Why is their so much stuff coming on my Birthday. Can it be the day after when i get all my money and so then i can have some time to play.
This looks like a petty cool game.

Too many games to buy. This one can be finished in a week.

Nice, hopefully the PS3 doesn't drag the 360 version down too much.

THE TERMINATOR5770d ago

PS3 is the LEAD platform for this game.
So its confirmed superior.

360rxorz5770d ago

Which is why the 360 version will be dragged down. Now the 360 version has to conform to the severe limitations of the PS3 and can't take full advantage of the 360.

HighDefinition5770d ago

Yeah....

Like.....

-Uncharted
-MGS4
-KZ2
-LBP

Get a CLUE, young one.

Seriously people who make comments like this are under 18 and sad about the console they told their parent to buy them.

This is from a PR guy from LucasArts and you can also read what the project lead said at an article that's available on gamespot.

"At the Game Developer's Conference this year, Haden Blackman, the Project Lead for The Force Unleashed, said that The Force Unleashed was developed first on Xbox 360 because when it was started we didn't have any PS3 development hardware.

However, that ended up making things much more difficult overall, because, Haden explained, creating games for the PS3 is a bit harder, mainly because it's new and has a different architecture from PCs and the Xbox 360.

The team overcame the challenge and The Force Unleashed is the exact same game on both platforms.

Moving forward, though, the lesson Haden said he learned was that he needs to take the PS3 into consideration at the beginning, precisely because it's the more difficult platform, so the hard part is done early.

This was not a LucasArts-wide discussion. It was Haden talking personally about lessons he learned during development of The Force Unleashed.

It was also not a discussion about which platform is better or worse. We love both platforms, and think that The Force Unleashed is awesome on both.

Please do not read into this and draw us into the Xbox 360 vs. PlayStation 3 battle."

EDIT: and from the GameSpot article:
"Our next project will use the PS3 as the baseline, and then apply that to the Xbox 360,"

jesus christ

when the 360 is lead the PS3 suffers

seriously your a fúcking moron the only better thing about 360 is a slightly better graphics chip

hardware wise PS3 owns 360 and you know it, both specs and reliablity

So with the PS3 been lead

your version is going to be just as good as ours, which is better than if it was done on 360

say thank you you ungratefull piece of shít

Kal11385770d ago

You can disagree with me all you want. I posted direct quotes (with links) from LucasArts people, including the project lead.

bosels115770d ago

360asseater, your an idiot!

Snukadaman5769d ago

Well looking at madden 09 and that washed out look...it seems the ps3 lead development strikes back again...that washed out look is just terrible but madden is fun so I will have to bear with it unlike burnout paradise that I have not touched since.

The Status of Every PlayStation Franchise

Sony owns a fair few iconic franchises - many dating right back to the original PlayStation. But while we’re pretty familiar with the likes of ongoing series such as God of War, Horizon, and Gran Turismo, there are plenty of PlayStation franchises that haven’t seen the light of day in a long time. So in this video, we’re going to be taking a look at the status of PlayStation’s many IPs, and checking in on when we last heard from them.

A 20+ minute video? Just include the written list in the article.

Status in one word:

Underutilized.

The end.

anast4h ago

Which ones should they utilize more?

BehindTheRows3h ago

Indeed. We hear this “underutilized” talk as if every old franchise should have a comeback or reboot.

I_am_Batman2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

When new IPs start looking like Concord, you can't blame people for wanting another Resistance or Killzone instead.

anast1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

J&D and Resistance are good ones. As much as I love these, though, I'm not sure they would payoff without an enormous marketing push. Younger gamers today do not have taste and the older gamers that would appreciate these might not be enough. But yeah, I would day 1 Resistance.

Well that’s just the consequence of consistently producing new IPs isn’t it. Not all studios can be or want to be like polyphony digital who made gran turismo all the time.

Abear212h ago

Here lies The Infamous Series; once a shining beacon of free flying, lighting bolt sniping, and wire riding amazing gameplay, it has been laid to rest and be forgotten for what seems like forever despite being loved by millions. Plot next to Wipeout across from NBA Jam.

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
