Now, that's what I call:

NATURAL user interface.

Here is similar stuff yet a bit more advanced I did for Gran Turismo 5 B-spec some time ago :)

WHAT? Pardon me, iPad 1 not able to carry this game? Sorry guys, this means you should be probably back to school realning about developing games. CPU intensive? Resource intensive? Please, don't be funny with this.

With carefull thinking I can see this game fit and work on DS. The original DS. With 4MB RAM and 640 kb VRAM and 67 MHz. Yeah, that requires some streaming of textures, some downscaling, optimizations, but say, isn't it what skillful development is about?

So, I regret buying Machinarium in the first place after this. I say NO to lame ports and NO to such politics.

Well, actually AFAIK Gran Turismo for PSP sold 1,8M currently. So, that would indicate rather not-so-great sales for Forza or ultra-good sales for Gran Turismo PSP? Frankly, all games generally sell A LOT better on X360 than on PSP...

Have been playing this during Gamescon and must say the following:

- it feels laggy (just like some wiimote based games), which causes discomfort especially when trying to steer (jumps are not that much of a concern)
- for people with somewhat larger feet, the peripherial is very unconfortable - it's too narrow. add in the un-stable nature of the beast (you must almost fight for the ballance all the time) and you got problem ready
- every 1 - 2 minutes you have to reposition the board on floor, as it moves around quite a lot during jumps
- beeing experienced in snowboard and possesiing somewhat basic skateboard skill (able to ollie ;)) I must say the game simply feels awkward

All-in-all for me it's rather a big miss than a hit.

I thought porn video links were forbidden on this site...

Well, what is often overlooked, it has 2 times more computing power (altough not that easy to use) and more RAM -> that could result in some games really pushing it to the bounds and we can see some nice effects on the DSi

Actually it seems that at least some of the items have re-vamped specs. For example the obsidian suit is level 5 which gives you boost in the performance and item slots, also some guns have in description that they have boosted specs...

I own PS2, Wii, DS and PSP. What I must say, that I really like all of them AND I must say I would REALLY appreciate if my Wii could read DVD's and show JPGs burned on my DVDs and CDs so that I don't have to copy them to SD when need to show to family. I use Opera/Wii a lot. This said, I don't mind all the 'extras' with consoles. I prefer PSP's OS to DS because I can watch movies from there, even browse my e-mail occassionally.

All this said, i absolutely like my DS and Wii (as much as PS2 + PSP). And I'm absolutely positive with PS3's additional caps (including Blu Ray) and X360's. If Wii had all that PS3 has and X360 - tell you what, it would really be good. It's good as gaming device, but it could be even better.

So - I don't think *dedicated gaming machine* is being anything positive. We need more. In the same manner, as we have cell phones that take photos, manage our time and allow for web browsing. Do you imagine any cell phone getting success nowadays if it had ONLY voice phonecalls capabilities (+ phonebook perhaps)? Would you REALLY love one more than you do your current device (even it it's not iPhone)? I doubt it...

ZOMG TEH COMMODORE PWNZ.

Well... actually not feeling any better after that...
