I've always been a PS3 guy and I bought every Gran Turismo, but I really hate the counting cars bull crap. The vast majority of cars are complete crap if you actually count up all those god awful 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's japanese cars that had no power, no personality, and no business in a racing game. The team wasted unbelievable amounts of time modelling the same stupid car in every single year it came out, of which the differences were minimal at best. This is the reas... #1.1.5

Phil Hartup is a dumb, self important retard, and he thinks everyone should know that as well. #1

It depends on who the game is being marketed to. Believe it or not, Nintendo isn't marketing to an identical audience of Sony or Microsoft, they have their own audience, filled with a loyal fanbase, and a ton of casual gamers.

If I'm making a game that doesn't fit into those categories, then I'm not going to waste dev time and money making a game that isn't marketed to Nintendo's core market. It just doesn't make sense. Activision tried it with Ca... #1.1.14

No one seems to understand the business model of Playstation Plus. When you figure out how Sony creates promotions, how they get permission, how the pricing model works, and how companies get compensated, then you can criticize it. At this point, you have your head up your a$$ about Playstation Plus if you're really going to sit there and tell Sony they're hurting developers. #1.1.3

Midway really needs to sell the rights to this IP to a good publisher who will make a true horror game in the same vein as the first game (not EA). #1.1.1

This just in, the NRA has an announcement:
That mother should have shot back with her own gun! The answer is never less guns, or background checks, or sanity checks, the answer is crossfire with the kids!

Unbelievable. Gun manufacturers have politicians in the back pocket. Any legislation that would limit the sale of guns, even to crazy people or criminals is voted down by American politicians who are completely bought and paid off by the NRA. Gun manufacturers make m... #1.1.14

It would have been too expensive to manufacture something with 6-8 discs with the extremely old DVD format. #1.1.8

Sega deserves it for not funding the game so it would get to where it needed to be by the time it released, unfortunately an old fart judge is going to be reviewing the before and after pics, and I have a feeling based on those comparisons the judge won't have a clue what everyone is whining about as the difference only appears to be in the lighting in those pics.

Really this is just the typical whiny reaction from self entitled gamers who think they can hurt a developer... #1.1.3

This one filed under "duh" #1.1.1

This is totally a Japanese way of doing business, not trickle down like in North America. Japanese people believe in the health of the company and the collective more than giving some already rich douchebag an enormous bonus this year for running the company into the ground the last several years. This is why Japanese automotive companies have been by far more profitable and put out statistically better products. Look it up! #1.1.18

It only didn't go so well if you were a PS3 hating troll who went on a mission to try and denigrate the PS3 and all its games, as edge-online and several other website have demonstrably done on the past.

Killzone 2 and 3 have their haters, and they really are incredibly petty and troll-like. No one takes you seriously anymore if you're a hater, because as time passed and people looked back on the Killzone franchise, they saw a damn good set of games with unbelievably... #1.1.10

lol sorry Nintendo fans... you're all in denial. Nintendo is not marketing to you if you're looking for the most powerful console. Nintendo is marketing towards old people, casual gamers, and hardcore Nintendo fans that would buy a pile of dog poo if it had Nintendo's label on it. #1.1.10

It is good to fire people if you want a short term boost in profit due to the lack of salaries you have to pay out, however data shows that this doesn't work to boost profit in the long term. This idea that it creates a bothersome working environment is complete spun nonsense from Public Relations people writing on behalf of CEO's.

In reality, when you lay off your best employees, it creates a sinking ship mentality. This is where the highest quality employees are afr... #1.1.2

In case anyone hasn't figured it out, the tech demo was on a PC, not a console. If you really think consoles can push those visuals, you must be smoking Snoop Dogg levels of pot. #1.1.4

All this speculation is pointless when we don't have all the facts... I mean, making comparisons with an imaginary console and a confirmed one is ridiculous. #1.1.1

The team who made Ultimate Destruction are too busy making those Prototype games which... haven't really worked to reel people in the way the Hulk did.
One thing you will never see is a gory Marvel game that doesn't fit the character or the comics. It's because of the target audience being so young, some parents actually monitor what their kids play and so your sales will drop if you make an M rated superhero game. Wolverine's Origins game was great fun, but it was a... #1.1.1

Everyone probably demanded more money for the next game, that shoots the cost of development through the roof. Once you resign onto the next contract there's usually a raise if your last game sold by the truck full. Plus the team was probably way larger this time with more networking programmers and testers since this is the first online game in the GoW series.

Marketing with that superbowl commercial wasn't cheap either lol #1.1.13

The "author" doesn't know jack about doing business. He clearly has no education in business, and has no idea how to add value to services. Screw him! PS+ is just one of those things that virtually everyone who gets it inevitably loves at one point or another due to all the exposure to games they get that they otherwise never would have.
All services are digital, so Sony isn't losing a dime if they decide to give away something for free as long you as remain a subsc... #1.1.1

Exactly. There have been no hugely successful games that had bad gameplay, someone out there must find it fun for it to sell. Angry Birds didn't sell a bazillion copies because of its cutting edge graphics, regardless of your opinion of that game. #1.1.1
