MMO Shooter Defiance Coming to PS3

Defiance is the first persistent online world that plays like a pixel perfect shooter. Unlike other shooter games where you can play co-op with 4 or 8 players at most, Defiance supports thousands of players playing together in a game that never ends.

Wow PS3 is becoming the MMO console with games like this, DCUO, Free Realms, Gundam, Dust 514, etc.

Speaking of MMO's does anybody know what happened to NCSoft PS3 game?

Godmars2904437d ago

What NCSoft game?

Really wondering if MS will allow this on the 360.

gtxgamer24437d ago

I dont think its coming to 360, they havent announced it. Never know

NYC_Gamer4437d ago

Really doubt MS allows this mmo on their console...xbl is just too closed.

Seventh_Blood_Reborn4437d ago (Edited 4437d ago )

There was an agreement between Sony and NCSoft for 3 games, but that agreement was cancelled over a year ago :(

I wanted Guild Wars II on PS3, maybe there will be a chance on PS4 ...

On topic: This game on 360? I doubt it. It' s very well known that MS put always a lot of limits to such projects.

EDIT: I was wrong, it seems it' s really coming on 360 too, the video on the official site says "PC and ConsoleS".

Anyway I' m happy the more games the better, but I want a MMORPG, IMHO Sony should make one with their internal studios instead of waiting FFIV and other games.

and why don't just check the official site first?

not sure why some people think this is PS3 only game

Godmars2904437d ago (Edited 4437d ago )

Their own site doesn't mention any platform by name. Not even PC.

For that matter there's a difference between the game being on the Xbox and MS allowing cross platform gaming. MH, FF11 and PSO are all on their own server separate from PC. As far as I know anyway.

WrAiTh Sp3cTr34436d ago

Why are they making this out to be a PS3 exclusive?

@yourfather: I'm not seeing that on the site you linked. I clicked all if the tabs (universe, show, and game) without finding what you pasted.

Godmars2904436d ago (Edited 4436d ago )

Does it really matter when the real question is will MS allow cross-platform play.

@WrAiTh Sp3cTr3:
Same reason MS sites never mention multiplatform titles as being multiplatform titles. Unless its also PC.

xbox already has MMO's. PSU and FF.

Persistantthug4437d ago

What must be clarified, is that those games are pretty much exceptions to the rule.
The reason Microsoft allowed those games to coexist on XBOX 360/ XBOX LIVE is because early on, Microsoft was interested and desperate to get japanese developers and japanese gamers onto XBOX.

However, These days, it seems Microsoft is pretty much only interested in KINECT..... unfortunately.

CarlitoBrigante4437d ago

Wow another PS3 exclusive???

Sony think about my wallet!

Virtual_Reality4436d ago

Don't forget about Final Fantasy XIV Online rebuild version for PS3 in 2012 or 2013.

Christopher4436d ago

Champions Online is no longer owned by NCSoft and is not coming to consoles.

PlayStation®3: console with the most MMO shooters. ;)
This game looks awesome. I'll be keeping an eye on it.

gtxgamer24436d ago

Hope its free 2 play, considering alot of games are going F2P i wouldnt doubt if this one did either

Why are people so persistent to disagree with fact on N4G? Conveniently when the game is considered to be a Playstation exclusive, the comments are consistently similar, "Day one", "This looks amazing", despite the trailer showing little apart from generic enemy models and large player counts. My prediction is that immediately after the fact has settled in that the title isn't exclusive people will mysteriously lose interest in the title...

I'll hold off my opinion of the game as we have very little to go off of from the Pre-Alpha gameplay footage. It's concept seems somewhat intriguing...

Lilioups4437d ago (Edited 4437d ago )

Looks good gonna buy it for pc and ps3

SPAM-FRITTER-1234437d ago

im not buying it for anything, it look garbage.

the old republic & DC universe are great games though.

