So if NGS gets a AAA score, will it count as a AAA exclusive for the PS3?

[QUOTE="Dahaka-UK"]It's not a port it's a remake like the developers said it is.. there are things that are not in the XBOX version(the next gen graphics being one of them and the extra content) therefore, the remake is considered a exclusive to PS3. And what makes you lemmings think every PS3 owner is a former XBOX owner... I'mm willing to bet at the moment PS3 users are former PS2 owners.. and they didn't get ninja gaiden on the PS2 did they, so therefore it's a NEW game to them.TheBigDrat

but I can play 80% of it on my Xbox 360 via NG:Black. therefore its not exclusive

But 80% of the xbox version has been remade for the PS3, not ported... The story and the level design are the same obviosly everything else is different. And this is NEXT GEN, why would you play a LAST GEN version over a NEXT GEN one... isnt this gen all about graphics? Or don't you lemmings care for graphics anymore?

Just because it's polished doesn't mean it's remade.  The game is a port.  Get over it.

People, NGS is NOT A PORT. it is a completely remade game, from the ground up. No porting involved.

Regardless of it's score, it's an exclusive. I don't care if you've played the same missions before, it's exclusive.

jg4xchamp

wow, its a port, remake is basically the same exact thing. sure Sigma is a ground up PS3 game. SUre SIgma will have better graphics and some extra content. But that story has been told allready. The missions have been played allready. Nothing in terms of gameplay will be changed in this game. MGS twin snakes wasnt an exclusive, it was a remake of a PS1 game. NGS isnt an exclusive its a remake of an xbox 1 game.

Port and remake are defiantly not the same thing. If Square Enix remade FFVII with all the same characters, environments items and dialoge, would you consider it a port?

Port= Taking a game and chaning it so it will play on another system, basically.

Remake= Creating an entire game, but with the key points of the game being the same as its original, basically.

NGS is a REMAKE. No reason why it shouldn't be considered an exclusive.

if it's rebuilt from the ground up then it's not a port. this doesn't always mean it's exclusive either, though.

resistance scores an 8.6 at gamespot. let's use gamerankings instead!!

ninja gaiden sigma...exclusive!!

what long standing system wars game rules are you guys going to try to change next?

CaseyWegner

if the drought of non-exclusive AAA titles keeps missing the PS3, they'll start to say they can play the AAA titles of the PS2 on the PS3 and that they should count as well..  I hope I didn't give them any ideas.

genma onimusha, REmake, ng:black, etc. were never considered exclusives. why start now?CaseyWegner

If being rebuilt completely doesn't alone not constitute being exclusive, what else does it need? Content? I feel NGS has enough extra content to be considered an exclusive.

By your logic Unreal Tourny 3 will be a PS3 exclusive as well since it has an engine built from the ground up for the PS3.  Even though the game will essentially be the same as the 360 version (except for slightly slower framerates and slightly lower graphical prettiness).

Not according to the developer interview that was posted on this very site... It's a remake... sorry... There fact > your opinion... I think you should get over the fact your never going to play the improved fun(er) version.

By this thinking Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance would be an exclusive xbox AA title as well.

Nice try Sony fans to land an exclusive by bending rules.

You silly cows, you can't just change the system wars rules like some above posters mentioned if NG:Sigma is exclusive then GRAW and Guitar Hero 2 are also Xbox360 exclusives, from what i have seen/read its basicly the same game with some new better graphics and some rachel action. Im not saying its a bad game or anything on the contrary its a great game but people that have an xbox or a xbox360 have probably alredy played it and its the same experience like in NG:Sigma.

To be exclusive, the game needs to be an ENTIRELY NEW GAME. If it was remade and you play as a Motorcycle called Paul who takes on America using nothing but a plate of bacon as a weapon, it'd be exclusive, because it's something you CANT DO ON OTHER CONSOLES.

As it is, NG:S, is a non-exclusive remake, with some exclusive content. It's not an exclusive.

No. Thats not my logic at all. :| What engines home is means nothing... And I'm pretty sure Unreal Engine3 is built for the PC.

