dwarf Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Burn Zombie Burn looks fairly similar, but I just saw a vid of it and it wasn't the one I meant. I've played a demo of the one I'm referring to. Can't be arsed to look it up.
Aimless Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Zombie Apocalypse from Konami. I don't need to look it up on account of an apparent eidetic memory for useless game information.
dwarf Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 I share that with you it seems because I was thinking of Zombie Apocalyse, but after a Google I saw it was a film so it put me off my quest to find the comparison video. Here it is:
Cookyman Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Zombie apocalypse was crapola - tried the demo and it sucked. PSN s back up but store is buggered so no Joe Danger tonight! :nono:
Cube Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 http://play.tm/news/30555/3d-hits-playstation-3-tomorrow/ Wipeout HD, PAIN and Super Stardust HD will be updated with 3D tomorrow. There will also be a demo of MotorStorm: Pacific Rift in 3D.
Dante Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 Sony's Piracy List. CESA, short for Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association, has been tracking illegal downloads of top selling handheld games. Out of all the titles – DS and PSP – Dissidia: Final Fantasy was downloaded the most. According to their data, the PSP game was downloaded 5,281,223 times. CESA estimates a loss of 30,631,093,400 yen ($335 million) in sales. The dollar amount is questionable due to used game sales, price drops, and people who would never have purchased Dissidia anyway. In spite of those factors that number is still staggering. These are some of the other top pirated PSP games developed in Japan. Phantasy Star Portable 2 – 4,665,510 downloads worth 22,394 million yen ($245 million) Dynasty Warriors Strikeforce – 2,072,942 downloads worth 9,950 million yen ($109 million) Monster Hunter Freedom Unite – 1,820,282 downloads worth 8,322 million yen ($91 million) Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII – 1,223,881 downloads worth 7,098 million yen ($77 million) Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam vs. Gundam Next Plus – 1,1187,341 downloads worth 7,100 million yen ($77 million) Tales of the World Radiant Mythology 2 – 1,131,319 downloads worth 5,603 million yen ($61 million) Not all top selling PSP games were heavily pirated. Konami’s Power Pros Portable 3 is the 12th best selling game and it was only downloaded 4,358 times. SD Gundam G Generation Portable, the 20th title in Japan, also had a comparatively low piracy rate with only 65,112 downloads. It appears PSP piracy increased greatly when you compare Phantasy Star Portable and Phantasy Star Portable 2. Phantasy Star Portable, released in 2008, only has 665,320 downloads, a fraction of the 4.6 million downloads of the 2009 sequel. CESA’s figures the top 20 selling games in Japan were downloaded 23,249,418 and cost the industry 118 billion in damages.
Daft Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 So this is what I've heard. The dev kits for the next PSP have already been sent out and development is under way. Obviously it is a crap load more powerful. Not sure if it will have two analogue sticks or not but it will have a touch screen. It will also have another touch surface, most likely the whole back of the unit (which I like to call the tickle pad ). Also, Heavy Rain has had Move patched into it and apparently makes the game much more immersive.

Aimless Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Also, Heavy Rain has had Move patched into it and apparently makes the game much more immersive. Say "Jason" to Jason? I don't really understand your positioning of the 'tickle pad', it doesn't sound very practical. I'd be more understanding of mini touch pads being used in place of analogue sticks, but that would lack the tactility required for, say, a 3D shooter; the current nub isn't great, but at least it's something physical.
Daft Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 Honestly, I'm not too clear on the details. What I was told exactly was that there was another touch sensitive surface other than the screen. I think a touch sensitive backing makes sense. Although not as a replacement for the nub, more as a new kind of input.
Aimless Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 Ah, got you. Perhaps it could be something akin to a laptop's touchpad? So for arguments sake say the overall design was similar to the Go, a touch sensitive surface could be located between the physical buttons. That might seem a bit superfluous, but sometimes directly touching a screen to interact with it isn't always wanted; if you were using your finger to move a reticule, for instance, you'd obfuscate a lot of the screen. On the other hand, having a touch sensitive screen would be preferable when using the machine as a media device or playing simpler, iPhone-esque games in the closed position. I can see where you're coming from with the back of the device being touch sensitive, but personally I don't see that many uses for such a feature. Given that it's a handheld you'd need to maintain a decent grip on it which limits the movement of your fingers, for instance. Actually, I've just thought of something: this. Sony's clip-on keypad for the PS3 has touch sensitive buttons, allowing you to use the surface area of the keys like a touchpad. So, perhaps they'd do something similar with a handheld if it was just an ancillary input device.
Daft Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 I guess we'll see soon (I'm pretty sure this is true but obviously I haven't seen it with my own eyes so it's not a confirmation). It's always hard to picture how these things could be implemented without knowing what it is exactly and without demos.
Daft Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 X-Men Origins: Wolverine - ONLY £9.95!!! This game is super amazing.
Jon Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 So I'm super excited for Sony's E3. Me too. I seem to remember last year being quite good for them and after watching MS, it can't be that hard to top. Just seen the trailer for DC Universe Online. I think my inner fanboy just creamed himself repeatedly. I want now.
Retro_Link Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 All Sony need to do is show me a new decent controller.
dwarf Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) 8.00pm I think, I used this link for the Nintendo Conference, on the whole it worked fine, and it should update with Sony's one in 1h 10 minutes or so. http://www.youtube.com/E3 Edited June 15, 2010 by dwarf

The Lillster Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Cross-game chat confirmed for PS3, Coming this month Sadly, it does appear you'll need to have Playstation Plus to use this feature and it won't be open to all gamers. To get PlayStationPlus, it'll cost you a $50 for the service. You forgot this one important little detail.
Daft Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 You forgot this one important little detail. Apparently it hasn't been decided yet. Also, apparently it isn't in the upcoming update.
