Well, there are games out there that allow PC gamers and Xbox 360 gamers to play together, and then you have games that allow PC gamers and PS3 gamers to play together.

I don't think, though, that we'll ever see PS3 and Xbox 360 gamers being able to come together and play. Sony and Microsoft simply wouldn't allow it.

They would if that would make them earn more money.

Also, article suggests pitting players from different systems against each other, by using funboyism for something creative. It would be 'console wars MMO' :)

And why not? Final fantasy allowed Xbox, pc, and ps2 to play together.

Well said... Nice article :)

Nah.
PC is the only way to play MMOs.
Keyboard & Mouse FTW!
On top of that PC servers always stay open the longest for these types of games.
Console MMOs will just die out by the next gen when Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo move on to their next consoles.
In this situation I wouldn't trust getting MMOs on anything else but a PC.

final fantasy xi says hello. PS2, PC, 360 and BC PS3's playing together.

That genuinely, genuinely sucks. The reboot has clear flaws, but it really felt like a solid first step for this team to receive *greater* investment.

Alone in the dark is a fun game so that's unfortunate

Something about recreating old school graphics in an era of HD high poly photo realism just hits a spot. I'm not nostalgic cause I mostly played GameCube and GB/A, but it's a visual style that gets over looked even by indies.

Definitely a fan project. Terrible hand animations. Some characters have very bad body proportions. Some look like little kids in adult bodies. Some have short arms, small head, big hips and so on.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos3h ago

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).
