Minna no Golf 6 returns to PS3
- Thread starter duckroll
- Start date
You're getting crazy. Go cool off and stop derailing the thread with your insanity. Just a heads up.
doesn't this mean that there will be more online players for Vita owners?
I'm sure this also means that whoever buys this PS3 version will get the Vita version for free. And if they don't have a Vita..well there might still be a bundle waiting for them, IF they huge fans of the series..but weren't into mobile gaming.
whew...kinda dizzy here from all that spinning.

I mean, you don't have to agree with my position, but I do believe it doesn't instill confidence on the platform.
I'm definately hatin' though

On the other hand, there is no reason for anyone wanting to take the leap on a Vita for Sony titles to think they won't just be on PS3, as well.

Hence the emerging "will wait to play this on my PS3" meme.

Exactly. Which company wouldn't want more sales?
All Vita has at this point are Sony titles.

At least in this case people had to wait.
The simultaneous Sound Shapes release blew my mind a little. Especially when it became obvious the servers were absolutely not ready to handle the addition of the PS3 userbase.

AC3: Liberation may be the best upcoming Vita game. In some ways it seems like they're putting even more of an effort into it than the console versions. Those are safe to some of the things that they're doing with the Liberation. The persona system is especially cool.
Yea me neither - PS3 version IQ was as bad as any of the PS2 (or PSP) games - Vita one at least had AA. But I can't help but hold out hope that they would be doing improvements and trickle them back into a Vita hi-res patch. It's painful watching the Opening Video in the game rendered in VitaNative res seeing how the game "could" have looked like...mrklaw said:
Do cross-play titles have shared trophies?
Cross-buy might help there - and besides this is a common issue with console->PC ports and that only ever hurt the PC side, even though it's the "superior" platform.shockingalberto said:

YES, I LOVE HSG!
Why did anyone spin this into bad news. I'd love for every vita game to make it over in some form.

Ascension should have been vita exclusive I think.
Being a spin-off and not IV there doesn't seem to be alot of excitement around it... I think it would have been a better fit for vita than ps3 and there would be more hype for it.

They still would have ported it.

Now that I know they will start doing this I'll just wait for the PS3 versions.
The Vita version isn't being handled by the main team and handed off to a B team instead. Also, has it been confirmed that the Vita version has multiplayer? It UbiSoft was putting more effort into AC:L it would be handled by the main team.
Look at Hot Shots, done by the main team. Full effort given to it.

Portability. The only true advantage Vita has over an HD game.
P4G is one of the best JRPGs of all time.
AC doesn't fit any standard definition of "team" (several hundred people working in multiple different studios) - in fact HSG team probably has more in common with AC:L then the other way around (and in terms of budget too).OldJadedGamer said:
And budget is the real differentiator of "B" and "A" teams as perceived on internet anyway.
Yeah the problem is they do not really have enough medium difficulty courses.
It goes from easy to really hard in one course.
Would not surprise me if they held back courses to sell as DLC. They could have at least gave us some of the PS3 courses.
Developers cheap skating on content is really starting to piss me off.
The second PSP game is still the best handheld version of everybody's golf.
Not true, especially with Gravity Rush. GR is probably the only game I've ever played that uses touch screen controls and gyroscope to actually enhance the gameplay. I can't picture it being as good on PS3. Even the comic-style cutscenes all turn with the gyroscope to enhance the art style. Also the Vita screen will look better than a lot of people's TVs.
As far as Hot Shots, I can't see how this is a negative. They basically said that if you have it on Vita, you get a PS3 version for free now and people complain? The entire cross buy program is radically forward thinking. It's the kind of thing you would expect from Valve, but here it's Sony leading the charge.
The obvious bonus in having a PS3 and a Vita is that you get two games for the price of 1 on a large number of Sony exclusives, and potentially even some third party stuff. If this actually took off, it would be a huge reason to buy multi-plat games on PS3 instead. I think it's literally one of the best ideas Sony has ever had, and it can only help the Vita.

I own a Vita and PS3 but haven't paid much attention to my Vita. I like Hot Shots and I'm glad it's getting a PS3 entry, now more of my friends can enjoy it.

In that sense, it is no surprise indeed. It isnt that unusual that games that preform poorly gets ported later on, trying to get more sales. But i dont think anyone saw this coming.
Just curious, do you own a Vita?
Why is it often assumed that less effort is being put into a game because it is done by another team? Did people say that Batman Arkham Asylum was being developed by a B team because Rocksteady Games had only made one game earlier, which wasnt really reviewed very high?
The main team is already working on AC3. If they should make two games, it would mean less effort in both games, at least if they're working on the same timetable. Otherwise they would have to expand the team, but that is basically the same as hiring another developer instead.
Yep, multiplayer is confirmed. Not sure if online multiplayer is confirmed, but multiplayer is confirmed at least.

Sony should released the Uncharted Vita game on the PS3 this holiday season. It would instantly become their biggest holiday title.
Most spinoffs have a smaller dev-budget, smaller marketting budget, and respectively lower review scores and/or game quality. On internet that's perceived as reduced effort by the parent company of course.test_account said:
I don't think it's particularly fair to equate that to team expertise and/or talent though.

That makes sense, i can see why there might be some doubts because of the reasons you mention there. But often (generally speaking, not saying it is the case here) it seems to be more directed towards that the game automatically will be bad/not-so-good because it isnt done by the main team.

Hey there ;_;
All I know is that bigger online community = better. Besides, I've always loved playing HSG in HD.

This topic got fairly interesting.
Anyway, I will say Takao may be right to be alarmed, but really, who didn't see this coming?

It makes sense now that it has been announced, but i dont think anyone saw it coming. Just look at the first page in this thread, several of comments shows that people didnt expect this to happen. Personally i dont think i ever saw a prediction for that Minna no Golf 6 would be ported to PS3.
EDIT: Unless you ment that "who didnt see this coming" referring to that Takao would be alarmed hehe
I don't even need the games to be identical. Eg they could do it for pS4 games, but just sharing the net code, and using reduced assets on vita.
I guess the risk is resource drain. I don't want Sony to be distracted from PS4 by trying to scrape by on vita.
I should be doing hw

Jesus, Takao would make for an entertaining high school psychology project. "And the fifth stage is acceptance..."
Oh god yes please do this
PSVita with a very similar strategy to PSP. What could possibly go wrong?
Ports aren´t a bad thing but a lot of people buy a new system for new experiences and different games. PSVitas lineup already was full of ports and now it´s also losing one of their few exclusive titles. Do they really intend to sell this system on portability alone?
This is just a greedy and cheap move imo, brainlessly only going after the short term profit.
