Gonna guess never since it's a Sony game.

BigDaddyCool 10-21-2010 11:24 AM

You can play sega games on nintedo, so it is possible one day.

Vietnamese Crippler 10-21-2010 11:27 AM

All that needs to happen is for Sony to go out of business.

EA continues in its attempt to counter people from buying the upcoming Call of Duty Black Ops by announcing Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam expansion pack will be priced at $15. EA believes this deal and the "free" Medal of Honor DLC should be enough to steal some sales away from CoD Black Ops.

The expansion pack comes with 4 multiplayer maps, patrol boats, Russian tanks, Hueys, 15 weapons, 10 Achievements/Trophies , and carries over stats earned in the main game to the expansion game.

No exact release date was announce but EA is planning for it to be released during the month of November.

Well with Sony Playstations becoming more over priced and God of War being their only game worth a damn...

Funky Fly 10-21-2010 08:21 PM

Granted, but Sega and Sony aren't exactly in the same league. Sony is an electronics giant with videogames being only one section of their massive portfolio. Sega made consoles and games, then they almost went bust and stuck to games in order to survive.

Yeah, except Uncharted is worth it, and Anything by Kojima will sell millions to fucktards.

On the other hand, lack of market viability will be a way to pull them from gaming. Sony dealt with phenomenal success with its first two generations. They took a serious hit this gen, and took severe losses in an attempt to push their media format.

Odds are, they're in it for the long haul, but let's not forget the thing that gives them the massive power to stay afloat may also be the same thing that leads to Sony pulling the plug.

Also, anyone notice the dude who burned down the CA Gamestop looked like Kalyx?

Funky Fly 10-21-2010 11:37 PM

lol someone burned down a gamestop?

Ratchet & Clank, Uncharted, Metal Gear Solid, SOCOM, MAG, Killzone, DC Universe, and Final Fantasy 7-9 & Tactics say hello.

Funky Fly 10-22-2010 01:32 AM

Final Fantasy titles could get rereleased elsewhere too. Unlikely, but possible.

To be fair, MGS games are ridiculously fun, despite the horribly convoluted storylines.

These games sell millions because they are genuinely fun to play, not because people love the "amazing" storytelling of Hideko Kojima.

Still, they have a lot more going on than God of War. Most of what they do have is better than a lot of Xbox exclusives, imo. Uncharted 2, and the Raychet games are some of the best single player experiences I've had, this console generation. And I have more fun with MAG and SOCOM than I ever did with Halo.

Funky Fly 10-22-2010 02:35 AM

Yeah, the Uncharted series looks soooo good. When I PS3 it up it'll be the first thing I pick up, followed by GoW3.

Fignuts 10-22-2010 02:38 AM

Uncharted is really awesome, with a few very minor flaws. Uncharted 2 is, for my money, the best singleplayer game of this console generation.

Mass Effect?

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2010 04:40 AM

Different tastes. I'd much rather have a game where I can do my own thing with an over-arcing story-line than a totally linear experience, hence preferring Mass Effect.

Not to say Uncharted isn't awesome though.

Funky Fly 10-22-2010 04:41 AM

Only thing that pisses me off about Mass Effect is the wall glitch. Keep falling through walls and floors when I get knocked over.

Fignuts 10-22-2010 04:47 AM

Mass Effect is certainly up there, but as an RPG, there is still a lot of tedious crap to wade through, Where as Uncharted 2 is action, from start to finish. Being that my favorite genre is 2d platformers, that's something I appreciate more than non linear freedom. Story is pretty good, and the voice acting and animations of the characters are the best I've ever seen.

The Uncharted games are the next thing I'm going to play. Right now I'm playing God of War.
I played the demo for part 3 and I was hooked. I am playing 1 and 2 first though. I figured I'd do the whole thing.
I never played 1 and 2 since I sort of stopped buying games for Playstation in college.

I'm finally getting around to playing some games on my PS3. I bought it last spring, but over the summer I didn't use it much and only really played Arkham Asylum, Ghostbusters and a few sports games (MLB and SvR) thus far.
God of War - Uncharted - Red Dead Redemption. That's my cue.

Okay, Figgy.

Still, do you expect any of that shit to resonate with BDC?

I know people bitch when I tell him he won't like something, but I've got a better grip than 95% of you on what he will and won't enjoy. And while I'm wrong sometimes, I'm pretty sure most of the shit we can name won't do anything for him.

Though for some reason, I really want to be a fly on the wall if he ever plays LittleBigPlanet.

Fignuts 10-22-2010 08:49 AM

Kane Knight, you love Dynasty Warriors, so let's not act all high and mighty about what type of games other people like.

Jeritron 10-22-2010 08:52 AM

Besides Halo and Gears of War, what are X-Box's big exclusive titles? It seems like most of everything is on both systems, so Sony only boasting God of War and Uncharted doesn't seem so bad

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2010 09:01 AM

Fable, Forza, Splinter Cell, Gears of War and Viva Pinata are games I couldn't do without if I was only allowed to own one console. Combined with time exclusive DLC and a better online service (albeit with a cost), I would rather own my 360. Also, controller preference for multi-platform games.

Still glad I don't have to choose though!

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2010 09:02 AM

Looking at the PS3 exclusive list, I would be lots without Valkirya Chronicles, Yakuza and Demon Souls though.

Jeritron 10-22-2010 09:09 AM

See I don't have much built-in interest in those games. Half of them I've actually never heard of. They may be great, but I certainly can live without them. I'm not much of a gamer though.
Basically, I don't feel as though I'm missing out on much whether I own X-Box or PS3. Not enough for me to buy both. There are 2 or 3 games on each side of the fence that I wish I could have, but such is life.

I have PS3 now because my 360 shit out on me and I decided to give PS3 a try instead. Probably just the appeal of something new since I had already owned 360. I really didn't put much thought into it.

Really I'd only like to be able to play the Gears games.
I don't give a shit about Halo because I only enjoy it while playing at my friends' homes and that option is on the table. I'm not really interested in playing it alone or with that horrible online community.
I'm actually more excited about being able to dig into the God of War and Uncharted games.

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2010 09:28 AM

Yeah, the differences are so small these days. Like I have no interest in God of War for some reason. Probably would have gotten a PS3 a lot sooner if I didn't have a PC blu-ray drive though.

BigDaddyCool 10-22-2010 09:53 AM

like I said only god of war.

But...but Resistence! And MAG! And other stuff that you won't give a shit aboot!

on a side note, Demon's Souls is awesome. It basically demonstrates that the "hardcore" and "oldschool" fans are a bunch of faggots who should be weeded from the gene pool.

Uncharted is so much fun. "Holla" at me if you want to do the multiplayer. Haven't touched that at all.

Jeritron 10-22-2010 12:56 PM

Word. I finally accepted your friend request the other day. I will "holla" at you when I get it. Need to dominate in GoW first

D Mac 10-22-2010 01:44 PM

Killzone 2 is pretty badass for PS3. Killzone 3 is coming soon.

RoXer 10-22-2010 01:50 PM

Killzone is terrible.

D Mac 10-22-2010 01:57 PM

In your opinion.

#BROKEN Hasney 10-22-2010 02:22 PM

Killzone is horrible. It's not even the best PS3 only FPS, let alone any good.

tbh, they do play together all the time, so he's not talking out his ass here.
