Sony botch chance to get ahead of Natal

Man I love Sony but COME ON GUYS!

GOONL!NE writes: "As much as we hate to say it; LittleBigPlanet is getting on a bit. After picking up many awards in '08, it just isn't fit for purpose in the new decade, and after all, no-one plays itâ¦right?

Wrong. So, so wrong. See, over on the EU Playstation Forums, a group of LBP fans have banded together to see who can build the best bridge-crossing machine. While most people could hardly work out how to place a switch in the Design Mode, these guys and gals have made some truly stunning contraptions, all in working order and looking pretty funky. It's pretty hard to get more epic."

Games Journalism Is Broken
Critical Gamer writes: I've always liked reading what game journos have to write. I've seen videogame journalism change over the years however, and not for the better. I still enjoy reading it, and for many reasons; to find out the latest news, to garner information about new and upcoming games, to read exclusive interviews â" and now and again, to enter competitions or nab a free beta code of some kind.

You may have noticed that nowhere in my list of reasons for reading up on games, was mention of the writing itself. I don't want to sound old before my time (the age of thirty is stalking me, gnashing its teeth) but there's no two ways about it: the writing really was much better when I was young.

PS3 fanboys, before you start calling Natal a glorified EyeToy, first ask yourself why anyone want to copy that crap, then note that I have a tendency to be sarcastic, then note that this is not an article designed to bash (or praise) anyone. Just hit the back button on your browser if that's why you're here. Lastly, Wii fanboys â" who am I kidding, there's no such thing as a Wii fanboy (editor's note to self: expect sarcasm to be greatly overlooked here)."

So, yeah, eBay user dave311freak is trying to unload his massive Steam collection (139 titles strong) onto whoever's willing to fork over the most cash for it. As it stands, nobody's actually dropped a bid on the auction, so we're not sure he'll be successful in this venture.

Why making games is for the young
Is the development sector leaving its veterans behind?

In the 1970s sci-fi Logan's Run humanity lives in an underground city full of sexually promiscuous party people.

At least they do until they hit 30, when they're toasted by the authorities.

Does this happen to 40-year-old developers, who don't even benefit from the Bacchanalian revelry beforehand? After all, most game developers are young, as we discussed last month.

Assuming managers aren't taking older staff out the back and shooting them, why do the years of long activity of making games involve so few individuals over 40?

Here are a few guesses...

The MicUse or Abuse?

2010-01-14T04:00:00.001-08:00

Pasco man convicted in shooting over stolen PlayStation 3

A dispute over a stolen PlayStation 3 and other property ultimately cost Doug Abrams his life for this reason: "I'm kind of a good judge of character," Edward Stoddard, the man accused of killing Abrams in April 2008, testified Wednesday.

The MicUse or Abuse?
Back in the day where the palette multiplayer games consisted of local Crash team racing, Mario kart 64, Goldeneye, Super Smash bros and such, nobody really cared about the need for 'balance', 'level progression' and 'achievements' Games were played just for pure fun, who cared if the guns weren't balanced or if some weapons were too 'cheap' there was nothing better than running around with a RC-P90 draining out the massive clip on your buddies, humiliating them and accuse them of screen looking. But like Bob Dylan once wrote, the times they are a-changing, and oh how multiplayer has changed.

Grumpy Gurevitz Writes: Recently there has been a spate of predictions that we will soon see the end of the console war, with us being presented with a platform which either supports multiple operating systems, or which is an open platform. The argument is, eventually all publishers and developers will support this as their primary development platform. The other method by which the prediction might come true is that we also might still end up using different platforms, but via a a control box which then accesses the games via the great server in the sky, otherwise known as Cloud computing.

Why the 80's were about Saturday morning cartoons, videogames and Sybil Danning
Critical Gamer Writes: The 80's were a contentious time in America; Cold War looming, double-digit inflation and a frightening new disease. But if you were a typical western, suburban boy you were in a metauniverse, one founded in horror, science-fiction and sexploitation. The birth of many aspects of modern horror; the survival horror videogame genre, horror sexploitation, sexualized science-fiction and dirty slasher comedy were born or revived in the 80's. Atari 2600's Haunted House invented the videogame genre of horror survival in 1981. A year before Sybil Danning made the high talent Battle Beyond the Stars, playing the sexy, lascivious queen of an alien race. In 1983 Sega would turn footage of the film into part of a sci-fi shooter, laserdisc arcade game Astron Belt. Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street would define the slasher film cycle, as Sybil Danning starred in the similarly themed 1984 film They're Playing with Fire. All the while you could always rely on Count Chocula cereal and a healthy diet of similarly themed Saturday morning cartoonsâ¦and I loved every moment of it!

Artist Resume Reveals Princess Ashe In Project Fortress
Siliconera: Recently, Square Enix president Yoichi Wada stated that he was open to the idea of outsourcing the Final Fantasy franchise to western developers.

