The Darkness was a great game, something new. I loved it, and when a certain event happens in the game, you really feel for Jackie. Sitting on the couch watching TV with Jenny was awesome. Too bad it got overshadowed like that.
Sorry if I came across as a d-bag or anything, haha. It's just that me and friends I know just can't really be bothered to bust out an old PS2 and go through all the troubles of switching positions, cables, inputs, etc. just to play some classic games. Hell, me and some of my friends still play Tekken 2 and the PS1 Syphon Filters for the multiplayer modes! I know many people could care less about PS2 BC but that's no reason for them to outright condemn it.
Game has been like $20-$26 here in the states for as long as I can remember.
So how in the hell is Sony taking away everyone's ability to play ANY PS2 GAME THEY ALREADY HAVE AT ANY TIME on the PS3 away, and forcing you to only play a HANDFUL of games that devs randomly decide to port over to PS3 *not* taking away any choices? That makes no sense. Stop riding Sony as if anything they do is flawless and justifiable. This is just another cheap way to make a few extra bucks. Are there any new Sly games coming? No. I don't understand why they're even doing this...
Stupid website wouldn't let me edit my comment so here's the rest of it:
"edit - That's one more thing I've yet to understand: The fanboy bandwagoning. Anything Sony does, its less-intelligent fans will instantly support, even if it's a slap in the face. Sony claimed they dropped PS2 BC due to making a profit off the PS3, but they dropped support long ago and it barely took off any actual cash required to make a PS3. It's obvious they planned thi...
The only way HD Classics are "better" than BC is because they're in friggin' HD, and have trophy support. I don't have an HDTV and I don't give a rat's ass about trophies. I'd LOVE to see Syphon Filter, Silent Hill and a Killzone HD-remake but this was no actual reason to remove BC. They removed it to cut costs, but I don't see why they can't just patch-in software emu like the 2nd-gen PS3s had.
Stop using that stupid-ass cop-out "G...
Don't see how he's lying about anything. Regardless of how small or "insignificant" you think the Minis and PSN games are, the point is that they are software that runs on the PSP and consumers use the buttons to interact with them to achieve things, hence them being games. So yeah, he's not lying about shit, is what I'm saying.
edit - Not to mention many "retail boxed games" are already on the store anyway. This article is a load of crap....
Oh man, sorry. I didn't know everyone else's opinion was somehow supposed to change my mind!
That's hilarious. The wannabe-game is better than the original game itself. Pretty sad.
It's funny you guys say that because SR2 was everything GTA4 should have been. It amazes me how all the GTA3-SA fans suddenly saw GTA4 and decided it was the second coming of Jesus despite the fact that it was NOTHING like the earlier games and didn't have anything in it to make up for it. In SA, you had TONS of shit to do. In GTA4, after I beat the story, all I could do were the assassin missions, or hunt down birds (which I had to shoot?! Wtf is that? Fire one bullet and ten cops ar...
I don't get those last sentences. In SR2, your character would never shut up.
Anyone with sense shoulda known that the SDF was fake as all hell. No way anyone could take them seriously...
I beat that game so many times on PS1, and once on my PSP. I'm about to do a PC playthrough after I install it.
Dylan didn't die. The reason there isn't a Dino Crisis 4 (even though I'd love one where Dylan and Regina come back anyway) is because it's all answered directly IN Dino Crisis 2 and the semi-sequel, Dino Stalker. Did anyone notice the future-Dylan telling his present/past self about what was gonna happen in the future? The only way for that to eve...
Obviously many PC games have quicksaves but the only other console game I know of that has save states was The Orange Box on PS3/360. Worked the exact same as on the PC - you save, the game remembers everything exactly as it was and loads you up right there. It's pretty awesome. Portal 2 will also have this, obviously.
You're all so damn thick, aren't you? I'm black, pretty bad I gotta start my post off like this.
The kid talks like that in pretty much every movie role he's been in (he's not some random kid off the street). They picked him due to his character as a person. There's a pretty high chance he acts and speaks like that in real life. It doesn't take a friggin' rocket scientist to figure out there are kids of many other "races" that speak the...
Go in a dark alleyway somewhere, and blow your face off with a shotgun. Thank you.
I can tell you're a Nintendo fanboy because your username is a horribly-misspelled homage to Yoshi, a Nintendo character. Kinda bad that you ride Nintendo's ballsack so hard and can't even spell their character's names right.
How would Sony even be copying Nintendo? Sony were the first to even have ideas of 3D gaming when it comes to consoles. Just because Nintendo comes out with a 3D handheld first doesn't mean Sony is copying off them.
And li...
YEESSS.
Leave the game exactly how it was gameplay-wise. The only thing people ever complained about were technical issues (texture pop-in, inconsistent framerate, jerky controls) that were all brought-on by the game simply being too much for the PS2 to handle.
If they go through with this, I will die out of excitement.
KZ1 was amazing for what it was. All the "ZOMG killzun suxx XD" bandwagoners only said that because they read reviews all day. The game still had like 70% on Metacritic (not that I ever go by reviews anyway) so bah.
I spent years playing it online. it was the perfect MP shooter for me. They don't need to change ANYTHING. Just up-res everything, with 60fps and trophies and I'll buy MYSELF 20 copies.
How was the game ruined? The only bad thing about the game was Scenario Campaign. Buried beneath that lies a very good fighting game. There's NOTHING wrong with the actual 1v1 fighting game itself, just that you're forced to grind through SC mode for the story was fucking retarded.
