Please make that picture so we can print them and put them on our games. I would love to have that spoof on my 360 version of the game. Cover art is good.

Problem: It's not an Xbox...

-_-

Oh Capcom, why did you cop out... were sales on your mediocre shooter so bad you wanted to try your luck on the PS3? Can I expect a DS Port too?

:\

But really, i'm not suprised, most PS3 games play like ass anyways ;)

In all seriousness, this is devistating to all three people who were waiting on this...

Ok, really, it's horrible... it's an outrage...

Correction, most crappy untended to and given little attention ports play like crap, the ones that actually make it out can often be a vast amount of fun.

Apparently, you do, because you took the time to respond. If nobody really cared, they'd have just ignored the statement.

Way to be a dumb douche.

I bit of a quandary here, it is apparent crono went first, but then again, claiming a game that sucked, "purely based on the person who played but" even though it is apparent several critics actually enjoyed it could be seen as a lie. Which I myself am not fond of people who lie.

I will just wait and see how this goes then.

I believe he has shown us this is true. Since I see this game was actually well liked by many people.

He probably is an example of people who hate things because it's cool.

I'm waiting for someone to say something like "O that game sucked, thats why they had technical problems" or "Who cares if that game had technical problems, it sucked".

Apparently, any game with a perfect 10 is immune to having programming errors. "Orange box?"

What I am trying to say is, technical problems, such as a games engine not running right, and a game not being fun are two entirely different things. By the logic ever game that was ever truly great had a team of great coders. I for one know that is total bullsh!t.

Here is a hypothetical example, lets take the worlds best "programmer", there is nothing this guy can't code, now make him work with the worlds worst game planer. He wants to make a game where you go around throwing dung at sheep so they will go to sleep. I bet to you that dung throwing system will be the best the world will ever see, just know one would ever want to actually try it.

I've played great buggy games before, and I've played stable but sh!t games before. By the logic of great games automatically must have had great programmers, the teams that made Guitar hero and DDR must have been gods. Even though those games are just you pushing the button when it gets to the line, and anyone can make a flash game version of it.....


Not to mention games like Turok and lost planet didn't suck, according to meta critic, they where ok to actually good.

Further more, how do we know the skills of the people working on these games. Why is it so hard to accept that console is causing trouble. Several people have stated the ps3 was hard to program for.

And you're incorrect sir, I would play a game where I could throw poo at sheep. Just think of the interesting conversations it would start. "Why are you throwing poo at sheep?" It's entertaining. "Is it the sheep's poo?" *pauses game and looks at other person* You know, I never stopped to consider that...

I too would gladly play a game where you flug poo at sheep. Just think of the Wii port! Poo-flinging waggle action FTW!

In fact, one could take the poo-flinging engine and apply it to a whole slew of poo-flinging mini-games. You could play a monkey in a zoo, flinging poo at the middle schoolers taunting you. Extra points for getting it in their mouthes... that sort of thing.

Sheep+dung flinging = Black and White, which I for one, loved. Perhaps it was because you could fling sheep at dung if you wanted to mix things up -- a very diverse flinging experience, all in all.

O my..... :)

I remember setting poo on fire at throwing tossing it at the others god temple, didn't really do a whole lot, but would annoy who ever you where playing against.

In anycase, it would still put alot of people off.

Why do they insist on giving PS3 owners crappy versions of their games as if we don't enjoy good games? COD4 and Assassins Creed should have let everyone know that if you make a good multiplatform game, PS3 owners will buy it. I really wanted to play this game since I never had a 360 and the demo I played of it at GameStop (on the 360) was very good. But this is very disappointing. For you developers’ out there "If you’re not going to do it right, don't do it at all."....(stares at EA)

It's not that the PS3 gets crappy ports. It's just the unnecessary proprietary architecture that Sony decided to give it's PS3. Why reinvent the wheel? Also please don't tell me the PS3 has this magical untapped potential that only mages and sorcerers have seen. To anyone with an IQ over 90 in the gaming industry will tell you there is no untapped potential.

@Leobebes
The PS3 architecture is different not crappy. Its been proven by many of developers’ that they can produce a great multiplatform on the PS3..COD4, Assassins Creed, DMC4, Burnout and Dirt. So don't try and act like it’s only the PS3 that is the problem. Developers’ may have to work harder on the PS3 but only because the architecture is different than what they are use to. If you call yourself a real gamer you know that the games that are released at the beginning of a consoles’ life don't even hold a candle to the games that will come once they have become comfortable with the system. The PS3 has a lot of life yet... ask Insomniac.

No, it does get crappy ports. Games from devs like Insomniac, Incognito, and Naughty Dog prove the system is more than capable. But you can feel free to blame the crappy ports on the architecure if you want, that's a valid argument. The two ideas aren't mutually exclusive.

I never said the PS3's architecture is inferior its just unnecessarily convoluted. It's like adding a pedal to a bicycle even though all you really need is 2. The manufacturer added the pedal just too be different and unique and supposedly represent itself as if it's "outside the box". In actuality though its unnecessary. Sure the PS3 has potential but so does the 360 and possible the Wii due to its unique peripheral.

So what Insomniac says the PS3 has this amazing untapped potential, but until Insomniac decides to develop for the 360 then I think their prognostications would carry a little more weight.

Remember Sony's schpeel about it's emotion engine last generation? The Xbox came out without marketing speak and trumped its ass.

The PS3 is a nice machine but the cell is completely unnecessary when it comes to recreational gaming. It's like putting a Ferrari engine on Ford Focus.

This game is very very good, stop bashing already. I have it. Its almost an AAA game IMO, just some minor issues but it was very fun and had a good multiplyer. If part 2 ever OFFICIALLY gets announced Ill probably pick it up.

Leobebes is making some good points I might add.
