And I'll buy the game straight away as it's easy to copy and improve especially if you have alot of money like M$ has.
And yes, M$ was lucky to buy Bungie and get Halo. Though they're unlikely be that lucky, again.
We should all rejoice at getting an improved/better interpretation of a great game.
Likewise with the parents who got their kids an xbox 360.
But they could have done better by including R&C, EoJ as gifts too, getting the kids really upset and sad because dad made a big mistake....then Kapow!...surprise, surprise.
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell.
Okay, maybe not in the same graphics league but if you want more realistic stealth then look no further.
But M$ should be able to pull it off and I'm ashame to admit I'd be one of the first to buy it. It's easy to copy any game and improve it.
MGS should have had a 'realistic' make over years ago - in terms of stealth, camo, AI, destructable enviros, fully useable vehicles etc.
This should be a clear wakeup call about the casual gamer.
DON'T underestimate them. The fact is the majority of ps2 owners/buyers are casual gamers - not diehard gamers but casual gamers.
The current owners of a xbox 360 are likely to be fans and diehard gamers resulting also in better software sales per capita install base.
However, the Ps3 base will will be a mix of diehards, casuals, brand loyalists, newbies, speculators, HD philes etc. Thus th...
Agree with @SilverKiller...pictures are fake. They are early wii-mote prototypes.
But even so, I'm confident Microsoft will be copying the Wii-mote concept.
It's what Sony should have done instead of keeping the traditional controller and adding motion control. But once Microsoft comes out with their X-mote, I'm sure Sony will follow with the Play-mote.
I was saying this months ago that the Wii-mote concept is the controller of the future. The wii ...
Disappointed Gamespy didn't give UDF the Best Graphics award. I mean, are they blind or something.
So when the GT review said UDF was easily the best looking game on a console, they were lying.
Obvious GOTY would go to CoD4 or....SMG
the reason for great games not selling well. Not all owners are going to like games like UDF or R&C or even UT3.
The Ps3's diverse ownership base and subsequent game tastes will be a problem while the install base is under 10 million.
Compare this to the majority of xbox 360 owners who just love shooters or action games and will gladly buy most games released.
Plus if you own multiple consoles then you'll get you game fix from the console that...
And this Sony fanboy would have to concede GOTY victory to SMG.
And LBP Goty 2008 maybe?
me want now. Should be MP online heaven but hope it still has good SP.
The delay would be credible if 2-3 months but not 8.
The only way that could be true is if there was a major problem or ....
... Ubisoft has seen how saturated the market is with FPS and the pickiness of Ps3 buyers especially with respect to UT3(ie. wait till the install base is larger to increase sales).
The latter is more feasible if this delay is true.
Delays are the favourite rally call these days for those pathetic xbots.
They're running out of things to criticize the Ps3 about - games library growing, developers know what they're doing, price dropping, return of rumble and slowly but surely PSN is improving.
And if this delay is true then its for the good of the game. Hell, look at Assassins Creed. It's a okay game but should have been great - should have been delayed another 6 months to fix the glitches and...
Heavenly Sword, EoJ, Folklore, Uncharted and Warhawk(New due to different direction it went compared to original game).
Like RFOM and MS, quality new IPs whose sequels will undoubtedly be alot better.
Was told so by a Sony Store staffer in NZ.
Yes rumour. Don't know how credible he was but he didn't hesitate to confirm the only SKU for NZ is the 40G with 60G SKU being run out and to wait for 120G SKU 2008.
Hmmmmm? Combined with the imminent flood of AAA games, the two SKU policy(cheap & expensive), improving PSN, growing install base, then things are looking good for the Ps3.
@mesh
stay an xbot. YOu're one of the biggest x-DROIDS around. Stick to your own and don't violate the Laws of Nature. Could be the end of the universe.
...that will likely have a much better sequel(s).
Damn. How do you get better than a 10/10 XD
Only a year old and the Ps3 has some very impressive new IPs.
Can't wait for their sequels.
That the GOTY contenders should only be the GOTY Winners of each console.
So the real deciding factor likely to be how much MP online plays in the scoring.
"...come together for one of the most engaging experiences gamers can find in 2007..."
Perfectly sums up UDF. Nothing revolutionary, keeping things simple but putting them together into a highly entertaining package.
And it's just SP. I wonder if CoD4 was a consideration and if so, well, UDF beat it. Wow.
Bring on UDF2 with fully useable vehicles, coop & online MP.
Likewise R&C, Folklore, HS.
We need to reward developers with sales for doing great work. And so that they don't start to favour another console due to its games sales.
with this crap/rip-off rhetoric.
Here in New Zealand:
40G Ps3 NZ$800
60G Ps3 NZ$1200
New Ps2 NZ$180 .... and that's if you don't already have one.
You're comparing a cheese burger to a Big Mac. You get what you pay for and the fact is they are both burgers(ie. a gaming console).
Jeez. The Ps3 is just over a year old and people expect a NZ$200 Ps3 already. Whatever.
BTW. The Ps3 is easily 4 x better than ...
Damn, will I be pissed if the developers of KZ2 * DON'T * learn from the successful games(eg CoD4, Warhawk, GeoW, UT3, Halo) and simply copy and improve on the things implemented in them.
That's what the 'talented studio' will undoubtedly be doing.
