BizSpots: Nintendo, Xfire, NaturalMotion

We've finally found a new importer. About time....

The Xfire in the game is not a bad idea. I've used it without it being integrated in the game but it sometimes gets very...troublesome to keep exiting out of my game to work the chat stuff...

late late late, all are late, any title with near date ?

mhder - Except that we all know that the harder something is to find, the more people will want it. If Wiis were readily available, the sales numbers would dry up

Yeah well. What else is new. In Europe they are also charged more than the US. Still planning on getting the Wii though. Not that much more expensive than the US one.

Wow. Rock on, Io Interactive, the creator of the Hitman series!

Poor South Africans, at least they don't have to import now.

Wow, pricewise, this is pretty harsh for South African gamers. Not just for the Wii, but ow, that's a pretty penny for any next-gen system.

Shortage is fixed? Why would you fix a shortage in an industry where your main goal is to sell games? Without the console, the game is useless. Fix a shortage and you can't sell any games - especially in the case of Nintendo which is a game maker as well. With an artificial shortage, you would lose 3rd party support as well. A fixed shortage in gaming makes no sense

its about flipping time.. i had to order my Wii from the UK and getting games is a very expensive mission..

beckoflight : they are going to use it in another title.. But, I like the hellgate news. I love xfire =)

Well i want KANE & Lynch so bad please do not delay it !

Wii going to the jungle!

Steep price over there in South Africa... but people want it and will buy it.

Wait, Nintendo can't push enough Wiis to satisfy demand in Japan, Europe and the US, but they're launching the system in South Africa? And then they WONDER why everyone believes the "shortage" is fixed?

This [url=<< LINK REMOVED >>]engine[/url] is the technology that IO Interactive is implementing. It's awesome. I could only imagine how immersive Hitman would become if it employed NaturalMotion's technology. [url=<< LINK REMOVED >>]Check it out.[/url]

Never liked xfire.

xfire makes me sad, why not just get their own voip, Most people i know have never seen a point in getting xfire, oh boy now i can see that ive wasted X ammount of hours of my life playing a game (or just idled like so many losers seem to do). Why not use a good voip program like Teamspeak or vent something with good sounding codecs and not having to sign up for some pointless app. sorry i just have really grown to dislike xfire as i see it as a useless program that does everything with mediocrity but does nothing well.

Wow, South Africa has a weird currency system.

I hope this next Io game is a new Hitman title.

Xfire + Hellgate = yes please!

I love Xfire

go hellgate FTW

Xfire is awesome; can't wait for Hellgate.

$920 for a PS3? Sucks to be them
