Sony America's, Senior Director of Corporate Communications, David Karraker has been quoted† as telling the world that, "They've (Microsoft) got the hardcore gamer - that's the 10-million figure", when countering the launch of the Xbox Elite.
Continuing his attack on the Elite, he commented "...the challenge is how do you grow the consumer outside of the hardcore demographic. We don't feel like splintering your market further is the way to do that." Plus, he notes, "From the developer side, they [the developers] still have to develop for the lowest common denominator - the Core SKU..."
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.
Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion
Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*
*As per Wikipedia
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.
...but as usual, you'd have been better off just shutting the f*ck up.
This is a completely optional SKU, designed ENTIRELY for those who are interested in the optimum HD content experience, as well as the content available through Marketplace. This has NO effect on gaming...PERIOD.
Add this comment to that 10 things sony shouldn`t have said.
Hes right about the devs though, they will have to make games for the core system not the elite. But this elite is bound to increase MS sales which is good for them. bad for sony.
This isn't EXACTLY the opposite to what SONY is doing?..... *just asking the obvious for sure.*
MS done the same by commenting on the PS3 i dont really think they should be saying these kinda things, and when you consider the 360 been out for a long time, its doing as good as the PS3 with graphics, so i have no more to say but please everyone no arguing.
