When will Frobisher Says be coming to the US store!?!?

Hicken4310d ago

It should be on the store now, since the update hit yesterday.

jspencep4310d ago

I checked but it's still not there :(
At least YouTube was added...

Hicken4310d ago

Well, that sucks. I want to play it, too, as I heard it was quite fun.

dorron4310d ago

Stupid list.

Most of the games are PSP games, not Vita games (although playable in the Vita).

1nsomniac4310d ago

...So 6 of the best 10 Vita games are actually PSP games. What a stupid article.

KongRudi4310d ago

It's just that journalists opinion of 10 of the best games for less than 10£. It's not Vita's best games.

DarkHeroZX4310d ago

The title does read top 10 PS Vita games.

KongRudi4310d ago

@DarkHeroZX, No it dosn't, it says '10 of the best PS Vita games for under £10 each'.

DarkHeroZX4309d ago

ddurand14310d ago (Edited 4310d ago )

Some of these digi titles need to be converted to run on ps5 games like the last guy will be gone now

PitbullMonster1099d ago

You can still play The last guy on PSNow.

PitbullMonster1099d ago

Btw. Same goes to Echochrome.

Mulando1099d ago

In bad 720p streaming quality + we don't know how long Sony will allow PS3 titles on PSNow.
After all (and as far as it is known) they still use PS3 hardware for PS3 games. I really hope they use an emulator nowadays, but I don't think so.

Teflon021099d ago

Mulando don't know if you've used Now but games like that run fantastic lol. Playing Locoroco remastered looks damn near exactly the same as downloading. I know because I've played on my PC streamed plenty of times and you don't get a single artifact or feel delay. It really just depends on the title. Those ones are fine

cammers19951099d ago

This is really sad that the store is closing. Fuck Jim Ryan.

LiViNgLeGaCY1099d ago

Seriously. He needs to go ASAP.

Viking_mo1099d ago

The sheer audacity for him to say no one plays old games. What an idiot

Mr Logic1099d ago

Or...he's correct. They have telemetry, they can see how often people play old games. You people need to understand that if you go on N4G, reddit, FB groups, etc. to talk about games or keep up with games, then you are the hardcore of the hardcore and you makeup a tiny, TINY portion of the gaming public.

None of that is to say that I agree with taking down the stores or support Sony not doing BC for PS1-3.

343_Guilty_Spark1099d ago (Edited 1099d ago )

But N4G PS gamers says people don't...only new exclusives matter

senorfartcushion1099d ago

Jim Ryan and Herman Hulst sounds like The Death Twins.

Snookies121099d ago

I really wish we got a Tokyo Jungle sequel with a bit more budget to it. That game was so unique.

What Happened To PlayStation Exclusive MotorStorm?

Where did Sony’s racing franchise go?

isarai1672d ago

Studio wanted try a more "racing sim" with Driveclub, didn't go too well and Sony shut the studio down. The team reformed at Codemasters and made Onrush, which is unsure if it did well. Now I guess they just work for codemasters

madpuppy1672d ago

onrush is trash, I bought it and It is no Motorstorm. It is like a bad developers version of a copycat game based loosely on Motorstorm.

I deleted it from my PS4 within hours of installing it. The game is just terrible.

isarai1672d ago

I love it, though I wish there were more tracks

darthv721672d ago

It isnt supposed to be motorstorm so if you went in thinking it was then... that's on you. I'm sorry you didnt get the hang of it but it is a fun game. you are right, it is no motorstorm but what it is, is its own thing.

CurbStompin1672d ago

Well they closed the studio after onrush, so you aren’t alone in your feelings. Game just felt boring tbh.

umair_s511672d ago

They should remaster Motorstorm trilogy for PS4

IamTylerDurden11672d ago (Edited 1672d ago )

OnRush was solid. The gameplay loop was enjoyable once you actually get good. It wasn't Motorstorm, it had some similarities, but very different in terms of gameplay. Onrush was a well built game. It wasn't as AAA or perhaps as good as Motorstorm, but enjoyable nonetheless. Once you get good at pulling off kills and tricks for boost it becomes exciting. Photo mode is excellent and the visuals are decent. It features a full sp campaign, co op, and mp. I got the game on PS+ and thoroughly enjoyed the platinum. It also has a plethora of unlockable cosmetics.

isarai1672d ago

@CurbStompin

No they didn't, the team is still part of codemasters, though the creative director of Onrush left shortly after it released.

madpuppy1672d ago (Edited 1672d ago )

@darthv72
It's not that I didn't "get the hang of it" the game is boring and freaking ugly, and you couldn't just play the game, The game forced you in between racing to look at these poorly drawn and animated "characters" dancing around like morons next to their cars, the music...oh how I hated the music, It was like someone on the dev team thought it would be a good idea to find the worst, most eclectic garbage and put it in the game.
Like I said, Trash ALL AROUND, I wold have rather bought Anthem and Fallout 76 than this pile of beige gruel.

