The NZA Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 we're talking about Tim here. he has to find it first, then the other bits that make it work, such as cords/etc. between him and shipping from taiwain, im not sure which (if either) will arrive first.

The NZA Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 you know...this gen's been showing us how rising production costs means exclusives (unless you paid for a part of them to be made) = dead. i didnt know it applied to DLC now too, but that was the big one, however delayed. it's all fair game now, folks.

The NZA Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Chrono Trigger on PSX was not nearly as bad as loading times could get. Orange Box PS3, Valkyria Chronicles uninstalled...none of them compared. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the PS3 is the only console getting Last Guardian, which is a total bummer, I want to play it as soon as it comes out, but I'll have to get a PS3 for it. Wasn't planning on spending that much on a game, but I'll be able to play Little Big Planet as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 yeah, Team ICO's kinda exclusive to them. at least the system's a lot cheaper these days - there nothing else that caught your eye to justify it, though?

Iambaytor Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Heavy Rain is looking pretty interesting, for one. Â I'm sure it will involve Aztecs, demons, John Tesh, and a secret society of spinsters that are actually wizards. Also they are all aliens!

Newtype Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 At the moment, Australia's classification laws are stuck in the stone age. There's support for changes from gamers, of course, but hardcore gamers don't have much in the way of political clout. Multinational companies, however, do. EB Games Australia announced today that it's throwing its weight behind the push for an R18+ classification (ie adults only rating ) for video games in Australia.  Every single store in the country will now be carrying promotional material for the campaign, as well as asking consumers to sign a petition aimed at lobbying the government for changes.  "With the release of the Government's discussion paper, we knew as a company that we needed to act on this issue as it continues to cripple our industry and cost local jobs", EB Games Australia's Managing Director Steve Wilson says. "We did however want to be sure that our customers were as passionate about the matter as we are."  That's exactly the kind of high-profile lobbying that's needed to get the political freight train moving. Complaining about gore and drugs won't win over out-of-touch politicians. But mention local jobs under threat and you'll get their attention. Even if the jobs ultimately report to an American company... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I totally forgot those were exclusives. Glad you guys get to check them out, they're both awesome. Higher production value than most full retail games. Â I got around to playing X-Men Origins: Wolverine and I'm going to make a statement. I'm going to savor this, because it is exceptionally rare that I ever get to say it honestly. Ready?

The NZA Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 yessssssssssssssssss ps we need a grasshopper studios thread, even if its just me there  Silent Hill's Akira Yamaoka Finds New Home At Grasshopper Manufacture   Akira Yamoaka, famous for his musical and directorial contributions to Silent Hill, recently ended his longtime employment at Konami. That publisher's loss is quirky developer Grasshopper Manufacture's gain, as Yamaoka has signed on with Goichi Suda's studio, according to Famitsu. According to 1UP's account of Famitsu's interview with Suda and Yamaoka, the musician will be put to work on the horror game Grasshopper is developing for Electronic Arts, the one headed by Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami. (Mikami also has another game in the works, Vanquish for Platinum Games/Sega.)  Yamaoka also indicates that, while his current tasks involve helping Grasshopper on the musical side, he would like to use all of his game production talents at some point. We'd also like that, thank you very much.  Silent Hill Director Joins Grasshopper Manufacture [1UP]  none of suda's horror games make it over here. after his last idea for the wii vitality senor - "make a horror level where players cant escape unless their heart rate is calm enough" etc - i just cant wait to see what comes of this pair. i wanna say he was talking about a project with Mikami (RE director).
