Amy had "good sales for two hours" before PSN outage, says dev

Survival horror title Amy from French developer Vector Cell released on the PlayStation Network, but sold for only two hours before hackers knocked it out.

Still, those measly two hours saw "good sales" but publisher Lexis Numerique is re-launching Amy. We play Lana who's borderline zombie, helping a little girl.

I've never heard of this game but it looks good, I'll have to find out more about this.

Free speech anyone?

These hackers are pirates, looking for the pot of gold which is your wallet.

Some hackers hack for some sense of pride, others do it for reasons beyond ones understanding.

Whatever the case may be, hacking has not prove to be benifitial to anyone but the hackers themselves, go figure.

This game never released. What are they on about?

Ramas4581d ago (Edited 4581d ago )

yeah i don't get it too, was this game released and i missed it or what the hell? i was waiting for this game, but never seen any news about release date.

get2sammyb4581d ago

It's totally not out. Nor has it ever been. I refuse to believe that there are people out there that own this game.

I belive Lexis Numerique released the Red Johnson Chronicles around the time of the PSN outage, but not Amy.

We've only really seen a couple of trailers for Amy. If it released and had "sold well" there would be full playthroughs of the game on YouTube.

So the actual dev of this game says it launched and told you the problems surrounding the launch and you say no it didn't? What are you smoking? These are the people who made the game! Why the f*ck would they lie? I swear gamers get...seriously, WTF!?!?!

yesmynameissumo4581d ago

If it was released, why are they still developing it?

earbus4581d ago

The outage actually made the news here.

turning point had a really great story / concept... it just was very generic in its game play.

LucasRuinedChildhood99d ago (Edited 99d ago )

Haze is a bad game but Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty makes it seem like a captivating work of art. haha. Fuck that game

Shellshock 2: Blood Trails isn't on this list but it might be the worst game I've ever played. I got it as a present from my mam and when I saw the box, my life flashed before my eyes thinking of the Metacritic score: https://www.metacritic.com/...

I also received Turning Point: Fall Of Liberty as a present from another family member. Bless their hearts for trying but ... oh Lord. My uncle gave my Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time and MGS2 though. 😎

Was it really that bad? I recall trying the demo and not liking it, but that's just me not liking FPS games.

People I know who played it and like FPS games mostly came to the conclusion that it has a lot of room for improvement, but it's not nearly as bad as it's made out to be.

Don't know, my opinion on these games should be taken with a grain of salt.

mastershredder99d ago

Oof! yeah, Ride was a huge fumble they tried to market twice.
Haven Fall of the King was dog-shi7-tastic and should be a runner up to some of those.
I'd even nominate Legend of Kay. Heh Haze... there is no excuse for that one (just pretend Haze did not happen).

What's kinda funny about this is, that I have a theory that all these electronics are what are causing autism. You think back to about a generation ago and autism wasn't that wide spread, or we just didn't diagnose it. I feel that since all electronics put out an emf field that it can have adverse affects on a developing brain. No data or anything for this, just a theory I have.

ravinash2469d ago

It's only been in the last generation or two where metal health has been a thing that can be documented.
A lot more studies are going into it so we're understanding it better.
In the old days, people would have lived their entire lives with things like autism and not even know it.
After all most people who have autism are on the extreme end of the spectrum, so it might not always be obvious.

meka26112469d ago

Yea that's a good point, we still have a very long way to go in diagnosing and treating mental disorders. It's just very hard to do that, but I totally agree with you.
