Recent PS3s, if you're in Europe, can't play PS2 games - they lack the required magic dust that launch models made a selling point of. To be honest, PS2 games tend to look a bit crappy when they're upscaled on a HDTV, but Reeves has suggested that in addition to the PS2 SingStar games being able to run natively on a PS3, SCEE are looking into other titles which also might be worth the time to convert, according to this German site (credited url).
From the mid-1980s to the early part of the 2000s, light gun rail shooters were a staple in both arcade and home system gaming. Arguably, the genre started to really hit its stride in the mid-1990s. While games like Time Crisis, Virtual Cop, and House of the Dead, among others, dominated both the home system and arcade space, some one relegated to only home game systems. Today, we’ll be talking about a little-known cult game published by Sony called Project: Horned Owl. This game was developed by Alfa Systems, and all in all, this is a fun game.
Keiichiro Toyama—the creator and original director of the 1999 Silent Hill—shared his personal thoughts on the recently announced remake by Konami, reflecting on what the project means to him after more than two decades:
“I felt something similar when the game was adapted into a movie. It deeply moved me to see the names of the characters and locations I had created come to life visually, even though I wasn’t directly involved. That wouldn’t have been possible without the continued support of the fans and the dedication of the developers who’ve kept the series alive.
I’m really looking forward to seeing how the remake evolves this time. With the advanced technology we now have, I’m sure I’ll be surprised by how the game is reimagined. Since the original was built for the first PlayStation, there will naturally be challenges—like the camera and controls—but I’m eager to see bold and creative solutions to those elements.”
Haha Not only is bold and creatively not what the industry wants, it’s not what most people want.
They want to get scammed and pay twice for a thing they already own.
I’m sure many would want bold and creative done well, but that’s easier said than done. I like variety so give me a little bit of everything, done well of course.
Was the SH2 remake even bold? Or was it more or less just a 1 to 1 over the shoulder remake?
it was not. it greatly expanded the areas and puzzles to the point where it felt like an entirely new game. the enemies and boss fights were given a MASSIVE upgrade. the abstract daddy fight in particular was incredible. and the team added two new endings.
Game Rant interviews Plants vs. Zombies composer Peter McConnell about honoring the series’ quirky roots, adapting its themes, and now going vinyl.
The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
I thought the new Singstar for the PS3 lets you play tracks from the PS2 Singstar disc not actually emulating the full game. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Well, only time will tell us that boys and girls.
I think when sony has retired the ps2, they might add bc through emulation..just be patient.
But i was watching the leipziq conference with this mr. reeves and..hehe i hate to say this but damn, what a bad presenter he is! I mean he was talking as if someone has holding a gun to his balls:( so nervous and he never smiled once during the whole conference.
Compared him to hirai, he presents like a 10 year old:) hehe
just had to post this:)
Is is me or was he really that bad?
i didnt buy my ps3 to play ps2 cry me a riverrrrrrrr
Hahahahaha your oh so powerful PS3 cant even play PS2 games hahahahaha, what a joke! Hahahahaha, good thing the PS2 didnt have any good games to play, just like the PS3 hahaahahaha!
And this my friends, is why I bought a 60gb EU/UK PS3; only games I possess that don't run on it perfectly is the old Ratchet and Clanks. Everything else I chuck at it seems to work fine
Note Microsoft can't be arsed getting half of XBOX (1) library of games games working on 360 either.
