It makes me wonder if they are waiting to release some info on upcoming Japanese-market-centric games at TGS. It would make sense because they would gain positive fervor in their home territory.
What exactly does that mean when Sony says "Do we have an RPG in the Works right now? No."? That's the last thing they want to be saying when it comes to their software lineup. Then again, it doesn't make sense in the other way that they actually have many RPG's lined up. SOE has a few MMO's planned, such as The Agency, and DC Online. I'm just wondering what they mean by that statement when in actuality they have many RPG's lined up in the next year or so.
I have no idea what you said and I am not wasting the time to hit "show comment" so I can see your drivel, so you might as well not even bother talking to me. You're on ignore and you will stay that way until you can grow a few brain cells and interact with other users in a useful manner.
Don't they mean to say "Redmond Giant"? Or is there another meaning behind that phrase, maybe implying that MS is a giant tree?
This is a game that every gamer needs to have played at least once in their lifetime.
1UP: You're not too upset about the announcement? You don't think it's very pressing?
RE: Again, you've got 23 exclusives already on the PS3 from a first-party perspective. If Microsoft wants to back up the dump truck full of money, there's not a whole lot that can be done there. Certainly, Final Fantasy XIII is still coming on PS3, so it's not like it's not on your system anymore. It's being developed first for the PS3, so your experience is probably going to be better on the PS...
It's a very well-written interview, and rather informative too.
Also, I think I understand what they mean by "2008 is the year of the Playstation". They have all these ideas and exclusive titles that are coming out, not just this year, but next year. However, it's certain that many of them didn't or won't fully come to fruition until this year, many towards the end of the year (fall / winter release announcements). 2008 can be known as the year when many people can see...
SR: We have a long-term strategy that we follow. I know you hate to continue to hear me say it, but we're always looking at opportunities. Do we have an RPG in the works right now? No. Are we always looking at that opportunity? Absolutely. To get to the root of your question, are we concerned about the fact that Final Fantasy XIII is not only on PS3? No. That's why we always have a long-term strategy that we're working on. Jack made that very clear in the press conference.
1UP: Y...
No, you don't have to pay the netflix fee. All movies through XBL are free.
You can watch any of the view it now movies for free, whereas most rentals on the PS3 and 360 will cost you money.
And they already have a decent selection for having launched the store just a couple days ago. You can tell they worked on this a while before now.
I wonder if we will ever know the resolution of the HD videos on the PSN store?
also: lol @ this comment:
"As for Netflix…I’d rather trim my toenails with a Bowie knife than sit through a Netflix streamed movie over my Xbox 360."
Yeah, I don't get all the talk of bribes and payoffs. I think that because this game's expense was becoming very large, I think SE just needed to get this game to the systems in regions where they know for a fact it will recoup all the money the spent to make it.
Still doesn't excuse MS from this whole thing though.
keep it up vega
At the very least they need a system that can play old PS2 / PSone games...
You are using the NYTimes as your rebuttal?
Come on guys! Another year and a half?
I think you would probably get a raise
Seriously, that's all people really are associating with E3 2008 now. The only other noteworthy thing from MS was the XBL / Dashboard revamp.
Continue hitting disagree without explaining why you think my statement is wrong; that's all you trolls really are good for anyway...
