Sony and Microsoft have to one-up each other with their technology.

Day 1: Natal presented

Day 2: PS3motion presented

Day 3: Natal will be used in actual games

Day 4: PS3motion will be easy to integrate into all game types; devkits already in the hand of 1st party developers!

Day 5: Natal will replace controllers in the home; devkits in the hands of third party developers!

Day 6: PS3motion will be easy to develop for; strong for a spring 2010 release

Day 7: Natal will be a part of everyone's home and is integral to the future of the 360. No 360 will be without a natal in the future

Day 8: PS3motion is essential for the future of Sony

Seriously, it's just one one-up-manship after another since they brought them out at E3.

Meanwhile Nintendo is laughing at both these idiots, and about to release their new gimmick that will be just as "essential" to the other consoles, two years after Nintendo has sold a buttload of consoles.

PirateThom5465d ago

True, true!

Actually, I think the "one up manship" is going to be for nothing unless Sony and Microsoft plan to give the devices away. Wii is a success because the waggle was standard and it gave developers little option - you want to make a Wii game, it has to use the remote.

Natal and Sony's do not have that luxury. They could be the next Power Glove rather than the next Wii remote, because devs don't have to develop games for them to develop on the system and they're both an afterthought, no matter how impressive the tech is.

If Microsoft really want to make Natal a hit, it needs to be a day 1 thing on their next console, not something x years down the line to cash in on Wii's popularity. Same with Sony.

da720izcumin5465d ago

but, you should not forget that NATAL is already well know in the maintream or will soon be....
i am sure that in a year, you ask you grandma if she knew what NATAL was...she would asnwer you with "o you mean the motion-sensing peripheral for da 360...ya of course i know about it...we use it all the time at the retirement house.!!!"
lol....more or less...

SprSynJn5465d ago

Pirate, I agree with you on most of your points, but I think including the Natal thing and Sony's motion controller as standards on their next lineup will alienate the customers that currently enjoy both the current lineup of systems. I am thinking that is why they decided to bring them out at this point, instead of working on new systems. Having them as add-ons may not sell as much, but it is an excellent idea for those of us who prefer the standard controller to a Wii-mote style. Which is the audience Sony has stated they are aiming for.

The Status of Every PlayStation Franchise

Sony owns a fair few iconic franchises - many dating right back to the original PlayStation. But while we’re pretty familiar with the likes of ongoing series such as God of War, Horizon, and Gran Turismo, there are plenty of PlayStation franchises that haven’t seen the light of day in a long time. So in this video, we’re going to be taking a look at the status of PlayStation’s many IPs, and checking in on when we last heard from them.

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.

Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.

Goodguy012d ago

The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.
