Game

If they can get a low price tag on it, then it's a really smart move by Sony.

[maxy]

apparently $200 or little lower

As for smart,dunno.Lower price is good,but it can also heavily backfire if system is gimped too much.

To me this just show how console makers really live in the past,no wonder that console business is slowly crumbling down.Storage space should not be a luxury item in this growing DD age.
I'm starting to believe certain PS4 rumor---no storage space by default,just like Vita*


*
Vita has some storage on board,locked for system purposes

[Takao]

It's supposedly $179 for the 12GB model. The memory will probably be a part of the board, and not something like the HDDs in current PS3s. It's kind of silly given some of the other SKUs that are only $50-$100 more have a tonne more storage.

[Huff]

Sony still copying Nin I see. Smh

[Eel O'Brian]

12GB? Are you fucking serious? That's like 2 game installs. You can't even install games on external HDDs for the PS3!

i'd bet anything there will be an hdd slot to add your own

1 game install for stuff like Gran Turismo 5.

Yep, that's my bet too. The other alternative is a firmware patch that allows game installs to external HDDs. It will be interesting to see if Sony can get it out in time to undercut the Wii U launch.

[Eel O'Brian]

i would imagine they will throw in a game and a 1-3 month PS+ card, as well

if it's $179, and releases this fall, you'll likely see a bunch of stores/sites offering a $25 gift card or extra game/controller with purchase

Smart move, lots of kids would prefer a grown up console for Xmas with a library of cool games then the WiiU.

Still behind the Vita.

Vita >>>> Wii U

[Cerveza mas fina]

I'm talking about Europe, East and South Europe will eat this up.

[TakingBackSunday]

Zero Mission is fucking awesome.  Wonderful game to run through in a day.  So fast-paced.

For me:

MP > SM = ZM > MP3 > MF > MP2 > Other M > M2 > Metroid > Hunters

[Tasty]

Other M over Hunters? You definitely be tripping.

[Raban]

You haven't even played it!

I honestly can't understand how you praise Metroid Prime Hunters. I'm a giant fan of Metroid and while I don't hate that game, it comes off as the most boring and stale entry in the series.

[Freyj]

On Metroid: http://kayin.pyoko.org/?p=494

[Positive Touch]

maybe hunters seems exciting when youve only played only played like two fps games ever

also didnt andrex leave after oscar ripped on him for not playing lttp? or did he just not like it? regardless, YOU SUCK AS A NINTENDO FAN FOR NOT PLAYING SO MANY OF THEIR GOLDEN ERA GAMES

[Cerveza mas fina]

Did you play Links Awakening Andrex?

It just seems so strange to me you can be a Nintendo fanboy without playing their best games.

[Cindi Mayweather]

Link's Awakening is overrated, play LttP instead.

Could be, I never had a SNES. Mega Drive fo life!

[TakingBackSunday]

LttP has aged so poorly, blugh.  LA is better.

[CajoleJuice]

Super Metroid owns

And I first played it right before Metroid Prime came out.

I can't remember if I prefer Zero Mission or Fusion. I'll just go with ZM since that's what everyone is doing.

[Cindi Mayweather]

I beat lttp for the 1st time a couple years go. Great experience.

Well it's not like you had to worry about playing the greats from any other system

True. But it's still hard.

I feel bad for future gamers born today. There is absolutely no way they'll be able to play all of gaming's "staples" unless they set out to do it and have no life for ~5 years straight.

I remember Oscar being skeptical about Rayman Legends due to the touch screen stuff and I said something to the effect of 'stop whining, it's a free fifth player'.  Mea culpa:

- In the single player mode a good portion of the game will be played as Murfy. Rayman will be AI controlled and Murfy (the player) is his protector
- There will still be some "classic" levels where you can play as Rayman in single player

[Flannel Boy]

Yes, I too feel bad for children who can choose, through both legal and illegal emulation, to play the best games of the last seven or eight generations. Why couldn't they have been children of the eighties, restricted to playing a few games (often a crap-shoot) on expensive cartridges for technologically inferior systems.

[Tasty]

Yeah, I don't feel sorry they have a ton of content to discover anytime they choose (as I do, as I still have yet to play some Nintendo classics myself), but more that amount of time they need to invest in order to "cover their bases" and not be ridiculed for "missing" something someone considers a staple for you to consider yourself a gamer. "OMG you never played the original Halo or Mario?? You're not a gamer!"

[MCD]

Halo invented gaming so just play that and you will know it all.

The worst part is, I'm not even mad - I just realised I am starting fights on the internet in order to procrastinate.  That's just pitiful.

Huh what 

So a "good portion" (50% or more apparently from the vid) of the game doesn't let you have manual control of rayman while playing alone?

You're not a real gamer!

Ancel

Hoping it supports just playing with the Protroller for everything.

[Trent Dole]

haha wow so the new Rayman is fucking garbage then.

[Madrun Badrun]

Sounds bad.  Though I like the concept in theory.  Yoshi touch and go was cool.  Still why take the chance at fucking up something that was already really good and not stale.

[Raban]

nuke this thread from orbit

Seriously.

demi can you just make a script where a thread automatically locks itself after the first page when Andrex has the most posts in it?

[Tasty]

I'd just move to other threads, spreading like a cancer and getting all the threads killed until there is nothing left.

Haha, no wonder this is Wii U exclusive. Babby game, confirmed. Ubisoft trolls Ninterdos again with their launch titles.

Can I just say it? Ancel blows.

Denies ripping off NSMBW with the bubble mechanic in Origins.

Rips off HarmoKnight with gimmicky out of place music levels.

Forces singe player to be played with a touch screen in a goddamn precision platformer.

I have no idea why people have put him on a pedestal as one of gaming's "great" game designers. His games get off on the Euro version of whimsy ("charm") more than anything these days. "OH WOW RAYMAN ORIGINS SUCH PRETTY GRAPHICS. Look how babby and stupid NSMBW looks!"

[Cindi Mayweather]

How has LttP aged badly in any way?

He also hasn't made a sequel to Beyond Good & Evil. What a loser.

If they had, they've would have all rushed out to purchase SMB3 immediately.

[Takao]

Andrex do you really think he stole anything from HarmoKinghts? Wasn't that game revealed like 3 weeks ago? Ubisoft ain't got 4000 people working on Rayman, no way they get that done in time to be a copy.

[Tasty]

Lol I figured I'd just throw that in there for good measure. Obviously there are other, previous running platformer with musical elements Ancel ripped off.

[Owl-faced Wizard]

That is not good measure, that is bad measure.  Any games Ancel is ripping off must also be ripped off by Harmoknights.  You worthless sack of shit.

[Oblivion]

Seriously, how the hell has LttP not aged well?

Neither LttP or LA have aged poorly, though the latter has always mystified me as to why it's so popular. It's basically LttP on a smaller scale, with uglier grafix, and a different plot, if being a storyfeggit is your thing.
