the only reason the ps2 sold in such high numbers was the shortage of normal dvd players in japan. once that massive userbase was installed, they sold games. sony have always ripped off nintendo to such an extent that the playstation it's self is actually a brainchild of both nintendo and sony. Only sony pulled out of the…
[ QUOTE ] Sony has been messing with motion tech for a long time, so don't say they're copying Nintendo, either. [/ QUOTE ] You mean like how Nintendo came out with an analog thumb-stick, and shortly there after Sony just happened to come out with the dual analog controller? And then when Nintendo introduced the rumble…
It's pretty disipointing, but time will tell. Way to start E3 off on a sour note...and way to send Nintendo out in front Sony without them even speaking.
[ QUOTE ] It's now wireless (bluetooth), and has motion sensor tech, similar to Wii's (sans the laser). Sony has been messing with motion tech for a long time, so don't say they're copying Nintendo, either. [/ QUOTE ]The fact that its obviously a last minute feature that they've only managed to jerry-rig the one game to…
So, tilt technology in a standard controller? Microsoft Freestyle Pro anyone? That thing sucked... Remember how Nintendo was so reluctant to show the controller because they were afraid it would be stolen and people kept calling them paranoid? Sadly, Sony's so far ahead in the console wars that no amount of bs is ever…
[ QUOTE ] WTF? http://www.gamesradar.com/gb/ps3/game/ne...;sectionId=1006 [/ QUOTE ] To be honest, I wish Nintendo and Microsoft would do something similar. The games industry loses so much money from used game sales and rentals. If the retailers would still give a cut from re-sales and rentals, the publishers wouldn't…
"Sony has been messing with motion tech for a long time, so don't say they're copying Nintendo, either." They also went and called the Wii remote a gimmick, saying that Sony didn't need to pursue gimmicks and were focused on advancing the tried and true gameplay that we all know and love. Geez, come on, of course they…
Okay, so they unvieled the PS3 controller. It looks exactly the same as the PS2 controller. It's now wireless (bluetooth), and has motion sensor tech, similar to Wii's (sans the laser). Sony has been messing with motion tech for a long time, so don't say they're copying Nintendo, either. I'm disappointed though, to be…
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I was actually very impressed. The graphics, animation, and networking stuff all seemed great, and the controller seemed to me to be much nicer than the Wii's. I'll have to wait until I see both, but after seeing the press conference I'm damned impressed. [/ QUOTE ] "WERE PLAYING BACK THIS VIDEO, IN…
I wouldn't want to use the controller light-gun style. You have to make sure that you're always pointing at the IR device, which can be pain sometimes. I agree that the simple gyroscrope type motion sensor is shitty, though. And here's a kicker for you Nintendophiles. Remember the Atari 2600? There was a motion-sensing…
