"Keep in mind that neither F.E.A.R. nor Killzone 2 have as dynamic of A.I. or as many types of scenarios as The Last Of Us. It's really not even a debate."
Hahahahaha thanks for the laugh. Like kevnb said, fear still has the best AI. It is far more dynamic than what we saw in the demo of TLOU. Have you even played fear? From your comment I'd have to say you haven't.
WONDERBOOK IS SO CORE MAN!
Remember that time Nintendo released the wii with a big internal HDD? No? Oh right, it doesnt have a big HDD yet its sold almost 100 million consoles, ~30 million more than the other consoles that include big HDDs.
When will you kiddos learn that it's not just "biggest specs wins"?
im making a big deal bout it because it looks like a big deal for me.
i own a win phone 7, iphone 3GS and an ipad. being able to use my ipad to send game/chat invites, view achievements, and select videos from my NAS to play on the 360 sounds awesome, and something that i would literally use every single time i turn on my 360. then theres the awesome uses for it in games like what we saw for madden - create your own plays! - and other potential things like using it for invent...
i dont have a "cable box", but as soon as Foxtel on 360 gets the NRL matches live next year, ill be all over it like white on rice (foxtel is basically australias only cable tv service). i already have cable installed from the previous owners of my house, but why pay $60+ a month for cable when i can get the same thing for $20 a month through my xbox? means i dont have to have another piece of hardware, and i can just go from playing a game to watching tv, while still being availabl...
if showing 20 minutes of probably the worst looking game in history, wonderbook, is being "all about the gamers", but showing Halo 4/Gears of War Judgement/Forza Horizon is "losing the plot" then boy oh boy do i not want to know what the plot is.
its PR speak, and it should be taken as such - ignore it.
Beyond was a CGI trailer so it doesn't even remotely count. No in-game footage whatsoever.
does it really matter if its 720p or 1080p? on 99% of peoples tvs you cant even tell the difference between 720p and 1080p at the regular viewing distance.
this isnt opinion, its scientific fact - our eyes cant distinguish the difference. the average HD tv this generation would be in the 32"-40" range. for a 40" tv, to even notice a difference between 720p and 1080p you need to sit about 5 feet from the tv. thats not even 2m away. i dont know a single person wh...
microsoft "won" e3 for me. ill break down why, and what i took from each conference:
Microsoft:
- Halo 4 first gameplay, looked incredible and a big step up and change of direction for the series.
- Gears of War Judgement trailer, not in game so not really fussed.
- excellent Kinect integration with CORE CORE CORE CORE CORE games like Madden and Fifa.
- Splinter Cell reveal, wasnt even rumoured. not exclusive, but an awesome surprise ...
"The 360 (Still look at it as a great game system)disappoint me this gen cause the carbon Wii copy called Kinect!!!"
Ummm I think you have your motion controls mixed up mate lol. Move is the carbon copy of the wii, not kinect.
At this stage, I think they need to make it for the ps4 instead of the ps3. SOTC and Ico are 2 of the best games of all time, so this is one game I want them to make sure is exactly how they envisioned it. They're obvious...
@CommonSense: " even shane satterfield, who is a definitely a bigger fan of ps3 than 360, said some of the audience during the sony conference were being so ridiculous and over the top that he was convinced they were paid to be there."
its funny you say that, because they *basically* were. the official PS Blog site gave away two HUNDRED free tickets to the Sony conference, and in no uncertain terms made it clear that it would be worth your while. all you have to do ...
all of a sudden that PS3 confirmed for 2012 list of exclusives is looking awfully light, whereas microsofts is looking even better.
exclusives still to come:
PS3:
Dust 514
Little Big Planet Karting
360:
Halo 4
Forza Horizon
Steel Battalion Heavy Armour
Deadlight
seriously, thats pretty much it. yes, there are the odd little probably 6-7/10 niche exclusive for BOTH consoles, but ...
it really depends on what you define as "scripted".
things like firing when you have no ammo and an enemy hearing it are NOT some sort of super dooper AI - its just a basic piece of code, ie. if player shoots with no ammo, enemy "hears" and calls out that they know you have no ammo and you are "found". thats not good AI, its just an AI routine. same way that if an enemy sees you in his line of site, he attacks you.
its basically...
"Take risks, Microsoft, like how Sony is pumping new IPs for their console. Otherwise yeah your press conference sucked horribly."
number of new IPs announced in respective 2012 E3 press conferences:
Microsoft: 4 (lococycle, wreckateers, ascend: new gods, matter)
Sony: 2 (beyond, wonderbook)
tell me TheDiscobolos - do they teach you that 2 > 4 in school these days?
sonys conference was a snooze fest. it c...
cant agree at all.
to all those carrying on about the AI - there was actually very little AI in that. most of it was just pre-scripted routines.
it was just bad guy walks over to a spot, turns his back to look other way so you can grab him from behind, type stuff. the bit where the girl threw something at the guy and hit him was scripted too before anyone wants to say it was dynamic.
it was underwhelming if you ask me. bit of sneaking around,...
am i the only one who heard him say "$5 a month"?
he definitely said it, but im not sure if he was saying that it costs $5 a month ON TOP OF the PS+ subscription to get the "free" games, or if PS+ overall is $5 a month.
anyone catch it?
well that was a terrible conference, but no doubt youll all be saying they "won" and that it was epic lol.
what did we get from that conference?
- a new interactive cutscene game from Heavy Rain/Fahrenheit creators. expect, you guessed it, limited interactivity cutscene gameplay.
- a name for a vita COD. not even a screenshot.
- a PS3 assassins creed bundle. the PS3 doesnt even have a different skin or anything, just comes with the g...
as a 360 + ipad + win phone 7 owner, xbox smart glass makes me very very excited.
the demo'd concept madden integration was EXACTLY the concepts that i was hoping to see. the halo 4 multiplayer invites on the tablet/phone is awesome, meaning i no longer have to pause the game by going to the guide, find the invite, and accept etc. just touch the invite on my ipad/phone, and away i go.
Microsoft are the undisputed kings of software integration. they dont ...
Lies, Microsoft didn't announce any new IPs, Sony fanboys on N4PS3G told me so.
well isnt this topic just the biggest N4PS3G circle jerk we've seen in a few weeks? lol
im not even gonna bother - up there we have someone just post "GAME OF THE CENTURY" and its got not 1, not 2, but 20 agrees and not a single disagree (well until i disagreed with it). hes proclaiming a game hes never played to be the best game in 100 years, and 20 of you idiots agreed with him? wow. just wow. N4PS3G at its finest.