Father__Merrin1671d ago

I u installed after 1 lap it was horrid

rainslacker1672d ago

Shame Sony closed down the studio, but glad they regrouped into a new studio, and apparently got funding to make another game. Motorstorm could still be made if Sony chose to. DriveClub was an ambitious attempt at a new racing IP, and probably why GT6 didn't release as cross gen. But Driveclub itself was pretty good, and Bikes was awesome, and DriveClub VR is probably the best VR racing game. If it weren't for the launch issues, which really didn't affect the game that much despite what people were making out, then it probably would have been more successful, and maybe they wouldn't have been shut down. But who's to say, as Sony was going through a lot of financial transitions and streamlining at the time.

IRetrouk1671d ago (Edited 1671d ago )

thats the only reason i didnt get 6, i assumed an upgraded version was coming for the ps4, and as it released after the ps4 i thought it was a sure thing.
In the end it never happened, i kept meaning to grab a copy but just never did.

2pacalypsenow1672d ago

I think the last few MotorStorm games didn't sell very well.

Still remember playing the first one and being in awe of the mud effects.

SmielmaN1672d ago

First Motorstorm blew my mind! Lol

darthv721672d ago

Pacific rift is my favorite. Hell, even the RC game is fun. Arctic edge and apocalypse were okay but the first two were excellent.

Knushwood Butt1672d ago

Played the RC one a ton on Vita. Funny how nobody ever mentions that game in those 'Vita had no first party support' threads.

Dirtnapstor1672d ago

And playing in 3D was pretty rad too! Picked up Apocalypse for a few bucks awhile back. Good game.

UnholyLight1672d ago

I think back to the days of the demo stations when i was young, and the first Motorstorm was like a graphical achievement back then, it blew my mind

specialguest1672d ago

The first one was fun and I do remember the cool mud effect. Made me feel like wow, we are truly in the next gen

IamTylerDurden11672d ago

The original Motorstorm was a technically jaw dropping game. Visuals were incredible, the tracks were well designed, and the mud effects were brilliant.

SonyStyled1671d ago

There was also a release delay in Japan/Asia due to the 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and 3 fission reactor meltdowns. Being titled Apocalypse is an unfortunate title for the timing. Great game though

dumahim1671d ago

I refuse to call Motorstorm a racing game. The AI cars sole purpose was to prevent you from winning like rubberbanding their way ahead of you and brake checking you. This isn't how racing works.

The cheating/rubberbanding was just horrendous. IIRC, the semi was supposed to be the worst in the mud and I had the vehicle best for it and I was in the lead and boosting through it and the damn semi caught up and passed me.
Another time I was in a truck running along some cliff and a dirt bike came up beside me and the rock wall. I decide to ram the bike in to the wall and I wind up blowing up and the bike drives off just fine.

2pacalypsenow1671d ago

"I decide to ram the bike in to the wall and I wind up blowing up and the bike drives off just fine."

Lol

FreeFallFrenzy1671d ago

I definitely remember the rubberbanding in the high-ranked challenges. It was the reason I never finished all of them. You had to be absolutely perfect some races! It was crazy. With that said, it is easily one of the best racing games I've ever played and competing online was a joy to behold due to the pure chaos of it all. Huge adrenaline rush!

Sgt_Slaughter1672d ago

Motorstorm VR would be crazy, as well as Motorstorm in (close to) 4K

Absonite1672d ago

Forget MotorStorm, what the hell happened to JetMoto???

ibrake4naps1672d ago

Motorstorm working on my 3d tv was a big deal for me years ago

BenRC011672d ago

That and arkham city was the pinnacle of 3d for me. Oh and killzone 3 in 3d with the moves and big gun thingy.

Knushwood Butt1672d ago

Yep, Killzone 3 in multiplayer in 3D plus Move controls was great.

Dirtnapstor1672d ago

Did you ever try Uncharted (I don't remember which one).

Knushwood Butt1671d ago

^

Uncharted 3. Yes, I wasn't impressed with the 3D implementation in that, apart from the drug sequence, which was way better in 3D.

IamTylerDurden11672d ago (Edited 1672d ago )

Apocalypse in 3D was immaculate. I don't understand why people bashed Sony's foray into 3D? Apocalypse was the perfect game to bundle in 3D. On its own it was a fun popcorn game, but 3D actually elevated the experience.

Killzone 3 was also impressive in 3D. Killzone and Motorstorm had incredibly deep and dynamic 3D. KZ3 may have had some ghosting or artifacting, but the 3D popped off the screen. Awesome experience in a visually stunning and highly underrated PS3 game.

darthv721672d ago

I will say that on their own 3d tv those games rocked. When i played them on other brands, it seemed like the 3d quality just wasnt the same.

yeahokwhatever1671d ago

I got to enjoy all of these titles on my 100 inch 3d projector setup with surround sound. KZ3 with the move controller in 3D was basically a holodeck. It was amazing.
