Like who's developing, was it in development before or after Zipper was canned, etc.
I guess it makes sense though. Shut down the PS2 fanbase but give them a reason to upgrade.
Still a rumor though...Though this would make my year
I'm sure it will still have the same HDD slots, obviously since the console itself hasn't been confirmed yet we don't really know the specs.
I'd be shocked if it didn't tho since the cloud storage wont be unlimited
I have so many friends who haven't played it at all so I'm more than willing to sacrifice the mouse/keyboard for 15+ people playing it. Excited.
And for $15 why not. 10 maps I think, that's more content for the money than most DLC packs for a shooters entirety this day n age
Last I heard this was supposed to be one of the launch titles for the next Xbox. If not maybe the 360's last hoorah.
Seems likely.
About 2 months ago me and the Microsoft rep were shooting the shit about new consoles, and he actually told me that Xbox 8 was the code name for it.
Even he said he doesn't know much internally, but he had this right.
EDIT: Maybe ties into Windows 8?
It's odd to feel hatred over a game, especially one that's good, but that's honestly how I feel when SOCOM is even mentioned to me. Hate.
There's no way this game should have failed. I remember talk after talk after talk on the old SOCOM games with friends where I distinctly remember saying "I can't wait until SOCOM is on PS3". And here we are, almost 10 years later, with still no great SOCOM game. And it's such a shame.
Li...
64 players on consoles next time around.
...Looking at you Caspian Border
I love how half the developers talk about sacrifice when usually half the shit the community is asking for are major features and deciding factors into the purchase.
When you half ass a game, it fails. Ask Zipper and SOCOM 4. That (online-centric) game didn't have a party system until 3 months after it launched. Unacceptable.
Will I still buy this? Probably...but maybe not day 1 anymore. Sucks
And more to do with Activision losing money
They'll tout it as that as well. And I honestly bet it'll be pretty damn good.
Why? Because Sony's been in this position before with Killzone 2, and compared to all of the shit that went through I'd say it exceeded expectations, whether the game was perfect or not (obviously not)
The whole "What you don't wanna get whopped by a big black girl" comment.
I mean I personally didn't give a fuck and thought it was hilarious, but I'm sure some suits somewhere might throw a fit over it.
She was great though, as were a lot of the games they showed. Can't wait to see more about them
Started strong with Halo and went downhill fast after that.
Sad because I expected both MS and Sony to give us one last strong year full on content, and it looks like MS tried to just give us enough to get them through.
Won't be hard for Sony & Nintendo to run away with a victory this year.
Wii remote & nunchuck, Gamepad, & Pro right?
Gonna be interesting to see how this all works out
I've had a PS3 since launch, I'm simply referring to the last year or two and potentially this coming (and final) year.
Obviously there are tons of new info we'll get in a few days, but for now it's been Halo x2, Gears x2, 5th AC game, GoW Ascension (which I'll hold judgement till I see more gameplay at E3), another infamous. On top of your annual CoD and BF/MoH
And no there's nothing wrong with giving people what they want. But the l...
I really don't like the fact that both MS & Sony have been shoveling out the same franchises left and right last year and now this.
Maybe you can blame Activision and the COD cycle since obviously others are trying it, but I wish they didn't give up on this gen so quickly. Feels like they know this is it so why not do something that appeals to more fans even if its oversaturated.
Makes me want to not spend a lot of money and just wait for new co...
If you look at that Playstation Blog Share program that never really took off, it's been in the top 15 since it first started.
Such a large demand, and Sony for some just turns on the blinders. I don't get it.
Such great childhood memories :(
If Sony is serious about the Vita/PS3 cross compatibility this needs to be a must on a lot of games going forward, especially 1st party titles
I mean we are talking about arguably the number 1 vs 2 games in the shooter market, and 15 million shipped is still a decent accomplishment.
If anyone thought EA could kill the competition in 1 year they are delusional, but doing that good last year could mean good things down the road in 1 or 2 or 3 years from now. Especially in the next gen market.
Congrats
Comparing MGS to CoD or the fact that 1UP is actually the site that wrote this article.
So sad to see....RIP old (and good) 1UP - early 2000's edition
Now I know why I've been getting controllers dirt cheap/free through my job.
God dammit.
