oh man, Nintendo is headed for some deep s**t,
this shouldn't be a surprise as Sony lost money on the slim, and the Wii U has a GPU and CPU of a bigger transistor count and a costly gamepad instead of a HDD
The fictional world they've created looks promising but the weapons and the whole doomsday substance seems really cheap and lame to me.
They shound end their awesome support for the game with a patch that REMOVES 3D and RESTORES ORIGINAL UNCHARTED TOP-OF-THE-INDUSTRY BEAUTIFUL GRAPHICS ! ! ! ! ! !
and f*ck Sony's bankrupt (shi)TV and trash electronics departments ! ! !
Yes the made PSS into a separate webapp and it paves the way for the exact same store to be available via web browser, on Windows 8, iOS and Android
LOL, Sony should watch and take notes:
"At last! a new console that redefines handheld gaming!"
"So what is the Playstation Vita?"
...the augmented reality crap and motion sensing (little deviants, free AR games)
...the rear and front touch (little deviants again, LBP)
...real console games with dual analog sticks:
play call of duty, uncharted and assassin's creed on a juicy 5'' OLED scr...
yea, the six-axis projectiles were awesome, my favorite piece of the game
Such a shame Sony fucked up their relations with such talented studios like Ninja Theory and Ready at Dawn. This is also probably the developers' vault as they become full of themselves after the praise they received for the games they made for Sony and became victim to the leaving-the-band-to-do-a-solo- career syndrome (music industry).
Ninja Theory's own game after departure FAILED but they were so lucky because they got hired to do DmC essentially going back to be...
Oh man, check out their portfolio images, such talent being let-go? insane!
Ni no Kuni is pushed forward to november
I on the other hand have faith in the game :D or at least I'm cautiously optimistic - the box art is awesome, and the recent touched-up "screenshots" looked cool, I like the environments and the character models, both very consistent and atmospheric. Gotta hand it to them, they make great graphics. I also like the gun sounds on some trailer, loud and brutal.
The Collections tab is a strange one, bringing together multiple games under one banner, such as Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet, and FIFA. While it seems useful at first, it does make you wonder how Sony chose which third-party franchises will receive collections. Did EA pay for the FIFA Collection, for example? Plus, many of the featured games simply tell you they are only available at retail, which isn't exactly the most useful information in a digital store.

The Liberation Bundle is basically the hottest gaming product this season
Not to mention he's wrong about the bundle proposition:
The $250 bundles do include a game and a 4GB memory - $60 or $70 value,
so people that go for CoD can assume they're getting the system for... $180
Versus is probably done by the Nomura part of S-E, that's why it's taking so long, because that department small and has mainly been working on KH games.
The FF department on the other hand is busy with Lightning Returns and scrambling to get FF14 done and launched this year on two platforms.
last minute fixes :D or maybe big publishers argued about their "heroes'" exposure :D
It boils down to them having to retire their original assassin's Anvil engine and develop a new one that is more capable.
While their main competitor calls this daring move "counter-productive" (CoD), this benefits them hugely: on one hand the current-gen franchise made a technical leap forward instead of stagnating, which counters consumer fatigue; on the other hand the company is already prepared for next-gen and can jump-start out of the gate.
the undisclosed reason is probably all hands on FF14 deck at S-E for at least the last year
i'm betting for an April/May release, similar to GTA4
CoD:BOD AC3:L NFS:MW
with this triple-A trio the Vita is going to rock;
add to that the excellent LBP:V and U:GA,
the serviceable annual sports: Madden, FIFA and MLB:TS,
the AAA fighters: MK, MvC, SFxT,
the AAA JRPGS: P4:G, Ragnarok,
the other Sony franchises: R:BS, MNR, W2048,
the exclusive games: Escape plan, Gravity Rush, Soul Sacrifice,
many other games, bigger and smaller,
and finally the PSP library as well...
what's with the giant spike around week 40?
