Why would you pay for three gaming consoles? I seriously have never seen the logic in this when you have bills and possibly a family to provide for. I had a hard enough time paying for my PS3 by itself, much less three of the same type of entertainment. Why blow your money in that direction?
"They showed off features they couldn't do."
Yet, what it can't do YET. That is what he is trying to tell you, but you keep skipping over it for some reason. I have said it many times and I will continue to say it, Home is a wonderful product for its price. Since that price is $0, no one has a right to complain in my opinion. When/if we start to pay for it, then you can complain in a profession manner.
"...so we really can't just make it available only for the PS3 without some sort of incentive."
I am pretty sure that is what they meant to say.
I should hope they don't count them out. They buried them for two generations in a row, and they could do it again. Microsoft on the other hand...
Is anyone else having problem with Home not loading correctly and/or freezing? It seems to be in conjunction with Killzone 2 randomly disconnecting from the PSN Network. Not sure it is on my end or not, but it seems to be only recently it has become a problem. Anyone else experiencing this?
But do you remember how popular Backstreet Boys and N'Sync were back in the 90's? Where are they now? Gimmicks, although entertaining or not, are only meant to last until the consumer gets bored of them. Then they are thrown away for something more shiny.
It appears you are the only comment on this article worth replying to, so I will add that not only does the second look fantastic, but it is my most anticipated game so far this year. That is how much I enjoyed the first one.
I am deeply hoping for a Twisted Metal game to be shown. It's about time we see some car combat on this system.
I'd hate to be in your shoes right now.
:p
While I agree marketing would have helped it sell more, I believe it was the difference in controls that drove people away. It seems these days that if it does not follow the same formula as every other game, it will not attract consumers. In short, if it had COD style controls, it would have sold 4 million for sure.
Both LittleBigPlanet and Killzone 2 went gold well before their actual release. It seems to be a reoccurring thing with games published by Sony these days.
"I dont how this year is the year of the ps3 when it is still getting outsold worldwide by the xbox 360."
Hardware Sales, 04th Apr 2009:
X360 - 149,133
PS3 - 143-218
Indeed it is technically outselling it, but not nearly enough for Microsoft to claim 'winner' either. Wouldn't you say?
Back on topic: Nintendo isn't stupid. After being the champions for two generations, and then being forced to the ground for two more after th...
I will answer your question, since he wasn't able to. Japan buys handhelds because Japan is a mobile society. There are many cases where a large family is crammed into a small house with only one TV. Handhelds make it possible for children to play what they want, when they want, and not be disturbed by those who want to watch the television. Since Japanese programs are extremely popular with the natives, junior can sit in the corner and play his Monster Hunter while mom and dad watch the dram...
Sony and Apple make great bedfellows. ;)
You beat me to it.
"yes, it has english subs/dub (the movie, the demo doesn't)
otherwise i wouldn't have bought it"
Are you sure it does? I have read that it does not include English subtitles.
I didn't notice any. Just because you didn't like it doesn't make it flawed you know. Personally I thought it was great and is one of my favorites on the PS3. But that doesn't mean I am going to state it was flawless. Learn to be more open.
"The fact is, the game was complete, on the disc, the download was nothing more than a key to unlock the content, it's paying for something you already have."
So you work for Capcom then? Well then tell us exactly how the coding went into the download, to put our minds at ease.
"And North Koreans love Kim Jong-il
It's a sick world we live in."
Americans voted for Bush and re-elected him too. Indeed a "sick world".
I think the point that is trying to be made here is that the name "50 cent" shouldn't even had gotten famous, much less a game being made using that name. Well, that point should be made anyway. :p
