Yes I am dubious about the epilepsy claim. I mean, they just put a warning on stuff like that. And how, possibly, could wipeout be any worse than FLASHING STROBE LIGHTS on TV programmes (which come with a warning) or strobes in clubs? I think the reason they have not denied this claim is because they are having some developmental issues on the PS3 (not able to hit 60fps, or not able to run at full 1080p, which they have advertised heavily) and don't want to admit it.
In other news, they are ADDING SPLITSCREEN to this game (only 2-player, but still welcome), as well as reverse versions of all the tracks, new ships and a choice of heads up displays! Split-screen is worth the delay to this game IMO.
Edit: They're adding trophies too! Almost forgot. This is surely going to be one stand-out title.
it's exactly the same as the first game, with new environments and split-screen. In fact the only thing that's changed is they've added a monster truck. What I hoped to see was DIFFERENT VEHICLES, as in, you unlock not just skins for your vehicles, but vehicles with different stats: a faster yet worse handling rally car, a slower yet more stable bike etc. I never completed motorstorm 1 because it just got BORING, you just did the same exact races again and again with slightly tougher AI.
He is crazy!!! Multi-kill LittleBigPlanet Sony lineup sell more 2nd party games...
I loved it. I also think it was great for having up to 7 player multiplayer (though I only ever played 4 max). Great party game.
Another shooter.... another online shooter... I am happy with warhawk ffs. NO ONE will be playing warhawk after all these hundreds of shooters come out so I won't be able to enjoy my favourite online game :( I thought this was going to be a new, original, genre breaking game. Guess I thought wrong.
Hmm... I'm going to get tired of a resistance-ratchet-resistance- ratchet cycle. I want to see a new IP! Resistance was the first current-gen game I played and I thought it was awesome, so come on insomniac, make a new IP because it worked out for you last time! (Come to think of it they _did_ just open up a new studio... hmmm...)
Yeah but we shouldn't compare this to MGS4 in the same way that we shouldn't compare forza 2 to GT5. (Actually it seems that both GT5 and Splinter Cell will release at about the same time...)
I will just say the time delay from the US getting content to the EU getting content has been SIGNIFICANTLY reduced recently. Pixeljunk eden demo is meant to be out next week, along with the full game (worldwide simultaneous release). I didn't expect siren to be released so soon here.
That said, there is some bureaucracy that we don't know about and THAT is the reason these games/demos are released later. It's not localisation in terms of language translations and suchlike, so it...
WE ALL KNOW home is not coming out this year. Sony has never said home will come out this year (but they said last year LOL). They HAVE said that the OPEN BETA will come out this year. Which tells me that home is not coming out this year.
I've seen a lot of positive reports from people in the beta at how amazing home WILL BE. But can I ask, if home were to release today in its current state, how well-received do you think it would be? I imagine it is still glitch-ridden and feature-lacking. But I'd like someone to tell me otherwise.
COD4 of 2009 :P
he said they are "looking into adding these features into pixeljunk monsters" so it's not guaranteed, but likely
Unfortunately Sony liverpool are in hospital now as they were suffering from epileptic fits... get well soon team!
It's very likely this game IS one of the other two, but you never know.
This is REALLY bad news. This game is awesome, I want it now, and it is finished, but I can't play it because it is blisteringly fast and bright and WOW? That's why I WANT the game! They are going to have to seriously change the graphical style of the game now in order to tone it down. And that's going to take some time. And it's going to be worse off because of it. If you suffer from epilepsy, DON'T PLAY WIPEOUT! Surely wipeout can't be worse than any nightclub you might go into? I hate thes...
sold for the right price.... in the us. I realise that the UK version includes VAT and possibly other taxes but it's still way more expensive.
That said, should I get this game? At 7/10 I think I'll need someone's recommendation.
What I don't like is the way previews always need to take the same tone, "The graphics look awesome, but let's pay our attention to gameplay. Yes the gameplay is good, but...". If this game had none of the hype attached to it, and the graphics only became this good once the game was released and weren't quite up to that standard at the moment, you would read previews such as, "Killzone 2 looks OK but for us it also played quite well and smoothly too", and when the game rel...
No game takes 10 years. They could not possibly have predicted the future limitations of hardware 10 years ago. The concept was thought up 10 years ago, sure, but actual full-time development could not properly have started until they knew what console it was going to be on and the specs of that console.
FFXIII going to 360 was 360 news. I don't care about 360 news because I don't have a 360. Looking at Sony's E3, it could have been better, but it wasn't bad at all. We saw Killzone 2 multiplayer, more littlebigplanet (awesome as always), infamous gameplay, 2 major new game announcements for ps3, loads of PSN and PSP announcements, motorstorm 2 was looking more polished, resistance 2 looked gorgeous in places (ugly in others but it can be improved upon hopefully). So as I say, it wasn't bad.