Substance was on PS2 also :P

six months after it was released on xbox.....likely the same thing that will happen to sigma when they realize that with sony's poor sales the game won't make any money.

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/793/793679p1.html 

NG isnt known for its sales.. Neither Ninja gaiden or Black sold even a million.. 

so they don't make any money then?

The director of Sigma said they dont care about sales (of their games)

I really don't care what the PS3 bashers on this forum have to say, if the game gets an AAA score it's AAA exclusive in my eyes.  I've never played the Xbox versions of the game so I'm really excited on this game.  Anyone can sit here and say, it's a port, it doesn't count or Forza 2 doesn't deserve the score it got, but at the end of the day the consumer will be happy with both games.

Epic made UT3 from the ground up for the PS3.  They are doing the same thing for the PC.  The story will be the same as they just drop in their code that runs on top of their engine and then make changes to optimize for the engine it's running on.  But the engine running UT3 for the PS3 is NOT the same engine as the one on the PC.  In other words it's not a port, but it is the same game.  same story line, same gameplay, same character models. Sure the PC and 360 will look better, but that doesnt' make it exclusive to either platform. Also if epic adds extra content to each one (like soul caliber did) it won't make it exclsuive either.

it won't matter, because it won't get a AAA score... even though it's the best version of the game thus far.

then you'll get the weirdos coming in saying NGB is better because of the higher score.

as far as exclusivity goes.  it's PS3 exclusive so far.  GS says it themselves in their latest preview.  the improvement in visuals is indeed significant, and there's enough gameplay additions to set it apart from the others.

Just like xbox has an exclusive version of Guitar Hero 2. And the wii is getting an exclusive Resident Evil 4.  Heck why not change all the rules we've been using in system wars to make the flopstation3 appear better than it is.

Why not count all PS2 AAA Exclusives as PS3 exclusives also?  I mean you can play them on the PS3 so why not?

 Ok so whay you are saying is that Guitar Hero 2 and GRAW are exclusives? I bet you haven't even played the original NG or NGB if you have you would know this game is the same with improved graphics and a little new content the gameplay is exactly the same.Like I said I don't think that people who have alredy played the original NG or NGB will be buying it but its still a must buy for the people that haven't played either.

What the hell are you talking about?  What I'm saying is that the consumer will enjoy games like Sigma, Guitar Hero 2 for the 360, and RE4 with Wii controls... I don't give a **** about what System Wars thinks, no one cares besides a couple hundred people who post on these forums.  Don't get all nervous just yet, Sigma won't get AAA here on GS.

It is an exclusive because it provides that NEXT GEN experience that cannot be done on the XBOX(that was LAST GEN) and also gives me that extra content, thats enough for those who have played it before to buy it again but lets face it those who have played it before are xbox owners so.. they would have to have a PS3 and I really doubt the majority of XBOX owners are now PS3 owners.. PS2 owners didn't get Ninja Gaiden, so it will be a totally different and NEW game to those who moved from PS2 to PS3(The majority at the moment)...  Everyone wouldn't be screaming for an FF7 remake if they could just go play the FF7 for PS1 and get the same experience out of it.

I'm not talking lead platform (besides Epic changed that).  I'm saying the PS3 version has a custom engine made specifically for the cell.  No porting what-so-ever.  So if NG:S is exclusive by your logic so is UT3.

If being rebuilt completely doesn't alone not constitute being exclusive, what else does it need? Content? I feel NGS has enough extra content to be considered an exclusive. 

different story, different level design, different controls, etc.

Actually the majority are going to the 360 or Wii.  PS2 owners are either jumping ship or sitting tight.

I'm not talking lead platform (besides Epic changed that). I'm saying the PS3 version has a custom engine made specifically for the cell. No porting what-so-ever. So if NG:S is exclusive by your logic so is UT3.

What engine they use means nothing! That is not my logic at all! UT3 for PC,360 and PS3 will be the exact same game, but will probably have a little gameplay tweaking on the PS3 due to using a different engine.

NGS however, is far from being the exact same game as NGB.

