I also hope Microsoft, can make their "XBLA" easier to interact with, and a new system... it's not because it's a huge failure, but because it's not so organized..

And maybe check Terms and agrees to be eaiser for indie devs to publish their game there, i had quite some issues on publishing my game with my dev team

Moncole4436d ago

They have to let indie devs put there games on it without publishers because on WiiWare and 3DSWare indie devs don't need publishes and I am sure it will be the same with the Wii U. MS can lose a lot of indie support because of this.

Assuming they stick with a similar layout to Metro, they could really do with intergrating the apps into the actual Dashboard, as opposed to having to launch apps. More seamless experience is all I want, and the ability to utilize bing search in Apps to search for titles in Lovefilm, Netflix, Youtube etc. Currently bing search can only be used on the bing page of the main Dashboard.

I want it to look alot more futuristic, minority report style. We can scroll like that with the kinect, so a nice semi transparent green and other little touches would be nice. Although the UI isnt bland, I the look is though.

I would like for the tabs to be customized. In my opinion the second tab after Home should be Games then Social then whatever.

Would also love it if some of the apps like iheart radio and lastfm would run in the background while your playing a game or browsing through the dashboard.

Where are the Xbox originals?

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5062d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905062d ago (Edited 5062d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5062d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5062d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495062d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5062d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5062d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
