I have read the comments on "well it'd get there" on lack of rpgs. Why should you have to wait? Why put so much resource and time and money into 1 or 2 titles this generation? You know that Square-Enix won't want to make another game for ps3 when the next-gen arrive. They want to push the envelope and they think that better graphics will sell better and have not gotten off that mentality since ff7. If you ask me Square tarnished their name and rep by putting crap since ff7 and ...
You guys are a bunch of misinformed jumped to conclusions lot. All 3 companies started working on the next console for at least a year. MS maybe 2 years. They already have the design and architect and what the components are going to be. Just because you release later doesn't mean that you have the more powerful console. If that were the case you would be forcing the developers to use new dev kits as the prior ones were obslete. This gen sony put all it's marbles on cell and blu-ray and...
You forget that the X360 has 10 MB embedded eDRAM which gives it the boost it needs. The memory bandwith for the eDRAM gives the X360 an extra 256 GB/s while the faster ram on ps3 only gives like 22.56 gb/s. Numbers are fairly close, might be off by a hair or two.
I like how the sony defenders draw ff13 quicker than Billy the Kid. So you say that one game that could suck (ala ff12, x-2, etc) is worth a bunch of great, maybe not as famous, rpg's? Clearly a fanboy comment. I stopped caring about ff series after the x-2 disaster. I haven't even touched 12 and I had to cheat my way through x-2 and kh2 because they offered no "innovation" and crappy story. I used to be the biggest ff fan and bought the strat guide even for ff9 if that tells y...
I'd like to see the puddin where insomniac is seperate from sony. I call utter bs on that one. I was only going to comment on how it would be cool if they make a Shenmue 3 or better yet, Skies of Arcadia 2, loved the GC version!, but too many sony trolls infesting this site.
I don't understand when the article clearly says games and people still hang on to that blu-ray. blu-ray isn't doing so hot so I highly doubt it is that. I am really hoping for Four Horseman of Apocalypse. I believe it will come out for X360 and Games for Windows. I have been talking with the owners of "Four Horsemen Entertainment" who own the ip and that is the general direction he was telling me. A small company that already has a lot of the game already done and with Microso...
I like how the sony defenders are so quick to point out the faults of another company when sony is just as bad or worse! The infamous sony contract of "we'll pay for half of development costs but we get majority of the profits and you still have to pay us back for money we put in and sony gets to keep the IP." Also sony charges more for royalties for publishing on their system. You CAN NOT blame the developers to make a game that is:
1. Easier to develop for.
For the comment being on Inf. Und. being a timed exclusive, you my friend are on some serious drugs. It is being co-funded and co-published by MGS. Dream on dude.
I agree. People need to stop trashing games and consoles because they are following a general hatred for MS. People nowdays have no personal ideas and follow others blindly, like david koresh and michael travessar. I like the Xbox because it tailors to what I do and need. No sense to try to change my mind or flame me because I like a particular brand. Like some of the above posters, go cry over in the ps3 side and leave the 360 to those with 360's.
This site is just getting plain ridiculous. Such a sony fanboy site makes me sick. I can understand one standing behind their purchase but to purposely go on other threads just to flame is absolutely childish and retarded. I say MS should release one, but only release in NA and EU and everywhere else except in Japan. For once let the Japanese gamers have to buy it on ebay from the States and let us have the opportunity to sell it to them at such inflated prices. Serves them right.
They already have a Halo 0 or a prequal. Do a LIVE search and you will find it.
Midway DOES NOT OWN EPIC. They are licensing the rights to unreal only. Epic owns Epic. Just like Atari licensed unreal prior. Microsoft AND Epic went in to CREATE GOW so they both own the IP. Just like he said, it's up to MS because they make the other half of the duo.
Yeah she's pretty hot alright. Def. would help keep her warm up there in Montreal.
You forgot to mention NES and Gameboy (Color). What's funny is that MG and snake first appeared on a Nintendo console and you don't hear NES fanboys whine and complain. That is all I hear from fony fanboys, whine, whine, whine. They should step up to the plate and take that whine to who deserves it, fony for shafting their gamers.
The thing is that Microsoft owns Halo and the IP of GOW. sony owns god of war but only partial ip of final fantasy, however much stock they have in them. Still SE can choose to sell stock let's say to Microsoft and have them own more shares than sony. Only reason why FF hasn't jumped ship is that sony owns somewhere about 18 percent. SE is already sick of sony and if it weren't for their shares, they would have made the jump as well. Look at Last Remnant, it could be called Final Fantasy...
So just because he spouts something with absolutely nothing to back it up, just his opinion, ps3 will be the clear winner? What on his good lucks, what?!
And Europe. I can recall COUNTLESS people waiting for Halo 2 in Europe. What Microsoft needs to do is make fps a hit in japan. SE tried that with FF7 DoC but that didn't do too well, stateside either.
btw even Hideo Kojima says that it was TECHNICALLY POSSIBLE to run MGS4 on 360. Haze is coming for 360. If there was any SERIOUS potential, I'm sure game developers would take advantage of cell. You can put anything on paper and those numbers state what it could "THEORETICALLY" do. NOTHING EVER PERFORMS TO THEIR MAX!
Maybe if ps3 had the system architecture to fully utilize the cell, maybe. But they don't, what a suprise! The ps3 will only run 60% max of what it can do ever. All fony did was slap the cell, rsx together without even strategizing how effective it would be. The rsx is a big joke. nVidia came out with two series gpu's before the ps3 came out. ps3 is a bottleneck system. Imagine a funnel. Great potential up top but then slowly trickles out the bottom. Low memory bandwith. Let's put i...
I liked how Bill Gates stated that the next Xbox gpu wouldn't be that much beter than the rsx. The Xenos is ALREADY better than rsx. It has UNIFIED architecture and 10 MB embedded eDRAM and access to 512 mb of ram. What an idiot. Anyone who dabbles in PC gaming knows that a good gpu makes all the difference. That is telling someone that there is no reason to upgrade from a "stripped down 7800 sli with only 256 mb of ram" to a 9800 or let alone an 8800 because there is only a ma...
