*joins the Flower love-in*

 

It's beautiful.

Best use of the (usually) Suxasses on the PS3.

 

YES and also shows why the arc doesn't need to exist as people havn't even sussed out the sixaxis....

Strange logic there.

 

Not really. Most developers have not made the most of the sixaxis so rather than support developers in doing so introduce another motion device to further confuse developers when trying to make their decisions on control.

That's because there isn't anything really to suss out. Flower & Tools of Destruction made decent use of it, but it's not really a feature - its very limited.

 

In effect its a primitive extra analogue. How often would a game need to use it? Not very, which is why we haven't seen much of it.

 

Arc could actually do something cool.

What dwarf said.

Wii has a remote and a controller, worked fine for them. Regardless I'm not buying it, unless my mum wants it :P

 

But the Wii Remote is the primary controller. The Classic Controller was just an optional thing you could buy to make playing VC games more enjoyable. With the PS3, both the DualShock 3/Sixaxis and the Wand, or Arch, or whatever they're calling it, will both be primary input methods, assuming the wand takes off.

Thank you.

 

So I'm half-looking forward to XIII...

 

But only half.

 

The last FF I played was VII, haha.

 

Have a missed... much?

 

In terms of gameplay that is.

Probably not, though my opinion on this isn't that qualified as I missed XII, which was probably the most innovative if you like that the series had done up to this point.

 

The previous ones in the Sony era were all basically the same, bar different characters and magic systems.

yet another reason it is stupid...as you are splittering their market! Although I do primaryly think with both Arc and Natal we will see a more casual focus.

Especially if you look at the way Resi 5 is going to control with it. I mean, since nobody has an arch yet, just try holding the Dualshock 3 in one hand, and a Wii remote in the other, and press all the buttons on the left side of the dualshock. It just doesn't work that well.

 

Really, Motion/Pointer controls work well with some games. If a shooter is designed to use it, it can be good, something like Zack and Wiki was really good with the Wii remote. The problem really rises when developers try to force the use of it. There are so many Wii games that would have been better with certain actions mapped to buttons. Good examples being New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Animal Crossing, some aspects of Red Steel (and by the looks of things Red Steel 2).

 

BTW, those two points are separate, Resi 4 was great on the Wii. Resi 5 has different problems.

Seems strange the the Beeb published that much information on it.

 

Will that mean he'll try and get an insane trophy level? Probably wouldn't be any point in that but I wonder what sort of shit he could pull.

Speaking of Trophies I have a question about them, before I even go on I just want to say I'm not going to do this I was just thinking if it was possible the other night.

 

You know If you go round to your mates who has, lets say for example a Trophy Level of 10. Could you log out of his PSN, log in to yours then sync Trophies? Cause the way I see it is that all of his would sync to yours and visa versa. As when you sign out of PSN you can still view your Trophies as there stored on the profile.

 

Confusing, yes. I was just wondering if it was possible and if so why loads of people don't do it?

but when you logged into your psn wouldn't it just come up with your trophies when you last synced them from your own console?!
