Wait, you don't think Watchdogs and Star Wars 1313 are next gen games?
Sure, they may bridge the generations and release on PS3 and 360, but they'll most definitely appear on next gen platforms.
Media Molecule is not developing LittleBigPlanet Racing, that would be United Front Games (the makers of ModNation Racers).
If you're referring to MGS4, he intentionally overdid the "gruff" to go along with Snake's aging. If you mean from 2 on, then I honestly didn't notice.
Not to mention the endless possibilities with prequels, as the PSP games have demonstrated.
As long as you start at the beginning with MGS1 (reading up on the Metal Gear plot lines would help too), you should be fine.
But definitely don't jump in at MGS4, or probably 5. Jumping in at 3 is okay, but makes 1 and 2 practically unplayable. So just start at MGS1 or MG if you're really committed.
Kojima is not Square Enix. If he's behind it, multi-plat or not, it will be awesome. For Sony's sake, I hope it's exclusive, because they need all the help they can get. However, I'm way passed the point of grasping at Sony's remaining third-party exclusives.
MGS has spanned so many different systems, including the 360 and 3DS recently, that I hope whoever wants to play MGS5 will have the opportunity.
Speaking of third-party exclusives, So...
"it has only managed to get in the hands of 800k gamers."
Are you just pulling these numbers out of thin air? The Vita has passed 2 million by now.
@RedHemi300c
The Vita passed 1.2 million at the end of February, the month it launched everywhere other than Japan.
VGchartz estimates it to be at 2.3 million sales now. That may not be 100% accurate, but it's definitely closer than your < 1 million estimate.
At least 2013, but more realistically, 2014 or 2015. Based on the current gen, AAA games have an average of 3 year dev cycle - longer when learning the hardware.
Vita should be easier to develop for, but there are always tricks to every piece of kit. 2013 will be a lot better, but we should really see the Vita shine in 2014.
That will also be around the time when we'll see if third party support is going to stay. This holiday and the next will be very imp...
InFamous 1 still has encounters after 100%. They are few, and there's usually not much challenge involved, but they are there. I continued to earn style points and finish my skill tree after everything else in the game was done.
I never got 100% on inFamous 2, but I assume it's the same.
"Don't finish the final mission until you're done playing the side missions. "
You're not getting it. You should never be "done" with random crime events. I can still pop in Spiderman 2 and stop purse-snatchers, car thieves, and gang violence until my dying days if I wanted. It's a city. There's crime. Defeating a super-villain doesn't make every citizen in the city an angel. That's absurd.
Why is Peter suiting ...
I'm planning on buying the 2500K soon! I'm excited, it'll be part of my first PC build.
The "a few months" this article says is a bit misleading. The closest tech releases in September and most are coming out next year. And honestly, I'd be a little wary of bleeding edge tech. The real benefit is cheaper older tech when the new stuff comes out.
It's a Gex reboot.
"I don't really see any choices being made and a far cry from any tactical decisions."
I see what you did there...
True. But so far there are 3 Halo games that exist outside of a trilogy. Perhaps he was implying that there might be other Halo games similar to Reach, Halo Wars, or ODST? It's not like he can name them by name, and there have been 4 Halo titles this generation alone (soon to be 5), so 4 more for next gen isn't exactly a stretch.
I never got to play them, so yes this is exactly what I want. Because they're impossible to find. Not everyone had an Xbox last gen, and I bet I'm not the only one who wants this.
There's a Buzz background, and I guarantee he won't be a playable character. Just because there's a stage from a game, doesn't necessarily mean there are playable characters from that game. Though a hot shots golfer could be pretty interesting.
Didn't GTAIV release in May (or late April)?
If the next Xbox was a Kinect-fest, I would. But I don't think MS is going to abandon the core.
However I highly prefer Sony's exclusives to MS's. Gears and Fable just don't do it for me.
The title is a bold-faced lie. Sony didn't say anything of the sort.
They're quoting their anonymous source and then attributing it to Sony in the headline. So congrats, you got my hit, thegamefanatics.
Basically, we still don't know what Sony is going to do with Gaikai, but at least we have yet another rumor to add to the BC rumor mill.
