Destructiod: "Last Monday I asked Jesse Divnich, Vice President at EEDAR -- a company devoted to videogame analytics, research, and forecasting -- for his thoughts on what the Big Three console manufacturers may, and should, bring to the table at E3."
Genuine Enabling Technology was seeking damages, claiming the tech allowing PlayStation consoles and controllers to communicate infringes its rights.
Sounds like patent trolling they tried the same thing against Nintendo with the same pattern.
Motion and control input traversing over higher and lower frequencies seperate from each other allowing the controller to do both
So to recoup the money Genuine is going to take on Nintendo or Microsoft next. I hate patent lawyers they are some of the worst bottom feeders out there.
Microsoft has announced the Microsoft Rewards app on Xbox will be discontinued in April and has confirmed that weekly streaks will also be coming to an end.
Other nominees include games like SimCity & Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
There are some good nominees in this list that are deserving to be inducted also, but I feel Metroid has had the most impact on the industry out of all of these. Look how Metroid influenced the evolution of the Castlevania games, and the "Metroidvania" subgenre of games have become a prevailing force in gaming today. Especially now, Metroidvanias are bigger than ever.
I can very much see Resident Evil being added later too, bc it really did popularize and define the survival horror genre. I would say that one is next in line.
If any Metroid game should get the honor it should be Super Metroid , it's perfection in my eyes . 30 years later and I still feel it's the most epic shit ever .
The GBA remake deserves it or Super Metroid, the original was a very sloppy and rushed game programmed in 3 months and it shows.
If you've never played the remake, it's absolutely a must play, fixes basically every flaw in the game. Check out ExoParadigmGamer's comparison video.
Damn that picture is creepy!
It will be interesting to see if Nintendo can manage to strike gold two times in a row. If they just release nothing more than a Wii in HD it is going to be a major letdown.
Sony's E3 looks like it is going to be yet another epic show with hours of massive exclusives thanks to their total graphical dominance and massive 21 first party studios.
Not sure why Microsoft is even showing up this year. The 360 is in last place and has nothing but downgraded PC ports being dumped on it.
