Tomonobu Itagaki, the creator of Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden, is a man that likes to speak his mind and do things his way. He's been an evangelist of Xbox right from its introduction but the launch of PlayStation 3 has seen his studio's attention shift its Xbox-exclusive focus slightly.
A revamped version of Ninja Gaiden: Black is already in the works for PS3 and Itagaki talks exclusively to CVG about his future plans for some of our favourite titles.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
He had better be making Ninja Gaiden 2. The original on the xbox was one of my favorite games, and it is way past due for a continuation on the 360!
Yes thats true...but I like how in the beginning the interviewer said he was changing allegiances but during the whole interview he said nothing of the sort... Funny... I dont know why they say Virtual Fighter is the best fighter it just looks like an arcade fighter.
From the interview:
"Finally, how do you see the Japanese game industry five years down the line? Which platform(s) do you think will be dominant in Japan?
Itagaki: Once I decided to start developing games for the Xbox, I realised that there is no point to thinking of things that relate to only one country. We are the transmitters, and the world is the receiver. That way of thinking won't change -- not today, not tomorrow."
Although he does know the answer to that...its PS3 baby, P-S-3 !!!
You think the PS3 will out do the Wii?, the Wii is the DS of console's over there. He does know the answer to that... and that's why he said what he did even though it's the truth but at the same time he's making title's on 360 and PS3; what else is he going to say.
Whoa Whoa Tomonobu is not making games for ps3 his underlings made a port of BLACK thats all.. Get your facts straight GReen
