Just show us the 360 and PS3 versions of it already.... what they are doing here is the equivalent of passing CG for gameplay. You have to wonder what kind of graphic cards they are using to show off these videos and how many people will realistically buy them. I can understand how its more about gameplay but really.... that title says it all.
This is what is kind of screwed up about this situation. Beta tester are normally compensated by companies for testing their product for bugs and providing feedback but in this case the beta tester is "partly" paying the company to beta test for them. How f****d is that?!??! That is basically like a prostitute paying a john for providing her services to him and the john acting like she (or he) should be just happy that john provided the opportunity. ohhhhhh lordy!
i wonder what will be their excuse if Enslaved flops harder than HS?
seriously... how old r u?
i have to admit that this is maybe the best looking special edition console ever!
I am currently replaying Uncharted 2 again and still feel like its the game to beat storytelling-wise, gameplay-wise and graphic-wise. So my question to this dude is: If Uncharted 2 should not have been GOTY which game should have been? I usually find it hard to name a game as the definitive GOTY but Uncharted 2 clearly is.
I too expected PS Plus weekly updates (at least in terms of game discounts) but to have them only once a month seems a little restrictive. I want to get PS Plus.... i really do... but like some dudes on a podcast stated its way too goods-based rather than service-based for now so if u already have or are not interested in the discounted (or "free") games its pretty much useless. I could nevertheless see the appeal of it.
facebook is shady.... i cannot help to feel that backup data from facebook is being stored and kept by weird government agencies with questionable ethics.
How will it possible to do video reviews or even previews of these 3DS games?
It is simply because they had more to prove than anyone else. They did a great job at it. However, I do think Sony and Microsoft are keeping their real juicy reveals for Gamescom and TGS. Feels like Nintendo pretty showed their full hand for the rest of this fiscal year whereas Microsoft and Sony have some aces hidden up their sleeves. Great showing nevertheless by Nintendo (aside from the smug "I told you so" speech by Reggie.
I have to agree with this headline. After hearing all the good things about the 3DS from people who played it I am putting off my 3DTV purchase until they come out with a TV that could pull off what nintendo has with the 3DS. Nintendo basically made all those 3DTVs that require 300$ glasses look like old tech. Day one purchase for me. Makes you wonder if Sony were planning 3D that required glasses for the PSP2.... I sure hope not because if they do that would be a BIGGGGGGG mistake.
anyone who believes this is going to go for under 299$ is delusional. its not going to happen. Microsoft just have to compare to how they are screwing over their customers with price of add-on devices and at 299$ it looks like the deal of the century.
It would make sense since for the average consumer it may seem like a better deal than the ps3 slim at 299$ although we all know its far from the truth.
Vitality Sensor+ FTW!
Getting really tired of GT5 trailers.... this game better come out this year.
In all honesty PSP2 NEEDS to wow desperately. The 3DS just needs to be marginally better than the DS/DSi/DSxL to be a success critically and sales-wise. PSP was a good portable device but Sony seem to going against Apple in terms of tech so they need to bring their A game and make the ipod touch look like old tech compared to the PSP2.
felt the need to say that.... a film would be cool but in all honesty i don't know why they don't make animated cg movie like "Beowolf" for movies based on video games that are not storyline driven. Real life movie interpretations of most cartoons and video games just don't work.
I think its pretty logical if you think of it since the only Mario Party on the Wii was more designed for the gamecube originally just like Zelda was as well. I really cannot understand why Nintendo would not come out with this title already.
I see what you are saying in terms of Bayonetta's combat/combo system and the benefit of new IP status (although between me and you, Bayonetta feels like a DMC spin-off in many respects). I really enjoyed Bayonetta and pleasantly surprised by it.... but from what I have seen it would seem that God of War 3 is more polished (visually at least). Your points are valid but sequels to games like Halo and Gears of War or even Left for Dead seem less likely get scrutinized by IGN than God of War 3 h...
Dude... Trust me I have no freaking idea why this game has people all "excited".... oh wait.... nevermind :P
But seriously, i don't get it either.... Is it a more japanese version of leisure suit larry or something.... that's what all these N4G shots associated with news articles tell me.
