just the launch window.

Surely looking at exclusives launched throughout the whole life-cycle of current gen is a better guide for which camp makes the games that appeal to you most.

That was a terrible article. All Mr Hindman seemed intend on presenting was his own self-satisfaction at applying sarcasm, and mocking the guide. Pity has wasn't focused on informing anyone about the game. Wasted opportunity.

I really don't understand why MS is even bothering in Japan. I'm being serious. It is nothing to so with the company or hardware.

Unless they are suddenly going to investing in multiple development teams making great Japanese market specific games, they will make no inroads. In fact those development teams needed to start about working 2-3 years ago.

Without loads of Japanese style games, the only people in Japan buying XBox Ones will be US expacts. I...

That and monster hunter are fantastic news for the Vita!

Hmm, the footage didn't impress me. Visuals were not on a par with some of the other Next Gen games, and game play was nothing that we haven't seem a hundred times. This has lowered on my list.

You all know that companies pay big money to get in catalogs?! Nothing to do with Toys Are Us selecting content. It is advertising space for sale. MS obviously chose to be listed, which is smart marketing.

It certainly has me interested.

Even if it is a port of a 2007 game, it is hard to over-estimate how important this is for Vita, especially in Japan. Others MH will follow.

First time that I have heard facial recognition confirmed!

Is it worth pointing out the GT5 ran at native 1080p on the PS3 back int 2010. Easier for a car game.

4548d ago 2 agree6 disagreeView comment

Ouch. That seriously hurts MS!

Not because there is anything wrong with 900p, its a high res, but because they felt like they needed to lie about it 2 days ago. lies and spin.

Just one more nail in the lack of trust coffin.

The Vita's awesome. Mine gets used daily.

I wonder if they meant "Beta tested FOR the future". That would almost make sense. Unfortunately, that is certainly not what it says.

Nope, they split into two teams when the did TLOU, with the second team continuing next Uncharted.

That was awesome!

I actually think that was an intelligent response from Microsoft. There is no point arguing "its not true" again, it wouldn't convince anyone who already believes it. Plus, it is highly unlikely that MS has got their hands on a PS4 to actually know if it is true or not. Only 3rd party devs with both development kits are in that position and unfortunately for MS they are the ones saying it (not Sony).

Clearly this matters and gamers do care, otherwise there woul...

The only people talking down the difference is MS. The only people talking up the difference is not Sony, but developers. To me that says a lot. It is also not just one article/source but many. They can't all be lies/made-up.

weird. I played the disc version as well. Worked perfectly without issue. Not sure what you are referring to.
