Gamer.Blorg writes of how the PS3 was able to outsell the Wii in the previous week thanks to the release of the popular Dynasty Warrior 5 in Japan and the limited production capabilities of the Wii.
This is good news for both PS3 and Blu Ray fans as more hardware sales for the PS3 means better software sales for PS3 games and Blu Ray movies.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
The new unit comprises over 500 developers representing the entire World of Warcraft development team.
I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.
Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.
No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo
I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.
Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
Taking a trip back to Housemarque's forgotten platformer.
The cultural differences in taste are so strange... I'd never in a billion years want that abomination in my collection. Go figure... The Japanese have this 1 game mentality that they buy 1 game, beat it to compleation before buying another. That's why so many western games "like Halo and R&C" seem to do poorly at 1st... it's only months later do we see people have actually bought these games, just not in droves like they do in England and America.
Good to see the ps3 is getting some positive attention for a change. I was getting sick of the media bashing it for no good reason
Well, whatever floats their boat I guess. They seem to be super crazy about Dynasty Warriors, given the game hasn't changed one bit in the last 6 years.
I'm one of those people who like Dynasty Warriors. Anyone else?
Also it's Dynasty Warriors 6 not 5. The first in the series was only for for US/PAL. Dynasty Warriors 2 = Shin Sangoku Musou 1. Dynasty Warriors 6 = Shin Sangoku Musou 5.
how is 6 any diff from the rest rather than the HD part? anyway, the underdog will win. ps3 ftw.