VonBraunschweigg4437d ago (Edited 4437d ago )

Very promising, but I'm not getting my hopes up too high. 256 players on one map is possible on PS3, but a thousand? I don't think so, definitely not on 360 and this seems to be multiplatform if you chech the official site. We need more info, but I think this will be a multiplatform game without cross platform play, where every single battle on PC, PS3 and 360 contributes to a bigger ongoing fight in one universe, one server so therefore a thousand players in one game but not in one multiplayer session. Like with Dust 514, matches are 24 vs 24 (for now) but every match can influence a persistent universe, 'one game', with thousands of players. Dust is also called a FPS MMO, but the MMO part reflects the meta game with EVE, not the individual games you play, win or lose every 30 minutes or so.

Intriguing though, can't wait to hear more. Dust, Defiance, gaming needs initiatives like this.

Christopher4436d ago

It will likely be 1,000+ on a server, but they will use instances to keep the numbers to 24-32 players in the same area.

I had a good time with the original Defiance years back, honestly.

Silly gameAr1190d ago

Me too. I remember putting a lot of hours into it before it went free to play. After, it went f2p, I didn't play it near as much, but it makes me nostalgic.

darthv721190d ago

I liked the show and picked up a sealed collectors edition of the 360 game for $5 at a thrift store a couple years ago.

isarai1190d ago

It had a good run honestly, way better than it had any business being, especially for it to be part of a tv series

boing11190d ago

Yeah, I'm surprised it went for so long too. Tried the game but didn't click for me. I liked the TV series, though.

isarai1190d ago

I gave it about a dozen hours, was fun even tho MMOs aren't my thing. But to even keep me around that long is impressive lol

psynetik1231190d ago

Paid $11 for this POS way back and I still felt ripped off

Usually pro has the higher or more stable fps. Hopefully that trend doesn’t happen again this game.

thrust2216d ago

Xbox X a lot more powerful allways the better 3rd party games, The truth hurts 👍

bluefox7552216d ago

@thrust Yeah, the newer, more expensive hardware seems to play games a little better. Shocking, right? Personally, I like 60fps on most games, so I go for the best version, on PC, not X.

RobLoPR2216d ago

@bluefox... so PC is cheaper than Xbox One X?

rdgneoz32216d ago

"allways the better 3rd party games"

Because it has no good first party games since they all get delayed or canned?

Realms2216d ago

@ thrust

No the truth is that a good PC runs circles around the X but some of you constantly try to make it seem like the X is better than PC wrong.

@ RobLoPR

You gotta love the goal posting the argument isn't about price point the argument is where you can get the best performance and the answer is PC. MS fanboys love taunting the power card the only problem is that a good PC can and always will outperform consoles.

iplay1up22216d ago

That is not true. Time and time again the X has been the best platform for 3rd party games. Usually FPS on the X are higher too. Just look at Assassins Creed Origins X compared to Pro Digital Foundry has.

Next Gen it wont matter. I just don't know what Sony and Microsoft are planning for next gen. This is the first MAJOR mid gen upgrade for a console. I just paid $499 for Xbox One X, and Pro is $399. If next gen starts in 2019. What kind of power will the consoles have? What price?BTW, not only does the X have more power than pro, but also a 4K BluRay player. Which Pro doesn't have. That is what makes the X $100 more than pro.

Oh we're talking hardware, because I was going to list some other differences.

nowitzki20042217d ago

I seen an article in gameinformer that MS will be releasing an Xbox One F. $899 with 8% increase over Xbox One X. First time I seen or heard anything about it. Is it true or was it a joke?

AnubisG2217d ago

Never heard of that. Most likely a joke.

nowitzki20042217d ago (Edited 2217d ago )

I didnt have time to read through it, but I really wouldnt be surprised so did not know how to take it lol.

I think its May 2018 issue.. Spiderman on cover.

slavish02216d ago

this is a last gen game it should be 4k60

2216d ago
PS3_Noob2216d ago (Edited 2216d ago )

If X could do 60fps compared to Pro 30fps may be it would matter more. Otherwise both can do well over 1080P which is more than enough. Games is what matters most.
