Good blog! Highly interesting to read.
I always called the silent protagonist "Mr. Personality".
Sway is totally right. Also, the games that have been mentioned in the article won't save the Vita. Monster Hunter for instance, will not come to the Vita since Capcom has confirmed MH4 for the 3DS only. Presumably because they can sell more copies because the 3DS sales have been more palatable compared to the Vita sales. Why back a flagging handheld when you've got another with a much larger userbase? Besides, if anything has a chance of being a system seller, it'll have to be So...
Huh? Didn't I write a blog on this? O_o'
Memes aren't funny.
Hmm. IGN/Mitch Dyer gave a 9 for the Silent Hill HD Collection. ON PS3. I think there is a lot more going on with this than is being said.
Wow. I've seen some bad advertisements but this is really pathetic. How will that influence ANYONE to go out and buy a Vita?
Sony's marketing division should be utterly ashamed of itself.
Nope. Too much otaku.
"It disgusts me when people "misuse" freedom of speech and creativity."
Oh boy, here we go.
"Too many people use it as a hot phrase without truly understanding the purpose and meaning behind it. The only times I see it pop up now are when people want to defend something derogatory or insulting that they find entertaining, which "IS NOT" what it was made for."
I am defending them because they've done...
We'll agree to disagree on the video. I agree that their format is a little odd, but the amount of problems and issues that they brought up is pretty damn ridiculous, especially all that nonsense about the voice acting and everything else.
I wish Bluepoint did that HD collection. I hope that ZOE's HD collection can be salvaged. It looks like both versions runs slower than the PS2 version. Utterly mental.
This is an utter shame. I hope Kojima puts his foot down and demand that there be drastic improvements for both versions or decide to go with using that Bluepoint company since they clearly know what they are doing in terms of making HD remakes and they have experience to back it up.
Also, check out TwinPerfect's dissection of the Silent Hill HD collection and what really went wrong with it in the attached video.
@Studio-YaMI Thank you for the thoughtful reply. In my opinion, all of those incidents are incredibly dangerous towards the freedoms of speech and expression. I understand your viewpoint about being aware of a religion's tenets and to be receptive to it. However, I cordially disagree that there shouldn't be anything related to Islam in a video game. It'd be strange to have a fighting stage in Saudi Arabia to not have anything to do with Islam since it's primarily a Muslim theo...
If I so may reply to this; I sincerely doubt that the Namco team would've deliberately put it in unless it suited the theme of that particular level. Saudi Arabia is an Islamic theocratic monarchy and it's rather odd to not have anything representing that particular religion from that place. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
It's not the first time that Muslims have steppe...
Interestingly enough, 343 studios have hired people from Retro Studios who are most notable for making the Metroid Prime series. The Haloverse is also incredibly interesting; especially when the books explored how the Spartan program came about and the implications that went along with it. I hope the next Halo games explore those areas a little more.
Resident Evil might need a bit of a reboot. They really need to get back to basics and start figuring out what made the series great and make it palatable for the modern gaming audience.
Do people normally look yummy when they are old?
No. They just look old.
How about this video then?
It looks good to me.
Sure. N4G could probably do that and ban stories of Pachter but other game websites will still go on whatever he says. He's a charlatan but he knows how to make money.
Of course it'll be a success. Pachter is trying to gain exposure from the news cycle to reach out to new investors.

That's pretty cool. Will be checking it out.
@Silent Negotiator " People are disappointed with the Wii U? You must be devastated. I'm sorry for your loss."
I'm not devastated or disappointed by the Wii U's specs. I'm just surprised that anyone would be, considering previous Nintendo iterations. I will give it a chance, unlike some people here.
"People aren't happy with the Wii U only being slightly more powerful than the current consoles. No one is asking for a "b...
