[QUOTE="cabjnico"][QUOTE="the1stmoonfly"]What the point in a mech game where the mechs are as agile as people, the whole point of a mech is that its a massive, armoured machine with huge guns on it. This isnt for me, when a proper mech sim comes out i look into it, this looks like a bad looking lost planet, that game was fun, this looks naff.the1stmoonfly


Like many mechs exist in real life

Oh come on, so im expected to buy that they can run around like mountin goats and fly like birds, any large machine we currently build is slow, and adding real life attributes like this is what makes a game for me, im into realism as much as possible. Its just harder to make a game when you have to think about how these machines will really move instead of having them fly all over the place as fast as a cheetah.



The armored core games are known for having a huge amount of customization that other mech games lack one of these attributes is your mech size and weight. Sure while flying and using boosters you can move fast(doing so using fuel or energy) but if you build a heavy mech with alot of heavy firepower you manuvarability while walking will be very cumbersome. obviously they aren't going to show that aspect in a trailer where excitement and action is what they want to show. If anything the armored core games big appeal is building a mach to suit your playing preference

2nd edit apparently the word s t y l e gives a forbidden message wierd glitch to say the least

i dont get why so many ppl love metal gears...i mean only 1 of all tis games has ever gotten a AAA rating, and there are tons of games like metal gears out right now.
so why r ppl buying ps3's for this game?

the first 1 was kinda good but then the rest sucked. then they kept getting credit for their games just cuz their first one was good.
just like final fantasy, ff7 and ff10 was good but then almsot most of the other ff games are the same as any other rpg with nothing special exept for brand name and hot chicks.
the thing with ps3 exclusives is u can never tell if they can produce the same good quality game they dd in the last ones
chewy130


the fact you said there arte lots of games like it speaks volums about your opinion on the sewries which = squat. THe metal gear games are totally unique. Snakes camoflage and survival element as well as the the close quaters disarming combat from mgs 3 were all totally unique, although I admit the camo was inspired from sc light index which even kojima admitshe was inspired by. You are also wrong about the score mgs 2 and MGS 3 subsitanance both scored AAA scores. The fact they have involving and complex stories like no other series also is a big draw also can be a turn off for people who just want to shoot stuff but for those who like it it is a big draw. Throw in some of the best boss battles around and the series attention is definately warrented.
On another note the fact you mention the "only good" ff as 7 and 10 show how ignorant to both series you are. FF 6 by fans standards is still the best including my own not to mention 4 and 5 were amazing for their time throw in FF12's AAA score and well you get the point its obvious you don't like these games that much but please don't try to act like your opinion is valid especially with your obviously limited experience with both series.

Thats only like 750 people surveyed.. I dont feel like doing the math to get the exact number. Yet there are 300,000 360 owners , 600,000 PS3 owners , and millions of PS2 , DS, and PSP owners in Japan. Not EVERYONE in japan took this survey. That does not mean that 360 is gettin played more than PS3 and vice versa.asdasd


not to mention the fact the survey asked what was the most played over the holiday season....wasn't there a big rpg released around then for teh 360 yet it still came 4th.

I don't understand first they say its unresponsive and then they say the cars are too twitchy. Maybe they just don't understand that formula one cars are twitchy by nature seeing as they are going 200+mph. gamespots preview as well as ign preview seemed much more positive and until I see the full review can't really judge it by just a blurb needless to say I'm predicting AA here at gamespot and ign.

In my opinion the wii success is not so much hurting sony right now as it is hurting MS, right now the 360 has the strongest linup but the wii's price and innovative ideas are making it fly off shelves right now and is slowing the 360's growth. As a sony fan I admit the linup and price are hurting sony right now but sony traditionally supports their hardware longer than the competition

what I see happening is the ps3 fanbase will slowly but steadily grow while the wii eats away at the 360's market share once sony's linup improves and the price comes down it will start to gain ground on the 360 and wii. I see both the wii and ps3 passing the 360 in the next 2 years because of stronger international support and eventually depending on how long nintendo supports the wii before it brings its next console out the ps3 will eventually pass the wii in 4-5 years. no doubt the race this gen will be alot closer but if MS brings its next console out 4-5 years from  now like they did with the xbox lifecycle I can't see it winning overall this gen especially with its poor japan support. If sony suppoprts its system for 6-7 years like the ps2 before bringing out the ps4 or whatever its called I see that stronger longterm support helping them win.

I will say that if nintendo supports the wii for as long as the ps3 it should win this gen with a 10-15 milion install base lead but if things occur similar to this gen I see sony winning with 80-90 miilion units nintendo second with70-80 ,million and MS 3rd with 40-50 milion. now all this is speculation and Ms could win if it stays in the race for the long haul but from what I have seen by MS strategy is they want to shorten the gen's lifespan 4-5 years instead of 6-7 like sony wants. that shorter lifespan drastically cuts down their potential sales. Another determining factor is whether the wii gets quality support throughout the gen its started off great but if the games become derivitive that could be another factor in both sony's and MS favor.

I agree to some extent in that PC with medium settings will give you about what you get on consoles(provided you are using a fairly new setrup) when it comes to textures and shaders because thats what PC cards excel at but I disagree in a way because if developers code well you can get better results when it comes to poly counts and stable framerates on consoles which is why you get a game like Gears which was coded specifically for the xbox 360 that looks better than most PC games if not all PC games at the m,oment. If a game shares a platform with the pc it will always look better than the console counterparts but console exvlusive when coded right can look better than even games on high end rigs.

I think the more appropriate analogy would be major league baseball

sony=the yankees the team everybody who aren't already fans loves to hate, very succesfull with a very big and loyal fanbase

MS=the red sox also a big fanbase but not quite as big as the yankees, always contends but very rarely wins it all.

nintendo=okland atheletics spends little money and tries new ideas to be sucessful, and are always competitive

[QUOTE="XaosII"]

[QUOTE="Ontain"]"And as for the PS2 vs PS3 development question. I was chatting to Michiel and he was telling me how crazy-easy it was compared to the PS2 and how much quicker things have been going for them. I will take his word on that." yet they still couldn't get any killzone2 gameplay ready into and had to use outsourced CGI. a comparison to ps2 doesn't mean that much because we all know the ps2 was a biatch to program for. and thats why it took nearly it's whole life time to get somewhat close to it's hype. mave198

Here's your answer.

UT2K7 running on PS3 hardware in under 2 months, as stated by Epic.

MGS 4 trailer in under 6 months.

Does that sound like a piece of hardware that is a nightmare to dev for???

Didn't think so.



Too bad Epic stated its extremely costly and difficult to develop on the PS3. And all we've talk is from that noob, Kojima, who wouldn't know the difference between an "If" statement and a variable. What exactly makes him qualified to talk about hardware?



you do realize most of kojimas interviews are translated some word/phrases are hard to translate...he's a dev a veteran console dev at that and as talented as carmack is on the PC side I would trust kojimas word over his when it comes to consoles. The fact that kojimas team was able to acheive what they did on ps2 with Z.O.E and MGS is qualification enough not to mention he has been in the industry since the 80's longer than carmack, sweeny and a list of other very talented developers he has seen hardware evolve. If you can't appreciate what kojima has done in the industry I suggest you just be quiet because you know nothing. Whether you like his games or not you have to give him credit as one of the most influential and intelligent devs out there.