Epic made UT3 from the ground up for the PS3. They are doing the same thing for the PC. The story will be the same as they just drop in their code that runs on top of their engine and then make changes to optimize for the engine it's running on. But the engine running UT3 for the PS3 is NOT the same engine as the one on the PC. In other words it's not a port, but it is the same game. same story line, same gameplay, same character models. Sure the PC and 360 will look better, but that doesnt' make it exclusive to either platform. Also if epic adds extra content to each one (like soul caliber did) it won't make it exclsuive either.

First you claimed since it wasn't a port but new code from the ground up (which means new engine) makes it exclusive.
Now you say 20% extra content makes it a completly different game.  Whatever, you'll say anything to find an exclusive AAA on the PS3.  ANd even then it has the potential to flop since it's the 3rd iteration of the same game.

[QUOTE="Dahaka-UK"]It is an exclusive because it provides that NEXT GEN experience that cannot be done on the XBOX(that was LAST GEN) and also gives me that extra content, thats enough for those who have played it before to buy it again but lets face it those who have played it before are xbox owners so.. they would have to have a PS3 and I really doubt the majority of XBOX owners are now PS3 owners.. PS2 owners didn't get Ninja Gaiden, so it will be a totally different and NEW game to those who moved from PS2 to PS3(The majority at the moment)... Everyone wouldn't be screaming for an FF7 remake if they could just go play the FF7 for PS1 and get the same experience out of it.mikasa

Actually the majority are going to the 360 or Wii. PS2 owners are either jumping ship or sitting tight.

 

Well at the moment there are about 3 mill PS3 owners... I'm guessing they are all hardcore sony fans that owned a PS2...

People, NGS is NOT A PORT. it is a completely remade game, from the ground up. No porting involved.

Regardless of it's score, it's an exclusive. I don't care if you've played the same missions before, it's exclusive.

Not-A-Stalker

wow, its a port, remake is basically the same exact thing. sure Sigma is a ground up PS3 game. SUre SIgma will have better graphics and some extra content. But that story has been told allready. The missions have been played allready. Nothing in terms of gameplay will be changed in this game. MGS twin snakes wasnt an exclusive, it was a remake of a PS1 game. NGS isnt an exclusive its a remake of an xbox 1 game.

Port and remake are defiantly not the same thing. If Square Enix remade FFVII with all the same characters, environments items and dialoge, would you consider it a port?

Port= Taking a game and chaning it so it will play on another system, basically.

Remake= Creating an entire game, but with the key points of the game being the same as its original, basically.

NGS is a REMAKE. No reason why it shouldn't be considered an exclusive. 

how is it an exclusive. its an old game, but now its pretty. Thats not exclusive. Remake and ports fall under the same quality. They arent new games, they may be old games redone, but not new games. That are not on other consoles. U can basically play 95% of sigma on Ninja Gaiden Black and Ninja Gaiden. Thats not exclusive.

Kind of ironic since the 360 version of GRAW is more of an exclusive then Ninja Gaiden for the PS3...

Yes it is.  Ninja Gaiden Sigma is different from NG and NG:B

 

Huge graphics upgrade, new levels, new missions, more gameplay, etc.

I agree GRAW on 360 should be considered exclusive, but unfortunately,Gamespot doesn't have it listed as exclusive.

I never said anything about codes or engines... I don't care about that. A new engine measn nothing.

And 20% is a crap-load of content. That, plus EXTREMELY beefed graphics and environments.

Because you can play them on teh PS3 and now the PS3 upscales them as well, so they are better on PS3 (minus the rumble).

They say PlayStation 2 on their boxes. They are listed as PS2 games on Gamespot. They are PS2 games, not PS3 games.

Do you know anything about computer architectures?  If so, you'll know what is meant by port and remake.  You claim remake (which I'm not arguing). But I am saying a remake != exclusive. where you are saying remake == exclusive.

Also remake == new engine & new graphics.

I don't know anything aboutr computer architectures. But I do know what a port or a remake is.

And remake does not necessarily mean its using a new engine or has better graphics. Graphics aren't everything...Â
