Does it come with the cute Japanese girl to??
But seriously, One thing Niffty can do, that is break the rules.
They can introduce new hardware or changes in hardware without any problems. Whereas most other companies worry that they will alienate their user-base.
They always break the rules, and the benefit from it with even more new customers, aside from already established ones.
If MS did the same, they'd have more customers as well. Espec...
Most flying and racing games are repetitive by nature . . same track, same sky, same situation. It's about refining your moves and getting better at it. Using different planes outside the recommended ones makes it more difficult and gives you less firepower, and you need to use your wingman to help.
But not everyone likes flight or racing games . . . it is a special genre and requires a certain level of involvement that some players find boring or lackluster.
I do love them, and while there were some sections that werre painful, and needless, the game overall is well worth it, IF you are into the genre. If not, then steer clear and grab things like Battle Over The Pacific etc.
Madcatz Australia through HES (Home Entertainments Systems) ar ebringing in some PC, PS3 and 360 Flight Sticks for this game and other flight games in June or late May.
We will keep everyone posted on news. You can pick them up in the US but freight might be expensive. Also try Play-Asia or CDWow (UK) . . . here's a link showing the units I'm talking about.
But the Xe.com sites gives exact exchange rates in real time for exact figures naturally.
But even on the low...
Thanks for not taking the reply the wrong way mate.
Yes, in fact, when compared to the UK, Our $AU is valued far less, so if we say import a game from the UK that we can't get here, because it gets banned, or simply is not released here, we pay upwards of THREE times the value of the UK£
Making the game the same price or more than it would cost us here. And getting a "bargain" is getting a USED game at say $AU80 and Trade Ins go fro around the $80 - $1...

"--- Lazy mother fnc%3$ !!! ---
and
"ok there is something wrong there >>> $80 <<< where in the damn world do you live? Because in my world its only $50."
And this IS half of the problem . . . not all Australians or New Zealanders etc want to swear or call every one "Lazy mother fnc%3$" .. and we (other ppl in the world) do not live in the USofA.
So not everything is based on the $US . . . we hav...
What IS this thing with "how gay it is" . .
You do realise what Gay means . . It's not a term that should be used it that context . .
You could use something much more descriptive, and something that would mean more such as How futile, how rediculious, how frustrating etc, but Gay. really . .??
My experience with Xbox Live has me not want to be involved with it actually, and listening to a huge number of ppl here in Australia, it's a wonder they even buy Gold . .
The service is basically "basic" for anyone outside of Nth America and even Europe now. If you reside outside those area, forget about it, you really do NOT matter in the greater scheme of things - at all.
Point taken, many thanks . .
The earlier Press Release stated otherwise, thanks for the clificiation, I'll ammend the item now.Cheers.
None at the moment, that we can see anyway, but we will be keeping an eye on it for "whatever" platform it does end up appearing on.
Games press, the industry portal for all games release media has it as PC/360 and the Press Release, also in the article states PC and 360, no mention of the PS3 . . .
It could be a full multi, but both GamesPress (only open to "official Games Media" where PR companies send all their For Immediate Release Press Releases, which are then accessed by the media) and the Official Press Release state otherwise - at the moment. Which is why it twigged my attention.
How can someone disagree with these graphics for the particular genre. They are excellent given that it's neither a FPS or a TPS or even a shooter of any sorts.
It's a tactical based game, and the amount of detail they have placed in the game is high, much higher than many other similar titles.
I hate it when ppl just disagree for no apparent reason, or without saying WHY they disagree. Sign of a sheep . . . someone who follows others over a cliff.
The title looks excellent actually, aside from mis Polly Rae's proportional polygons . . .art of that era was always nice rounded women rather than the stick-figured females of today. Much more 'real and accessible" which was the whole attraction for servicemen of the time.
The latest video shows some excellent Modes for Multiplayer and also co-op work I believe, and judging from what is now coming out, this could be one of those games that will absorb a great deal of time f...
Well that's ANOTHER Pc centric game heading our way actually. Announcements were made last year, even though many were saying "it'll never happen" . . Mainly from the PC brigade of course.
Thing is, many developers can no longer afford NOT to develop for the consoles these days, or in the future. The console is making its way into heavier titles and more inroads to the everyday life of most people.
So in order to get their games seen, played and purchased, ...
Yes,FPS genre mate, info a bit light on at the moment though, but it could well be something to at least give Assassin's Creed something to think about, and add it to the other game of similar style, The Crossing . .
That would be three games in the same era and based around the similar theme . . which is great actually, as I really enjoy these meatier games.
I was quite taken back by the detail in this iteration. The last was "good" . . but the engine on this looks 10 times better than the last, and the water effects look like - well - water this time, and ships (not boats people) do have characteristics this time, which is great.
The Brits and the Yanks were big on embalising their war machines with ladies from "home" . .and the Burlesque was the big No-No of the time, so what better way to say F U to the world t...
You just have to love the art of the war period . . . made its way into so many different areas of art, but was always embelised in many films, posters, and war effort pushes . .
The game its self is certainly shaping up to be the virtual war tactic gamers dream come true. Especially if the videos of in-game play are anything to go by.
This is a must have for me, and that's is saying something.
If you check this article out ( http://oxcgn.com/2009/04/01... and the pics, you'll see that some of the OzHahou team, and one of our team got better results WITH the 360 controller. You'll see the SFIV Fight sticks on the floor, and the controllers in their hands . . hmmmm
I'd point out that the OzHahou team are some of THE worlds best Street Fighter players out, and do the game ...
