The UMD driver is obsolete by today's standards, however, to keep retro-compatibility, Sony may offer it as an accessory.
Even considering Apple Insider to be biased in favor to the iPhone, it seems that Wired journalism standards are even lower than gaming journalism.
Smart move by EA Sports.
I still want to know how exactly a rail shooter would benefit from Motion Plus technology.
I haven't played Street Fighter for 15+ years and I though it was hard. I did not have much time with it but I decided to give a pass. I like offline multiplayers games as they allow to share a good time with my friends. Although I have no doubt I would eventually became good with SFIV and have some good online action, it wouldn't be much fun to play with my friends offline.
It is a great game, but for a niche market. The author is spot on saying the accessibility claims are unfo...
After experimenting the controls I guess many people would rather play a Wii version if one was available.
The you cannot die argument is a misconception. The game has a feature in which every time you fall to death or is killed in a sword fight a magical character will save you. However, you are sent back to the place previous to your jump or your enemy will recover from the damage you inflicted, depending of the case. As such, the challenge remains to be overcome, regardless of being saved. This is nothing more than a checkpoint mechanic. However, it is advantageous as it cuts the time wasted in...
It is interesting, the author is right regarding PES in HD systems. However, PES for Wii is the best football game ever made by a very large margin. I hope they apply some of that creativity in forthcoming PES games and not only do a must needed update in the graphic engine.
If he is right then my days as a gamer are also numbered.
At least they recognize they cannot avoid bias being a site called PSP World. My opinion: DSi is too expensive, PSP already slipped below public attention.
I don't understand why the writer said the scenario is "somewhat absurd". It is completely no sense. Just that.
stevenhiggster, you got me wrong. I like the ps3 and I think some of its games are among the best available right now. However, I am just pointing out that dual analogues are dated for console shooters. There is a lot of unnecessary waggle in many Wii games, but to point the wii remote to the screen in order to aim is just right. Indeed, it is the real thing, it is really hard to go back to dual analogues for aiming.
Alternatively, you could considered that, after he get used with the Wii's more natural controls, it became harder to him to go back to the cluttered playstation controls. In my case, it was hard to play MGS4, even considering it has the best controls in the franchise. After playing shooters in the Wii it is hard to move a second analogue stick to aim. It feels unnatural compared to aiming at the screen.
Sorry, but this looks like a fake. Not only Nintendo would deny a license to such game but the box art, if not a mockup, also looks like a fake.
The best scenario is someone try to push the concept to relay a political message.
I wonder why they waste resources by recreating the Miis in their game. Does Nintendo holds the use of Miis to itself and selected companies?
Nice screenshots, I wonder how good the game will looks. Wasn't this game X360 version trashed by reviewers a few months ago? At least I notice they will use the balance boards, so there is some hope they also addressed other issues.
My old ps2 left me with tendinitis in my right thumb, which is the main reason I am a Wii owner right now.
To give FIFA 09 a nomination and not awarding Wii's PES 2008 clearly shows the judges have no clue about football.
Contrary to Slash Gamer pathetic view, this is actually a pretty good list. Obviously, an Entertainment Weekly is biased to casual gaming. No wonder they gave high honors to Wii Fit, which I agree as any game m that capture the attention of my mother definitely deserves to be in such list. They also included Little Big Planet in second position, thrown a few hardcore games, such as GTA IV and Dead Planet and one sport game, Wii Madden, which is truly excellent, especially for Madden newbies. ...
I am ok with the style choice for characters and everything. However, the grass looks horrible, as in all EA Sports games -- it is better in Tiger Woods, but not really great. They could, at least, copy what Nintendo did for Wii Sports, in which the grass looks pretty good.
