My view on the dialog part: so much of it was as straight forward as you can get - it's like they were trying too hard to make sure the audience was understanding what was happening, instead of making it seem natural. Guess that's what you get when the Facebook crowd is your core audience.
Modest feature base doesn't mean 'user-base' He's referring to the fact PSP didn't have touch screen, cameras, or even tilt sensors like the NGP, Yoshida said they were happy with replicating the PS2 experience. It has nothing to do with Sales. And 'Modest' was not something Yoshida said.
Why would Sony give an exclusive interview to Edge? I guess they're trying to win them over?? It's like Obama going on fox news. It might be a clever way of advertising to Xbox fans.
they need to just use PS cloud with wifi, and do it automatically - this seems like a hassle to me to have to go into the game and the menu to transfer.
How about you buy the PS3 one, get a free download code for NGP?? I would probably pick one up if they did that. I could see Sony exploiting this strategy across many multi-platform games.
PS1 games didn't have a Z buffer, which if you've ever played an emulator on PC when you blow up the graphics to higher resolutions they shift around unnaturally - it's almost better to keep the original low resolution they were used with.
Makes sense, they just released Rainbow Six 2 on the PSN as an attempt to help market the series.
I bet this is the next gen Silent hill Game being done by Climax - that was leaked when a mocap studio leaked it's projects (Socom 4 was included) I would definitely rather have them handle it than any western Dev - Since team silent is no more.
Lol I remember the junglish level in MGS4, how ugly and bland it was.. looks like they started with their greatest weakness with the new engine.
sweet! I wish 4 was in there too, but I'm not going to complain..
Konami... How about Silent Hill next ? :)
I think we'd need a breakthrough on Satellite technology so they could distribute it evenly and cover everyone. Satellite internet currently has a very high ping time - we'd need a very low ping time.
It's a great idea, most isps have little incentive to lower latency. I hope it is the future, it's just a long ways away.
I stole a screen from the back cover when it was up on EA's site..
probably after they feel the bandwidth in use has died down to a reasonable level to handle another wave of mass downloads.
I figured out how they're going to use Kinect.. It's only a small part of the game..
Strangly enough, kinect support on the 360 version might have me buying it on 360 over PS3. Depends on what it is obviously though.
I remember how well voice commanding troops in the old Socom games used to work, or even rainbow six vegas 2. (Very ineffective and gimmicky)
So more multimedia features on xbox? Too bad you can't use a lot of them unless you pay MS a gold Sub. MS tries every year even harder to keep the illusion alive that you're actually paying for something with the sub.
If they want to prove a point and show PS3 fanboys would be all cool if it were MS they were hacking, why don't they do it and prove their point? They could really lay one into the reputation of PS3 fanboys that way. Just maybe that isn't very true at all, but we'll never know it's pure speculation.
I was kind of confused when he said they developed it exclusively for NGP, then later went on to say you can compete with players on the PS3. I'm starting to get the impression we'll see lots of cross platform play happening, with free versions of games if you buy the other (or maybe at a small cost)
