crxss4184d ago

good video blackbible. if snake isn't an unlockable there's always DLC :/

Getowned4184d ago

Yes great video, I always enjoy your work vary entertaining.

Old Snake would be awesome lol

FACTUAL evidence4184d ago

My list

Jersey devil
Vahn (legend of legaia)
Blasto
Tomba

vork774184d ago

i would love to see blasto and tomba

kesvalk4184d ago

i really wanted they stop putting these new games chars, and start putting the classics, like tomba, crash and spyro.

bradleejones4184d ago

kesvalk, Snake would not be a "new" character as compared to tomba, crash, or spyro. Metal Gear came out in 1987. Tomba, Crash, and Spyro were all late 1990s games. There were 3 or 4 Metal Gear games before these released their first game.

Majin-vegeta4184d ago

*Challangar??Hmm never heard of that word :P.

Please bring old snake.I wanna use him to beat the living days out of Drake :D.

BLACKBIBLE4184d ago (Edited 4184d ago )

Sorry for the Type-o, you should have reported it so I would notice. Old snake is awesome. I agree Cloud from FFVII should be in the game.

Legacy of Kane characters as well.

I want

Dart (Legend of Dragoon)
Kat (I'd prefer Raven, but that is not likely) (Gravity Rush)
Cloud (FFVII)
Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)
Nightmare (Soul Calibur)

dafegamer4184d ago (Edited 4184d ago )

so true Raven has that kind of sex appeal and badassry
presentation, which I love about female gaming characters. But Kat is sexy though

NovusTerminus4184d ago

Kat came off as to young for me to find her sexy... Almost like a kid... But I still loved her character in the game.

Raven was just an awesome character, and while it seems she did not have the explosive power of Kat, she was more controlled and focused making her attacks more precise.

Qrphe4184d ago

Same, Kat is too cute for me to find to look at her a sex symbol.

GrahamGolden4184d ago

didnt they showed a pic of cloud with other ps character for the tv promo which has been removed cause the hair wasnt done right ?

Thats pretty much confirm that he will be in the game at some point.

GreenRanger4184d ago

They should put a character creation mode in this game.

Qrphe4184d ago

>Green Ranger during Christmas
>not using a green Santa hat

GreenRanger4184d ago (Edited 4184d ago )

MWAHAHAHA!!!
I changed it!

braydox214182d ago

not just any character creation they should put in michael the gamer. he bascially has a bit of everything from each chracter. when using Kratos's moves he has two playsation controllers on his back like the blades of chaos, and he basically using his the blades/controllers grab combos and hitting and spinning etc. (kratos's moves for his blades) then he brings out his move controllers and he uses them like spike does (spike lightsword thingies) for ranged attacks he uses the playstation boomerang (you know the one im talking about the one controller that never was) to hit opponets from afar. maybe one of his specials 1,2 or 3 is able basically rechoose his character or is able to become any other player that is playing, so if there is a sweet tooth, sly cooper, nathan drake, that are also playing the same match you will be able to basically copy them therefore basically changing your character to any of the other players.

shadow27974184d ago

Not sure why you're getting disagrees, it's clearly a typo. The title should read "... A New Challenger Awaits..."

But we're all human, so whatever.

there's no excuses for spelling mistakes on the internet!

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro40d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv7240d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_40d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga40d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt2340d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball200040d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin40d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole40d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix40d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198940d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel198940d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2

Hideo Kojima laments that Metal Gear Solid 4's digital battlefield 'is no longer science fiction'

Game creator Hideo Kojima is and probably will always be best-known for his creation and stewardship of the Metal Gear series at Konami, which since his departure has been more-or-less on permanent hiatus (don't mention Survive). In his almost three decades these games evolved to the point where they predicted certain problems of the information age (MGS 2), took aim at contemporary topics like Guantanamo Bay (MGS: Ground Zeroes), and ended on a profound sense of sadness about our species' inability to break the cycles of global conflict (MGS V).

It's not clear what sparked this reflection, but Kojima's been thinking about Metal Gear Solid 4, an entry that was (and unfortunately still remains) a PlayStation 3 exclusive. In that entry the player controls an aged Solid Snake in the year 2014, caught up in a civil war being fought between Private Military Companies (PMCs).

Dirty_Lemons351d ago

That was a great fucking game/ movie.

DarXyde351d ago

To this day, it's one of those games where I refuse to skip the cutscenes, no matter how many playthroughs I've done.

