Fallout London hasn't exactly had an ideal launch—crashing issues have been reported by players—but overall reaction is still posititve.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is uncanny. This school management sim bears a startling resemblance to Two Point Campus, especially when it comes to planning and decorating rooms. Be sure to add a window and a radiator, along with a plant or rubbish bin. Indeed, certain aspects are almost identical – it’s just like revisiting Two Point Campus, only something is…off. It’s the visual style that leads to the uncanny valley feeling, using a low-poly PlayStation/Saturn aesthetic. An odd choice, considering the 32-bit consoles didn’t have a great amount of management sims. The PS1 did have Theme Hospital though – with Two Point Hospital being Campus’ predecessor, so we guess we can give it a pass on its artistic intent."
I almost bought this yesterday lol. Then I remembered I have 1000 games I need to play and I would probably touch this once.
After being forced under the map with no way to escape, Helldivers 2 was an option added to force respawn so they can get back to action.
UBI will make SC conviction multi since they can make money from it by selling in USA as well as europe
RIP FLOP BOX 360
Hum...this is wierd. First, EA says they made more money on the PS3 (few months back) and now Ubisoft says the same. Something about people not buying games and stuff...just..not fitting here anymore.
Still, nothing beats NDS and those damn crappy games they've gotten from Ubi.
EDIT - Looking at the diagram more closely, something seems off. I know some companies Q1 of the next year start a fewmonths before the year begins, or a few months after, so I assume this is the case for Ubisoft talkinga bout Q2 sales of 08-09. So the 6 months of 2008/09 that I think the description may be referring to if anything, what would that mean in terms of actual months. Is that from april to 0ctober, or a future estimation.
When we look at the software sales its always usa so we think the xbox 36 is winning but not it isn't ps3 is winning worldwide.
No way Ps3 sold more software for Ubi and Ea now... That's gotta be pretty telling for these 3rd party comapanies and maybe this is the reason why Ea has been making the Ps3 the lead on a lot of their newer games.
Strange days. 14% stock drops, 20% software increases... this gen is the most unpredictable one in years.
Go Sony! :D
That's pretty cool.
