I mean isn't it funny how people say "look at GTAIV and Assassin's creed, they're fine". Well, of course they're fine, they were designed with DVD9 in mind. However, GTAIV is smaller than San Andreas.
Imagine what could have been had it been designed with a 50GB blu-ray in mind?
Microsoft is dropping the ball with the games and focusing too much on DLC
Punch-out looks fun BTW, let's hope it has achievements, Wii MotionPlus functionality, a Nintendo WiFi Zone to look at all your trophies/medals/achievements in 3D and online play.
Gamecube : Wii :: DS : DSi
"However, they’ve also worked on other less “popular” titles. Final Fantasy X and X-2, Final Fantasy XII, Dirge of Cerberus: FFVII "
FFX, FFX-2 and FFXIII were very big sellers and were also critically acclaimed. I find it hilarious that he puts them in the same sentence as Dirge of Cerberus.
Another blogger trying to pass-off his opinion as a fact.
It looks last-gen. You wanna know what's funny? Kratos displayed 5000 polygons on PS2, and this Ninja guy only displays 3000 polygons. That's pathetic.
Acceptable polygon counts for today standards are 10,000. Marcus Fenix displays 15,000 polygons. Kratos for God of War 3 will display 25,000 polygons. Nathan Drake on the first uncharted displayed 30,000 polygons and Uncharted 2 will have, reportedly, a significantly higher polygon count.
How sad for From Software...
The first game was lame though. Good graphics, glitches here and there, terrible storyline, very repetitive missions, last-gen gameplay. A 7 at best.
"Comprehending what I typed is key PS3 has quality games and yet they sell poorly, do you understand?
Comprehending what I asked is giving us concrete examples, do you understand? Besides, why would 3rd party developers or gamers care about how much 1st party games sell? Unless you're talking about 3rd party quality exclusives that didn't sell, which are you talking about? Metal Gear Solid 4? That sold a lot. Name some examples, we're all ears and open to hear them. I don'...
"For every game you use to back up your opinion I can post a game that counters it. "
Well, go ahead. We're still waiting for you to back any and all of your unsubstantiated claims since you joined. Is there any timed exclusive that did better on the console that released last? Virtua Figher did worse on 360, Lost Planet did worse on PS3, bioshock did worse on PS3. Maybe JRPGs like Eternal Sonata did better on PS3 in japan but I'm not sure about that one.
The gamecube was trailing the Xbox and the PS2. Xbox was backed by the biggest corporate bully of them all. Underdog and Microsoft don't go in the same sentence, sorry.
Get Resident Evil 4 (for Wii)
Timed exclusives shouldn't count as they will naturally sell more on the console they came out first (like Bioshock and Lost Planet). Gaps that are smaller than the gaps in install base in terms of percentage are not favorable for you either.
I don't know how they managed to screw this one. If you wanna play a great third person shooter play warhawk. That's a 9 in my book.
Xbox 360 has been significantly cheaper upfront since launch, so assuming PS3 and 360 demographics are more or less the same, then 360 owners would have additional disposable income to spend on games, at least initially.
Xbox 360 has been out in the market longer.
PS3 has gotten some sh1tty ports of multiplatform games, so why should they sell well on PS3? Take the orange box, or Madden 07 or the Wheelman. Hell, take any timed exclusive on 360, why should they se...
"Ahh yes, the mighty KZ2, Uncharted 2, and GoW3.
Great PS3 games developed and tested on Intel toting PC's. "
Just No.
Run and gun shooters are overrated
Halo invented First Person Shooters, Gears of War invented the cover system (hell, it invented 3rd person shooters), Halo is the first game about shooting Aliens from space and Gears is the first storyline *ever* where ugly humanoids from below earth try to slaughter humanity. Fable invented the Zelda genre.
I was born yesterday too.
I don't see everyone talking about Resistance 3 or Gears 3 or Killzone 3 or hell even Halo 4, we all want these franchises to take a rest already. Well, for a while at least. I hope Lionhead doesn't announce Fable 3 soon. These franchises need to be re-booted just like Resident Evil had a re-boot last-gen and needs one urgently. Same for Fable.
It's going to be called "Elitist Gamer show", it'll be all about classical music (heavily criticizing everyone's taste in "ghetto trash". HipHop will be forbidden. Then again, that's obvious), talks about science, fashion, philosophy, art, and all of their relations with gaming, all spoken in a pompous manner while being disdainful against all those that simply don't "belong" in "high class" or "high society" scenarios with jokes that are gene...
"Gears of War with extra content for PS3. "
Epic owns the content, so it's not impossible
