Re: Sony Makes Massive $2 Billion Net Loss For Q3 FY2011

rjejr — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 09:10:38 -0000

Sony deserves an award for coming up with the most number of excuses for why they didn't do well without naming either themselves - PSN outage hangover, PS Vita delayed until after the holidays - or their competition - Kinect. Poor, poor Sony, the whole world is against them, including the world itself.

I prefer when "fighter" and "strider" classes are called "warrior" and "rogue". Guess that makes me "new school".
Video looks good. LotR gets invaded by Drakengard. Maybe they delayed this just to give Asura's Wrath some breathing room?

Surely its just "using a higher resolution texture" set up with mipmaps so the PS3 and PSP use appropriate ones for their texel to pixel ratios....

Re: THQ Cuts 240 Jobs, Slashes Salaries

terrible news for the workers... as far as the higher, upper people, stop being so damn greedy and maybe this wouldn't be happening in the first place... and i'm not just talking about this company.

i think the demise all started with the poor looking uDraw. even when i saw that 70% off last month i stayed away.

between my PS3 and Kinect i only have four THQ titles. two apiece. Stacking being my favorite of the four. that's a low number since i have over 200 games. i guess their games aren't really my style this generation.

i wonder how this will effect the South Park game...

This just looks astonishingly stupid. There is nothing anybody can do with zombies that will make me enjoy that horror sub-genre anymore. I won't spend money on this even if I find it in a 2 game for $10 bin at EB...

Re: Sony France On PlayStation 4: We’ll Probably Be The Last To Announce Something

rjejr — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 10:39:47 -0000

My wife and I were discussing this yesterday, the PS4, Xbox720 and WiiU launches and decided a PS4 could in no way shape or form release by Christmas 2012. Microsoft could release an Xbox 720 b/c they do stuff like that, but probably wouldn't b/c the Kinect is doing fairly well and they are releasing bundles. This is both good and bad news for the WiiU. Good in that it will have the holidays sales period to itself, bad b/c it will need to be priced accordingly to generate sales. They can't launch a $400 system with the other 2 selling for $199 each even if it is "their" next gen system and expect to rule the market. It might almost be better for them if the PS4 and Xbox 720 were out this year so they could compete on price - which is how they won this round, price and Wii Sports in the box, but they wouldn't have won at $400. Hopefully the lack of competing high priced systems will force them to sell the WiiU at $299 or less (b/c that's my ceiling).

Thats too bad, I've been holding off on buying a PS3 til this game came
out. Guess I'll just save my money now, I don't "Need" to play games and I won't throw money at things I don't support so I guess, Thanks E/A!! ;)

I knew there would be some stupid shit going on when I had to accept 2 screens just to play the demo. Who the hell puts acceptance screens in a demo? I almost didn't even bother playing the demo because of all that nonsense. Glad I did, the camera is in WAY too tight, all I can see is my avatars back. You shouldn't put a FPS camera in a third person game.

Re: EA Sports: SSX To Usher New Era For Extreme Sports

Chris I. — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 07:56:41 -0000

I fondly remember the dashing to GameStop after work to grab SSX 3, getting home and slipping it into my PS2 and then sitting in awe for hours at how beautiful the game played and looked. Heck, my roommate just sat there silently for hours starting at the TV screen.

SSX 3 was a beautiful game, but it was the way it would calm your nerves with it's serenity in the peaks of the mountain, as you carve the fresh powder, then pump your adrenaline, as you drift off into the wilds of the lower parts of the mountain.

Here's to hoping that this is the true sequel us SSX fans have long waited for! :D

Hmm. Hope the game's good, because I don't think much of the visuals. Looks... bland.

This is one of the titles I'm most looking forward to playing. Seems to have a good sense of humour.

Re: Darksiders II Gives You The Lowdown On, Erm, Death

rjejr — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 10:34:23 -0000

Please allow me to introduce myself ...
I actually liked the graphics, in my head that's what a video game looks like, colorful and cartoony. I don't like photorealism or brown. I also like camera control, which is why no matter how great GOW3 or Castlevania may look, I'ld rather have camera control.
And Neir is the ugliest game this generation. It would be Majin but that was so ugly it's a bad looking PS2 game so I won't count it.

Re: ModNations Racers: Road Trip Could Get Online Multiplayer In Future Patch

rjejr — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 08:51:13 -0000

In fairness they do have ad hoc, which is something I guess. Though I'ld imagine the graphics would prohibit a single card multiplayer game, which is the raison d'etre for ad hoc.
Maybe this game was actually in development for the Wii?
