The Sony PS3 thread (apparently *still* obnoxious!)

Post by Kronos »

Well seeing as it is the best of the "next gen" console (not that there are any others really ;) ) about time we had a single thread for all things PS3 no?

So to kick off....

Resistance:Fall of man is looking smoother and smoother with each posted vid, this is probably going to be the one that sells it for me. So polished it shines through a lead door! Check out the Gamersday uploads on GT, the tell tale sign of well coded graphics is the lack of screen tear when rotating the viewpoint during action :)


Anyone know what's happening with that quirky little title we were teased with called "Afrika" ages ago??

Also anyone have PS3 specific vids for NFS:Carbon (the ones on GT are for the 360, and contrary to what everyone said there is still lag on the full retail copy of that game too 8O)

In the interest of being positive -

Mercenaries 2 looks rather good, going on the preview in Edge a while back and a video I just found on gamespot. The first one was good fun, and they'd have to break it quite badly to stop it being worth playing :)

:lol: Not at all, I'm not saying anything that the comparative videos don't say for the multiformat games ;)

I own a 360, and I would own a Wii as a party game machine for fun but not at 180 smackers and not at that level of graphical similarity to the GC *meh*

The difference is I genuinly can't wait to play some of those launch titles and that's a good thing for gaming as a whole anyway.

Some vids on gametrailers.com here

.....but nothing like a trailer or gameplay above standard crappy wmv quality. Looks fun though.

Ill have a look on Gamespot for some now I'm intrigued ta :)

Did you play the first one? I'd rate it higher than GTA, but there was definite potential for improvement. The world in Mercs 2 looks particularly lovely, bit like Far Cry.

Hopefully they will post another video soon.

Yeah, I enjoyed the original, even though it suffered from some horrendous bugs and felt like "GTA- Beruit Expansion Set". Getting money from stealing tanks and selling them to the Russian mafia was ace :D
