This confirms one thing to me. Square Enix are full of Es Ech Eye Tee.
This game was multiplat from the get go. They just wanted to squeeze as much money from Microsoft as possible before making the deal final.
I swear more people turned up to watch Lo perform and jizz their panties over him, than they did to buy the game. Jesus christ. But it's a good way of marketing it though. No doubt it probably worked a f*ck tonne.
How can you call Sony arrogant for pricing their console at a reasonable price considering whats in it, when MS expect consumers to fork out ridiculous money for peripherals that add things to the 360 that should have been built in from day one...here, lets have a look shall we?
# Faceplate ($19.99, 19.99 Euros, 14.99 GBP)
# Hard Drive (20 GB) ($99.99, 99.99 Euros, 69.99 GBP)
# Memory Unit (64 MB) ($39.99, 34.99 Euros, 22.99 GBP)
# Wireless Networking Adapter ($...
You mean the way Xbox fanboys seem to think it will. Sony's Sphere and Microsoft's Natal will not make as big an impact as some think. They are add ons. Nothing more nothing less. And the Wii is already crushing them. I ask people this...casuals, who already only really take their Wii out at parties or dinners, are they really going to go out and rush to buy an Xbox 360 which already has the hardcore image attached to it?
No, because they hardly play games and spend money on games in th...
How can you say MS don't have arrogance when they are the most arrogant out of the 3 this gen :/ Sony was last gen but after a crappy launch they realized how dumb they were. Meanwhile MS took their place as most arrogant and constantly bash the competition, lie about numbers and act as if they are the industry leaders when they are getting pwned worldwide every month, lack first party studio's with a sense of innovation and creativity and live off of the "me too" ethos which shows ...
@ above...are you joking?
Halo ODST
Mass Effect 1 and 2
Blue Dragon
Star Ocean IV
Forza 3
Lost Odyssey
Final Fantasy XIII
and god knows what else.
PS3 hardly has mandatory installs anymore. Last time I played a game with a mandatory install was Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm in November 2008. Since then it's not mandatory. Tell a lie though, I got Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 in October and that was mandatory but still.
If Sony followed Microsofts traits they'd go down the pan. The only thing Microsoft have brought to the industry is the expansion of online gaming on consoles. And with that they have brought a culture of backstabbing, rip off's, faulty hardware, lies and much more. I have no problem with their system, but Microsoft is such an unlikeable company, I wish everyone just separate themselves as far as possible from the ethos that MS follows, because the way I see it,they're like dead weight. Since...
No. This is up in the air atm. 360 may dominate. PS3 may dominate.
PS3 has :
God of War III
Modnation Racers
Gran Turismo 5
Final Fantasy XIV ONline
Agent
Heavy Rain
The Last Gaurdian
Motion Controllers
Premium Services
Xbox 360 has:
Metro 2033
Splinter Cell Conviction
Mass Effect 2
Halo Reach
Fable III
Natal
Possible improvements to Xbox Live
Although PS3 ha...
I think it goes a bit deeper than that. Remember they are called World Warriors. So there portrayals of all kinds of nationalities in Street Fighter. Also this being the first Korean character in the series, they want it to be done properly :D
Not in the slightest. But, It's common knowledge that although VGChartz initial figures are bogus a lot of the time, they give us a rough idea of the state of play in the market.
So if they're saying the PS3 is ahead, we can assume that it is. But by a bigger margin than they are stating (given their history for inflating 360 numbers etc).
I would go so far as to say the lead may be 1 or so million more than what's written down. The PS3 recently hit 30 million. The 360 is weighin...
It only does cakes!
Actually, what the magazine is saying is that Star Ocean 1 and 2 on PSP are going platinum. And will be available from March of next year.
http://www.examiner.com/x-1... this is why.
No impact on PS3 sales? Just look at what Final Fantasy XIII did to PS3 sales in Japan. Final Fantasy is a system seller. You need to understand that. Why do you think Microsoft pushed so hard for FFXIII to come to 360. Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo and Final Fantasy have always been the franchises that sell Playstation systems. Do your homework. You've obviously only been gaming since this gen.
@Chris399
Sony own publishing rights for the game outside of Japan. Knowing how close Sony hold that specific title in the series, they would be the first to know about it and would most likely pay a lot of money to keep it exclusive. They are so actively involved with the compilation. Published the original and also distrubted Advent Children. Not to mention they're support of the film with Advent Children Complete and Blu-Ray. This is one game I can honestly never seen leaving ...
It can't be Kingdom Hearts III. It must be FFVII remake. That is literally the only feasible conclusion I can personally come to.
Bayonetta will poo all over God of War and Dante's Inferno in terms of what it brings to the action genre. God of War III will be amazing though. The epic combat, the set pieces, story...will make it a great experience. Dante's Inferno is another story though. It shouldn't even be compared. It's just following in God of War's shadow.
To all the Bayonetta haters. Stop following like sheep and hating on it because it looks a bit different. Fact is, it's getting praise from everywhere sayi...
A step below Infinite Undiscovery? The combat systems are like polar opposites. You're talking crap lol.
Does Infinite Undiscovery give you the ability to set up 3 custom movesets as well as make combo attacks from the ground up, which can be named and also added to you move palette? No.
This. The game looks great before your eyes in motion. And the environments are BEAUTIFUL. Can't wait for WKC2. I don't like how WKC ended. Left me wanting more
A great list but whats worrying as that every single game listed there is multiplat. Microsoft need system sellers in there if they want to start outselling the PS3 WW again and the only game that looks to do that is Halo Reach in September and even then, people who want Halo Reach already have a 360 most likely. First Party and Second Party is the foundations of any good platform holder. Looking at this list, Microsoft haven't realized that quite yet.
