I joined this site because of my love for video games and since then I have opened my eyes to the fact that annoying "Fanboys" are hurting the industry with their extremely immature behavior...Like seriously It when I read some of the "Fanboyish" comments on this site it reminds me of a group of 5 year olds arguing with each other because they just can not accept the fact that their new toy is NOT seen as better than the toys of the other kids... Like Honestly if the industry would unite then think about how it could be so much better...for example I recommend RB6:Vegas & Splinter Cell:DA to PS3 owners and I tell every proud owner of a PS3 to pick up a copy Oblivion since I played it on me Xbox 360 and loved it...BUT most would not do that because if a title is on both systems then "fanboys" just need to talk about how much it sucks or will suck for the "other guys" console(I.E. DMC4)...back to the point I'm trying to make...I think it would be better if gamers started acting like adults instead of children and If you like a game/console just give your humble opinion regarding it based on why you like it and recommend it to others don't just mindlessly bash the "others".
Former Deviation Games developers have formed a new studio at Sony Interactive Entertainment in order to work on a brand new PlayStation IP.
Well that's an awesome and very surprising turnaround. Cheers to the new studio and what they'll build!
That's..... confusing, so shut down but just reformed and same employer 🤔 sounds like pretty much what happened to Japan Studio basically just being rebranded as Asobi
It is odd one I don't know how business deals work or the law of that kind of stuff. But is it possible Sony reached out and said hey we want you apart of Sony but don't want to purchase you for what ever reason. How about use disband and we will open a studio and hire you guys type of thing. Is that even possible?
I guess the deviation team fell apart and didn't deliver good progress on what they pitched (they overhyped themselves when the team was announced)so Sony shut them down. They regrouped with a new team and a new pitch so Sony is giving them another shot.
And this time they are keeping it quiet to keep pressure down on the team. So people aren't asking everyday what deviation(or whatever the new team is called) is doing.
Edit: Also Sony never owned them. They just ended their partnership with them. Deviation decided to close on their own.
These days Xenoblade is one of Nintendo’s bigger franchises – at least when it comes to RPGs – but that wasn’t always the case. The first entry came out in English more than a year after its Japanese launch, and that was for European fans only.
Would've been yet another whack move on Nintendo. I'm glad they did. It's one of the few games I got the switch for.
I guess Nintendo forgets how boosting sales numbers work. Why lock a game to a certain region or certain regions? You want sales number then flood the market and release the game in every region.
I just don't understand why companies enjoy locking software behind such specific things. Imagine if Minecraft was only available for Xbox 360 and only North America and never again on anything else..
WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "Heading Out combines genres and styles which might sound incompatible at first glance, but did so in a very interesting manner, resulting in a truly unique roguelike experience. I, for one, really liked the presentation as well, with its slick visuals and soundtrack. It’s not entirely perfect, as the driving could have been more polished, and the pop-in glitches really took me out of the experience at times. That being said, it’s a game unlike any other out there, which wlll definitely keep you engaged through a good few runs."
Agree or Disagree or maybe even agree to disagree but just give some feed back because it is crazy how nobody reads the blog's and plus we all know that the "fanboys" on this site are getting way out of hand.
I have noticed that as well. I think all systems (yes...even the wii) has something unique to offer and some people just prefer one to the other.
I my selp am a console gamer. i say this because i like playing good games on any consoles but i can't play on a computer. if they were to bring out mush have games on all 3 consoles then i would have to buy all three.
I have the 360 now and when KZ2 and heavenly sword comeout and if i can afford it at the time i will buy the PS3. I would consider the wii but i don't think i would play it as much.
but anyways you are right, i thnk fanboys just need to feel suprior to other and need to make them selves feel better about the choice they made.
I would like to know what your definition of a fanboy is... I started console gaming life with a Master System, then a NES, had a little break and then got a PS1, PS2, a Wii and when I have saved enough money, I will get a PS3. I have made a conscious choice not to get a 360, because I am not convinced by what it offers? Does this make me a Sony fanboy? Do I now fall into that category because I have sided with the Sony brand, or do is there more to it?
I think one thing that gets peoples backs up is that the word fanboy gets thrown around so much, and the fact that it is usually used in a derogatory way. I have no problem with people wanting or using a 360, I have no quarms with games going multi-platform that were originally exclusive, and I have no problem with the spotlight being shined on the PS3's flaws (of which it does have it's fair share). But if someone starts yapping of untrue 'facts' in an effort to the console, and I try and counter the argument, I get labeled a fanboy. I agree the petty squabbling makes sites like this more and more unbearable, but the 'All-Round Gamers' need to stop getting high and mighty, wading in every argument with 'well I love both consoles, so that makes you silly fanboys'. Some of us have chosen a particular console, and for our own reasons, and I believe we should be able to justify those reasons without being painted with the same brush as people who like to make trouble with such brilliantly worded arguments as "P$3 suxorz, 360 ftw!!1!"
Fanboys have always controlled this industry that’s why there are more than one console and each has its own set of exclusives. By the way your logic to own all systems doesn’t apply to real world considering most people can’t afford more than one console. Don’t forget the poor people as you stepping on them while trying to get all consoles, some people cant afford to even get a core 360 which is why so many buy cheaper like Wii, PS2, Xbox or gamecube. When someone gets there console and are excited then they get bashed for buying it, this is where I started my fanboyism.
So many "fanboys" have to be so Vicious about their opinions and plus who said that everybody should own all consoles? Who is stepping all over the "poor" people? I know my overall point by the industry uniting is that we gamers should act on the fact that we have more in common with each other with our passion for Video Games then just attack each other and bash everything due to silly brand loyalty...Like it just seems to me that it is really ridiculous to be that way like when people dislike each other because of stuff like one is fat or "Black" or Handicapped people think its crazy so why is it NOT crazy for people to automatically dislike each other over a video game console?
