I hope that this doesn't delay the release of this game or cause it to fall through altogether; i'm really looking forward to playing this.
If Universal really wanted to increase their revenue, they would go format neutral and release titles on both formats. Then they could truly see what the consumers would like to buy because they would have both versions of the company's product to choose from.
And I don't think i'll be hopping back on the bandwagon anytime soon. The Madden franchise stopped being revolutionary YEARS ago, and with EA's cash-grabbing antics in full swing, I won't be supporting this year's version. Plus, it's inexcusable that Sony can release full 1080p sports games @ 60fps, and yet somehow EA, with all their vast financial resources and development expertise cannot manage to work out a solution.
He even stated in the article that Universal believes that HD-DVD is pretty much dead without their support, basically relegating the company to a life-support system while they rake in extra cash. I really see no other benefit of Universal continuing to support HD-DVD when (like it or not), Blu-Ray is pulling ahead in the race. Not only that, but almost every news story we see is of some sort of Blu-Ray "victory" and also the fact that this year's biggest High-Definition movie rele...
The PS3 hasn't even reached its 1 year mark yet, and while the results thus far are rather disappointing, it's still premature and a bit ignorant to call the PS3 a "failure". We haven't even hit the holiday season of 2007, let alone brought ourselves into 2008, so I think people need to not make such quick judgement calls.
Although, I guess it gives the fanboys something to do because they really have trouble facing reality...
these "news stories" are getting really old. They are almost as bad as "MGS 2 360 CUZ MY DOG SAID SO" rumors that were getting the "OK" from all the fanboys.
I digress, though, and will say that things are finally starting to look upwards for the PS3; I can't wait to see what this holiday season brings us! All we have to do now is wait for the final -US- sales numbers for July, and we'll see what the "price drop" netted us.
Ed...
Don't you have exciting 360 news articles to gloat in, instead of trolling PS3-related news?
Or is that your sole purpose for existing on this website?
Furthermore, do you really expect anyone to take what you say seriously when you have such a one-sided bias? You might as well take a picture with the words "FANBOY" stamped across your forehead.
I saw this delay coming a mile away, what with all the troubles Rockstar is having with Take-...
One of the first posts that i've seen from you in a while that wasn't completely one-sided against Sony.
Sony saw the potential in Ninja Theory after they were dropped from Microsoft's development roster; it's good to know that all this time really looks to be giving us our first AAA game on the PS3 this year.
BTW, what was that Kung-Fu game that NT developed? I remember it being rather fun, and was interested to see that it didn't do very well back when it came out.
It's just like Eurogamer reviewing a Japanese copy of Folksoul and then panning it. It's really unprofessional to review something that isn't localized or completed yet simply to get a jump start on being the first to review something.
If they are so adamant about concentrating on the "easy to develop for" 360 version, why the hell does it still have these problems? It's a case of crappy development, not system shortcomings.
This game looked good to me when it was first shown 2 years ago, but now it's just "meh". I'll keep playing Burnout and Wip3out for my blazing racing fix.
Final Fantasy WHO? That trailer was simply stunning in its presentation, and has really ramped up my hype level for this game. I know the graphics will be good too, because i've seen early gameplay footage and even at that early state it was looking pretty nice. Can't wait for the first great RPG to hit to the PS3, and many others to continue to trickle in.
This will be one of THE top reasons to own a PS3 this year. Man, this game looks simply stunning and to see it in motion and still looking that good is definitely impressive. Thanks, Incog, for making such great games throughout the years, and for many more to come in the future!
Can't wait to play this game. That screenshot that was posted here is probably the creepiest of the bunch!
Also, it's nice to know that no matter which console you get this for, achievements will be available on both; HOME trophies and XBL gamerpoints.
Nice to see Rockstar is taking the extension of interactivity in games vs. real life seriously, even if it's just this little detail.
What i'm really hoping for is great selection in the radio content, and not a bunch of licensed, watered down popular BS. They've not let me down so far, but i'll keep my fingers crossed nonetheless.
Anyway, as I was saying, there are many games that use limited color palettes, but that doesn't make them bad games. Take Resistance, for example. That game didn't have a very wide range of color but what it did worked for the game's atmosphere and general art direction. Same with what Killzone 2 is looking to be like. The KZ2 videos showcased war on the overly-industrialized Helghast planet, plus it was at night, so everything looks gray and dreary and war-torn. Again, that's just the art st...
There are many games besides GoW that use or will be using a "limited color pallette" in the engine. It's all in the art direction and environmental design. Besides, GoW is a game set in a battlezone environment, so it's not exactly going to look like a day at the beach.
This is my last bubble on this article, otherwise i'd be able to continue this discussion past this point.
I already beat RE 4 too many times to revisit it (again) on another Nintendo console. Played both the GCN and the PS2 versions, so i'm pretty much RE'd out. HOWEVER, Umbrella Chronicles looks interesting to me, as i've always liked the "House of the Dead"-style zombie games, but hated the Survivor series on the PSone. The technology just wasn't there to make a compelling game, so hopefully they can pull it off with this one.
This is what the Wii needs; less gimmicky p...
This is going to be a must-have title when it ships, and i'm so happy to be able to play it on the PS3 as I never got the chance to play Half-Life 2 when it was fresh.
Glad that valve is adding so much content to the package for such a value. Now if we could only get past the "Next-Gen" pricing syndrome for consoles, we would have a true steal on our hands.
This story deserves approval just because it has to do with massive mammaries...
