Goes to delete Opus from his PSN friends list!

I'm on the machine every night Opus, Resistance clan with Warhawk mixed in, still race all the time with the Japanese guys in RR7. I've played Uncharted 3 times, plus I play Call of Duty 4 allot. Plus I've played Heavenly Sword & Ratchet & Clank, still trying to beat my top score in SSHD & EDS! And soon UT3!

Owning a PS3 through 07 and selling it before 08 is like selling a DS in 05 just before it took off
 
Yeah the best aspect of it will be having a NeoGaf clan clubhouse for say.....Resistance 2.

Who's gonna MC that party?

No I'm serious...I must have missed something.

Well I don't want to derail the discussion but I'll throw out a few titles. For end of 2007 PS3 is getting UT III (eventually coming to 360). Next year we'll be getting Silent Hill 5, Killzone 2, LittleBigPlanet, Haze (most likely coming to 360), Home (not really a game, more of a service), Resistance 2 (most likely next holiday season), Dynasty Warriors 6, Infamous, Socom: Confrontation, Wardevil, White Knight Chronicles, and possibly Rockstar's exclusive project for PS3. This isn't a complete list at all and some of these may be moved back to 2009, but this is just what I came up with off the top of my head.

You have an Xbox 360 right? I just always find myself reaching for the same controller every night.

The money I can get for this now is very tempting, if need be I can buy it again at the end of 2008.

Everyone always forgets Tekken 6! Also Hard Rain.

You're selling it just as the really great software is about to come out. 2008 is going to be great for PS3 and your just going to regret selling it.
 
Firewire said:

Edit: Beaten. :lol And yeah I forgot those, I didn't mention everything, just some key titles. Obviously Tekken 6 is a pretty big exclusive, as the "Heavy Rain" game may be. Very interesting looking nonetheless.

Dante said:
The real mystery is Team Ico though.

Agreed. I thought about putting that in my list, but God knows when they'll be done with their game. Sooner rather than later, I hope, but there's so little news on it I just didn't feel like I should include it. Regardless, I will be picking up whatever they put out next on day one. :D

No :( I went through 4 360's & when MS accused me of breaking the last one I had enough. I'll get one again when the RROD thing is confirmed fixed.

Perhaps, but £450 around this time of year is tough to ignore.

OK that's being helpful (I'm glaring at you Bishop!!!) but except for LBP and possibly White Knight and Resistance 2 I'm afraid none of those are interesting to me. I've never been a big Silent Hill or Socom fan and I loathe Dynaty Warriors. Couldn't stand the first Killzone so I'm not really interested in the sequel... What is Infamous? I haven't heard of that one.

EDIT: And Tekken is out (I don't like tournament fighters).
 
Dante said:
Heavy Rain, but I think that was a working title. The real mystery is Team Ico though.


Shit I actually did but Hard! :lol

Maybe because the game graphics actually makes me hard O.0
 
Opus Angelorum said:

Yeah, it was dead on arrival, but they insisted it couldn't be & accused me of breaking it somehow!

Still have Gears (never opened) just waiting for the day when I can actually play it.

There supposed to be around 6-8 jrpg's coming out next year. We don't even know anything about them.

Exactly they have been on a similar holiday season Media blackout like last year, I'm guess MS is doing the same thing which is why we haven't heard much on 08 and beyond.

It sucks. Hopefully there will be a Gamers day early next year. Also I'm wonedring if Ninja theory is doing a HS sequel.

Edit:
I'm too slow to keep up with Firewire.... :lol
I'm not a Dynasty Warriors fan either, but I know that it is a big seller (in Japan). Figured I'd include it in my list for the heck of it. Infamous is the the new title from Sucker Punch. Not too much is known about it other than that it's an open world and that it looks like your character has super powers, but it looks really dark. IGN has the E3 trailer for it here.

Feel free to continue this with me via PM, I'd hate to derail this discussion about Home any more than it already is. :D

Actually Sony stated that there are 12-15 jrpg's in various stages of development. Most expect 6-8 in '08. I wish they would release some damn details though.

They stated it at the end of '06. And I think it was somewhat mentioned when Kaz talked about the 280 games by March '08. Sony doesn't talk about it though, no info on what dev's are making them or anything.

