I wish, but he's already seen a fighting game in the MvsC series, so it's not him given their other quotes in the press about who it is.

That... you're probably right, it's probably Asura. He hasn't seen a real fighting game yet, he fits that aesthetic already, yeah, that's brilliant.

Haggar, on the other hand, has already been in a fighting game, so no. Haggar for mayor!

A new Power Stone would be amazing. Maybe that'll launch with the Dreamcast II *lolsob*.

Yeah, @GenericNameHere, that team is probably traumatized for life with what happened with SFIII and Double Impact. Oh well, it all resulted in one heck of an awesome fighting game in Third Strike.

I'd say that Street Fighter 5 isn't going to happen for a long while, but @DrRobotnik has a great idea - look at SF4's characters in the future instead. I'd love to see an Alpha-like spinoff happen, maybe a Street Fighter Omega, taking place in some far-flung neon-...

That was just an unprofessional move. Game companies thrive on their fans, and some of them are bound to be Sony gamers exclusively. I know that a lot of back-office discussion might focus on ROI when making a Vita version of a game (but WiiU? Really?), but come on - you already made the PS3 version, and you scaled it down for 3DS. It can't be that tough or expensive to do.

Right? How the tables have turned, apparently! It's been the old Japanese gaming idea that Westerners are the lazy ones who can't take a challenge, while the Japanese were ready for anything.

I think we should take Miyamoto's stuff seriously. Yes, MH is tough, but that isnt the whole market. Obviously he's seeing a trend with the free-to-play MMO market, largely Korean and Chinese, working its way into Japan now that Japan isn't the gaming monolith it used...

"I can't tell you how many times i went to play a game on steam only to find out steam was down or a server for a game had issues."

You can turn Steam to Offline Mode. This doesn't help at the point in which you are offline, as the first time you need to authenticate.

Servers for other games, though? That's the game company's problem, not Steam (although maybe Valve, how's TF2 and Counterstrike?) or any PC game vendor. Well, ex...

That would have been an easy cash grab, but he didn't do it because the feel of the game was off. There aren't that many creators out there who can use that as a reason to not release a game, no metrics or anything; just goes to show you the kind of respect Miyamoto still carries in the industry.

I don't think we can easily compare that to cars. They're a huge investment for the masses, but if you're in the market for a GTR or an M3, and you want one, specs *do* matter. At the very least, you've read an article or two from the car enthusiast press. You've probably test-driven both. And you'd realize that a car is more complex than the base horsepower, just as the PS4 and Xbone have more than a CPU - there's RAM, the GPU, the OS, etc. The M3's strength i...

Also, for anyone new to Cho, I recommend this game, Torus Trooper:

Oh yeah! Kenta Cho's stuff is awesome, this comes highly recommended!

Of course, you can just download the PC versions for free.

Valve started with Gabe, who spent years as an OS developer, and they're starting to really function like an OS company with Steam.

Their business model doesn't seem like it depends on games revenue at all. They even use some of their most beloved games, Half-Life 2, Portal, and Portal 2, as freebies so often to coax you into loving Steam (and it works, it's how I got there!).

If and when they make Half-Life 3, it won't be Valve's biggest ...

If they've got Alex's old stage back with that awesome music, absolutely!

We called it the Xbox 180 when they turned around on their DRM policies. If they turn back the same way... it's the Xbox One. Holy crap. It almost seems planned if I say it like that.

The article's kinda disheartening. I was hoping for a lot of gameplay ingenuity alongside the simplicity, and that's what a game aimed at all ages, including children, should have. There's not much to Mario 3D Land - jump, run, sometimes shoot things, sometimes glide - but the magic in that game is in the level design, which first amazes by the really varying mechanics going on, and then just ramps up difficulty like a MF for the special levels. The article describes Knack more li...

"Darker announcer" was one of the top requests. "Darker." "Announcer." I don't even. Terrifying indeed. What, was the crazy monster-truck announcer from last time too uppity for you, or are you just frightened that you'll get Street Fighter Alpha 3's guy this time around? Let's have Christian Bale Batman announce it.

@The_Con-Sept

Brilliant move by Sony to buy out Powerman 5000! They already had a great voice for the PS4 in Mark Cerny, but it was very well-known that Microsoft was looking at Spider One to be Mattrick's successor. Now you get the cool, dulcet tones of Cerny's technological brilliance, juxtaposed with the slidey almost-rap, George Clinton meets Fred Durst-esque punctuated by bouts of screaming stylings of Spider.

It's not too long before they bu...

Uh-uh. Suda51's a designer. Go with a screenwriter/director/producer . I'd say he's the Harmony Korine of video games - his stuff is usually pretty low-budget, extremely crass, very polarizing, and if you don't get what he's trying to do, you're probably going to walk away from it pretty quickly.

I'd say Nolan North is the Cage of video games, since he's an actor and does just about anything, but he's better at it, too.
