You don't need an article to state the obvious, Sony not promoting their stuff, nothing new here
@PCE
IF you're the one that is communicating what a PlayStation Vita is to your friends instead of the Company that biuld the device, well, something is wrong there
That's kind of "word of mouth advertising" doesn't work with the masses, if they don't see and ad on TV, streets or whatever, ...
I'm confused, that's some spinning to favor Nintendo instead of accept the fact that X360 was the best selling Home Console in 2011, or what?
Wait, so 270k units is bad now or am I missing something?
I agree that we need new consoles asap, but that doesn't mean sales are s*** to jump out of this gen like in desperation mode :P
Funny thing, in gaf an article appeared showing how Sony has a patent for a tablet like controller that was filed in 2010, so it's not like one company is super revolutionary and the others just copy/paste, pretty much all companies have the same ideas, though the first to apply is the winner, well if it turns out to be good :P
Rumors hint
Next Xbox -> codename: infinity -> ∞ = 8 = W8
What everyone saying is that electronics evolve and they are expecting a Jack of All Trades kind of device, because that what's the I-Devices supposedly do
Yeah, Dedicated Gaming Devices are outdated and it has nothing to do with being more powerful, in fact Vita could be 3 times more powerful than the PS3/X360 and the result would be the same
Why? because analysts, people in the buzz and trend followers believe that there is no point of having a device t...
Casuals don't care about raw power or better graphics, if that was the case, wii couldn't have been successful as it was, the casual mass-market just take in consideration that I-Devices + Smartphones & Tablets let them play games and for cheap
Golden Abyss is a beast, has more lenght and gives you more as a game than any 0.99 game, but average joes don't care and just follow trends, Apple says that I-Devices are the Second Coming and cheap-@ss games are bette...
"I don't see why people expect Sony to fold to the Apple market"
Because that's exactly what Apple is doing, they keep pushing hard their casual s*** in their I-POS-devices and casuals eat everything their Apple overlords say, so IF I-POS has a new "hit" replacement of angry birds, they'll promote the f*** out of it and people will take in a sec
Meanwhile the core + the nostalgic gamers buy 3DSs, close their eyes thinking that ...
It's different now, PS3 is a home console, home consoles have their space in the market a no one can take them down
Now the portable gaming market is a dying breed
I don't care about the success of the 3DS as "proof" that it's not happening, because what it's preventing N to face the same fate are their IPs, Mario, Pokemon, Zelda (+ the help of Monster Hunter now)
But as long as more casual crap has the "Angry B...
It's just a rumor, there is no proof of this and I don't think MS will do that, their cash cow is Live, they can live with used purchased games as long as people need to play online, no need to do this s***
Rare is not the same as the N64 Rare, the original crew left the company long ago, the guys who mage Goldeneye went to create Free Radical, now Crytek UK and others just leave the company, MS just bought the Brand/Name Rare
Come on, how is that trolling? I need to say that everything is cool right? Sony is not bleeding money and the lack of advertising of their new Vita System will do wonders for the new device, so much that it'll sell out, right? NO! it's not good, the company is no doing good and their new device will not become a hit, it's not my fault, it's how things are going to be if they don't change for good
It's all over... and next week with the Vita failing, damn, they sure know how to screw themselves, I mean no advertising for a new product that it's being released in a couple of days, come on!
They sure are proud of theis TV business that let them bleed so much money, s***loads of unnecessary products no one cares about, being the king of gaming for 2 consecutive generations to end up last in this one, well, it's was fun ride, as long as Apple don't buy t...
Late to the party bros! It's been like that since the beginning of this Gen :P
It's not bizarre, it's common sense applied way too late, they could have done this right after LBP1, but SCE went with this unkown new IP called Modnation Racers that totally floped and now they're releasing this game that maybe can be more successful than Modnation
Nice and all, of course better than the crap updates that didn't add s***, I'm expecting more features to be added now that Vita is coming, well I'm hoping for that :P
Timesplitters Future Perfect yeah!!!! Best FPS Ever!! :D
Trololololol
You don't know s*** about what you're talking about dumb@ss, this game is freaking big, in fact is the biggest game on PS3, just go and do some Trial Events, you'll end number 1000xxxxxth in the rank-board lol
This is what MNR should have been, build a franchise with a first game, then expand it, now it's kind of late, but I'll take it IF it's good :)
I don't see another Portable Generation from Sony honestly, it's not a good business and you don't know how much tech will evolve by that next portable gen, I think this is the last gen for portables, either Sony comes up with some Xperia + Vita kind of device in the near future or just focus on the Home Console Market
