Wow ps3 should be worth getting next year

[Himu]

here's hoping for a price drop

ps3 is doing quite well in terms of game news.

- 2 Team ICO games on the way apparently.

- New Megami Tensei game (no word on whether it's in the Shin label or not)

- Valkyrie of the Battlefield trailer

- Yakuza 3

- Rumble is back

- Star Ocean 4 exclusive

- Aqua

- Steamboat Chronicles sequel for ps3 and psp

All I need now is a damn price drop.

ps360 ftw

it's been confirmed by the 1UP guys that the next persona is going to be a PS3 exclusive.  start saving up, himu =]

i can care less about rumble at this point, it just seems like a tacky strap-on from something that otherwise should have been included since day one.  "now devs can add a patch for rumble" *ps3tards all bow in unison"

OMG how the mighty have fallen

[Van Cruncheon]

name one good team ICO game and will tell you why you are wrong

SOTC

reason: just fun as shit to climb gigantic monsters.

[Robo]

SotC has a lot of glaring flaws that a team more focused on execution and maybe a little less on creating wacky concepts that don't particularly work very well wouldn't have allowed to pass.  It's more like you're beta testing a single idea, barely fleshed than a cohesive final product.

ICO works as a nice, simple puzzle/platformer, but I don't think the team has what it takes to make a killer app.

[tiesto]

Aqua looks really nice from the trailers... nice to see ArtDink is still around and developing... though their games aren't always my cup of tea, they certainly are pretty unique. Looks like yet another gen of owning all the competing systems, and having way too many games to play through!

[Van Cruncheon]

SOTC

reason: just shit to climb gigantic monsters with a crappy camera, a gimpy hold mechanic, 15fps and BROWN BROWN BROWN and JAGGIES JAGGIES JAGGIES.

execution >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ideas

[Kyle]

i might get the ps3 when it hits $299 

[Fragamemnon]

there is one good thing about that list-the wacky jappy stuff that we were all thinking we'd have to buy a wii for is starting to stumble its way to the PS3 instead. So that's a pretty good thing-getting your wacky jappy animu game fix on a machine that also plays first party sony titles is way better than having to play them on the lean mean mascot machine.

yeah, but it's not a game I marvel at technically.  I like the idea enough to make me disregard problems with the execution.

Source? All I've heard about these are internet rumors.

- New Megami Tensei game (no word on whether it's in the Shin label or not)

Source? Anything other than the old 1UP podcast?

- Star Ocean 4 exclusive

Do we have actual confirmation from SE/Tri-Ace yet?

[Phoenix Dark]

Not worth it to me. MGS4 is going to the 360 and that's all that matters

[disgruntled_jojo]

- Valkyrie of the Battlefield trailer

I clicked to watch the trailer, but you lost me at 'Sega Presents'.

[demi]

Haha, two ICO games, where they admitted to having to use half-assed "tricks" to achieve what they wanted using the PS2's weak power.

Wonder what "tricks" they will pull to achieve something on the gimped PS3.

[Mr. Gundam]

Not worth it to me. MGS4 is going to the 360 and that's all that matters

Really now. Can you back that up?

[bluemax]

Are the Team Ico games going to be actual games or just more tech/concept demos?

As a programmer I admire them, but as a gamer I'm left wanting.

[Mr. Gundam]

Are the Team Ico games going to be actual games or just more tech/concept demos?

No one knows. Nothing has been officially said about them. We don't even know if they're really in the works.

[Mr. Gundam]

Well, then Ueda or someone else at SCEJ really needs to say something about them.

[Oblivion]

Team Ico focuses on ultra slick presentation first, and gameplay second.

SotC had awesome music, btw.

And what makes you think they're going to come with TWO of them let alone one by next year?

[Himu]

who cares ps3 is worth buying and that's what counts.

[demi]

No it's not, that's just the black person talking

[Phoenix Dark]

Give me 6 months

[Beezy]

Nothing on that list is worth getting a PS3 for.

It's not like we have any chance of getting Yakuza 3 over here.

[The Sceneman]

Team Ico are the most overrated devs ever.

None of those games are system sellers, sorry

[The Sceneman]

youre right, but there is still no really good reason to get a PS3, gimped ports of 360 games and shitty exclusives

[BlueTsunami]

New IPs can't be system sellers since theres no base of gamers that would buy into the series blindly. I would think games like Halo or Final Fantasy are deserving of the term.

[Beezy]

Himuro wins this round!

[Van Cruncheon]

with sega, nobody wins

[Ichirou]

I remember when Sega used to be more than a fucking punchline.

ironically, Halo 1 was a system-seller....

I agree.   

Also Yakuza was fucking boring when I tried it.  I'm sorry Himu.   :'(

[drohne]

i think i'm on the verge of forgiving sega

new sega rally 

yakuza 2 sans focktacular english dub 

[Van Cruncheon]

is sega rally revo good? i preordered it just out of general naive hope

[drohne]

i like the demo a lot. i thought it'd just be some rally game they were calling 'sega rally,' but no, IT REALLY PLAYS LIKE SEGA RALLY

[Van Cruncheon]

omg sexcellent

[Smooth Groove]

The newest Sega Rally is disappointing in the visuals department though.  Dirt looks almost a whole gen better.

Who cares, Sega Rally Revo looks LIKE Sega Rally. Good enough for me.

[Mupepe]

i don't care about the graphics in sega rally.  the gameplay and deformation = omg

[hyp]

i don't care about the graphics in sega rally.  the gameplay and deformation = omg

the use of rumble in the game is fucking amazing too... when you're driving over the deformations, you can actually feel the tires dig in.  unlike motorstorm.

they really overdid it with the bloom in dirt, imo.
