Everyone is going to have a different opinion on which gen was best which is why gaming is so great. I remember the first time I played Mario Bros. on NES back in the 80's and I was hooked for life. I remember when the SNES came out and the graphics were insane and then I got into RPG's with Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy 6(3) and fell in love with the genre. When Super Mario 64, NiGHTS, and the 64 bit era burst onto the scene it was incredible and then Final Fantasy VII and Castlev...
As long as they don't charge for it I don't see how this could be an issue. If they do charge for it then Capcom clearly doesn't get it.
I doubt people will just say no to Dead Space 3, but if they want to let the third one marinate for a while that's fine, they can release Purgatorio (possible sequel to Dante's Inferno) in the mean time.
I want my big games on discs and my small downloadable games, well, downloadable. If games in 20+ years cost $30 new to download then I could be okay with it, otherwise I want it on a disc. If I am going to be charged more than $50 I want something physical that I can hold in my hands.
While I think next year would be a great time to reveal the PSP2, they need to drop the price of the existing PSP by another $30 at least. After five years on the market it seems like it is far too expensive to pay for one. From an everday consumer point of view, parents especially, weighing the options of the two for your kids the DS is a no brainer because it's $40 cheaper. They need to get the PSP down to a more competitive price to drive adoption a little better at this point of the P...
While your logic makes sense in theory there remains the yearly problem of Call of Duty cannibalizing just about every game sale in November. If Gran Turismo wasn't so popular they wouldn't release it in November either because so many people pick up the new CoD. I think LBP is safe because it caters to a very broad group of gamers from casual-hardcore. I actually think a summer or winter (post-Christmas) would allow games like Resistance to stand on their own without a lot of competi...
November is going to be an expensive month for gaming.
I think Move support will be patched into Heavy Rain post-release or at the same time but I don't believe you have to re-buy the game to get the Move support.
@blitz It's likely the game is just isn't ready to have a launch window ready to be nailed down yet. Ratchet and Clank A4O says fall 2011 at the end of the trailer but it's pegged for 2011 on the list. I personally hope that Resistance 3 comes out between inFamous 2 (late spring-early summer) and Ratchet and Clank A4O (late summer-mid fall) as that would be a perfect round out for the summer months and give each game enough space to stand on it's own.
They could easily start the game in North America, follow clues from an ancient Norse settlement to Norway, from there head to Egypt to muck about getting more clues like something that came from the Library of Alexandria, and then to Atlantis. Most popular culture portrays it as a type of underwater city but it could be above water somewhere like Antarctica.
I think they are more likely to formally announce the game at GDC in the Spring with a teaser and then full blown trailer and gameplay at E3. It would maximize the impact and ND are very involved at GDC and if I recall that's how they did it with UC2 also.
I would really like to see them do more planet visualizers like the Earth one. There are increible HD images of most planets they could do a lot with but I am sure whatever PJ comes up with will at least be unique.

Nice use of a new word, at least to me, countertroll, that's great.
I don't mind them so much when they are toward a platinum, but for PSN games with no platinum they suck even more when they are incredibly difficult to achieve.
For the third game I agree that an attack on the Chimeran homeworld would be fruitless because if we can't save our own world how in the hell would we be able to take theirs. Now, if they can manage a Chimera killing virus to kill them off at the end of the game then taking the fight to the Chimeran planet would be aboslutely essential if there was to be a fourth game.
As for the over the top weaponry, one commenter on the article said it best, put a RYNO in there, mas...
Both companies care about the money , though Microsoft probably a little bit more than Sony, but I feel like Sony is equally interested in moving technology forward and into the future as they are about money. Granted successful technologies make them a lot of money but they have helped considerably advance videogame technology over the last 15 years. Microsoft revolutionised online gaming and Nintendo has brought gaming back to the masses. Each of the have their roles to play and in turn get...
The worst part about it, at least for me, is that they aren't even articles just ridiculous videos of him talking and hyping things that are never going to happen. I am so surprised that so many industry people are willing to talk to him seriously in any capacity.
The simple fact that it has taken this long to pull off says a lot. Nintendo and Microsoft should be trying to figure out a way to make their consoles harder to hack and hopefully they will. I also imagine that the Playstation 4 will be next to impossible to actually hack with the length of time it has taken to get into the PS3 and the method may not work for very long either.
People like you are a bane on the industry and any reduction in game sales for smaller developers...
I loved the first inFamous but you can tell they are going all out with the sequel. The gameplay was sick, elec-mag levitating cars and throwing them and looked just as awesome as the Ionic Vortex. The environments, animations, destructability is all look very nice and the game isn't coming out until probably next spring.
Did the presenter say that Cole gets his ass kicked by the Beast at the beginning of the game and that's what prompts him to travel to New Marai...
First, this is kind of old news that has been reported on by other outlets. Second, we have no idea what Sony might be working out with USAF, for all we know they could be working on a specialized FW for them to circumvent the disabling update and still get clean ones. I doubt it's out of Sony's power to come up with a solution to this problem. It also doesn't quote any military officer as being "pissed off" that Sony removed the Linux feature, sure it might be dishearte...
