Using Screen Digest data, Nick Parker delivers his verdict on the future of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo's console.
At Leipzig, SCEE announced a series of exciting technological enhancements to PS# and PSP. They are no doubt crucial to long term cross platform consumption and broad media supply for both devices. However, the industry reaction was luke warm because what the industry needs now is games, games, and more games.
Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.
Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.
Last time I remember Helldivers is doing great with players both PC and Playstation.
It's crazy that you keep making accounts just to be a troll. You went through the trouble of making it just to try to stir the fanboy pot. 🤡 activities.
What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.
There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap
Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.
Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.
Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.
Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them
2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
Activision and Raven Software's 2006 action role-playing game, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, has found its way to the Xbox Store.
Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem
I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.
Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.
Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.
BUT the analyst doesnt take into account that a 399$ ps3 might be launched this year.
so 7.7 m by 2007 (without 399$ ps3)
perhaps 10 m ps3 by 2007 (with 399$ ps3 and the 80gig reduced to 499$)
360 is already dead in both JAPAN and EU.
COD 4 would be released only on ps3 in JAPAN.
x360 is finished. wii has already overtaken it.
It will comne down to wii vs ps3 in the long run.
However i expect the ps3 to reach 100 m consumers by 2010
WORLD: INSTALLED BASE BY PLATFORM...................... .
............................. .....2007............2009...... .....2011..
Sony Playstation 2.......112.6m.........119.9m. .......121.4m
Sony Playstation 3.......7.7m............38.7m. .........67.5m
Nintendo Wii................17.1m...... .....41.9m..........59.4m
Microsoft Xbox 360......13.9m...........26.8m ..........36.4m
Nintendo DS ...............60.5m.......... .99.3m..........142.9m
Sony PSP ...................29.8m...... .....51.7m..........74.1m
always base their predictions off of past history. Before Playstation Nintendo and Sega ruled the console front.
This time around it looks like Microsoft is getting the games support. Just like Sony used to. With most 3rd party games defecting from the Sony camp. As well as 360 getting the better versions of the majority of 3rd party games.
The way it looks right now 360 is leading as far as price and games catalogue is concerned.
just because i have a PS3. Wont be anytime soon but it will happen more then likely within the year. If they didnt make it work with the PS3 i would have no reason to own one but with the things they are doing with this little thing i can see myself finding some good uses for it in the near future
anyway
peace
So he seems to think the PS3 will be ahead by 2011, the Wii a close second and the 360 a distant third.
I guess anything's possible...
one thing you guys need to know though, if prices drop to 400 dollars, you know the PS3 will sell for the holidays even if it would have a miserable line up this year. at the end of the day, you know everyone wants a PS3, no matter who you are even if your a fanboy from the other side. its just that the price is too expensive thus, no install base= no 3rd party support.
