to all those who are downplaying the 720p vs 576p resolution difference, i guess we shouldn't be seeing you guys in ANY comparison articles then. Seeing how 30% less pixels doesn't matter, i'm sure you won't be able to tell the difference anyway.
the power of Sony's 1st party studios
i would like to see the engineer class getting a tagging ability that gets the turrets to focus fire on the 'tagged' area. Oh and it would be nice if they forces player to stand still before firing a rocket ;)
DragonAge is a true wrpg and it's great. ME1 however strays too far for my taste and ME2(haven't played it) seem to increase the distance further by reducing the rpg elements.
I won't go so far as to label ME2 a 'rpg wannabe', but it is more like a TPS with rpg elements imo. At least that's what i felt while playing ME1. When it comes to shooter-rpgs, i prefer games like Fallout3.
All of my favourite games have epic stories and atmosphere. I can't remember the last time I cried during a film, but there have been quite a few games that made me shed a tear(MGS4 the most recent example) ;)
this + the countless GoTY awards and 10 AIAS awards UC2 swept up....Sony must be very proud :)
i agree, this game really looks good. Will be keeping my eyes on this one :)
i was really expecting a KH3 after Versus.....
i think it's common knowledge by now that the handhelds have the most rpgs this gen.
Quality-wise though, imo
Best Action-RPG - Demon's Souls
Best SRPG - Valkyria Chronicles
Best JRPG - FF13
Best WRPG - DragonAge
Best Shooter/RPG - Fallout3 or ME1(haven't played ME2)
Overall Best RPG -Demon's Souls
KH2 is my favourite PS2 game last gen so i'm can't wait for FF13 Versus
@cold2000 all can be played without a 360 s...
maybe it's just me, but the low resolution visuals completely kills off the graphical appeal of SO4. Upgraded resolution was the first thing on my mind when the ps3 version was announced and i'm disappointed to say the least.
Anyone else noticed that IGN uses a senseless scoring system?
SO4:
Presentation - 7.0
Graphics - 7.0
Sound - 8.5
Gameplay - 8.5
Lasting Appeal - 8.5
Overall - 8.5
WKC:
Presentation - 5.5
Grap...
the outstanding online award should have been given to Demon's Souls for pure innovation. DragonAge obviously deserves the Best RPG award but i would have voted for DS, it was much more unique and memorable for me.
mw2 wouldn't have won anything had UC2 been classified under both Action and Adventure categories :/
but apart from FF13 Versus, Kingdom Hearts 3 is the only other SE game i'm interested in. Nomura is overworked atm though, so we'll probably not see it till 2013 earliest :(
and to jaffe, you better not be joking about this........
everything so far pretty much confirmed a sub-HD resolution for the 360 version. Now we shall wait for the framerate comparison. We already know how well the ps3 version performed, let's see if SE really bayonetta-ed this port
we have seen what the PS3 can do, now we'll wait for the 360 exclusives to catch up...
edit* wow the site is getting slammed, can't get in -_-
i love new IPs, gaming gets stale without them
is that they removed too many features without adding anything new.
I agree that developers should concentrate on their vision first, but there must be something really wrong when people starts criticising about lack of content.
My main beef is with the compromises they have made with this game. Looking back at the innovations FF12 made, FF13 looks like a huge step backwards. There's very little about FF13 that hints at a 'next-gen' JRPG.
give us ps3 owners the full content then, don't gimp our game too just to achieve parity.
though i knew something was up, i wasn't expecting this.
i'll never understand why devs reduce resolution unless there is really no choice. Scaling down details and lighting would have been more acceptable imo.
Low resolution can really kill the looks of a game e.g.SO4
it's an approximation, feel free to calculate the actual figure if you wish.
