...Insomniac's Ted Price told 1up with a grin at Sony's PS3 Gamer's Day event in San Francisco today. The game, which is quickly becoming the must-have launch title for the PS3, appeared polished and ready to go in its two-level demo on display. Though the areas shown (the alternate reality versions of Nottingham and Manchester) had been seen before, Price used the opportunity to show and talk about some gameplay elements that up until recently were unknown.
There are good video game protagonists, and there are bad video game protagonists.
Abby deserves to be number 1.
He was created to appease the poison colored haired employees at Naughty Dog and their fantasy of hating all of their fathers for lack thereof. This was the worst case of a company that was in charge of a media hating their own fans.
Streamers would straight up be reported or even banned for letting Abby die in the boss fight while playing as a fake female that has a man's motion capture.
Abby as a human wouldn't exist in a ruined world with that musculature because there wouldn't be enough available protein in the world to maintain all that manly muscle mass unless cannibalism was Introduced.
Abby wasn't just terrible for the games narrative but in totality with the media reputation included. If that wasn't so tarnished the fans would have already gotten a 3rd game in the once loved series.
And with that flat chest having Abby as the main character would title the Game The Last of Us Tranz 3 Parts removed
I disagree that max is unlikable. Chloe is infinitely more unlikable in my opinion.
Other "game-type metaverse" projects in the works
Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.
Yeah, although I’m worried if it does come back idiots will say it’s jumping on the metaverae trend not realising it did this years ago
They'd have a hard time doing that if it's called Playstation Home 2. That raises the question of what the first one was.
Given you're talking about online speeds and connectivity, not the PS5 itself, you're not escaping loading screens.
SSD speeds so quick you could open a door in PS Home to walk your Avatar through a portal to launch a game.
They could do something like Peach's Castle in Mario 64 and your library of titles are the portraits
@ Jin:” Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.”
I second that plus a vr option added to it
There's still IMVU and Second Life but they're not quite like PS Home. Btw folks the Home restoration project is still going and they have brought Home back online through the PS3 emulator. So if y'all interested in goin back HOME there's that.
He just said it was ahead of its time. Super slow HDD made it awful when traversing areas.
It was trash 🗑️ and it still is. Walking around to go into stores etc is cringe and makes no sense at all. The hype around metaverse is totally overblown
@OptimusDK
You don’t speak for everyone. Many people enjoyed it. But I do agree with the Metaverse being overblown.
please people: if you're not gonna comment about the article, why even bother posting?
Let me be the first to say that this is excellent news for the PS3 fans.
If you like FPS games then this game seems like a must have.
