Thanks a lot! :O(
Anyway, this looks like Kameo crossed with Crash Bandicoot crossed with maybe Sonic Adventure.
The humble, balanced, statements of Mark Cerny helps a lot.
He's not claiming it's necessarily the 'Second Coming' of platform games but that it's a very nice way to get relaxed i...
At the end of the day, if you don't like roaming around a city being criminalistic, where a sense of freedom and small talk trumps tense atmosphere then the GTA series is not the one you're looking for.
It's the videogame equivalent of a 70s/early 80s cop movie.
Personally that's not my thing and as it seems that they struggle to match the fun of San Andreas in each subsequent installment I'd be unlikely to invest so much time in it that I'd ev...
GTA's never seemed to have a massive amount of haters so I'd say that if a user rating is 7.5 then it might be broadly true. The fun factor is important.
What's really annoying is that people don't even say what they disagree with. They just love to hate. It seems that the more balanced the post the higher the likelihood that it will get disagrees. My post partly says that although the PS4 probably deserves to sell more some individual games on the Xbox One might deserve to sell more than a PS4 game you might choose to set them up in a versus match with. It's obvious really. And then I big up the actual people who make the games on...
I'd much rather have Knack than Ratchet and Clank.
Surely Naughty Dog will be bringing back Jak and Daxter for 1 last outing on the PS4?
Call me old fashioned but when a bandwagon gets going, no matter how valid it might be, I start wanting the tortoise to beat the hare.
In sales figures, the PS4 will probably deserve to sell more.
I love the PS3 and the PS4 is going to pick up that gauntlet with ease,
But in individual game sales, every console always has a few exclusives that their competition do not quite match.
You can be the most passionate Sony supporter in the w...
Call me old fashioned but when a bandwagon gets going, no matter how valid it might be, I start wanting the tortoise to beat the hare.
In sales figures, the PS4 will probably deserve to sell more simply because of the history of indie games and the quality of Naughty Dog / SCE Japan. I love the PS3 and the PS4 is going to pick up that gauntlet with ease,
But in individual game sales, every console always has a few exclusives that their competition do not quit...
Of course they will. But the important thing is that you know who the new devs are and where they are 'coming from', that you are as close to a participator as you can be rather than just a consumer.
No, it's just people sitting in their own rooms like it always was, hugless and baconless unless they buy some. But now they form what they come to regard as 'meaningful' relationships with people miles away. It's about as meaningful as forming a relationship with someone because they happen to like the same cereal as you.
Wouldn't it be great to work for a company like Sony. The internet has changed nothing in that respect. It still comes down to passionate creativity, all the tools and time that you need and friendly support from your colleagues and customers alike.
Many of Sony's customers will be relatively young people who have not yet fully let cynicism and disappointments cloud they way that they treat both themselves and others.
"As a business, the minute we don’t listen to our customers attentively, and adapt and react in an appropriate way, then we would be in a dangerous place."
I think that listening to the melting parts of an Xbox360 as it turns in to an RROD in testing sometime back in 2005 would have been an even better idea.
Can it be that SCE Japan is the only Japanese studio whose games I've really cared to play this generation? (not having a Nintendo system).
Perhaps it would be more of an exact gameplay match to compare Ryse on XboxOne to Shadow of the beast on the PS4.
Deep Down has a very impressive trailer that seems to convince me that, for fire and particle effects, the PS4 will be better.
The XboxOne has been skilled at showing off arcade feeling types of games such as Killer Instinct, Dead Rising 3, Forza 5 and previously Kinect title Ryse. Even Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break have an 'arcadey' ...
It could almost be a PS2 box. Sony are conservative , graphic design wise.
Fortunately, Sony do make the best adverts by far. Unfortunately, I doubt that the wackiness and decadence of the early PS3 adverts is going to make a comeback. But that's compensated for by the fantastic Greatness Awaits advert. But they need to get that energy across all of their marketing.
Don't be confident then. And don't have an Xbox One in your house.
Absolutely agreed - but the horse that finishes in first place doesn't necessarily give the only ride in that race worth having.
Let's look at people's complaints about DRM:
Argument: 'It's my game and I'll sell it if I want to'.
Defence of Microsoft- They AGREED with you. Everybody knows that you can buy a game and find that you don't like it. So they were going to make it so that you could sell a physical copy once. But after that? Why should the games industry support what, in theory, could potentially turn in to an infinite consumption of just one copy o...
They're not necessarily in a very different situation.
There will be plenty of people who buy Xbox consoles who've never been bothered about playing Halo.
The main difference might be with platforming games. Insomniac release loads of Ratchet and Clank sequels (and Uncharted and Infamous are partly kind of platformers) whereas Xbox consoles don't feature a lot of platform games sequels, unless it's multi-platform series like Sonic the Hedgehog...
It's obvious that Sony would never have been as silly as outright claiming that the Emotion Engine was superior in all ways to the Xbox's processor.
But , at least in practice, it is obvious to me that some PS2 games had a subtlty of visuals touch that, if the Xbox had even had similar games, its brute PC-like architecture would have laid on too thick with a spade.
I never played an Xbox game that did facial emotions as well as the PS2 did. And, simil...
Uncharted 3's sand! That was a glorified cut scene push the stick section. It didn't make me like sand sections.
They always show it in relation to the game because it makes it look mysterious but the actual section is just as tiresome as trekking through a desert.
