Sony Lightens the Load

It isn't too late for Sony's PS3 sales to soar. The only question is, in an attempt to lighten the load, has Sony jettisoned the parachute? More within...

Sony Playstation 3 is worth of winning!

Let's discuss about PLAYSTATION 3, the more discussions the more popular it gets. DO NOT mention anything about Xturd 360 and its games, it's a TABOO.

NINJAS RULE!

Real Gambler6031d ago

Dang, I never knew about it... I totally missed the other 16 articles that said so, up to now, in N4G ALONE!

Thank you for bringing this back. Keep doing it... You never know, it may take 40 attempts before everybody find out they have removed it on one PS3 SKU....

This is now article 17 about the loss of Backward Compatibility on ONE PS3 model... Could you imagine how many articles this will generate in N4G if they remove it in all the PS3 models? You know this could happen eventually. Wow, if we get 17 articles about it while it's still available if you care about PS2 BC, I can only imagine we will get 100 posts if they totally remove it... Keep up the good work : ) Somebody, somewhere, in the middle of desert, may not know about this yet.. Bring on the NEWS : )

I'm getting tired of all these dumb attacks on Sony and the PS3. And especially this new model at $399. Sony is doing what they can to drop the price. They can't get rid of the important parts that would really drop the price. If they did that it would be the PS2.5 instead of PS3. Time for people to stop talking about the price of the PS3. If you can't afford a PS3 you can't afford gaming period.

dale16031d ago

keep ps2 problem solved as for games for the ps3 theres plenty coming now so no problem there, these articles are starting to become very very boring
lets get back to red ring of death on the 360,s thats interesting and can we have the rumour the 360,s are having there circuits modded to not show the three rings fault at manufacturing confirmed or not include repaired consoles as well for this question
if this is true all 360 owners are in a whole lot of trouble as this is fault carries the 3 year warranty,all other faults are chargeable

omansteveo6031d ago

What are you talking about?

THUNDERMARE6031d ago

What he actually said.

Keep the PS2, problem solve.

pilotpistolpete6031d ago

Regardless of what you think of the BC removal, I think we can all agree that this simile is bad.

ActionBastard6031d ago (Edited 6031d ago )

You mean the average 360, HDTV owning gamer? Keep in mind $399 BD/PS3 vs $349 DVD/360.

Darkiewonder6031d ago

Do they know about the extra Features that come with the system if they aren't told about it?

ActionBastard6031d ago

Who buys anything moderately priced, nowadays, that doesn't know what it can do? Sure, gaming is the primary motivating factor. But there is no way after booting up a PS3 or 360 for that matter, anyone could come away thinking it only played games.

I'd buy the 60gb Ps3 at $400 or $450. Without BC I feel jipped.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC1h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer2h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

It was worrisome to begin with.

It's a niche genre with only a handful of hits that can stand the test of time.

Cacabunga1d 6h ago

I like the sound of that!! I will for sure never support these gaas games.
Sony must be shocked at gamer's reaction, making them cancel a few of these and hopefully go back to the good heavy hitters they had us used to..
now bring on that PSPro reveal and show us some SP 1st party awesomeness.

CrimsonWing692d ago

What’s to be unsure of!? Look at the ratio of success to failure!

DarXyde1d 10h ago

It's pretty ridiculous.

Imagine having a breadth of data at your disposal to see the statistically low success rate of these games, only to be laser focused on the exceptional case studies.

shinoff21832d ago

Yes. Stop all the live service bs.

jznrpg2d ago

Only a few will catch on. You need a perfect storm to be successful in GaaS and a bit of luck on top of that. But a potential cash cow will keep them trying and some will go out of business because of it.

MIDGETonSTILTS172d ago

Helldivers 2 manages just fine…

Keep production costs low… don’t just make custscenes until the mechanics and enemies are perfected first.

Make so much content that you can drip extra content for years, and the game already feels complete without them.

Most importantly: make weapons, enemies, levels, and mechanics that will stand the test of 1000 hours. This might require more devs embracing procedurally generated leveled, which I think separates Helldivers 2 from Destiny’s repetitiveness.
