Newspapers deliver verdict on PS3

Sony's next generation console has made a big impact in today's newspapers – with The Guardian and Evening Standard offering very different opinions on the forthcoming PS3.

TheXgamerLive6772d ago

No, I'm not a sony fan but I also don't like how they try to make it look like an entire newspaper does or does not support a game console. it's only 1 writers views.

RFOM will be a very good title as will lair. Enjoy.

DEIx15x86772d ago

Newspapers don't matter anyway. None of their staff ever knows anything about gaming or technology. I remember reading a New York Times article last year about the 360 that had over half the information wrong. They just need to stop talking sometimes but never seem to know how.

“The first thing that hits you is the quality of the graphics. They are incredibly detailed and fast, noticeably more so than Microsoft’s Xbox 360, and often tough to distinguish from video.”

More so than Microsoft's Xbox 360? Yeah..I've seen in game video of alot of these launch titles and I can confidently say they do not look any better than what the xbox 360 has done so far. Furthermore Gears of war looks better than any game to date not to mention the enemy AI and physics are far better than those of R:FOM. So I really dont know how that guy can come to such an incorrect conclusion of the PS3 games looking better than 360 games, especially 360 exclusives, if anything they look very similar to be perfectly honest.

Because its his opinion. right or wrong, we all have em. Yours differ from his, and so on and so forth.

bung tickler6772d ago

sony has in the past "created" reporters/critics to say "XXXXX is really great! two thumbs up bla bla bla" they even got sued and lost over it here in the USA. So you cant really trust any of this garbage.

hamburgerhill6772d ago

I never knew that about Sony!

zypher6772d ago

that's a very arbitrary argument. so what, now are we to doubt every Playstation review there is, even the sound ones praising games like Ratchet and Clank, while dogging games like Killzone, simply because of Sony Picture's woes? besides, what does this have to do with SCE? if Sony has proven anything lately its that Division A operates under co-independence from Division B.

crazyman6772d ago

by any chance would devision A be the CEO's and division B the marketing department and PA team (or simply the rest of the world)

ApocalypseShadow6772d ago

microsoft lovers will continue to believe sony is paying off developers to say good things about ps3,paying the media and anyone else who sees the ps3 as being a better system out of the box than 360.maybe that's why they don't have as much money.we are all as a civilization being paid by sony."hey sony,where is my next check?" "i need it before i get my microsoft and nintendo checks next week."

EasilyTheBest6772d ago

Ps3 coming so late has caused major problems for Sony.... Ive said before that the Ps3 needs a huge buzz to be surrounding it for the 1st year, Ps1 had it and Ps2 certainly had that in droves, hence there was no chance for Sega with the excellent Dreamcast... The Papers keeps the momentum going for the average person (parant)creating what i can only call a Buzz about the console, something they should be buying... I can only ever remember the newspapers who seem to know nothing about consoles, going hysterical and believing everything from Sony hype about Ps2. Just saying, yes and i know its just the 1 paper, this aint a good sign for Sony..
If the buzz is, its not any better than 360 then Microsoft will win by a bigger margin than any1 ever expected....

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader In Fortnite

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader in Fortnite claiming this was done without notification and has filed accordingly.

spoonard7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

It's just a complaint, not a lawsuit, and it's completely unwarranted.

Garethvk6h ago

I said filed which they did. Filed a complaint.

VersusDMC5h ago

James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it.

So i don't know why SAG is getting involved as it makes it seem like they are going against james earl jones wishes or just wanted a cut...

Garethvk4h ago

They are concerned about A.I. replacing live talent. It's an unusual stance as you are correct; he left his voice and his family approved. The union is saying doing this versus using a live actor sets a bad precedent going forward. The use of A.I. has been a huge issue in the recent labor deals.

VersusDMC58m ago

Well this is also an interactive AI Darth Vader that would have made live talent impossible unless they think a actor being in Fortnight 24/7 is an acceptable solution.

They should concentrate on cases that are possible to be done with live talent and that haven't been given blessing or sold by the original actor(for which they should have the right to sell)

I'm not so sure they can, most talent that made the old games as good as they were, has left Bioware.

RaidenBlack1d 3h ago

They can always recruit old fellas,
And also, new devs can always learn and also new indie devs are very passionate evident from the amazing indie games heavy with these gameplay features.

Michiel19891d ago

I don't think anyone would wanna come back after the stories that were told from Anthem development. I just don't see it happening. It's a bit similar to blizz, some of the talent has come back there, but there has been a shift in the studio's culture and also what the higher ups expect/demand of them

matt1391d 3h ago

After andromeda and veilguard i think it’s assured that the bioware we once knew has gone, I have little hope for me4. Hopefully i’m wrong.

anast1d 1h ago

The can't. But they wouldn't even if they could.

goken22h ago

Yeah… also if pigs decided evolve wings, they could fly…

Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.

Mr_cheese3d ago

To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not

DarXyde3d ago

I mean Resident Evil 4 has had longer legs and still hasn't done anything like this.

Profchaos3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.

anast3d ago

Looks like a 2040 release for GTA6

gold_drake3d ago

thats insane right?
absolutely insane

rlow13d ago

No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.

I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.
