I don't know about other titles but there are a S***Load of Brazilians playing GT5 at any one time (because GT displays player's country of origin flags next to their names).

No seriously I mean a lot. With this news, I'm expecting a lot more Brazilian rooms.

jeffgoldwin3942d ago (Edited 3942d ago )

A lot of these 3rd world countries gunna eat up ps3. You really cant blame them with the free online among other benefits.

The greatest enemy to ps4 sales might end up being ps3 discounted sales.

thehitman3942d ago

@ Jeff
You just refer to the country thats going to host the next Olympics 3rd world? Ouch I am not even Brazilian and I think thats a tad disrepectful. Ignorance on the net these days...

S2Killinit3942d ago

I think Brazil has recently joined the 2nd world countries, if there is such a thing, but I don't think 3rd world should be considered a 'disrespect'. There are many countries in that category and its not like their life is less valuable that anybody else's.

adorie3942d ago

Brazil isn't 3rd world. They have 'one' of the largest economies on the planet.

oakshin3942d ago

they have the 3rd largest economy in the world 2 be exact

Hicken3942d ago

Anything to downplay positive Sony news, eh, Jeff?

SantistaUSA3942d ago

I'm from Brasil, I've been living in the States for 13 years now, and yes Brasil still is a 3rd world country, true the economy got a lot stronger and was the first country to get out of the recession, but it will be a 3rd world country for a long time, there's a lot that has to change and to be honest it might never change.

Did you used to have that avatar years ago?

WeAreLegion3942d ago

Haha. I think he did! I wish N4G would let me go back to my old account. :/ People actually knew who I was back then.

Bathyj3942d ago

still got the same account from the day I started

Maddens Raiders3942d ago (Edited 3942d ago )

Hahaa yes Bathy... a long time ago. Good to see you old friend.

@Legion, who are you, really lol?

BozoLoco3942d ago

I got to Brazil often for work and the PlayStation brand is not uncommon, even though it takes so long to get released there. The popularity of FIFA also helps PS seeing as though EA lead platform is PS3 (has been since around 2009).

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis3h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast2h ago

It's worth a play through today.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg22h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv7222h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood23h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK20h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast2h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake19h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast2h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon14h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast2h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.
