This is another rant from a disgruntle console gamer.
Services like Steam take away from his rant.
We heard all this before as you said wallis and must of it is false.
Typical flame article
Why do you even exist?
darkride we know you HATE the Xbox360, but dude...stop with the spin articles man. You don't work for Sony so relax...
And how again is it in a different category than the other two systems? It's a console right? Plays games right? So they are the same category and hate the Wii all you want, it took massive amounts of market share from Sony...If it were NOT in the same category or count as a console as you say...then the market-share for the Wii would be LESS.
Spin it all you want. The Wii outsold the other two systems this generation.
Unfortunately for Japanese game companies, Western game development is leading the industry right now compared to the times in the late 1980's up until the early 2000's when Japanese influence in game design and creation lead the market. If Western game houses made a game, they looked at their Japanese counterpart for inspiration. Now the roles have been reversed...
You cannot compare 1st shooter games to Racing games as racing games have static backgrounds and the level of physics and calculations and size of maps, areas and interaction with the environment is not as in depth as First person games. Do not compare the two genres as they are different and games like GT 5 and the likes have zero interaction with the environment and set camera angles...
They can buy the first one as they all look and play the same lol
It's going to be a tough holiday season for Sony. WiiU and Halo 4 will create the most buzz for these consoles this holiday season
You have the PS3 Fans stating power...
Xbox360 fans stating games matter yada yada yada...
The roles were reversed during the PS2 and Xbox era... And this can happen again whenthe new consoles launch .
We have to wait until the Christmas season starts before judgments are passed...however this time around Sony has a lot more competition for its handheld as well as Nintendo with the 3DS with the onslaught of Smartphones and Tablets coming out at the same time to complete for consumer dollars.
Times have changed as well as consumer demographic spending.
What you just posted is factually correct and the reason why you got so many disagrees.
People cannot handle the truth on N4G.COM when it comes to this issue.
The hard truth is SALES DO MATTER to the industry for game support.
If the device is stellar and lacks the sales, game developers will not create games for it as a system selling more units overall. That's just business.
It's the way the console industry has been since 1979.
Sales drives s...
Boo for the obvious reasons LOL
@jd666
I agree with you that they could make it 60fps for this game on these consoles...
They would just have to take out most of the animations, lower the textures, reduce map sizes, draw distance and have almost non existent HDR in most scenes.
That way it will run 60fps.
Take a look at ALL console games that run 60fps...
The graphics and physics are at a minimal or the game is static like a racing game with static backgrounds.
These ...
Good comparison.
The PS3 and Xbox360 versions are practically the same.
Really? The console versions look almost the same.
The power difference between these consoles are not that great to have HUGE differences between the two like a Wii game despite some rantings of many on this site.
If you want a version that is very different in looks and play, buy the PC version because the console versions of multi-platform games are practically identical unless they screw it up
I bet you were not stating this when he was in good graces with Sony making those funny commercials for them...
He was one of Sony's better marketing "stunts"
Marketing and advertising was never Sony's strong suit and losing this will hurt...
When the PS3 launched and it sold out initially, were people on this site claiming it was because of "profiteering"?
You know the answer to that ;-)
Surprise surprise...People actually LIKE Nintendo systems...N4G.COM does not make up the rest of the planet of gaming,...
Tomb Raider started it all...Uncharted was an evolution of Tomb Raider. TR is definitely taking cues from Uncharted now because of its success, however that's how this industry works.
But to say TR copied Uncharted? Only on N4G.COM
What is always interesting about these debates comes NEXT generation. Why? Because the same people here ranting about how all PS3 games look better than Xbox360 games and GRAPHICS MATTER, MIGHT be eating tons of cow come next generation if the Xbo720 or whatever it might be called, ends up being more powerful. At that point you will see those same people posting how GRAPHICS do not matter and its all about game play...
We seen this happen before. It was with HYPOCRITICAL Xbox...
