FYI theres a spoiler in the article telling us how many powers there are. We know neon and smoke but SP never said how many more. The author accidently wrote the number in the article so if you're on total blackout don't read.
Software is not Sony's strongest suit I'll happily admit. But considering that don't you find it bizarre that a primarily SOFTWARE driven company like Microsoft created a console with a worse UI and features than the PS4. PS4 had friends list from launch. Had the ability to check your controllers battery from launch. Had the ability to manage your hard drive space from launch. Shall I go on?
I'm starting to think the Xbox was meant to launch around this time along with Titanfall as a launch day title. Sony must've really caught them off guard.
No no I have both. But it's only us who can afford to that can see the glaring differences between them. Xbone is a significantly gimped machine, no doubt about that.
Every single bullet pointed feature listed there has been on PS4 from Day 1. What a turnaround from PS3 with MS now having to play feature catch up.
Add that to having to pay for an adaptor to enabloe you to use different headsets on your Xbone controller and you start to see how far behind they were with its design.
I want them to remove or lower the financial penalties of dying. To lose at least $1000 every time you die, even if all your money is in the bank, is ridiculous. Especially when you're lower rank and mission payouts are $1000 max and un-replayable.
All Sony have done is file a trademark for the term "Arc", if there is already a patent for that then the request would be denied, it's no biggie.
The popularity is well deserved, it has a great UI and is really slick to use. The only possible improvement they could make is to somehow integrate it into the XMB so we don't have to physically open an app and just have it pop up. Apart from that I give it full marks.
I know exactly what its missing. A f@cking decent matchmaking system!it makes me so mad when me and my friends are split up or put into games where one team has already won and we get no points but the loss counts. Why havent they fixed this yet, why are people not speaking up and saying how unacceptable this is. This is 2009 we shouldnt have to deal with laggy connections, rubber banding and glitched leaderboards. SORT IT OUT FFS IW!!
Most of his sponsorship deals are up for renewal in 2010 so we'll have to see. If this story continues to rumble on into the new year then I think we'll start to see major sponsors like Gillette pulling out. But one things for sure, Tiger Woods will never be seen again as he was before this whole saga, this will damage his reputation very badly. I think his decision to suspend playing golf indefinitley until he's sorted himself out is the best option for him, I hope he can ride out the storm ...
Lost all interest in MAG after I played the first beta, i'll try it now again to see if theres any improvements but i'm not holding my breath.
Always the single player because it is a vital part of the game, most of the maps, guns etc in multiplayer are from the singleplayer so it is vital in understanding the game and why you are playing in the map you are. I like the way IW have 2 separate teams working on single player and multiplayer, it ensures neither is affected by the other as is less time is put into one or one is judged as more important so the other suffers. Plus IW really know how to mnake an awesome and deep single play...
i've always hated FIFA. PES 5 was the shizzle though, i wonder whats gone wrong with it since then.
I am a huge Sony fan but I really lost all interest in MAG when I played the beta, it really didn't feel like I was playing with 255 other players, the action was mish mash and very disorganised, there were no clear objectives or anything. I understand what they're trying to do and I understand some ,if not all, of you will disagree with me on this but I really don't care about 256 players, fine its a great technical achievment and i'll give em props for that but I really would have prefered ...
hang on didn't they say earlier Activision didn't know anything about MW2 until very late in development? They've just told us they were in talks with activison about budget for the game, budgets are done before development starts not half way.
They can leave if they want but they'd have to develop new ips for the other systems, Sony own the rights to the Ratchet and Clank and Resistance franchises. I see no reason why they'd leave anyway, they have endless amounts of money from Sony to dev games and seem to have alot of creative control over what they do. I think it would only damage Insomniac if they left Sony.
Hopefully what Naughty Dog has manged to do with the PS3 in terms of Uncharted 2 will spur Insomniac on to make Resistance 3 the best it can be. I really want them to scrap the R2 look and go back to the weapon wheel etc of R1. If they do this they can't really go wrong. What i didn't like about the development of R2 is tht Insomniac stated that there wouldn't be split screen in the campaign because we had co-op online. I'm sorry but surely it should be the fans who dictate what the devs shou...
Damn right they failed with the Wii, they're biggest problem is their main market have no interest in buying games for it. Nearly everyone I know has been happy with Wii Sports/Resort and Wii Fit but hasn't bought anything from a 3rd party publisher. That is nintendos biggest failing, catering for an audience that isn't interested in buying games.
I'm really shocked that they're not feature locked yet, what was the delay till march 2010 for if not to ensure enough time to impliment features like this. Its not like they haven't had enough time already, they've been developing it for five years! Come on PD pull your finger out and stop standing around changing your mind all the time about what you are/aren't putting in the damn game. If they screw me over next year with a sh!t game my love for the GT series will evaporate.
Working now. But on a side note it's quite unfortunate timing to release a map pack which contains a map where you fight around the wreckage of a crashed plane in asia. I'd never pull a map because of that but if this story gains traction I think EA would consider removing it.
