'my neighbour' and 'motorhead' should be switched.
I thought "English of the Dead" was some sorta Lou Dobbs game until you explained it. I've got to import that mother
er. Holy cow that's awesome - until you realize, of course, that it's probably yet another shiny coat of paint on HOTD2, which I've trolloped through enough, armed with both gun and dreamcast backpack with keyboard.
[quote name='Strell']It's interesting when you think about the next round of consoles.
Since Blu-ray will end up being the standard for entertainment choices, and since game developers most likely will want all that data to play around with, what happens for MS and Nintendo?
I'm really curious. I don't see MS going Blu-ray since that's like an admission of defeat, and I don't see Nintendo doing it because they don't want to pay a royalty fee to Sony (no matter how small).
So I wonder what happens next when it comes to game media. Sony's already tied that format to the non-videogame part of the entertainment industry.
Fun to think about. Though I guess if the developer's wet dream of all downloaded/no physical media comes to pass, this is all dead, eh?[/QUOTE]
Nintendo's more than happy to go with a 'proporietary' format (even if it's really DVD tweaked enough so as to avoid being called DVD). I see MS using BD, actually. Nintendo has shown that you do not need movie playback to be a successful console, so perhaps 2011's consoles (sounds so 'futurey,' doesn't it?) won't go for that again. But if they do, they really only have BD as an option, and if you're going to go in that direction, you might as well use the bloody thing for the game format.
Then again, when rationality means your console competitor makes money for every console and software you sell for your console, rationality gets thrown right the
ing window, killing the baby and wasting the bathwater.
I'm happy to report my day will consist of reading and seeing if I can stomach Devil May Cry 1. What the hell is "Devil May Cry," anyway? Not the game, the building. It's like a storefront, but all the spiked demons on the wall suggest a hitman service of some sort. But Dante's early lines in the game suggest "Devil May Cry" has business hours that end at 9PM. If you're going to fight the demons of hell, fictional conventions suggest that it's a very stupid idea to not have late night hours, like a Taco Bell drive through. That's when business peaks. A smart restaurant is open on Mother's Day, and a smart demon-killing service wouldn't close at 9PM.
Everyone knows that.
