I mean, I wouldn't exactly call her a superstar....but she's been around long enough that you couldn't have missed her...
You'd have to almost be trying to miss her.
But I didn't actually play the game until February.
I don't know what changed between launch and February, but I haven't experienced any problems.
Perhaps that's just me.
At the time, only the Dreamcast was available.
The day that digital distribution becomes the sole way to get games and physical copies goes away.....
That will be the day when we don't need consoles anymore to play AAA games anymore.
That will happen at some point.....but we ain't close yet.
I'll tell you why:
Because if you think about this.....I mean really really put your thinking caps on and brainstorm....
What other product/brand/franchise does Sony have with commercial dominating potential?
What other product?
Answer: Right now the only product Sony has that can dominate and put Sony in the drivers seat of importance, is the PLAYSTATION brand.
It's not TV's, because Samsung and LG and othe...
I mean, it's been 6 months since release, and now they start to clearance some stuff out right before other stores start clearancing this game out.
6 months is about the time games start going for $20 anyways.
Now, I bought the game for $30 ($29.96) from FRY'S ELECTRONICS in May, which was 2 months after the game came out. That was more amazing at the time, in my opinion.
But I think I pretty much know the sentiment of what your going to say regarding: "Why Sony will add multiplayer to PSN+ next gen"

I've had this conversation with a few others, and what first must be understood, is what Sony is trying to do with SEN/PSN.
Sony is gearing the SEN/PSN up for a battle with Apple. They've got a long way to go, but that is their plan and that's why they have iterated their plans on conne...
"...especially when we have all those powerful cards."

Most PC's don't have the powerful cards you are implying.
Most PC's are WALMART'ish PC's, and can't just be discounted like some may want or think they should be.
Developer's games must be catered to those lower end PCs and laptops too, as they are needed and necessary to the total economy and ecosystem of PC gaming. <...

Can't hurt.
:P
That aside,
Do you know that since Dreamcast, there as never been a home console system that hasn't, at the very least been acknowledged by said console maker with at least a year's notice from launch?
Some people think XBOX 360 at E3 2005 was....but no...XBOX 2 was acknowledged by MS as early as 2003.

Sony has already said NO.
There is no PS4 coming in 2012 or 2013.
Period.
Hint: When you hear NO.....That doesn't mean Yes
There are literally zero signs.
-2012 is pretty much over and there's been no mention or acknowledgement
-PS3 doesn't get a price drop in 2012...which means that Sony is planning on the PS3 lasting longer
-Tons of PS3 games are getting announced for 2013
-Sony has continually said NO
I'm not talking about what you, I, or anyone else wants to happen.
I'm talking about what is GOING to happen.
There is no ...
Nintendo has almost zero online experience or infrastucture....this is actually true with most Japanese based game developers.
Nintendo's lack of a real harddrive was telling that they have little in the way of seriousness for their online component, and you don't just create one overnight.
The Wii U will suffer regarding its online experience, and it was pretty obvious to anyone that was willing to look at it objectively.
These miniscule differences don't mean anything, and don't change the game from being really good.

video game news back in 2003.
Microsoft mentioned and acknowledged an "XBOX 2" as early as 2003...more than 2 years before XBOX 360 actually launched. Yes, it became OFFICIAL (gave it a name) publicly in Summer 2005, but Microsoft spilled the beans on it way before that....here you go.

Think about it....it's already the end of 2012....the only show we have left this year is TGS this week...so once that's done 2012 is done...were basically in 2013....basically.
If there's no announcement, acknowledgement, or mention by Sony for a PS4, then its over, and we're looking at holiday 2014...and even that's not guaranteed, but 2014 at the earliest.
Also keep in mind, that regarding PS4 for 2013, whenever Sony officials have been as...
The PS3 is more powerful than the XBOX 360.
You're f'd now.
