I hope they fixed the slowdowns and the awful controls from AC4. I wanted to buy it, but the demo killed it completely for me. View

Well, it would be useful to have access to cheats or FAQs (both online, think of gamefaqs.com) while gaming... but yeah, the ressources needed would be pretty high. Besides, my Laptop is on pretty much all the time, so I don't need it. Still handy, though. View

I don't really care about the 8-Bit style, I think it's pretty cool, but the MegaMan 7&Bass/8 look would have done it for me as well.
What I really dislike is that they took out sliding and charging... View

Well, I am a big supporter of Homebrew and I can see why nobody - including me - cares about this.
I want the PS3 to be hacked. Yes, I admit it. Why do I want it to be hacked? For the same reason I have a CFW on my PSP. Complete region free-nes and Homebrew.
PS2 and PSX games on the PS3 are region locked. I understand why, lots o' paperwork (i.e. licensing issues, PAL/NTSC stuff, publishing rights, all that). The problem is, I don't really care. I have a console that CAN play my games, but isn't ALLOWED to because I imported them. I paid money for them, games that nevere saw the light of an European day. A CFW for PS3 would easily kill off that problem for me.
Homebrew... whenever you say that nowadays people think of ISO loaders, ripping tools, piracy in general. I don't. I love the idea of having a console that allows people to create their own games/apps. There are games out there that put some development studios to shame.
Search for the Homebrew (!) game "No Gravity". Do it. Download it, play it. It speaks for itself.
The problem is, piracy would harm sales, not of consoles, but of games. I don't pirate games on my PSP and I wouldn't do it with my PS3, but I am hardly the majority. I don't want the same thing that happens to the PSP right now to happen to the PS3. But I'm not naive enough to think hackers would include a "doesn't work with burned games" option. It's a double edged sword.

Java isn't really made for games, not even to speak about emulators. It' doesn't work, except they find some magic workarounds. It won't lead to a whole homebrew scene. It won't make my PS3 finally play my copy of Grandia 3. Java games on PS3 are nothing but a glimpse of what COULD be, but isn't for several reasons. View

No new IPs?

The World Ends With You
Last Remnant
Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes
Rapture
Kingdom Hearts Series (Look at the cover, it clearly says Square Enix)

And since we are at it:
Star Ocean 3 was made by tri-Ace and published by SE.
Valkyrie Profile 2 is made by tri-Ace and published by SE.
Grandia 3 was made by Game Arts and published by SE.

Here, take a look at this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

Look at the games SE actually DEVELOPED, not PUBLISHED since these are two completely different things.

Next time if you want to rant about something, do at least a little research before you start writing. View

Thank heavens! I like how more and more games are being released in Europe (although I'm still waiting for all the Tales Of games, Grandia 3, both MegaMan collections...). View

Thought about that myself some time ago.
With graphics, you can only go so far. Once we reached photorealism (which we are pretty close, look at the models in GTP5 for example) in games, there isn't much beyond that. Other styles like cel-shading are also almost perfected (that new Naruto title for PS3 looks just like the anime, if not better [compare: computer made graphics <-> handdrawn art]). Toy around a little with the draw distance in Oblivion and you cann see the complete continent (given your PC can handle it).
Sound... we have uncompressed multichannel audio, his very own game - MGS4 - is the prime example. We have reached a level of quality that mimics real life sound (given the right equipment, i.e. high-end speakers).
Physics were touted to be the next "graphics" in term of develpment being focused on. Well, we made some great leaps in the last 25 or so years (compare the gravity in Super Mario Bros. to the one in GTAIV), but there is still some work to be done. I'd say that within the next 10 years we have all the game related physics so far advanced, they are nearly life like. Look at Battlefield: Bad Company, that's a big step in the right direction, with the destructable environment and such.
AI is also becoming more and more advanced. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed is said to have a AI so advanced, the enemies react to your every move, every change of surounding environment (i.e. grab a ledge when you force-push them away). AI will never be 100% like another human, but it succeeds in being a challenge.
So, once we mimicked every aspect of the real life (interactivity, AI, graphics, sound, physics, objects on screen), what's next?
I'd like to see development & research going deeper into the subtile things. The white noise, although everyone hears it everyday, is not yet in every game. SpeedTree is amazing and I somtimes find myself staring at some trees that move with the wind. Then there is raytracing, more realistic water, etc.
I hope that once we accomplished these things, developers start to take more care of gameplay and story. Otherwise, the games will all start to look, play and ultimately BE the same over and over again. View

Actually, I started playing Snatcher only because I knew Kojima was behind it. On the other hand, I'm not interested at all in Wii Music, although Miyamoto made it. It depends on the game and the personal taste, I think. View

I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork- does a raw blink on Hara-kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!

Please let one be a BC SKU for Europe... I've got about five friends who want one but aren't stupid enough to shell out roughly 1000 Euros (yes, almost 1600 dollar) for a 60GB one. It's insane, but you can make a fortune selling yours over here. View

This fact alone might make it worthy a purchase instead of a rent for a lot of people.
While I think the idea is hilarious, we should have more of these. Uwe Boll's face as DLC anyone? View

It's incredible how many people say the game is a failure... it isn't even out yet FFS!
Do not, never ever, judge a game from somthing you see so early on.

Besides, if it looks similar to WoW, this might give the advantage of very forgiving system requirements, which in return means more people are able to play/enjoy it. The color thing can be changed, all it needs is an additional shader at best and I'm sure someone will find a way to mod it to look darker, grittier within days after release. View

I wouldn't mind playing you online, but I need opponents, not victims.
That aside, if you talk the way you type, then I wouldn't even want to hear you. Besides...

"You wont hear this guy scream F@G or N!gg@R at ppl"
"and btw Xgaymer"
I let that speak for itself.

But hey, have a nice day and keep "luagh"-ing.

Funny thing is, I "knew" for quite some time now.
If you know ScrewAttack, they have a feature called SideScrollers, it's a podcast more or less. They talked about it being confirmed to be a MMO a while ago. Dunno how reliable they are as a source, though. View
