Believe it or not, one indie developer has revealed that Nintendo has told them they can add cross-platform online play with Xbox and Playstation users. Of course, Sony and Microsoft would have to allow it themselves for this to happen but its a big step for the entire industry that Nintendo seems willing to make first.
Lam is among the 120 characters available for recruitment in Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. While she is one of the many straightforward recruits, a known bug may prevent players from recruiting her if certain conditions are met. Despite developers’ assurances of fixing the bug, some early access players still encounter issues with recruiting Lam despite attempting the standard method.
Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered players are ticked off by the game’s most recent patch, which censors in-game pin-up posters of Lara Croft.
This is why gaming is screwed. When people change things to fit someone’s agenda, it’s a slippery slope downhill.
tbh I dont see something like this as censorship. Does anyone else not find it strange for someone to stick pin ups of themsleves in a locker room?
Now of it was a pin up of some half naked firefighters it might make sense as Lara might like that, and if they removed that I would cry censorship. But removing pin ups of the main character, yeah I get it.
By the year 2030, this remaster collection will totally be changed and censored. Probably will remove Lara as a playable character. It's ridiculous. Glad that my family didn't buy this.
I still have Tomb Raider 2 PS1 as a memory.
It’s mentioned in the article, and it’s a point i 100% agree with, it’s the fact that they can censor a game after you buy it. That’s total bullshit.
Whilst it's an overreaction to say this has "ruined" the game, it's still problematic that this has happened post launch and for many, post-purchase.
I don't want someone to change a product for the worse after I've bought it. The same goes for implementing micro transactions after reviews.
I wonder why they did this? Nobody was kicking up a fuss as far as I'm aware.
Gary Green said: In a time where an enhanced, 3D remake of Final Fantasy III already exists, it’s hard to argue that Final Fantasy III Pixel Remaster is the definitive version we were expecting. With Final Fantasy III already being the last in the series to be translated and make its way west, this is something of a slap in the face for the fans. Still, let’s not be disheartened. There may be many shortfalls in this edition of Final Fantasy III, however there’s no denying that this classic JRPG still holds some nostalgic value, even if it struggles to break away from its original hardware limitations.
It’s funny I’m seeing these articles about pixel remaster, and I just platinumed 1-4 within 8 days lol. I’ve been on FF5 for about a week now. Let’s just say 5 was the start of FF having content like crazy. I should have the plat within 2-3 days.
The game being an accurate represantation of the original was not a slap in the face to the fans. The 3D remasters looked like ass (visually) tbh.
I expect Sony to follow Nintendo if anything of the big three, especially since they are trying to get their titles on every device possible (not saying Nintendo can play Sony games there)PC is prob a given, considering how open it is and how many games this gen does it already.
In reality, I would love to see all three parties take advantage of this, I loved with Portal two especially that it had it's own network so you can add PC/PS3 friends (well, it is Steam so). Of course there will always be the issue of loud mouths shouting and trolling each other over the mics.
Hey now!!!! Dont forget us PC chickens...
We want in on some of that cross platform action too ;)
EDIT: I dont want to come across as an ass trying to start a console war but could MS's dedicated servers block cross platform online play?
Nintendo is usually the first to do anything, in the video game industry, Like motion control, give it six months and the trolls will be swearing it was sony and microsoft who did it first!! Will this happen with games like call of duty and splinter cell for all three systems? who knows? but I think this is a great way for friends who have different machines to play together on multi platform games, this will catch on, and hopefully sony and microsot will pick up on this idea as well.
Just look at things like Portal 2, Skullgirls, etc. So IF there is any problem with this, it won't come from their end. And Nintendo will allow it also apparently so......
Great Nintendo are open to it but there is an issue with servers which means this is next to impossible. It all depends on who servers the game runs on. Nice Nintendo are allowing this but it is a bit of an empty gesture as it is next to impossible to implement (especially when the console go through their platform ecosystem to even get online. i.e. Live, PSN...)
Lot easier to go from PC to console as the servers are run by the same people. Much more difficult on consoles with differing ecosystems
