Hero-of-Time Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Nice boxart for Ratchet, I approve Heres what David Jaffe thinks of Flower, apparently this quote is from his blog. "Got a great demo of That Game Company's newest game FLOWER when I was in Santa Monica last week. Holy Shit! Now I had played the first level before and really liked it. I had liked it alot more than flOw which- as I always say- I APPRECIATED but never really enjoyed as a game experience. But this new game? Shit, man. It's on the road to being a classic, no doubt. And I don't say that lightly cause while the core game mechanics are fun, it- in my mind- lives or dies by the emotions it creates while you play. And you guys know I'm a disappointed cynic when it comes to video games evoking subtle emotions in players. But I'll tell you what- from what I saw on Friday- these guys/gals at TGC are well on their way to having made one of the most emotional games of all time. I love what I saw. And if the whole game feels like the stuff I saw last week...well wow! Just wow! And the coolest thing to me is, hell, now I'm inspired to step up to the plate and try to do something a bit more meaningful as well. Maybe not with our current title, but one day soon. Thanks TGC!"
flameboy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 love the sound of flower...seems to better flesh out the ideas they had going with flow...

flameboy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 really looking forward to playing Bioshock...never played it and don't know anything about the plot so should be fun...if I can fit it in amongest the rest...
triforce_keeper Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 HELPP Just bought R+C and it's saying I have insufficiant space. It only needs 419mb and I have 24gb :/ eh...
Guest Jordan Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/49587 That should solve it.
triforce_keeper Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/49587 That should solve it. Thanks Jordan, will give it a try
Gizmo Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 really looking forward to playing Bioshock...never played it and don't know anything about the plot so should be fun...if I can fit it in amongest the rest... You mean if you can fit the rest in amongst Bioshock.
Aimless Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Here's some Killzone 2 multiplayer footage for anyone that might be interested. It looks... well, like a class-based online FPS. Which it is.
triforce_keeper Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Worked great Jordan Off to play some Ratchet ^_^
dwarf Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I played Bioshock at my cousins house, I thought it was quite good, has an element of horror, but I found it a bit too strange. I wanted some sort of interaction with other people but from what I played you just kill a load of freaks. The puzzles weren't great, but the graphics were good.
flameboy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 You mean if you can fit the rest in amongst Bioshock. Its really a case of fitting everything in with each other...october is one cramped month to be a PS3 owner. I have preordered; Fallout 3 Little Big Planet Bioshock FIFA 09 I'm sure I will buy other titles as well... Considering how much time Fallout 3 and LBP are going to eat up...madness....
dwarf Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Oh and can anyone recommend me a good but cheap HD T.V or one that makes the PS3 graphics stand out more? My box T.V still looks cool and everything but I want to experience the good stuff. It's about 20/21 ". Anything the same size or slightly bigger would be nice. I know nothing about these T.Vs but appearance-wise the Samsungs rate high for me. Back to Uncharted: If you have a PS3 and you don't own or haven't borrowed the game you must do at some point. Now isn't a bad idea seeing I got it for £14. Answers???

That Guy Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Well I have this samsung; http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/3435709/Samsung-19-LE19R-86BDX-Freeview-HD-Ready-LCD-TV/Product.html and things look great on it...wanted a bigger one but couldn't cos of space restrictions...will do once I get a place of my own though! Looks sweet. I love the Samsung TV's. The only problem mine has is the HDMI socket is a bit loose. Not sure how I'd resolve it though.

Hero-of-Time Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 For Singstar fans soon there will be functionality that lets you play tracks from SingStar PS2 discs on PS3. Also Singstar Disney edition, awesome! Im being serious, its out in autumn.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I know right Singstar disney? GET! Indeed. I wanna sing me some Disney classics. Heavy Rain is being shown now.
Guest Jordan Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Basically, just an updated version of the PSP Better screen, rounder edges, built in mic... I bet that "brighter screen" will just mean you can use the highest brightness setting by default rather than having to plug it into the mains.
