PS3 Fanboy

One thing I think Sony did not realize with the PS3 is the increased dev times. If Insomniac didn't use its full dev time for Resistance it wouldn't have been a launch title.

omg! this was supposed to be a launch title? a little late for that, eh? i'll still buy it.

and to #1: Insomniac is for Resistance and Ratchet/Clank, not Heavenly Sword. Ninja Theory did HS.

who cares when this is released, its just an overhyped turd. the ps3 doesnt just need games, it needs GOOD games, so crap like this shouldnt be rushed out, if time can salvage it, let it have the time.

This announcment is just for Europe isn't it?

The North American release date was always a solid Sep. 4th was it not? I remember, cuz it was supposed to be out a day before my birthday =(.

It was only the Euro and Japan release dates that wavered.

Is it me, or are the xbox360 fanboys making Microsoft appear to be unethical and immoral by association? It's unfortunate that Microsoft seem to attract people you'd normally call hicks, trailer trash, or Jerry Springer crowds (that are bad tempered and mean) if they want to keep the respectable and proud image that I once had for them as a corporation as a whole. Their customers in their gaming department has eroded that image pretty much permanently now.

I wasn't into this console war thing, but looking at the xbox360 fanboy behaviors, I now know that I'll never buy an xbox360 ever because I will never join that group.

I hope natural selection takes over for the better for human beings and weed out mean people over time in the course of humanity. Stop them from mating and reproducing. Let them die out. Over time, we won't need to lock our doors anymore. We won't need prisons. We won't need to prottect our children from abuse or hurt. XBOX360 fanboys will be genetically extinct and washed off from the human race. Undesirable traits should not pass to the next generation if this world is logical.

I know Heavenly Sword is made by Team Ninja. I used Resistance to illustrate a point.

I think as time goes on we will see more loose release dates like Q1 2008 due to delays.

@4 same thing i said about halo3 when i saw the preview i thought this is a joke!!! i meen seeying that first cg trailer and talk of that actually being ingame i was like AWSOME!!!( i sound like im 12)they should delay this game, up the visuals even higher. MS and fanboys alike claim the 360 to have better graphics but with a headline game(the one thats supposed to break records) like this the last installment and you dont push the that white box to the edge or whats left of it im am kind of let down, there really hoping that GoW war steals H3s thunder. FPS are supposed to have top of the line graphics and halo allow thoug ok at the moment could do better. as for HS i dont see how you call this game over hyped. i dont see anybody boasting how much better this games is than anything. your another xboxfanboy who shoots anything sony related. the devs arent claiming anything really. if its hyped its because theres finally another game coming out for the ps3 and its the begining of a long chain of great games to come smashing your wallet right after another.

Those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones...

Plenty of fanboy turds on both sides of this fence. Although I suppose it only becomes evident when you own all the systems. Actually, the Big N fans seem to be the most mature, and troll the least.

Based off the demo, I'd say there's no rush. Regardless of what reviewers have said...it feels like God of War with no jump button. And I must say...having to shake the controller for a combo is completely asanine. Stick with Ninja Gaiden Sigma.

Lot's of 360 antifans, that's for sure. When the PS3 show's off it's over-hyped potential, then there will be room for argument, right? Right now the PS3 is stuck with lackluster games, unnatural motion controls, and a completely non-friendly user interface. The updates are helping, but we still need games.

You don't have to use the motion controls at all in Heavenly Sword. Go back into the demo and go to options. You can change it so you use the X button to initiate aerial combos. Smack someone in ranged stance with Triangle, follow up with X to knock 'em in the air and wail away with an aerial combo.

Same with the aftertouch, you can change that so it's controlled with the left analog stick.

Oh, and don't go by the demo when it comes to progress on the game - that's the same demo that was being played by the gaming press since May of this year, only less of it.

The problem is there's always a very vocal minority that gives fans of a particular console a bad reputation. I gave up on XBox Live due to the childish behaviour of some of the people I encountered. But this could happen in any situation.

If Sony want to really revolutionize console online gaming they need to release software to run dedicated servers from a PC and allow people/clans to moderate their own servers.This is one of the reasons I'm so fond of PC gaming.

I really liked using the controller to initiate the air combo. I found it easier then going from Triangle to X, since I can just hit Triangle as I use the motion control.

I had a lot of fun with the demo, so I can't wait to get the final game and see what it's like.

Reply

I liked doing it for the aftertouch, but I couldn't consistently pull off the aerial combo. Do you just jerk the controller? Or do you have to shake it?

@ KeViL, hopefully Epic shows a good example with UT3 =).

And I think that PS3killed360 kid got killed by a 360 lol. He went nuts.

And really, all consoles have the fanboyturds, just look at the comments from sites like GameTrailers.com - they come from all three sides. lol

@7: Team Ninja and Ninja Theory aren’t the same studios either.

Actually you don't shake the controller to get the air combos, you lift it up. It makes perfect sense if you think about it that way, because you're jerking the controller up like the character is doing with the swords on chains. I don't want it to turn into some Wii-tard fest where you're slinging your arms back and forth across the room smashing flower vases, but a little touch here and there is cool.
