Big promises from game developer and then not in game...

Anyone get annoyed when developers promise a new feature in a game and it doesnt make the game at all? I remember Capcom promising a metre in RE5 which was like Eternal Darkness *sanity metre* which meant the more it depleted the more illusionations you started having if out in the sun to long. What the hell happened to this?!

When they get peter molyneux syndrome?

They probably got rid of it because it sounds like a stupid feature.

Not sure about developers, but I find watching the 2005 Sony conference a laugh.

Has any game on PS3 to date demonstrated these sort of capabilities? If you listen to it you also get to enjoy BS claims like "PS3 is as easy to develop for as PC, everything we can do on PC is instantly transferable to the PS3" and something along the lines of "shaders previously required CPU farms to run, only now can we run them in real time on the PS3".

Don't forget 4D. :P

By the way, have you any idea what Sony meant by "extended game display" and "multi applications". :?

As for me although I'm having a blast with it at the minute, I'm a little bit disappointed that the whole good vs evil premise wasn't used more creatively in inFAMOUS. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it didn't penalise you for harming civilians like in the awful Shadow the Hedgehog (:lol:), but I just wish there could have been more ways to do good deeds and bad deeds in the game than just the moral choice mode in the main missions and a couple of the side missions.

Sony said you could have live webcam video while playing a multiplayer game, one of the features was to offload these webcam images and other applications to a second screen as you can see in the image. The other thing was to have game HUD/interface elements on a second screen so that the game play screen would be completely clear.

Did any of these make it into the PS3? I expect not.
