S'okay.

Anyway it seems Nintendo would give many older concepts of the GCN/GBA connectivity another go, this time all the tech is right there. We know the obvious FPS radar and Madden secret playbooks are coming... But what else can be done? And what AAA franchise will Nintendo put to work on the thing?

I love the idea of built-in portable connectivity.

Speculations right now are that once the Portal 2 ARG is complete, we'll be getting news/hints/who knows about HL2:E3.

1. We designed the entire thing to be very, very durable. It was easy to get the materials since everyone's been thinking
it's a simple icebreaker ship. Ha.

2. We have made sure to strip it of anything not necessary, so that we have plenty of space for it. It doesn't have any
backup supplies in the event the crew runs out of food, though. And there isn't much food onboard in the first place.

3. In the event you need to send it off all of a sudden, use the OR box with code 'hb1'.

That's all, C.J. Not much else I can tell you other than this won't leave a blight on our record. Mesa is going to be sore
when they see what we've done.

So I'm guessing that by waiting this long for ep3 that they can and probably will make it a full $60 release.

I get the feeling they can justify charging $200+ for the damn thing because it will be the next Game Boy Portable on its own, and hey..if you go buy our new $300 console you'll be able to use it to control games on that too. And if you dont go run out and buy that controller than it will come with a standard controller minus the screen. That way, they can up the console specs since they wont have to package the "best" controller in.

I'm not even sure where this is coming from. Did Nintendo fund Democrats recently? I'm seriously asking.

Fucking fuck, man. You know they already have the next "Game Boy Portable", right? It's called the 3DS. It came out like 2 seconds ago. It'll probably have a connectivity feature with the next Nintendo console like the DS has with the Wii (though as far as I know it's only been used in like 3 games).

No one's going to pay $200 for a controller that isn't shaped like a guitar. Even then no one gives a shit about music games anymore, so there you have it.

200 bucks for a controller, lol I'm sure that sounded smart in Drofords head. The only way 200 bucks would be "justified" was if the thing gave you a blow job.

the damn thing probably will cost $200 if its got a 6 inch touchscreen on it..the fucking iPad costs $600 with a 9 inch screen.

If they're going to make the damn thing so expensive they might as well make it the next game boy while they're at it. People fucking pay $300 for phones to sit around and play angry birds on..

Plus the 3DS is a joke and its being outsold by the PSP in Japan. I dont think the 3DS is anything more than another .5 revision of the DS like the XL and Lite were. A damn 6 inch touchscreen system with controller capabilities for their new console would be awesome.

Yes it's because of the screen. Your reasoning is air tight.

Arc System Works confirms BlazBlue Continuum Shift 2 will be coming to the 3DS and PSP on May 31 with a special bonus for those who have the first game on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

The game was originally set to arrive May 24 but the studio realized it would be much wiser to push the release date as that is the same date as the new Dead or Alive game for the 3DS.

For PS3 and Xbox 360 owners of the first game, Arc has promised the game will be sort of given away as free DLC for the first game but with some changes and some stuff being separated as paid DLC.

Quote:
First off, we have the Continuum Shift II update that will be free of charge. This update will re-balance the entire roster to that of the arcade/handheld versions of Continuum Shift II, new challenge modes, new tutorials and it will fix some minor glitches and bugs.

There will also be another update but this one will come with a cost. This update comes in the form of a new character by the name of Platinum The Trinity (she's pictured above). This update will cost $7.99 or 560 MS points (I guess they're trying to make back some of the free CS II upgrade). This update will also include new achievements/Trophies for the character, as well as extend the story mode to include her plot line.
As of now the DLC update is expected to come around the same time as the 3DS and PSP game but it could be pushed back in order to let the handhelds generate some sales.

Update on the rumored Nintendo controller:

A source inside of Ubisoft is saying the current beta HD screen on the controller can show off 3D glasses-free stuff. Another source says the controller itself is much more accurate and stronger than the WiiMote Plus and PS Move. The screen does allow streaming from console to controller and could mimic how the Nintendo DS separates stuff with two screens.

EA, Activision, Ubisoft and other big studios have had the development kits as early as late 2010.

Consider this as a bonus piece of news that has a lot of importance on the next Xbox and Playstation system being as expensive or even more expensive than when the Xbox 360 and PS3 launched.

DICE and Crytek want both Microsoft and Sony to add a lot more PC power and features to the next consoles with Crytek wanting something around 8GB as the minimum. Epic Games wants somewhere around 2-4 GB for their new engine.

Ubisoft and THQ also want new consoles and potentially higher prices for games.

