Thanks for beta-testing our Software RRODlings

Shadow Man5338d ago

anytime. I love Beta Testing.

wxer5338d ago

"anytime. I love Beta Testing"

then get back there and beta test my game for me

TheBlackSmoke5338d ago

Not to rub it in, but really after playing this on my 47" hdtv this game looks wayyy better than the original. To call this game 360 leftovers is retarded. The 360 lost out on this one big time, you 360 owners have been screwed out of the true ng2 experience.

raztad5338d ago (Edited 5338d ago )

Sorry I agree not more with the Beta testing thing. In this game the xbuts barely got into the ALPHA test phase.

NG2 is clearly a piss poor experience in comparison with Sigma 2.

Thanks for the ALPHA testing x-buts.

Same here

Offtopic

Platinum for Batman:AA (my first platinum).

Edit: Thx, cheer up man, Bubble + for you.

ExgamerLegends25338d ago

Freaking wow it seems like years since my ps3 broke. Should be getting a new one soon though.
:( No firmware 3 for me, no mag beta, no uncharted beta, and now no Sigma demo. I feel left out in the cold.

chanto235338d ago

Game looks way better than on 360. I wasn't expecting such a jump in quality but i'm impressed. Day one purchase (again LOL)

Rob0g0rilla5338d ago

On the same page as you and I agree. I purchased the 360 version for $10 a couple months ago from Best Buy. Sigma looks a lot better and I'll be purchasing this game again.

TheBlackSmoke5338d ago

Ive been playing for the last hour and man what an improvement. Looks sharp as hell and cameras a lot better. Ayane is full of win plus the sixaxis boobies work. I can tell co-op is going to be addictive as hell online. Those worried about the difficulty being gimped..dont, its still tough as hell which is the way it should be. Im sold, day one purchase for sure.

ChozenWoan5338d ago

Was planning to wait about 6 months for this game to drop in price but I don't see that happening. This game just became a day 1 for me, I'm just gonna have to live on PB&J sandwiches for a week and don't leave the house... hmmm shouldn't be too hard as I'll be too busy playing NGS2 all that time. =)

Sarcasm5338d ago

Wow it's a pretty good demo in terms of length and tryout.

ultimolu5338d ago

Woo-hooooo! Downloading too! n_n

lordgodalming5338d ago

Started the DL this morning. Cannot swing Dragon Sword until after work.

dragunrising5338d ago

I just created a Japanese account just to try it out :-) If anyone is interested in trying out the demo, its not all that hard to create one.

Dante's inferno... an excellent GoW inspired game. So sad the sequels will never be.

LoveSpuds555d ago (Edited 555d ago )

I recall enjoying it well enough at the time, but it wasn't a patch on God of War 3 which came out around the same time I think.

I own it and fired it up on my PS3 about 6 months ago and time hadn't been particularly kind to it although it still very much nailed the atmosphere and it is a cool as he'll setting and universe.

Inverno554d ago

Dante's Inferno needs the GOW treatment. No cut camera, with a real hellish depiction of the 9 circles and a story as dark and as serious would be amazing.

Yui_Suzumiya554d ago

Still pretty amazing there was a PSP version that was actually pretty good. I remember playing it 10 years ago. I had the PS3 version when it first came out and loved it.

Hellcat2020554d ago

Ahh the memories of playing Heavenly Sword
Such a amazing experience

LoveSpuds554d ago

Yup, I remember being blown away with Heavenly Sword. I remember holding out hope that they would go back and add trophy support as a incentive to go back and replay the game, but I don't think they ever did?

Yui_Suzumiya554d ago

I couldn't beat the final boss though! Spent several days trying but eventually gave up, lol. Still enjoyed it though.

refocusedman554d ago

heavenly sword was such a short, but amazing game. that game should be prime material to be made into a download only remaster.

YoungKingDoran554d ago

I really enjoyed Castlevania, but struggled to get into it again reattempting it a few years back. I still think it does another of things well; story, presentation, level varietily and art style at least. Gameplay maybe has not stood test of time unfortunately which makes it a chore to get through.

They need to make a true sequel to Ninja Gaiden 2, that was the most satisfying combat I've experienced in a hack n slash game.

micdagoat191588d ago

been playing 1&2 on and off since they were released. I usually will play until I get frustrated then take another year off lol. Nver tried 3 or the 4th one even though they are in my backlog.

Domestupidname1588d ago

I tried to go back to Sigma but good god those controls are just insufferable. Couldn't do it.

Very nice, but playing on original console is better - unless, of course, the console's tech is way too old and incompatible with the current tech standards.
The emulators must always be developed, though. It is good as a way to preserve and play old games.

MoshA1870d ago

Maybe in 5 years peasants will have access to our nostalgic games lol.

Casepb1870d ago

Backwards compatible PS5 is their only hope.

boing11870d ago

Only hope? Only hope for what? Mainstream console gaming is crushing mainstream PC gaming for several years now. You are extremely out of tune with reality.

mkis0071870d ago (Edited 1870d ago )

Consoles are cheap, would think not being able to buy one would make one a peasant. Personally, I dont understand the mindset; why not own everything if you can?

On top of my gaming pc, having a ps4 and Switch is a must for me. ( also have an X but it has been relegated to uhd player/ red dead 2 machine)

What is an extra couple hundred bucks to someone who loves to play.

ShadowWolf7121870d ago

A gas bill.
A light/water bill.
A car payment.
About a week or two's worth of groceries.
An unexpected expense that they can now cover.

I can go on. That is one hella privileged mindset there, broski. lol

mkis0071870d ago

Shadow

Sorry I was referring to his use of the word peasant. Obviously meant to troll, but its fun to dissmantle the use of it.

PurpHerbison1870d ago (Edited 1870d ago )

It was a joke.

MoshA1869d ago

Because you can't enjoy the best games due to 30 fps. Thank God for that. If you care about fps more than graphics/combat/story/music then you don't deserve anything but LoL, Apex, WoW etc.

boing11870d ago

Care to give an example of such nostalgic game that console players would love to have? Because so far all I read about are poor attempts of launching 15 years old console games on PC with a playable framerate.

mkis0071870d ago (Edited 1870d ago )

Why would you want the ps3 version when the ps4 version will always be better than even an improved ps3 emulated one? Uncharted 1 was converted to Uncharted 2's engine on the drake collection. Runs at 60fps with uncharted 3 or better level graphics.
