itd have more replay value than God of War 3 (for example), purely because of the type of game it is and the audience who will be playing it.
saying it has no replay value is like saying Solitaire has no replay value because you beat it once. the fun isnt in just doing something once and then giving it up, its in doing things over and over yet not having the exact same outcome every time.
personally the game doesnt appeal to me, but i can see it being great f...
no chance in hell. the second they announced the ridiculous restrictions on downloads (ie. if your subscription lapses you cant use ANYTHING other than themes and avatars, even if it only lapses for 1 single day and then you re-subscribe) they lost any slim chance they had of getting my money.
for crying out loud............ GT5 is NOT native 1080p!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@GrandDragon: "Moving to 3D is like you moving to HD."
i wouldnt say that. id say moving to 3D from HD is like moving from a standard CRT to a flatscreen CRT. you dont need to do it, its not going to be that much greater, but it does have its moments.
@dredgewalker: microsoft didnt make, own, or have anything to do with HD-DVD, so they didnt 'fail' with HD-DVD.
they chose to put out a HD-DVD add-on, then HD-DVD as a PLATFORM failed so microsoft discontinued their support for it. Microsoft did not fail.
personally if i was running any of the big video game companies i would adopt the same approach with 3D. if you come out and make a big song and dance about it like Sony, if it fails to catch on you ...
blah blah blah - youre forgetting the fact that the PS3 only has a couple of native 1080p games too, and theyre all pretty simple games too.
3D in 720p is also virtually impossible on the PS3, because it require 60fps and 2 separate 720p images to be processed - and when most games struggle to maintain 30fps in 720p 2D mode, thats just not gonna happen. Killzone 3 in 3D is well below 720p, same with every other 3D title apart from Super Stardust, which is the equivalent of a ...
wow, some supersampled crazy-high LOD models that are not indicative of the in-game model. gee, who wouldve suspected sony would release screens like that? *rolls eyes*
1. Gears 2s online was broken, no doubt. with Title Update 6 released the other week though, its working brilliantly. im in australia and within 30 seconds of starting matchmaking i found a game of aussies, whereas before the update i could literally sit there on matchmaking for 10 minutes only to be thrown into a match with all americans and 2+ seconds of lag.
2. noone 'chainsaw rushes' because its ineffective and easy to stop. i played for about 3 hours last night a...
@metalhead: "MGS4 graphics engine is better than Risings because of the fact that every single little pixel in that game was in HD"
are you forgetting the fact that MGS4 wasnt actually even in 720p natively? lol it was 1024x768, which is 786432 pixels total, compared to 1280x720 (720p) which is 921600 pixels in total.
also, how can a pixel be in HD? a pixel is a pixel. HD is simply a measure of how many pixels there are.
people say...
@ThanatosDMC:
that is NOT an in-game shot of MGS4. its an in-cutscene shot. different LOD model.
one thing i hope they fix in Rising is MGS4s absolutely horrible variable framerate. 60fps indoors, 30fps outdoors, 20fps combat..........ugh, terrible. lock it at 30fps.
MGS4 was a TINY game. people have finished it in under 2 hours.
having 10+ hours of cutscenes to go with the 4 hour game doesnt make it a 14+ hour game. it makes it a 4 hour game with 10+ hours of cutscenes.
MGS4 was no graphical masterpiece when it came out, and it definitely hasnt stood the test of time. no bump mapping, poor texture work, last generation quality animations......the only people who say it was one of the best looking games were the PS3 fanbo...
umm do you not remember the Sega Master System and Mega Drive? they were direct competitors to the NES/SNES.
competition DOES make the consoles better. without the wii there would be no motion control in these consoles. without the PS3 there would have been no HD-DVD for the 360 (although that didnt turn out too well). without the 360 the PS3 still wouldnt have in-game XMB, universal friends lists, trophies, or half of the features it has today.
also, yes, i...
@bjornbear:
KZ2 was also reported to have had no input lag before release. we know that wasnt true.
until someone posts videos of the response time or we get our hands on it ourselves, since its the same engine as KZ2 its safe to assume it still has the 200ms input lag.
and no, the 0.2ms is NOT the controller, it is ON TOP of the input lag the controller has. if it was, how would you explain how Killzone 2 has noticeably more input lag than ...
no, 200ms is 200 milliseconds. 200 milliseconds is 0.2 of a second.
means it will take 0.2 of a second for the action to happen after you press the button, which is how long it takes in Killzone 2.
2 things that mean i wont get onlive, no matter how much i wish i could:
1. my internet connection is nowhere near good enough to get the 4-7mb/s needed to run games in HD.
2. my download limit would be gone in 2 days of playing onlive.
of course i should have prefaced this by saying 'i live in australia', as basically 90% of australians will have these same problems.
anyone that completed the other god of war games knows what Zeus was talking about. i suggest you go back and play them if you dont know what theyre talking about ;)
on this article, well i wouldnt call that 'hidden'. didnt everyone already know about this from the 'countdown' website?
why do people seem to assume that Sony are the only company that do anything related to 3D? how does the 3DS increase sonys income? the 360 is 3D compatible just like the PS3. remember that little game show that was just on called E3? remember how Crysis 2 was shown in 3D on the 360, not the PS3?
just because Microsoft dont devote basically their whole showing to 3D doesnt mean they cant do it. they - and developers - have specifically stated that the 360 is more than capabl...
obviously he didnt lol.
Killzone 3 in 3D will be SD and still only 30fps. anyone expecting 720p and 3D for any of the big graphical games this generation is kidding themselves. 3D and 1080p? dont even think about it, its not going to happen.
and no, GT5 is not 1080p in 2D, let alone in 3D.
honestly, who plays video games from any angle other than basically directly front on? i know im always dead centre of my tv when playing video games.
@PshychoNinja: "He just comes across as arogent and... well a douche"
when you created the biggest and (arguably) best new franchise this generation, ushered in the 'next gen' wave of games, brought PC-like multiplayer to consoles, and have 2 of the highest selling exclusives this generation, you can be forgiven for being a bit arrogant IMO.
all things considered, Dude Huge is pretty damn humble. He has never come across as a douche to me -...
