Robert Garriott, president of NCsoft North America, took some time out of his busy E3 schedule to discuss the NCsoft and Sony partnership with Robert Summa.
Some existing NCsoft online titles will be coming to the PlayStation 3 in addition to new IP. Those titles that do come out for the PS3 will be exclusive to the system, according to Garriott
From Xfire: "It's been estimated that roughly half of the video games ever released on the market can no longer be downloaded or purchased. Whether this is exactly correct is not the point. Rather, we think that either way, the video game industry, as a whole, has done a terrible job at preserving video games and making older titles available to play for future generations."
You can play all of these games still lol. The headline is just misleading. Funny is that there is not one game in the list that you really can't play anymore due to it being online only games.
One you actually legit cannot play AT ALL is Noby Noby Boy. I miss turning my brain off and messing around in that game, was so psyched to re-download it when i rebought a ps3 slim, but you cant, even if it's in your downl library, along with a few other obscure PS3 games i had.
I would replace Transformers Devastation with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron tho.
Transformers Devastation was good but not as good as Fall and War of Cybertron they should be on the list. SH 2 I can play any time I want since it came free in a $10 Xbox I bought used. The Simpsons Arcade I have on my PS3 surprised the Xmen Arcade game is not on this list or the Turtles arcade game either.
HPP: Continuing our rankings of superhero games of the past three decades, here are our rankings for the top superhero video games of the 2000s.
It might be a new decade, but I’m going to make the same old mistakes and try to predict what I think will happen in free-to-play gaming over the next calendar year. Joining me on this descent into madness will be Q and Mike, who’s choices on my predictions will be added after they’re made on the Free-to-Play Podcast...
So... what do you guys think they'll bring? COH and guild wars would be such a pain in the ass to port, i don't know how you could do it.
But ya NCsoft isn't known for amazing MMO's, of course there really are only 3 good ones.
1. World of Warcraft
2. Lord of the Rings Online
3. Eve Online
doubt WoW will go Ps3...but i think something like Guild Wars suitable :D I have that on the pc but don't play it on my pc because im taken bck mostly by other game son the pc lol
ermmm EVE Online be great i always want to try that out but not bothered
ya WoW will stay on PC, Blizzard has never been to keen to deal with consoles, its a lot fo extra work, considering they don't really need the extra sales.
Never been a fan of MMOs, but I've heard good things about Lineage, and I've always been intrigued by the concept of City of Heroes.
And thanks to whomever edited the submission by embedding the video. I'll have to make sure to include that next time :).
"Did we mention that not only are our MMO games are coming to the ps3, It'll be free of charge to play without monthly charges"
Just Saying.
