im not surprised not one little bit.. i saw this coming.. just another reason why ps3 is gonna own e3 and watch us get mass effect and the sequel! yea it feels good 2 be a ps3 owner!

ps3 FTW!

resistance1005766d ago

It will come in time, i see the reporters are fully agaisnt this rumor however

Chris_GTR15766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

its only fair i guess, we did get gta4 dmc4 mgs4 and RE5 anyways. all of which were ps exclusive

pepperfootball5766d ago

really? mgs4?
i was JUST at gamestop, didt see it, wierd huh?

supaman900s5766d ago

HAHA... Really? You got MGS4 for your 360? Must be good stuff you smoking...

Common Sense5766d ago

I won't buy it. The Orange box is like $30 now. 5 good games for $30. It's very irresistible but why should we get a worse product than 360 and PC owners. We all pay the same so why should we get crappy versions.

I'll just save my money for developers who actually try to make excellent products.

fusionboxer5766d ago

Not saying I don't want it and that it wouldn't be cool if it did, but gametrailers also listed Haze as a multiplat title on day one up till the day it came out.

DarkBlade5766d ago

What do u mean by "WE"? Damn console racist. Shame.lol jk

Omegasyde5766d ago

When were RE5, GTA4 exclusive? Wait a second didn't Gta 3, Vice, and San Andreas come to the original XBOX as well as the PS2? Did you forget?

Hmm. Please pass the pipe.

mikeslemonade5766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

This game is a rental at best. It's another one of those games in 2008 that look worst than 2007 games.

andyo135765d ago

has multiplatform written all over it

-face it MS wotn let FF7 passed. It will be on both PS3/360 at the least

PirateThom5766d ago

Cloud 360 - Sony own the publishing rights for Final Fantasy VII in both America and the US.

I'm sure Sony are going to release Final Fantasy VII on 360.

Sir_Ken_Kutaragi5766d ago

Silogon5766d ago

Never gonna happen and if it does it still don't matter cause I'll only buy it for the PC where I can actually play how the game was meant to be played.

power of Green 5766d ago

So PS3 fanboys envy this game after all.

How will PS3 be able to run this game with the same quality as the PC/360 versions?.

Silogon5766d ago

No way in hell could the ps3 run this game how it's meant to be ran, aside from "possible" keyboard/mouse support the PS3 version would look like the Pc version without the grafix card in it.

digger185766d ago

Easy, with it's now proven superior ram configuration and Cell/RSX comb.

So, no it won't be the same quality as the 360, it will be higher.

masterofpwnage5766d ago

1st. ive seen many ps3 owners admit they like this game u dumb @ss

2. no one here is envying this game beside me. look at the report, there is some ps3 fans in there. look at the first comment.

power of Green 5766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

EA's back up dev team will make this game better than Valve assuming this is true ;)

Sounds like this game had PC architecture in mind and never the PS3.

Anyways I know this game will not be gimped by PS3's inferior hardware so sloppy seconds doesn't matter I guess.

SixTwoTwo5766d ago

The same way it ran GTA IV, COD 4, DMC 4, or any other multiplatform game.

kazuma5766d ago

So PS3 fanboys envy this game after all.

lol that's funny, why do u ppl want mgs4 and ff13 then? jealous too?
that's a stupid argument, if the game comes out do you think ppl won't care? there's ALWAYS someone that will buy it or be interested.

If I were a PS3 fanboy I'd be more worried about what Square Enix might announce tomorrow.

masterofpwnage5766d ago

pog is always exited for e3 and always doing this. i remember he said last year
" they will announce mgs4 will come to 360 at e3 mark my words"

but look wat happen.

we dont have to worry about anything. yeah u got star ocean and last remnat, but we got finalfantasy 13 and versus, and lastremnat to.

u xbots should woory wat micro might announce. dont get ur hopes to high

The Wood5766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

.. ....i remember those days

power of Green 5766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

I find this flood of Pro Sony fud comical one day before E3. lol

This is from the original typo lol.

Gametrailers knows more than major media outlets, the devs and the publishers lol.

SixTwoTwo5766d ago (Edited 5766d ago )

SqEx already announced their 360 lineup. It didn't include FFXIII. That won't change. SqEx has been quoted saying they want to support all platforms equally and with the way they have their lineups set they're doing exactly that. If having Star Ocean 4 exclusively doesn't satisify you then I don't know what to tell you.

The Wood5766d ago

don't be coy about it. Make a prediction like last year. We'll promise not to quote you should you be totally wrong again;)......After the downsizing of E3 its surprising to see how much attention it still gathers.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies1d ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken19h ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing691d 11h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1d 11h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos1d 7h ago (Edited 1d 7h ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt22h ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken19h ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

Most Offensive Video Games That Would Never Cut It Today

Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.

