    Oh right. I am blind today. Considering those guys make nothing but PS3/PSP/PSV games though they might as well be first party.

    That PS3 exclusives list picture is missing some major titles like Ni no Kuni and a tonnnnnn of other Japanese exclusives.

    Remember Me

    I think if it was 20+ hours, even padded, I'd have picked it up right off. I buy mid-score games all the time as long as they've got a decent amount of content. A super linear straight 8 hours that isn't a A++ experience is pretty off putting though. Maybe I'll pick it up on Amazon when it drops...

    Remember Me

    Well, from the sounds of it, they didn'treallytake any gameplay risks. Reports are that it's mostly filled with dull/boring Action-Game combat that doesn't really work out and that the really cool stuff that they show cased initially is rare (when it should be the main focus of the game). If...

    Remember Me

    GT review out, 6.8:http://www.gametrailers.com/reviews/...mber-me-review Sounds fairly short, 8 hours long. They didn't mention anything about extras or collectible stuff either. Bad dialogue, a dull and troubled combat system, and the cool parts with the Memory stuff are few and far between.

    That page doesn't go into Sony's custom bus design or any of the stuff that Cerny has let out at all. They're just going off raw numbers. There's more to it than just hardware too. There's been a few remarks on how the PS4 is easier to work on and that they have much more access to the...

    Piecing together a speaker system

    If your TV has an audio out, yeah (they usually do). You'll only be able to do some very basic audio formats though: 2 Channel PCM, DD 5.1, DTS 5.1. No HD audio or mutli-channel PCM.

    Piecing together a speaker system

    Polk is a good brand, but that old receiver is pretty much worthless for a modern setup. About the only thing you could do is maybe run an Optical/RCA cable to it from the TV for audio, if it has an Optical/RCA port. Onkyo receivers are pretty good and easy to use, someone else might have a...

    Microsoft charges you $40,000 to patch and you have to go through a ton of cert shit, regardless of who you are. Even publishing a game on there is a bitch though, you have to be "slotted in" for a release date for XBLA titles (which can be a massive pain) and Indie devs aren't allowed to self...

    Piecing together a speaker system

    Finally ordered the Center Speaker. Got it for $82.42 (67.99 + 14.43 shipping) from Tigerdirect, which is about 22 dollars cheaper than Amazon (96.99 + tax). That brings the total to $313.42. Pretty awesome price for all 5 speakers of that quality.

    This is probably just something that's more on an OS/System level that developers can just flip on rather than have to design into the game. It's just streaming video data to the PSV, it's not doing anything more complex than that and unlike the PS3 which required a software solution, the PS4...

    This is so wrong that it makes my brain hurt. FF9 had a fuckload of customization and has one of the better character advancement systems in Final Fantasy. Characters were also fairly unique combat-wise and had more differences between than than most characters do in most other FF games.

    I think $500 for a premium package is the absolute most that they could charge. It's going to be the PS3 launch all over again if anyone goes over that with any package. I'm hoping that the PS4 launches at a $399.99 price point.

    They are if you sell enough. The biggest problem is that people are spending too much money on making mediocre games or making games that they are unable to sell.

    I would be totally unhappy if they did, PS3/X360 games look like shit compared to PC games. Almost nothing renders at 1080p, most render at either 540p or 720p and they have awful levels of AA/AF. They have absolutely horrible textures and an uncountable list of bad shit. They are also mostly...
