While the delay of the PLAYSTATION 3's launch in PAL regions have left many gamers disappointed, Sony's Michael Ephraim remains optimistic. During an interview with GameSpot, the Sony Computer Entertainment Australia and New Zealand managing director pointed out that although the console's launch has been pushed back, no retailers have canceled pre-orders.
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.
Taking a trip back to Housemarque's forgotten platformer.
The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.
The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
Well well. At least they launch somewhere!
Hey Sony, you just messed up. Gears of War is delayed 5 days after the USA launch, not 5 months! ;) They could adopt Ken in a wild life zoo park down under
what i want to no is what ever happen to The first PS3s to roll off the production line will be PAL units???? ( http://www.computerandvideo... also how can retailers cancel pre-orders when i found it hard to find any that actually wore taking them in the 1st place here in Australia!
It tells you something when the PS2 is gonna outsell the 360 after 6 years on the market, lol people want PS3, plain and simple!
(and yes, I know how to spell it, psh) On another note, I just realized that the G80 (nVidia's latest GPU) is being released within days of the PS3 launch. Some dudes at PS3portal have been speculating that the full RSX specs will either be revealed very late or not at all due to the fact that it shares some very important aspects of this new GPU, the most important of which is 128-bit HDR rendering.
It's a small detail revealed at E3 05, and even the 7950, which is a beast, only does 64-bit HDR. ATI doesn't like to talk about HDR, but rest assured they don't have the technology (at the moment) since it was co-developed between nVidia and ILM. Yes, THE ILM.
Whether PS3 titles will use that level of HDR isn't clear, but at least the possibility is there. nVidia and Sony wanted movie-quality visuals so I'm sure they did everything possible to make that happen. We're pretty sure it's not a G80, but rather a custom hybrid of the best they have to offer. It would make more sense since the PS3's a closed environment and they would need to cater to the unique design of that environment.
all of it is only as good as the software that's made for it.