Read Full Story >>
wealthofgeeks.com
thorstein39d ago (Edited 39d ago )

Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.

The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.

In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.

MrBaskerville38d ago

Yeah, people wouldn't be constantly outraged if there weren't games that people found enraging. The whole SBI discourse shit wouldn't be a thing if all games were inoffensive. A game like Starfield can make a guy froth at his mouth, so there will always be room for a list like this.

0hMyGandhi37d ago

Normally, I'd be inclined to agree with you, but there are massive caveats.
TV shows like Venture Bros, Ren and Stimpy, and Aqua Team wouldn't/couldn't be made today. Hell, Ren and Stimpy was a *children's* show, same thing with Rocko's Modern Life.

It's not for some arbitrary reason, either. It's branding and IP alignment. Companies are far more risk-averse than they were when I was kid in the 90's. Of course, you have companies coming out of the woodwork to hell spur on similar content, but remember: Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon and some incredibly provocative material.

And for movies? it's pretty obvious. American Pie/Wedding Crashers/Eurotrip among many other "raunch coms" have fallen out of style, and are absolutely outside what the modern day film industry is willing to stand by.
Ace Ventura 1 and 2, Dumb and Dumber, Freddy Got Fingered, Rat Race, Harold and Kumar, and Van Wilder follow suit.

Remember: I am not explicitly talking about films put onto streamers. I am talking wide-releases in actual theaters. Same thing goes for games: Carmageddon, Duke Nukem, Manhunt, Six Days In Fallujah (with their original concept), Hatred, and so on and so forth. Of course, I'd be inclined to mention most tactical shooters like Rainbow Six and Joint Ops as well, due to cultural sensitivity regarding *who* you are shooting and why.

And not all of it is bad (obviously). Tastes change, and perspectives change to fit the demographic.
I should add that I'm a lefty, living in L.A. Working in film.

thorstein37d ago

The Boys, Invincible, Jojo Rabbit, Deadpool, Gen V, Last of Us, Banshee... There are plenty of media being made today that people will claim "can't be made today".

Profchaos37d ago

Yeah but if you consider manhunt which was basically a snuff film could you seriously make that game with high than PS2 era graphics.

thorstein37d ago

The Outlast Trials just came out.

But the storyline of Manhunt was that you were executed. But then lived. And if you didn't do as you were told, you'd die. And the people you killed were not innocents.

It was all filmed by a psychopath.

As we speak GTA VI is being finished up for a release. You get to play a Bonnie and Clyde type of protagonist who run up against the law.

Bodycam looks so real.

People are making those games. Articles like this will always exist no matter how incorrect they are, no matter how many times they blame "them" for whatever it is "they" do to prevent "those" games from being made.

Number1TailzFan38d ago

The UK is the biggest junk country pandering to that nonsense as well, with laws against free speech and expression to match. It got so bad even Rowan Atkinson made a video on free speech about it.

Now the UK raises the age rating on harmless films like Mary Poppins, it's just a load of pansy weak ass nonsense.

MrDead38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

The right wing Tories have been in power in the UK for the 14 years you know the ones that are "anti-woke", blame them for your perceptions.

Killer2020UK38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

Are these snowflakes in the room with us now?

This is more faux outrage designed to get hits. The consequences are unfortunately creating hysteria amongst those willing to buy into it and blame "them" or "the left" or "liberals" meanwhile the left are kicking off about genocide, actual real world abhorrent acts. Nobody is campaigning to censor this shit.

Huey_My_D_Long37d ago

Not too mention the fact that some of these game are controversial for you know, underage porn and encouraging rape.

So either the guy just came in to comment snowflakes without reading anything, or he is calling people snowflakes for having a problem with said titles. Crazy how much brain rot someone can have.

banger8838d ago

Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."

"Feminist Whore" lmao

gold_drake38d ago

ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.

its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.

ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.

Barlos38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

They're not offensive.

And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!

Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.

Deeeeznuuuts38d ago

Would love a new fat princess game 🤟

CantThinkOfAUsername38d ago

Games literally about sexual assault, mass genocide, bombing civilians, and school shooting. None of which is satirical.

isarai38d ago

Actually it's about fat princesses

Huey_My_D_Long37d ago (Edited 37d ago )

Its crazy that people are fixated on Fat princess when clearly the list is going over controversies, and not all of them are equal. Like way worse examples but pretend the entire list is like that.

Left 4 Dead Writer Explains The Drawbacks Of Releasing Games In Early Access

He wants to launch all his projects initially through close beta.
