M2G Writes:
This weeks Japanese hardware charts are in and it seems any hope Microsoft had of the new slimmer 360 selling well have already been dashed.
The new console managed to sell just 700 units, accounting for 20% of the overall sales, which totalled 2,915.
Sony faired a lot better, selling 30,761 PSP units and 19,907 PS3′s, which actually sees the system reach over the one million sales for the year to date and even more impressively overtake the Wii.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
sony proud to be a ps owner since ps1 and ps2 and ps3
Looks like the Wii is fading away everywhere in the US and UK the 360 is ahead of it and in Japan the PS3 is ahead of it. The crazy finally seems to be dying out.
Good work Sony! It's just a shame you had to charge so much for the console at Launch and chose to go with the CELL cpu which developers have had trouble coding on. Maybe with your next console iteration you'll be mindful of this.
Unlike Xbox 360 and Kinect, Japanese people love near-reliable technologies.
no doubt PS Move will sell like hot cakes over there.