But if you ask me...MGS2 was bloody prophetic and has aged like fine wine. That game was blasted as the weakest entry, and yet it's so enduring. I replayed it some time last year and it was remarkable.

sadraiden351d ago

Heed not the lamentations of people that say that MGS2 is bad because of the Snake/Raiden bait and switch. Every MGS game has its own merits, and while most people consider 3 to be the best, they all shine equally in my opinion.

porkChop351d ago

@sad

I would generally agree but with the exception of MGSV. It had truly excellent gameplay/combat, but dull and largely empty open world(s), and a narrative that is literally only half finished.

I really wish Kojima hadn't tried to go open world with MGS. It just wasn't right for the series. But I get it. He didn't want to make MG anymore but he wasn't allowed to make anything else. So he had to experiment within that franchise. Still, it was the wrong direction.

Santouryuu350d ago

I have been thinking about this a lot, MGS2 being the weakest and getting blasted.
My conclusion, for some years now, it's my favorite game of the series.
Going from MGS1 to MGS2 was such a big leap, in graphics, mechanics, etc.
And now it's even more relevant for being 'bloody prophetic' as you stated.

Maybe dust of my vita and play it again...

porkChop351d ago

It's a shame we never got a remaster of MGS4. The original game only rendered at 1024x768, and it ran anywhere from like 20fps to 60fps depending on the area. A remaster could have very easily cleaned up the visuals and performance. It's such a great game. I just want to play it again but in its best possible state.

MIDGETonSTILTS17350d ago

I agree, but they did all sorts of tricks to make use of the ps3’s cell processor….they’d probably have to rebuild the game in order to make it run on another machine. And, if that involves remaking those cutscenes somehow, then itll never happen, unfortunately.

porkChop350d ago

Nah. There have been plenty of remasters of PS3 games and they've turned out fine. It can be done.

ANIALATOR136350d ago (Edited 350d ago )

You can get near enough 4k 60 with it on RPCS3 these days

FallenAngel1984350d ago

War... war never changes. Or does it? The war has changed ...did it? The answer is no! Unless it is yes! No, of course it is! Is war! Yes! No! Yes?

PitbullMonster350d ago

Ah a man of culture. Duty calls

cell989351d ago

He was always ahead with this series. MSG1 taught me about the importance of passing on our genes into future generations but in a responsible way, for they are bound to what we experienced in our lifetime. Sons of liberty taught me about global control and simulation runs to test society in a grand scale, the importance and dangers of control of information. MGS3 taught me about patriotism and how that can blind you into doing things you never would have otherwise, all for the sake of politicians who only see you as another pawn in their grand scheme of things. MSG4 taught me war is inevitable and always orchestrated because it's great for the economy. Soon simulation systems will start dictating who goes to war and why, all run through proxies. Privatization of military company are already here. We already started to see how a small group of elites dictates everything that happens. Nothing is done, nothing happens without strings being pulled.

Eidolon351d ago

You learned all this from MGS?

Tody_ZA351d ago

All that was literally the themes and core story of each game, so not surprising he learned that from MGS. Metal Gear Solid 2 in particular is so relevant today, it was more than a decade ahead of its time and a work of genius. Kojima saw what the digital future was going to become when it was in its infancy. Even MGS 5 despite being unfinished and less of a traditional Metal Gear Solid game with regards to story, had a fair bit to say about language and control over it that is relevant today.

It's a highly acclaimed series for a reason, and one of my favourite.

Eidolon351d ago

I've watched my brother play the MGS games, but I only beat MGS1 myself on the PSP in 2014, and MGSV in 2016. I took the themes and plots as lore, tbh.. trying to piece together the story of MGS rather than relating them to our current times.

Tody_ZA351d ago

It's definitely social commentary, Eidolon. You should read the "themes and analysis" section of the Wikipedia page for MGS2: Sons of Liberty for a start! Game was heavy on this.

Eidolon351d ago

I'll take a look, thanks. Actually might pick up MGS2 again (PS Vita), It's been years since I last played. Might start a new game tbh.

sadraiden351d ago

MGS2 literally predicted digital manipulation of information that we see today all the way back in 2001. MGS2 became Zucc's playbook.

Knushwood Butt350d ago

MGS taught me not to pee my pants.

cell989350d ago

Yes back in 1998 when I was 13. Throughout the years more information has been shown on this subject matters, but go back to early 2000s and information wasn't as prominent. Kojima was ahead of the game

He was on the ball about many things. A true visionary.

sadraiden351d ago

If it wasn't for the retconning of how FOXDIE works, including clunky scenes with Naomi and Liquid, MGS4 would be a perfect game. There are so many gameplay options. It felt like us PS3 owners got something truly unique and special.