Plus the 3DS is a joke and its being outsold by the PSP in Japan. I dont think the 3DS is anything more than another .5 revision of the DS like the XL and Lite were. A damn 6 inch touchscreen system with controller capabilities for their new console would be awesome.
Droford... fucking hell. The iphone is a fucking miniature computer. It's $600 because it can do a lot of shit. Yeah, it plays Angry Birds, but it's also got 132576324578623578 apps that do everything from word processing to GPS to turning your living room lights off from 1000 miles away. Touchscreens cost next to nothing. It's not a factor. If you were arguing about the extra tech inside that they'd need, you might have a point. All the stuff mentioned in the quote below my little spiel here makes me think we're looking at $40 to $50 controllers. And that's fair. PS3 and 360 controllers cost that and they don't have screens at all.

EA, Activision, Ubisoft and other big studios have had the development kits as early as late 2010.
Sounds cool. It'll be cooler if they confirm it.

They can and that's what got THQ into so much trouble. Charging $60 (fucking $70 here in Canada) for a game that's not even good, let alone as good as titles like Halo: Reach, Red Dead Redemption or any other AAA title is ludicrous. Well, that and spending entirely too much money making Homefront as a Hail Mary effort and then botching it doesn't help either.

New games modes revealed for the upcoming Legend of Zelda 3DS game with Boss Challenge mode and a hint system mode being the recently revealed modes.

Boss Challenge mode is a series of boss fights done in a row similar to the Castlevania DS series but in this case the mode unlocks after a certain part of the game is finished instead of completely the whole game.

The hint system is expected to be something similar to Super Mario Galaxy 2 that gives hints on controls and for certain areas of the game. The hints are also in video form just like in Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Sony has not officially confirmed it but according to retailers and Sony's own stores, the PSP Go has been discontinued from production with no more shipments expected for the handheld.

Sony is expected to use the PSP to help bridge the NGP sales similar to the PS2 helping keep the Playstation brand in sales when the PS3 was released.

Moon Diver demo play:



It's made from the guy who did Strider and it goes up to 4plyr coop (drop-in, drop-out!). Long live 2D action design, oldschool with a fresh coat of paint (and some new tricks).

It drops soon-ish for 15$ (XBLA/PSN). Very cool.

Activision explains they are well aware of the potential of Call of Duty series falling into the same decline and trap as the Guitar Hero series. At the same time, the studio has said they learned a lot from their mistakes with the GH series and spin-offs.

Activision feels the major difference involves the slower rise and growing fanbase in shooters compared to the sudden rush in populaity with the music genre with an unstable fanbase. They also realized unlike with Guitar Hero, CoD doesn't require $100+ instruments to be re-bought each game or need specific spin-offs to cater to the wide range of music fans.

Quote:
"If you really step back and dispassionately look at any measurement-sales, player engagement, hours of online play, performance of DLC-you can absolutely conclude that the potential for this franchise has never been greater," he said. "In order to achieve this potential, we need to focus: on making games that constantly raise the quality bar; on staying ahead of the innovation curve; on surrounding the brand with a suite of services and an online community that makes our fans never want to leave. Entertainment franchises with staying power are rare. But Call of Duty shows all of the signs of being able to be one of them. It's up to us."
This year Battlefield 3 will be the strongest challenger to the CoD series since 2008/2009 when Halo 3 was fighting off Call of Duty for #1 shooter.

PlayStation Network Down, Sony Says Service Could Be Out Up to Two Days

By Mike Sharkey | Apr 21, 2011 Hacker activist group Anonymous says it has nothing to do with outage.


What started as a sporadic outage last night has turned into a full-blown crash. Sony has confirmed PlayStation Network is down across the U.S. and Europe, and the company is currently investigating if the outage is being caused by an outside party.

Posting on the U.S. PlayStation Blog last night, Communications Director Patrick Seybold wrote that Sony was aware "certain functions" of PSN were down. Those certain functions are still down, and now the rest of the PlayStation 3's online network is as well.


"As you are no doubt aware, the current emergency outage is continuing this afternoon and all Sony Online Network services remain unavailable," Sony Computer Entertainment Europe PS blog manager James Gallagher posted today. "Our support teams are investigating the cause of the problem, including the possibility of targeted behavior by an outside party. If the reported Network problems are indeed caused by such acts, we would like to once again thank our customers who have borne the brunt of the attack through interrupted service."

Hacker activist group Anonymous appeared to pull back from its war on Sony after a protest it organized at Sony Stores around the world over the weekend fizzled. However, the group previously promised its biggest attack yet was still to come, and many immediately linked today's outage to Anon. However, writing on the Operation Sony Facebook page, Anonymous made it clear it is not behind the attack:

"ATTENTION: For everyone coming here complaining about the PSN or inquiring about it,

We Do Not Know What Happened

This is not the work of Anonymous."

Sony said its engineers are continuing to work to resolve the problems and updates will be provided throughout the day on PlayStation.com, the PlayStation blog, and the PlayStation twitter feed. Most recently, Seybold posted on the PlayStation blog at 12:30 p.m. EST that it "may be a full day or two before we're able to get the service completely back up and running."