About 6 or so months ago, someone posted a list of rumored titles in some thread, that are supposed to make up these jrpg's. Can't remember if he got them from a magazine or something.

It's cool that its free, but I prefer a much more streamlined interface for playing games online, XBL does the trick for me fine as of now.

Which is why those features will also be availble via the XMB as necessary.

There does seem to be some confusion here. I haven't seen the latest EGM, but we have announced Dragon Age is a PC exclusive title. I 'm not sure where they are getting the idea there is a PS3 version.

I know recently, at the DICE conference, Ray was interviewed and mentioned that we're are working with the PS3. This part is true cuz as a company we are always looking at future possibilities or for new game ideas. I imagine many companies have PS3s, 360s and such on hand to investigate the possibility of developing games for them. BUt this wasn't Ray saying "DA is a PS# exclusive" or anything. It was just him saying we are investigating things (which we are).

Maybe it's that comment that lead someone to make that assumption. And you know what happens when you make assumptions. You get umption all over yourself.
We don't have a PS3 game yet, but maybe someday. It's more a research tool so we can see if it is worth our time/effort to develop something for them. Could we have a PS3 game in the future? I hope so. If you'd asked me 1 year ago would we ever make a hand held game, I would have said no, but we are now. Personally, I want all of our games to come out on PC and multiple consoles because: A) then more people can play our excellent games and b) we'd make more money, and I'm greedy.
I believe Chris has already said, in this very thread, that "we have announced Dragon Age is a PC exclusive title."

Never heard of Infamous, but that trailer looks interesting. What's the game about?


Sandbox game. You can decide to evolve into a hero or villain. Kinda like Fable, but fun.

Hey, I kinda liked Fable! But that's cool, some of the stuff looked like Crackdown(crazy stuff) and AC (climbing stuff) fused into one. Very weird that I've never heard of this.

It's an SP game and not an MMO, right?

Yeah, sounds like a SP game.
 
Dante said:
Not surprised, but why did I think it was on PS3, I though I read that on this board actually.

I think its been "hinted" on various 1up podcasts/quartermann/blogs/etc.

BTW: I thought this thread was about HOME...

Can we please not play "Listwars 2008 Console Line-up" with games that don't have dates, let alone names.. Seriously. If the NCSoft games don't have a screen (or, I don't know, A NAME), they're not comming out in 2008. It's really that simple.

Crusade said:
See this Phil? (I know you're reading) 82% will be in it constantly, that's a good enough figure to make it the default launching app :D

Asking people who visit a Home blog if they are going to use Home or not is akin to going to the Republican National Convention and asking which party those people are voting for. Either case, the results are going to be incredibly biased and thus worthless for actual statistical interpretation. Unless the question is "Do people who find Home interesting want to use Home?"

That was my problem. People kept saying "PS3 08 will rock!" but the majority of the titles I knew about were TBA or wouldn't be released in 08.
 
Jive Turkey said:
Wow...OK Infamous looks good. Is this confirmed 08?

Yes, it does look good. They don't have a date announced yet, they've just said it's for 2008, like Killzone 2 is for 2008. I think both will be either summer or holiday season of next year.

NCSoft said they plan to release the first game of their deal with Sony sometime in '08. Good enough for me!

Guess you don't like looking at the lists of upcoming PS3 games.

Which is why I stated them as being wildcards, ie stuff we really don't know anything about. ( talking bout my list )

Anyways back to Home :)

Any Credance to Shane's Open Beta for all PSN users this year?

Corrected list.
 
Can we go back to discussing home?

What do I have to do to get into someone's appartment? Do I have to do a short download?

Are the video trailers in the Theatre streamed? Is it going to take a lot of bandwidth? I'm worried about my bandwidth...

You're talking to someone getting a PS3 next year.

I'm not naive enough to play Listwars to begin with, let alone with games obviously not coming out in 2008.

Little MMORPG hint: MMO's take a shitton of time to make. World of Warcraft was first discussed in 2000/2001, came out late 2004. Vanguard was talked about 2004/2005, and came out early 2007. NCSoft isn't putting out an MMO on PS3 in 2008. Even if they say they are.
