Serious question: Is there anything worthwhile for the ps3 soon?

[Billy Rygar]

 

[Rman]

You mean PS3 exclusive?  DMC4 and Burnout are due soon but their multi platform.

[MCD]

soon?

mostly multi like dmc4.

but there is white knight story and disgaea 3, in japan anyway.

[Rman]

I do mean exclusive.  DMC4 with either controller makes me weep.  :'(

Yeah, I agree.
Sony really messed up the L2/R2 buttons.

[MCD]

I do mean exclusive.  DMC4 with either controller makes me weep.  :'(

there is always the PC version.

[Himu]

Haze is now multiplatform.

[MCD]

When is Haze coming out?  I like Free Radical (to a point) and would consider buying it if I had little else to play.

Update: Ars was contacted by Ubisoft again last night to correct what was previously said: the new release window is indeed January-March 2008 (or Q4), and thus the game could very well end up arriving in March.

and it's like UT3, first PS3 then 360 as far as i know.

[Smooth Groove]

Cohen, you can use the PS2 controller on PS3 games with a USB adapter.  

Speaking of controllers,  I would get Burnout for the PS3 if its triggers didn't suck so much.  Until the PS3 gets a controller with triggers, I don't think I'll be buying any multiplatform racers for it.  

[MrAngryFace]

BLURAYS!

[Himu]

Oh snap. You can use ps2 controller on ps3?

[MCD]

usb adapters? aren't they unreliable and some doesn't support rumble even?

[Smooth Groove]

Are you serious?  That is fucking awesome.

Yeah, I've tried it before and it worked.  I've got a Pelican adapter which has a PS home button that makes it more easily compatible with PS3 games.  It supports many controllers including the PS2 GH controllers but it doesn't support rumble.  

My USB adapter for the PC also works and does have rumble but the buttons aren't mapped correctly.  There are probably newer adapters now that are just as compatible as the Pelican without having to sacrifice rumble.  

[MrAngryFace]

I was trolling and you take me seriously and make me look like them. FUK U GENGHIS

lol.

[Rman]

This is good fucking news.  Devil May Cry deserves the DS.

I read that DS as Nintendo DS at first.

[MrAngryFace]

Just get a PSP and hack it and experience gaming nirvana

lol.

$85's too much for just an adapter.  I might as well get one of those custom made joysticks that was recently reviewed on IGN.  

[MCD]

yeah, it's expensive and there are newer versions of it too

version 2: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-eq-77-2-49-en-15-xfps-70-24pc.html

anyway, what custom joystick smooth? this?

[hyp]

nope.  at least SSHD came out with a patch for custom soundtracks.  that'll get you by for a week or two.  too bad the custom soundtrack feature is fucking broke.

[drohne]

dmc4
burnout

[calcifer]

i like how some of talk as if 360 is getting loads of games in the near future

i have played a real game on it since mass effect and i've hardly had it on at all since

and looking at the release schedule that isnt going to change any time soon

at least ps3 have the superior version of the only good game this spring (dmc4)

[MrAngryFace]

lol calcifer tried to pull gaf shit in this thread, nice

[Vizzys]

February will rock

everyone get a ds and play advance wars with me till then

No one is talking about 360, they're asking about PS3. If PS3 had kept gamers' fingertips raw throughout 2007 like 360 had, no one would have asked the question. Couple that with the Sony contingent's OMG 2008 IS THE YEAR OF PS3 and a barren first half is kind of a head scratcher.

[Himu]

Most of my anticipated games this year are multiplatform but 360 has more interesting games than ps3 on the way.

I'll still get a ps3 for some game I forgot, but hey, whatever makes you sleep at night taco.

[Cormacaroni]

I do mean exclusive.  DMC4 with either controller makes me weep.  :'(

there is always the PC version.

Apparently the PC port of RE4 didn't even have mouse support; fans had to hack it in after release. So I don't have a whole lot of confidence in Capcom's concern for the PC gamer. I've never played any of the DMC games on PC though.

[drew]

If you're not looking forward to DMC4, you're simply a lost soul.

If I knew that would support PS2 arcade sticks (of which I have several), i'd buy it and VF5. But it doesn't quite say that anywhere. I'd been burned in the past due to differing button layouts. But on the other hand, I have 4 arcade sticks in the house and no way am i buying another boatload for this gen.

RE4, Onimusha 3 and DMC3 PC editions were developed and published by SourceNext in Japan, Ubisoft published them in the West.

It wasn't developed by Capcom or Ubisoft for that matter, if you want to see a good PC port handled in house by Capcom, see Lost Planet PC.

i don't think it does and you don't need to bother really, it's a ripoff.

[Eel O'Brian]

i'm in the minority here, but i am looking forward to burnout

[MCD]

I have a lovely Hori RAP2 that I can't use for VF5.   :'(  Why is there 9 FUCKING MEMEORY SLOTS I DON'T USE BUT I CAN'T PUT IN MY OLD CONTROLLERS OR MEMORY CARDS.

Simple, they want to profit from new accessories.

it's business.

It also offers the tantalizing prospect of being able to use the awesome-o Logitech driving wheel in Forza 2 etc. but i strongly suspect if this was possible, they'd be trumpeting it all over the place. It probably supports wheels in some minimal fashion but only with the same degree of turn as the MS wheel and with no rumble or something equally butt-painful. Thanks for saving me $85!

I really want to look forward to Burnout, but alas, the demo ruined it for me. Let me know how the final version is, I might change my mind if enough sane people like it.

I'm looking forward to Devil May Cry 4, while my wife REALLY wants Singstar (delayed until May? What the fuck?).

[abrader]

I dont know what you like - but this is what I am buying......

- Next multi

Turok (big maybe depending on what becomes of it)

and/or

Devil May Cry 4

- NExt exclusive

Tekken 6
GT5 Prologue
Soul Calibur IV VADAR edition (j/k)

Maybe catch up with games from 2005

[bluemax]

When is that out? '07 ruined my life for a full month.

March I think. That's usually when baseball games come out. The PSP version owned my summer, hopefully I'll have a job so I can buy the PS3 version this year.

you're just making yourself look like an idiot... read what i said and shut up

btw this site was xbot central long before i joined

[AdmiralViscen]

I read what you said. It's the same old "only losers talk sales, unless we're in PS3's safe zone."

This place has tons of multiconsole owners, unfortunately PS3 has been a massive disappointment up till now. And that doesn't seem to be changing much through the first half of 08 (or beyond?). I would be very pleased if there were reasons to turn my PS3 on that weren't already covered by my 360.

Perhaps if the Sony contingent didn't feel the need to label every new month as THE CORNER TURNED then multiconsole owners wouldn't feel the need to lolz all the time.

[AdmiralViscen]

Actually it's working fine for me lol

Amazing how a sequel to a launch game (shock of shocks) counts as a megaton for PS3. The rest is irrelevant.


I didn't think this brilliant post left much for interpretation:

Also you can drop the XBot shit, I've had every console for like 3 months at this point.
