MCV: The PS3 crisis is officially over – but if for some reason you think PS3 is in line for a second global meltdown, bookmaker Paddy Power is willing to take your money.
The bookmaker is currently offering odds of 11/8 on PS3 suffering a new worldwide glitch. If you think Xbox 360 is more likely to suffer a similar fate, however, it will offer odds of 7/4. The Wii is an outside bet at 2/1.
"PS3 has recently earned the unfortunate reputation of being the Toyota of the games console industry and is the bookies favourite to be next for a repeat performance of yesterday's calamity," a statement reads.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
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).
As Paddy Power make money from getting things CORRECT. Their opinion is probably more valid than most analysts.
This was all just caused by a minor overlook in the date programming on the system clock. If there was anything non-date related that would cause the PS3 to do something like this, it would have happened already. Leap year bugs are more common than you think with firmware and software, but this leap year bug just happened to have a bigger impact than most. Nothing else is going to happen unless for whatever reason they can't fix the leap year bug between now and March 1, 2014 which will be the next time the leap year bug causes trouble if not taken care. But they'll take care of it. 4 years is a long time to find a fix.
they are desperate for hits!
I can't believe this got approved.
