Dunno if they are still banning for maphack, that's how they got me years ago.
The only hacks I felt were ban-worthy were any that gave you an unfair advantage in duels and duping methods. Everything else, who cares?
I didn't know this was retailing for 39.99..
though they admitted it wasn't random, just convenient. They should also have asked each person what system they play the most. I mean, its not really surprising that most people answer Natal if they stick to Xbox over PS3 or handheld gaming.
I'm really excited for 3DS. Nintendo has never disappointed me with their handhelds and I'm sure this won't be the first time. I'm absolutely certain that this will be bigger and more successful than Natal or Move when all is said and done- as it should be considering its a new system and not a peripheral.
Move is a nice addition to the PS3 "it does everything" slogan. I've enjoyed motion control where it's worked, and it will be nice to experience it with 1:1 accura...
Sold a cool million.
Original IPs can do really well when they have high production values and are actually good games.
Other original IPs that sold over a million (though not all are all that original):
Assassin's Creed
Resistance
Motorstorm
LittleBigPlanet
Uncharted
Batman Arkham Asylum
inFamous
Heavenly Sword
Bioshock
Mass Effect
Lost Planet
Dead Rising
Viva Pinata
Crackdown
...
Clearly you don't have much experience with good touchscreen games. 'Tis a shame you blindly reject anything beyond a conventional controller.
The next PSP will have a touchscreen, I can assure you. The market is becoming very used to them at this point, thanks to smartphones, ipod touch/iphone and the DS.
Just as Sony is introducing motion control to its console, so will they bring touch control to its handheld. It is a natural progression and inexpensive tech ...
Only difference I believe is the character is a younger. Japanese like playing with young boys.
There must be something wrong with the way you and clownbelt think if you have no interest in this game whatsoever.
It's just one of those things where if you are one of the extreme minority, it makes you look, well, kind of stupid. Like someone who thinks the Godfather is a bad movie.
Anyone who has clearly has never heard of a DS or PSP.
Day one buy:
Red Dead
ModNation
Buy eventually:
Prince of Persia
SSFIV
3D Dot
The rest I'll in all likelihood never have interest in... maybe Split Second.
I think it's pretty safe to assume this will be a 3D game, but the shock may be that it may be a launch title. That would be a brilliant move by Nintendo, assuming they can actually meet the demand.. which I doubt would be possible.
seriously, the guy is a hack.
You are no gamer if you aren't even at least a little excited for the 3DS. The DS has been on the market for awhile, get over it.
That's nice for the PS3 I guess, but really, who cares what percentage of the library is "gold"? I think the bigger bragging rights is just having the highest quantity of "gold" games.
The article mentions the PSP having a better quality library than the DS, yet the DS has over 50% more "gold". I dunno about you guys but when I'm looking at 150 great games I'm hardly concerned about the 700 other crappy ones.
Wonderful news that this is going to be available to more people. This was one of the best DS games of last year that went unnoticed by many. Anyone who likes puzzle games even a little bit ought to check this game out when it hits XBLA and PSN.
D1P for me.
Honestly... these are games that actually need sequels due to their being unbelievably awesome handheld games.
finally will have a reason to check this one out!
do people actually watch or care about this show...
God I hope not.
The 360 controller is good, but no where near the number one spot in my mind, certainly not better than the dualshock. It's awful d-pad automatically removes it from being a top-spot contender. It is comfortable to hold but not as comfortable as others like the gamecube controller.
Obviously from a website such as Planet Xbox there is no way they would place the dualshock higher than the 360 controller, but I'm surprised they had it at #3 though.
It's the 8.5 for presentation and 8 for lasting appeal.
If you look at Ropers reviews for GoW II and III he basically praises both for the same exact things yet somehow gives III a point lower in 3 categories. Its fishy and inconsistent.
Oh, I forgot. Baseball fans don't like video games, right? And gamers don't like baseball... so yeah, useless feature. Thanks for helping me figure that one out.
