I calculated that for a team of 15 it would be approximately 2800usd/month/each for the next two years to complete the game. So they just covered their asses for a few years!

They also get to do the game they always wanted to make with the rockstars of the industry :)

win-win!

Here's a paradoxal Nintendo game: Wonderful 69.

Hmm this actually looks pretty good. Maybe I should play the original first, though...

Yeah finally make me an RPG without a guy as a main hero who looks like he just came out of a stylist. I mean I understand Asian guys want to do make-up (ok, I don't understand it, really), but please just leave the street culture out of games.

Everything is so hip, hop or pop. Can't we just concentrate on something original instead of absorbing EVERY SINGLE THING and putting it into the game, like one of the final fantasy main artist girl said. Sometimes creativity n...

Dualshock 4 has a touchpad and two extra triggers to cover the touchpad behind the ps vita. They cannot announce all those touch-based games now for PS Vita TV, because it's coming out only in Japan, and PS4 (read= dualshock 4) will be out in February there.

It would be cool if the codec conversations were made with radios scattered around the open-world. This way, they could serve as a gameplay mechanic (instead of a nostalgic-factor) and offer you tips to your next location or reveal side-objectives.

Horrible music, bland art style, amateurish direction.

And the text said it's basically a fan fest for SRPG players.

Come on guys, you can do better :)

How can you all people be so insensitive about this big issue in many cultures and video games?

Oh wait... maybe you are the cause.

I'll wait for a PS4 + PSV2000 bundle, then the memory card prices are hopefully down again a notch. I would pay 64usd for 64gb, not a penny more. That's a gig per dollar just like in SSD harddrives.

MattS, well said!

I just watched the last Finnish Nokia guy's 20min long interview, where he explained that what you see from the outside, is just completely different what you see and feel inside a company. He very strongly stressed that people inside the company of course know much more about themselves and their industry, than outsiders (it is natural). He has a track year of 30yrs and is the "last man standing" in the old Nokia. He made one of the largest bu...

I think I get where Kojima is coming from with this design. I'm not sure if I agree, but I'm pretty sure the sexuality he uses in his works, is more or less functional and meaningful gameplay or story-wise.

I do not judge, until I see the final product.

I think it's time for MGS to move on. The tried and true concept of cutscene - gameplay - cutscene is obsolete.

I completely understand his vision of implementing storytelling inside the gameplay, rather than just directing a movie while designing a game. There's so much more we can do with games, than movies (or any other media).

Story that is built inside the gameplay allows you to explore the story better, think GTA where the story is the world (th...

Front Mission 5: Scars of War. One of the BEST games SE ever produced, the pinnacle of the series. Excellent cinematic menus and music is unbelievable. Gameplay and mechanics are fresh even still and really fast and impressive.

After Japanese Yakuza 4, I'm waiting for Yakuza 5 to hit the Japanese PSN, that game is the gangstershenmueminigameextrava ganza of the year!

Well, NHK aims to have first test broadcasts in Japan 2020 in 8K. The plausible Tokyo Olympic Games of 2020 are planned to have 8K test feed, too.

So, no, it's not 2030, it's more like 2021. What I am saying, if we invested into this technology and research it pro-actively, we could squeeze it to around 2017.

1080p took 20years to hit the market. 4K took 5yrs. So why can't 8K be done in the same or even faster? Because of political will and corpor...

I really really hope we could skip 4K and go straight to 8K. There are already 8K prototypes and that will be the "final resolution". 8K does not need any 3D or other effects, because the resolution creates a completely real "window" to another world. It's more like 4D, looks like you can touch it.

I really really want a PS Vita. I got the cash waiting, but I'm holding off, because I need to know if I can buy a new model within a year or not.

I would feel betrayed if I were to order one now, just to find few weeks later TGS news about the new 4G LTE model with double internal memory for faster multi-tasking and browsing etc.

I JUST NEED TO KNOW, Sony. Don't tease me like this. Oh please don't!

Just do it.

I'd like to have a PS4+Vita bundle, one unified global PSN, ALL previous playstation games available to play on (PSP, VITA,PSX,PS2,PS3,PS4) PS4 with some small smoothing options and maybe even 2x internal rendering etc, new IPs with strong storytelling and intuitive gameplay, exploration of what you can do with games as a media through indie games etc.

Ohhh I can go on and on!

Go Team Finland! :)

Also, classic computers spotted, respect!

So we get three games and at least three sequels. Within seven years a new system will be launched and new IPs will come out and yet another rotation begins..?

I see this as a compromise of the suits and developers. Not a bad deal, but not ideal either.

Three years to develop an AAA title sounds reasonable. Can't rush inspiration, but maybe these games lack of it as default :P
