Two highly anticipated PS3 games have been released, Heavenly Sword and Lair, and to the surprise of many, only one scored decent while the other bombed. PX360 discusses what went wrong and asks if Sony can regain lost ground.
Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.
Used to own all these quirky JRPG on ps3 good times. Wish I would have kept them all
This could be fun as they make great tables. Go big or go extinct. Prime your senses for a neural handshake and step into the cockpit of a Jaeger. It is on you to cancel the apocalypse when Pacific Rim Pinball comes to Pinball FX on May 16.
Microsoft just posted the third quarter of its 2024 fiscal financial results. The software maker made $61.9 billion in revenue and a net income of $21.9 billion during Q3. Revenue is up 17 percent, and net income has increased by 20 percent.
Xbox content + services up 62% while hardware down 31%... seems about right with the way they tout you don't need the hardware to play. People can play on their phones or smart tv or other means. I don't hardly play on my consoles directly since getting devices like the logitech g-cloud and ps portal. Which is to also say I have been playing more digital than physical because of these devices.
Too expensive hardware when others offer the same or more for less? Good work, Green Team.
"Despite some early successes for Xbox games on rival platforms, Xbox hardware is down by a massive 31 percent this quarter."
"Without Activision Blizzard, Microsoft’s overall gaming revenue would have actually declined this quarter."
"Xbox content and services would have only been up a single percent without Activision Blizzard..."
"It looks like next quarter is going to be a similar story for gaming at Microsoft, too."
That is crazy... so A/B/K is carrying the whole Xbox gaming.
Oh and Microsoft will be fine. Windows, Office and Cloud are growing with each pc purchase.
Demise??? lol!!!! Remember, that is like writing off a sprinter 10 meters into the 100 meter dash!!! They would be wise to not count them down and out yet. There is a long long way to go
It comes from a dedictated X360 website
it should be x360's demise
HS is now the top selling game all over EU
ps3 beats x360 10:1 in JAPAN and 3:1 in EU
x360 is the least selling console in the world
www.amazon.co.uk
www.hmv.co.uk
although ps3 is at no2 on HMV (UK's biggest retailer chain)
x360 is nowhere in sight
PEOPLE complain to the MOD about this being SPAM
An Xbox 360 site writing about the PS3? Lol. This is so stupid.
Chances are that most ProSony people didn't even listen to the podcast. As it is quite long.
And just decided they didn't like the title of it. So they are complaining.
I realize I can't prove this 100% but I would say it is a strong theory.
i just rented it yesterday and i already beat it. 5 hours;
so much for boo-ray making the games longer. and whats even worst is the fighting is boring and just the same 3 guys over and over and over.
if any one hasn't played i'll explain, go to one room, kill 10 guys go to next room kill 15 guys go to the next room kill 12 guys, rinse and repeat for 5 hours. and the boss battles are WAY to long and point less.
5/10 and thats being nice cuz the visuals are good if you look past the frame rate issues.
