Richard Teversham, director of platform and marketing of Microsoft EMEA has a wild imagination. In an interview he did with Fok! Games during X06 he guaranteed that Xbox 360 games will look better than their PS3 counterparts. Bold claims for a system that's technically less powerful. He also doubts that Sony will ship any consoles to Europe if the PS3 becomes a success in Japan. People are doubting the PS3's potential in Japan now?
K-Pop Academy is an upcoming pop star management simulator from the game studio that brought you Tsuki’s Odyssey and Campfire Cat Café.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
That is a pretty bold statement....
didnt they say there will be no 1080p games this year ? their arrogance is ugly. they must be totally powened if they start to talk such sh!t. this is the freakiest statement ever.
I don't like to see senseless "trash talk" like this....I prefer M$ maintain its focus of delivering the "goods" and letting the games speak for themselves rather than listening to guys making "bold predictions"....not that I don't think some 360 games will look better than some PS3 games & vice versa, but this just seems like "trash talking" more than anything else, which is exactly why I hate when Ken opens his mouth....at least lately Ken has learned to calm down. BTW, achira just because a game is 1080p doesn't mean it will look better than a game in 720p, there are other variables.....but if you were able to compare identical games that were made in 720p vs 1080p then yes the 1080p version will look better.
I wish Microsoft would avoid this type of thing. The last generation was lead by Xbox graphics, this generation will see a shift towards PS3 power. That's not to say the 360 is inferior, simply that PS3 should be able to deliver better visuals based on it's specs. I'll be totally happy if the 360 delivers visuals on par with some of the PS3 games, in this generation it looks like graphics will always be good. Some games will look better, but with the huge technical advances made recently it seems like gameplay will play a larger role than in the last generation. After what I saw from X06 it looks like Microsoft will deliver some killer titles, that's all we really want right? I still play GRAW all the time and it's starting to get dated with the new games coming out.
I'd rather they hadn't said this. I don't doubt it's true, a number of 360 versions will look better, BECAUSE THE CONSOLES ARE EQUAL.
But pointless trash talk like this is not helping them, especially when a number of PS3 games will probably look better, too.
