Title: Koei got smart
Post by: abrader on June 11, 2008, 04:05:07 PM
Fatal Inertia EX went from being a retail Blu Ray disk release to a PSN store download only title.

I say that ANY game not requiring the size and cost to put a BRD on the shelf should go the route of downloadable title.

I think they are hoping that people will confuse it with Wipeout HD. Either that, or they are hoping to capitalize on the renewed (if short-lived) interest in futuristic racing games that will follow in the wake of Wipeout HD.

I think the DL model has some promise, but not everyone feels good about downloading games, so a shelf presence is still pretty important (or has the ability to do it). That is, unless it's expected that the game sells nothing in stores.

No - it isnt, I had it for X360 and I have played the PS3 demo.

You have no idea what you are talking about and Koei owns your balls.

- controls : fixed

- levels : streamlined

- GFX : better

Basically the X360 release was like an early build alpha....

Kinda like how Air Force Delta Strike on PS2 kills Air Force Delta Storm on XBOX....

No - but Koei actually improved the game....They should release a patch for the X360 edition.

ok so it's improved. fine, I guess. however it still has its one huge main flaw which is that it looks like a sequel to HRESVELGR
