How is sony going to price these bad boys? And how will they market them?
Those 2 things will make or break it. Sony MUST take a hit if they want it to be successful. Camera + Wand has to be a pack-in with a ps3 slim and LittleBigPlanet!
If they don't do something like that, I can't see it doing well.
Seeing the PS3 sell 50k units for 2 weeks now is a good sign. Factor in Holidays, FFXIII and the line-up coming and you got a dangerously strong console in the japanese region.
The intergration could be alot of fun. You could have 4 player games where 2 players are on wands and 2 are sackboys/girls. One wand has to protect 1 sack and vice versa.
It could be alot of fun, even competitive challenges.
Japan Studio.
Why did it say that? That means its under the Sony umbrella. Insomniac games don't say, "Santa Monica Studio", eventhough Sony owns the IPs.
Did they silently aquire Level5???
What gets me crazy is the fact the developer said there wouldn't be any coop. That it was a single player experience!!
The thing that made Gears even Remotely fun was (drum roll) COOPERATIVE PLAY!
I'm a Sony fan, but i know the xbox pretty darn well. Infact I proably know Microsoft better then most xbox gamers, hence the reason I will not support Microsoft on the console front.
EDIT: This means I will NEVER EVER support Microsoft. PERIOD. So I guess i'm a fanboy by Xbox fanboys but not literally??
lol. This is a confusing convo.
...M$ is know for this kind of marketing. They do it with Linux and Mac. Its called spreading FUD: Fear.Uncertainty.Doubt.
They did it from the outset of this generation, but people should accept it and know who they are supporting with their dollars. Personally, I will not support this tyrannical company.
(Grabs popcorn and Long Spear, for the war that will ensue...Ready your Weapons!!!)
Sony has been using the Eyetoy to do this stuff for 10 years.
They just never bundled it in a cheap console. You have to remember Nintendo literally "lucked out" this generation. Both Xbox and PS were 400$+ while the wii sat at 250$.
Just because Microsoft will throw big $$ behind the advertising of Natal, it doesn't mean it will stay viable once people use it.
Give it a year and see how it does. Then judge it.
I didn't know people still wanted Alan Wake.
Looks very bland. Just my opinion.
Microsoft IS NOT buying EA.
Stop spreading nonsense.
...sounds like a websites' plea for hits. If this is true then the noise produced by slamming EA was a good thing.
but........

And you're not going to like it.
As I told you before, Cross-game voice chat has been in the works for a while now. I mentioned last time that it was on target for 3.0 providing that we didn't hit any snags. Well gue...
Alot of people didn't like Star Ocean 3: Till the end of Time, but I played it three times. I really enjoyed it. If they make it 720p native resolution I may have to pick this up.
How is this compared to SO3?
...Not because of GT (which is amazing), but because we didnt see a replay or 3rd person to check damage and if its progressed any further!#@@!
...A look at this comment section will agree with me. I'll pass on CODMW2.
I think specifically that first one is using ray-tracing.
That is not technically "gameplay", but it does use the game engine!
So its WIN.
I'm getting tired reading GT vs. Forza. They shouldn't be compared. One is legendary and one is the competing consoles "i wanna be like GT too." Racer. One group has a deep passion for the essence of the car, the other wants to make a 'fun racing game'. Two different design philosophies. I'll always s...
1) I beat the demo on all Difficulties: Noticed zero slow down. Playing on a 1080p 46in tv. (720p native)
2) Blood still exists. The fountains of blood spewing from the arteries does not. I actually welcome the change. I'm not 16 anymore, i don't find it necessary to be gruesome or violent, to me personally its not "cool" or "hip". It keeps a game a game and a gore fest a gore fest. I'd watch the movie Candyman everyday if I wanted a gorefest.
3) ...
...and Loved NGS2 Demo. This is day 1 for me.
One is aimed toward Car Enthusiasts and the other is aimed towards your teenagers.
GT's Class far outdoes forza. Its blatantly obvious. Music, Angles and who the hell drifts ferraris? What kinda pre-pubescent nonsense is that?
Sony needs to release a white ps3. I think its very important to have Black and White. Both being very popular and good neutral colors to add into home entertainment equipment.
