"Last night Sony kicked off the San Francisco Vita Hill Social Club, giving gamers an early opportunity to check out the PlayStation Vita. Sony’s new handhed offers a slew of new features, and one of the big draws is the touch screen. The event featured a few of Sony’s flagship titles, some new to the portable space, and for the most part the games shown off were impressive. Though if the games aren’t priced right, it could mean the Vita will get off to a slow start."
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
A relic of its time or a buried treasure from the past?
I was really hoping this would have made it into one of the collections. Like how they did with the GoW PSP games.
I loved this game. It was like an extension of the first one. Why haven't we gotten an HD release yet?
Sony should have tried harder to support the Vita. It ended up just a solid emulation machine that happens to have a handful of classics.
I really like Uncharted:Golden Abyss on ps vita it would be dope if they remaster it for PlayStation 5
Pretty decent preview, I don't mind the prices of the memory cards since I'll be buying the games from retail so I'll only need the cheapest one.
I don't plan on buying a Vita right away, but this preview did make me want one more than I did before. I also agree that it's a shame Sony is still doing the same crap they always do with their memory cards, but there's not much to be done about it.
@ morkendo
i've seen a pre-demo of it but only shown the fire C!!
"I was told there will be an option to take these swipe prompts out, and I hope there will be, because they just scream “gimmicky."
There is a god.
"With so many other options for gaming on the go, the Vita really needs to set itself apart from the competition in areas other than graphics."
The only other options for me are my iphone and ipad, which are basically the same experience. The vita is different, not because of graphics, but because of the combination of analog sticks, buttons, and front and rear touch screen. Add to that PS3 and PSN connectivity and i'd say Vita is the BEST option for gaming on the go or on a portable. Still a day one purchase for me!
