Shack News: Everyone was showing off multi-screen connectivity at E3--not just Nintendo. Microsoft spent a good deal of its E3 presentation on SmartGlass; Sony showed off how Vita can be used as a controller for the PS3 version of LittleBigPlanet 2. Given Wii U is defined by the asymmetric gameplay made possible by its unique tablet, did Sony and Microsoft steal Nintendo's thunder?
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).
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
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.
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.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata doesn't think so. "That suggests to me that they clearly see value in what we're trying to do," he said. "So the fact that we have so quickly seen somebody following in the footsteps of what we first introduced with the Wii U, suggests that there are people who see great appeal in what we're offering."
LOL... here we go.
Sony has a patent filing for this kind of connectivity going back to 2010, before the Wii U was announced. If anyone is playing catch up with this, it's MS.
Why do i get the feeling the NFC, camera, and mic functions of the Gamepad is going to be what makes the BIG difference for Nintendo? I can see Yu-gi-oh, Skylanders, Pokémon, and even Kid Icarus taking advantage of the NFC with cards and figures
Anything wii u can do vita can do almost same and in some case better. Did Sony not already patent the idea
The fanbabies always give me a chuckle. The bottom line this generation is Microsoft has won. PS2 was in a dominant market position last gen, that has been completely eroded and as it now stands the two companies are effectively neck and neck in worldwide sales this gen, with Microsoft completely dominant in North America. That is a Microsoft win considering where they came from last gen. Nintendo made out like bandits with the Wii initially, but as of late they have been taking massive losses, much like Sony. So who really wins folks? The answer is clear. If you can't admit it to yourself, that is a you problem. And Microsoft has managed a win despite the red ring of death failure rate fiasco and charging a rather considerable yearly fee for online (the online is good, but come on). Sony has more (and better) exclusives, yet they are struggling. I own a 360 and ps3, and I fear sony's massive losses will effect how they approach the next gen. Microsoft is fattening their pockets at the expense of us gamers (red ring replacement consoles, xbox live gold memberships) and that does not make me very happy, but I'm a gamer and I need my games. Next gen as always I will evaluate strengths and weaknesses of the new consoles and buy one b4 I buy the other, as I bought my 360 2 years b4 I picked up my PS3 this gen. I really feel with the way it's going Microsoft is going to be in a better position to spend more on development and tech for their new machine than sony, and the online component may seal the deal, as sony cannot possibly go the mandatory fee for online route next gen without infuriating their "loyal" fanbase.
