well, if FF13 weren't looking better than LO, it would be rather disappointing, considering it's coming out much later, had a bigger budget (I assume), team (as they required the help of the Versus team at one point) and time.

I think that the real comparison is when you look at how LO looked compared to games released at the time of its release, and how FF13 compares to the games that are out by the time it is out. To me, LO looked quite nice, but was filled with invisible walls...

If my ISP (Videotron in Quebec) dares to send me a warning about something as trivial as this, I will unleash such terrible vengeance, that generations yet unborn will cry out in anguish (yep, from KZ2), as I pay them over 150$ a month for my internet connection alone, despite having to go through their stupid bandwidth limits (190GB), slow speed (50mbps max, but usually get 1 or 2mbps) and unreliable service.

Well, it does seem like a nice TV, but 11k, that seems a bit too expensive. Also, is this a 240Hz or 120Hz only? And does it support /d like the mitsubishi ones? I mean, if I'm (or anyone else) going to pay 11k for a 55" TV, it better prove to be somewhat future proof (atleast for the foreseeable future), don't you think?

hmmm, is it the same that can be bought at Epic Weapons? Or is the Capcom one different or more official? The same question applies to the one sold at true sword actually, are they all the same one, or not? And if they are indeed the same sword, why is Capcom selling it for more than everyone else?

wasn't this game in the "won't go to 360 list" we had a few days ago? Or am I wrong?

anyway, good for 360 only owners I guess

actually, truth be told, if all of these great studios worked together to work on one single game, it would be one huge waste of talent. Let's face it, their styles don't all work together, Team ICO and GG? Really? The studio responsible for creating unique gaming experiences through unique story-telling and silent charcaters and the studio responsible for KZ, a great shooter that pretty much is a blend of every single FPS-formulas of the past decade, which also to be co-starred by Rico? How ...

if you're a student, you can get 7 (HP or Pro) for free depending on your school, if not, you can still get either for 50$.

The PSPGo will die, not because of the lack of software price cut, but rather because of shoddy work from Sony's quality control. Buy the PSN version of either GTA : Stories, tell me if it's playable. I dare you.

I have both, on UMD and the PSN version (aswell as an ISO), both the ISO and UMD versions run bette on my PSP-2000 than the PSN version on either my Go or my 2000. In other words, the PSN version sucks. And I'm not the only one having this issue.

MS might be taking a loss on every system sold, however, the 360 still has the highest attach rate of the 3 consoles at the moment (or I haven't seen reports stating the contrary yet). If they can somehow flood the market with a low price point, and still keep a decent attach rate, it will still be profitable.

there is no evidence that the problem is caused by Steam, or that VALVe could have done anything to it. He claims it took months before the patch came out for Bionic Commando, maybe BC's developer is responsible for the delay.

I would really appreciate it if the "news" on N4G had more solid argument sometimes, rather than a simple statement that isn't really backed up by anything.

well, it's been an awesome 15 years to be a gamer, let's hope the next 15 will be as good or even better. The playstation family has really grown and continues to do so to this day.

Regarding the list, while some games seem to be missing, while some should not be there in my opinion, it's still a good one. One sad thing though, and I don't know if I'm to blame the list or reality, but there's not a single PSP game there.

Well, thank you for your respectful comment. And yeah, for the price, maybe I got carried away after seeing it at my local Futureshop going for 40$ on X360, therefor thinking it was the new price and not a temporary price drop caused by the black friday (like in the US). I also saw this article on N4G about the price in the UK having received a significant drop aswell, sorry, my mistake.

Have a nice day.

Well, for one, I'm glad you took the time to explain your point, rather than giving a stealth disagree, something that seems to be too common here on N4G.

As for the fact that ACiT is twice as big as ToD, I'm willing to believe you, however, I'd add that in the past, we've seen expansion being bigger than the original game they're based on. WH40K:DoW:DC being a huge improvement over the original game, Red Alert 2 : YR (from my picture you might guess I'm a fan) almost doubled the...

Some select PSP titles are driving the overall PSP sales, mostly here in the US and Europe where Monster Hunter has yet to be a real system seller.

This has been the story of the PSP since it's birth, a game, usually a console spin-off like GTA:LCS, KH:BBS or FF7:CC, is announced, and all over the forums you see people saying they might buy a PSP for that one game. They feel the need to play these games since they are related to popular franchises.

Now, if you can p...

you just pointed out why Sony will not make it happen. If anything, you will need a PSP connected to the PS3 to run the game on your PS3.

yay! an UMD add-on that will make the Go bulky! The only good thing about the Go is that, unlike my 2000 (and the 1000 it replaced), it can fit in my pocket, but not anymore, oh the joy.

seriously, I guess it can be good for Go-only owners, since some games are not on the store, but I doubt it will be a good seller.

L4D2 isn't any different than most sequels people have been buying for a while, it's not a new phenomenon and it won't go away. While KZ2 was a huge improvement over KZ1 and was built on a totally new kickass engine, the same cannot be said for Ratchet and Clank Future ToD and ACiT. UC2 is also built on the same engine as it's predecessor and while it is an awesome game, it is to UC:DF what L4D2 is to L4D, tweaks and new content. The same can be said about Gears, GoW 1 and 2, Advance Wars to ...

It has to be balanced, otherwise IW would remove it, just like leaning.

Can it survive? yes.

Can it survive without the Western developpers? Yes.

In this generation, there has been a blend of both cultures, we're seeing japanese shooters, which are very similar to western ones, we're seeing RPGs, which are somewhat more ressembling the JRPGs than the old fashioned western ones. Action games like DMC are seeing competition from western developers in the form of Dante's inferno and GoW, survival horror saw RE's domination challenged by EA...
