One of my favorite songs from Metal Gear Solid: "The Best is Yet to Come..."
I know that kind of feeling. :) I bought my PS3 phat with the MGS4 bundle. So I got to be part of that huge sales jump in June of last year.
WOW.... go back and read the title to the article. (8/24-8/30) The PS Slim launched on 9/1. So these sales don't include the PS Slim.
Well it should be interesting to compare this week to next week. This is ( or should be) Sony's low point in Japan. And next week (should) be Sony's high point. Any guesses for next week sales?
@1.3 I agree that putting the 360 before the genesis and N64 is dumb. Now I made my own list and put it on YouTube. And yes the 360 makes my top 10 at number 10. I put the PS3 at no. 9. But at least I admit that they are close. I just put the PS3 first because of personal preference. The PS1 should NOT be this far back....it was my number 1. Time for BIG BOSS (see avatar) to snap some necks! You can say what you want about the PS3 or 360, but when you go after the PS1 this gets personal! >...
I have to disagree with that. Halo really helped the FPS genre, however, they should have innovated MORE with the other games. The 1st halo was very innovative. But then everybody (including Bungie themselves to an extent) copied halo 1.
Jack: that kind of statement is typical of people who simply cant even begin to comprehend other people's opinions. You simply don't understand what the person is saying so you tell them to shut up and hope no one calls you out.
Personally I liked the life bar. Regenerating health is ok to some EXTENT. You should not be able to heal back all of your health and it should be a slower process. Having the screen changer color and stuff was a novelty at first, but now it is annoying. In any ...
"MGS4 takes up just shy of 30GB. It barely needs the dual-layer blu-ray. By my count, even by leaving in all of the uncompressed audio, it would only require 4 disks on DVD."
The costs for the developer to put it on 4 disks would cost more than just putting it on one disk. The main reason that MGS4 didn't got Multi is probably because nobody wanted to spend the time and money to put it on 4 dvd's/
Valkyria Cronicals is definitely a must buy for any RPG fan.
Ya you don't need to be a fanboy. You can be fair, or just a fan on PS3. Or whatever you want.
Oh Please. 100 dollars= 10 pizzas, or 2 games. I would like to have 10 more pizzas wouldn't you. Besides Yahoo! Answers exploded when the PS3 price dropped. I saw at least 10 people on there saying they wanted a slim. Then on my YouTube videos I had at least 5 comments of people saying they would get the slim (as of yesterday), and I'm no YouTube big shot either. So I talked to 15 people who will buy the slim yesterday.
I'd prefer Kingdom Hearts 3...but we'll see.
Well a lot of 360 fanboys do it too. Any reasonable gamer can see that fanboys on both sides do this stuff all the time. Insomnic also gets away with less abuse because it has been developing only for Sony for such a long time that many people think it is 1st party. Also they never call out other systems, so there is not as much hate tword them.
As for C and D both were terrible articles and neither should ever have been approved. I believe I left a comment on the last one saying...
yes emma...don't know how that slipped me.
I don't know man, but "Game Industry News" sounds real offical...they must be right.
(obviously sarcastic here people.)
But really (no sarcasm) what kind of article is this?!? He basically copied the other article and just added stuff like "and then he said..... after that he said.... then he thought....". I mean really, what kind of an article is that?
Well happyface. Sony lost all of the money they made from PS1+PS2 console sales. They still have billions of dollars from games sales from the PS1+2. Sony didn't make most of their money from PS console sales, it came from game sales for the consoles. Just for example: Every copy of Gran Torismo or Uncharted ever sold made sony money.
What is with the huge uptick of PS3 hate going on these last few days?
I gotta say MGS2 takes it for me. As if the plot wasn't strange enough!
I really gotta feel bad for Otacon though. Sniper wolf, Eva (yes I know she was just his sister.), AND Namomi. "Why does this always happen to me."
This should not have been approved, you people are just making excuses. Think of it this way. Yes I know there are PS3 fanboy articles as bad as this that get approved each week, but that doesn't mean it is ok to approve this! That is like saying "oh that guy's racist so that means I can be too". NO THAT'S NOT AN EXCUSE! This type of article is wrong no matter who it supports, that is what a real gamer would see.
He'll get what's coming to him.
