my understanding is the MS took a big hit from Windows Vista failing, but their Xbox side of things did well.
Nintendo would sill be winning relatively. Like they may have lost 66% but that would still put them above the others because they are so far ahead. This I think is a major worry though for gamers as so many Wii games are in development and people are running from the console in droves.
All I can think of is that article Wii 2 to Cause Industry Crash ( http://www.gameplayer.com.a...
luck about multiformat games then, hey
It would also be nice if Valve got around to Half-Life 3... or even just episode 3.
Screw Left 4 Dead
Some gut feeling I had with Far Cry 2. It was still a good game, but you know it was being held back by the fact it had to function on consoles as well as PC
They make a good point though that if you started gaming for the first time during this decade, and especially the last half of it, you would be wondering what all the fuss is about id.
There are a hell of a lot of good engines out there now that weren't in existence when id was in a world of its own. id tech 5 will have to be something very special indeed to knock off the likes of CryEngine and RAGE
from the word choice in that interview at the end of the article it certainly seems like it is still a long way off. I wonder if it will even be this generation?
How little id has achieved this decade. They really have lived off an awesome reputation rather than stacks of good games
I wonder if you can take it on disc and hack it over to the PS3?
KZ2 engine is proprietary, isn't it? Which the list ignored
Red Faction blows Battlefield out of the water
So much goes into the creation of a logo as important as this.
There is no way it wasn't deliberate.
The hidden meaning behind it, however, we may never know.
Funny article, funny stuff.
I would take an age filtration process, so you can bar people who are under 20 from being aloud to connect to your game
Looks very interesting, can't wait to see how it all works.
Very true about not being able to find games online for the lesser known games. You have to wonder why some of the developers bother with it. I saw that Just Cause 2 has no multiplayer... good. I'll stick to CoD online thankyou
I don't think the article is about a epeen comp: it is actually analyzing the figures and suggesting paths for improvement.
The article is simply comparing the facts listed by the two companies themselves.
It would seem to me to be quite a good analysis of the two services. It takes a shot at neither of them and actually shows how both are quite good, only suggesting that Sony needs to sharpen their direction a little to begin making inroads.
While I am sure there will be users here who turn it into flameage, the article itself is quite level headed I thought.
All it is doing is explaining why the games didn't quite make the top 10, not saying they are bad.
The reasonings seem sound enough to me, although I wasn't there and din't play any of the games so who am i to argue anyway
It was not that he was unimpressed. It that they weren't impressive enough to crack the top 10.
Hence the close but no cigar imagery
are you saying that nintendo and Sony did actually sell more consoles that the year previous, and that MS didn't. Or just coming up with random unrelated numbers?
