Team 17 Studio Head Martyn Brown has praised Sony's newest PSP console, adding that the platform holder has made a wise move in embracing digital distribution as opposed to UMDs.
"I think it's fair to say that the UMD as a media format never really got going," he said, "and I think it's clever for Sony to embrace digital distribution."
Acquire, famous for games like Tenchu and Octopath Traveler, becomes KADOKAWA subsidiary. Can this mean a revival for beloved series?
I would kill to have a Way of the Samurai game with a huge budget and modern tech... The first game was one of my greatest joys on PS2 back in the day. And I really hope From Software will do something with Tenchu... I hate that they're just sitting on the IP like it doesn't even exist.
Tenchu would be superb in this day and age. Ninja and samurai games are hot right now and more is better.
Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?
Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.
Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida is interested in working on a brand new Final Fantasy Tactics game.
Not from you.
Knowing how you handled FF16 by trying to make it appeal to non-fans and changing the entire gameplay design I can see you changing Tactics to appeal to non-fans.
If they’re going to do this please give it to someone who wants to keep the game and genre in tact.
I wouldn't mind a new FF Tactics longs they keep the tactical elements of Tactics in it as well as a very in depth story. Which FF Tactics years ago has by far one of the best stories in the series.
I think we can all agree on this,the PsP Go was an excellent decision.
Oreally?!?!
Like I didn't knew that.... meh
I may be a bit oldfashioned here, but isnt the difference between pirated games and purchased games for me is a proper cover, and a fancy storage medium?
I like to be able to hold something in my hands that i purchased.
Anyway, a bigger display would have been it; smart decisions there sony :p
The main thing i've been wondering is that because it's strictly digital distribution, are there going to be games that are available to download that otherwise wouldn't have fit on a umd?
I know sony isn't trying to divide the 2 systems (psp go/psp3000) but there has to be some exclusives eventually for the psp go, it makes sense to me.
Me personally, i can't wait for the psp go, i am definitely getting this thing the day it hits stores. In fact, i just checked amazon and it's available for pre-order. I'm gonna put mine down for pre-order either today or on my next payday. I'm not sure if amazon preorder charges you the full $250 immediately. Anyone know?
I'm really considering getting this for GT PSP. With 16 gigs of memory it is a nice compliment to my PS3. So many awesome games.
