Speaking in a lengthy interview with Game Informer at CES, id Software's John Carmack has once again backed the Xbox 360, revealing that he believes Microsoft's development tools "are so much better than Sony's."
"We've got our PlayStation 3 dev kits, and we've got our code compiling on it. I do intend to do a simultaneous release on it. But the honest truth is that Microsoft dev tools are so much better than Sony's," said Carmack. "I think the decision to use an asymmetric CPU by Sony was a wrong one. There are aspects that could make it a winning decision, but they're not helpful to the developers."
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
hmmm, when this guy says it. doom3 is a good game, i honor his opinion! but you know everyone has its own.
Carmack is just a lazy programmer,that hates changes in the way he does things.Funny how all ID's games are comin too PS3 yet are outsourced cos he can't use PS3's 'Cell'.lol
What I think is that Carmack is much overpassed by events and chalengers are doing far more better engines and games...Doom 3 is not a fantastic game and was blown away by FarCry and other nice FPS...Hey Carmack, let's go and work!
for the 360. Will most likely land more exclusives due to ease of developing (lowers cost) and the largest and growing install base.
"his opinion"...but this is not the opinion of a auto mechanic. His opinion has weight-wheter you agree or not!
And he surely isn't in Microsoft's back pocket (he actually despises consoles and MS). So, he has no reason to BS. Must be true!
And as far as questioning his talents; he made the engine that runs Quake 4 & PREY as well as Doom 3. That engine is the only true challenger to the Unreal engine.
