So, I'm curious why people that don't like RPGs are even posting in this thread about their dislike of RPGs. That's kind of asinine...

It's terrible, period. In a nutshell, it's a generic FPS with poor AI, LOTS of bugs, and cookiecutter weapons, environments and enemies. It DOES have a moderately-entertaining catch in the form of Nectar...but at some point during the game, they take the only mildly-interesting thing about the game away from you for the sake of a weak, weak story.

Otacon: Sorry Snake I forgot you don't have to change the disks we are on the PS3.......Oh **** no we aren't Snake really change the disks this is the 360 we are on 3 disks now :/.kernelyoyo

Basically. It boils down to Kojima's standards and principles. He will never release a product that he personally feels is substandard, and MGS4 on 360 would certainly be that. If you don't believe it go read the article about id's Rage requiring 2 dual-layer DVDs and STILL having worse graphics than the PS3 version (which will require 1 Blu-Ray disc) because of the file compression. That's what he meant about "MGS4 not being possible on any other console." Kojima Hideo would not release a version of MGS4 with graphics and audio that didn't equal those of the version already out. End of story.

[QUOTE="CaptainSuperman"]

[QUOTE="shroom76"]cant happen, activision makes all the marvel games now... i dont think actiblizz would be too happy to give up marvel for a game that will only be out for a month than be discontinued for reasons impossible to understand...Denji

Can't happen? Maybe. But please read this is you already havn't. This link was posted in another thread a while back, and I think it's important for everyone to read it.

Also, Capcom used to make all of the Marvel games before Activision cause they had A CONTRACT. Activision doesn't have complete control over Marvel's games. It's just a contract just like everybody else. A contract that expires. Their contract expired with Capcom and I guess they were sick of Capcom's 1 on 1 fighting only style and wanted to expand. So they didn't resign.

W...T...F? Where did you come up with that theory?

It's about money, dude, it has nothing to do with the style or quality of the games. Activision was willing to pay to hold an exclusive license, and Marvel jumped at the money. Comics don't really sell these days, it's all about movies and licensing.

After all, that crappy Rise of the Imperfects game was a one-on-one fighter...

And Capcom never had an exclusive license: they were making MvC and all of its predecessors, but plenty of other companies made other Marvel-based games at the time.

[QUOTE="Silent-Hal"]

Doubt it. It looks like it'll be on equal footing with Jericho, Haze, Blacksite, Timeshift and all the other sub par FPS games. I won't be buying it, that's for sure.

Why opt for this when there's Bioshock and Resistance 2?

XxAnubisxX

Yeah you're most likely right... just looks interesting... I already have bioshock on my computer tho, and of course I won't miss out on Resistance 2

Then you might wanna take a look at Far Cry 2...unless you're gonna get that on PC as well.

As for Legendary, it just seems like the same ole crap. Not interested.

Blu-Ray is what really makes the difference. Rage will merely be the first in a long line of games that will require more than 1 dual-layer DVD just to fit the entire game, not to mention the drop in audio and graphical quality that will come from the compression of the files on said dual-layer DVDs. Microsoft really shouldn't have been so cheap when they were designing the system and included on-board HD-DVD at launch...they'll pay for it in the long-run.

Oblivion. I really like the game and all, but having the entire game world level up with you makes your character growth feel pointless. I never felt like I was accomplishing anything because, no matter how high you level, the only mobs that you can really just tear through were the rats, goblins, and bandits.

Big month for RPG fans
  • Valkyria Chronicles
  • The Last Remnant
  • Eternal Sonata
  • White Knight Story --- hopefully

johanlee

Eternal Sonata drops Oct. 21st. I guess that's another one to add to my list of reasons I'll be broke next month.

White Knight Story is doubtful, since there's no Gamestop listing yet.

The Last Remnant will probably come to the PS3 in December or January. Microsoft paid to make it a temporary exclusive, like Eternal Sonata. I don't know what they hope to accomplish with that strategy, other than pissing off people that don't own 360s...but that's probably enough for them.

[QUOTE="hillelslovak"]Its a great looking game. I wouldnt say its the best looking game ever like so many people on these forums, but the graphics are great.Cactus_Matt

So what would you say ARE the best graphics on a PS3 game so far? Open to everyone's opinion of course.

MGS4, period. SC4 would be 2nd.
