I have really tried to stay out of this Killzone 2 review fiasco, but I just can't anymore.
There are a few things that need to be addressed:
EDGE is widely regarded by the gaming community (read: not fanboys) as being a relatively mature and thoughtful publication to accuse them of being biased towards a specific platform is lunacy. Having follwed the mag for good few years I can honestly say that they are one of the few mags that give an honest and carefully thoug...
Do they even need to do PAL, SECAM, and NTSC checks now?
I mean the content is displayed in 480i and up, then again I have no serious idea how it works.
I totally agree, SCEE have dropped the ball on this one, the remix was used in other territories to gather hype for the release of SF4. Now to be honest, what would be the point of buying it? It will be far too close SF4 release and no one will want to buy it.
Which is a shame as it is a great game.
...
Well, it doesn't surprise me in the least. Gqmestation had a fantastic selection of retro games before they were bought over by game. What do you think happened to these games and consoles?
Scrapped.
It is such a shame as there are loads of gems there.
360 will dominate this year......
mmmmmmm
the Wii says hi.
Excellent, lets hope the tabloid witch hunt dies a death now.......
This blows, there is no need for this game to take as long to appear on the EU store: it's everywhere else.
What the hell can be keeping them?
They will have lost numerous SF fans as once SF4 is released, no one will care.
For shame sony, for shame....
I agree, it will be a massive ubdertaking, but, they do have the engine from the last game, so hopefully it will appear sooner rather than later.
I do hope it appears on the ps3, so they can enjoy a fantastic game like this
The only cancer in the industry are people like you that cannot allow others to have an opinion that differs from yours. Blind, idiotic fools like yourself and a few others with persecution complexes.
Just because they have different viewpoints does not make them biased, they just have a different view than you.
People like yourself need to grow up, a place like n4g should be a productive and fun place where gaming is celebrated, not this fanboy nonsense.
But your biased vitriol is perfectly acceptable?
Hypocrisy at it's finest right there. Go back under the rock you crawled from.
You guys are unreal, such a childish and immature way to act at the loss of so many jobs, purely because their opinion did not fit with your sony tinted view of the world.
Newsflash, 1UP wasn't biased, YOU were.
Utter fools, the both of you...
I'm sorry but you honestly think they were all biased? What happened today? Did someone take your lunch money? Or was somebody mean to you today? Not get enough cuddles from mommy? Or too many from Daddy?
It is utter nonsense to think that they did not provide a relatively balanced view on both consoles. Granted some decisions may have been up for debate, but that can be said for both sides of the so called 'console wars' crap.
You are just behaving like a petulant c...
DING! DING! DING! Here's another one celebrating the fall of a great website purely because they didn't like what they wrote.
How very mature.
Seriously? Need to be taught a lesson? I really need to ask, are you handicapped or something? Does the special bus pick you up and take you to the fun place with the ball pit?
The only idiot is a person that is under the misguided impression that there is a great conspiracy against sony and the PS3, I hate to break it to you, there isn't. Show me definitive proof that MS was handing money over too these sites, I'll tell ya something, there isn't any proof because there isn't one...
by the childish, immature attitudes that some of the 'members' here are showing, to celebrate in the downfall of a company just because they did not share the same opinions as you?
I've been here way before any of the serious titfortat fanboy nonsense started and the comments section has has turned to utter crap. Regardless of your personal feelings towards 1UP, and personally, I think all those who thought that 1up was biased towards Ms are talking out their backsides, the loss ...
All podcasts and the 1UP show have been cancelled.
Besides, they laid off the two producers of the 1UP show.
I do agree that ninty should just stop the pandering: if they are going to abandon the hardcore, they may aswel admit it. I for one, don't mind.
I know what the wii is and so should everyone by now.
Bubbles to you bud
well, the thing is, the iPhone isn't designed to be in direct competition with the PSP.
As a game device it is designed for short term gameplay, that's all, a quick game of something to pass the time on the bus, whatever.
That's where the pull is: mobile phone gaming is huge, the iPhone does it very well. The average person has no problem using the wee games on their phone to pass a few minutes.
Some people need to make the distinction between mobile ph...
you know what?
I hate all this nonsense: the Wii is aimed at an entirely different crowd than those who would described as 'hardcore'
I understand why some people don't like the Wii, but even if you purely look at it as a gateway to serious games, then the Wii has a lot going for it.
The games are fun and mindless. You should know by now what you are getting yourself into.
*ABOVE* Bubbles for you
It's never going to stop. Even though sales numbers and other bullsh1t have no direct consequences on ANY OF US(unless it will sink the company), people will still celebrate/whine about them.
I totally agree, it won't stop, which is a real shame, because we are all gamers first. Not platform supporters.
Monthly console sales, Neilson (sp) numbers bear no meaning to a gamer. Play the game, not a bloody platform.
It doesn't ma...
I agree, which is totally in line with what the 1UP guys were on about in the podcast.