Information on Project Fortress trickled out onto the net for weeks following its initial discovery by way of artist resumés. But the extent of our knowledge of the game at the time was that it was set in Ivalice and may or may not be directly connected to Final Fantasy XIIâ¦ at least until now.

After coming across the above concept art for Ashe from yet another artist resumé, it's probably safe to assume there was a stronger connection to FFXII than we initially believed. Her crown, which looks similar to the one worn by Raminas, would suggest that she's gone up the majestic ladder since her FFXII days. This probably means Fortress takes place sometime in the future.

A year in gaming quotes: Kotick, Beatles, Tony Hawk
Ars: 2009 certainly was a busy year for gaming. We've had curious console refreshes, boycotts of blockbuster games, and more peripheral-laden games than you can shake a stick at. We even got to shoot people in an airport. And what better way to celebrate the year that was 2009 than by looking at some of the more interesting things said by games industry folks. Here is your 2009, in quotes.

"We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games."

Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick, speaking at the Deutsche Bank Securities Technology Conference in San Francisco. While Kotick may not be all that popular among gamers-and quotes like this are a prime example why-it's hard to argue with his business sense. Kotick has earned $37 million in stock options since the November launch of Modern Warfare 2.

From the article:

"The recent rumours of a Call of Duty game set in the Vietnam War elicited a number of predictable responses from the gaming community. Obviously there were those who lamented the idea of taking the series back in time (again) but perhaps most expected was the reappearance of the Treyarch-haters. It seems that whenever the Californian developer makes the headlines, many game fans line up to kick it squarely in the junk."

GN, Gamespot and Game Trailers are considered as the three biggest gaming websites in the industry. They have millions of visitors each month and are considered the most important and reliable by many, including publishers, developers, console makers etc. But there seems to be a trend, a movement rather taking place; one that could be written under a headline dubbed "rebellion." You see, whether it's justified or not, gamers are moving away from the bigger sites and closer to the smaller ones especially when they want an unbiased game review. So here's the question: are you one of them? The reasons for this are not too hard to find.

At launch, "Game Room" will bring you a library of 30 original arcade and console classics such as "Centipede" and "Asteroids Deluxe" from Atari Inc. and other favorites from Activision Inc., Intellivision, Konami Corp. and more, all shown in their original cabinets. The cost? Well, it's not as simple as that."

Dead Rising 2: Capcom what are you doing?
GB writes: "Zombie gorefest Dead Rising was the sole reason I bought an Xbox 360 all those years ago but I'm sad to say I'm feeling completely underwhelmed about the sequel. I was a big fan of George Romero's classic 1978 Dawn of the Dead movie so the idea of adopting the role of a survivor holed up in a shopping mall and fending off the zombie horde appealed somewhat. Now, a few years on, I can't help but feel that where the undead are concerned, the whole concept is suffering from overkill right now."

Grumpy Gurevitz: The Sky's the limit
Grumpy Gurevitz Writes: I do not have a subscription to Sky. Sky, for our international readers, is the most successful subscription based TV service in the UK. Traditionally it's distributed via satellite technology with setup boxes, but in the last year or so it has created a web offering and migrated to consoles. I really want Sky, but can never justify the cost. I'm not in enough to justify the sport and the few, high quality drama shows they have that I can get on DVD for less money. The movies and other services I can live without, especially as I now have offerings via my Xbox 360 and PS3.

However as much as I cannot justify Sky, I would really, really like it. The idea of having extra choices on what to view is a nice luxury and over the year I'm sure it would have the capacity to enrich my life in some way!

Permanence and Decision Making in Video Games
Critical Gamer Writes: A few weeks ago I was reading a very interesting round-table discussion in a well known gaming magazine, concerning the role of traditional narrative and the author in modern video games. At one point they touched upon games trying to impose a sense of permanence upon gamer decisions, and they highlighted an individual, his name escapes me, who decided to play with permanent death. Basically, if he died it was permanent game over. This got me thinking about the wider issue of games attempting to impose a sense of irreversibility onto the player, and as an extension of that, how developers utilise player led decisions in their games.

I can see the appeal of, and am slightly intrigued by, the idea of approaching a game with a sense of finality. Taking the Far Cry 2 example, it's easy to see how this would add an entirely new dimension to the game. Creeping around every corner, exercising caution where you would usually run in blindly, and spending large portions of the game running away around the nearest corner to pull bullets out of your body. Come to think of it, it doesn't sound quite as much fun as I initially thought!

Why The Resident Evil Franchise Is Dying
Remember back in the late 90's when a little game called Resident Evil was released on the Playstation? It was full of terrible voice acting, stupid sound effects and a really cheesy vibe in general, but it had great gameplay and was genuinely creepy for it's time. Resident was one of the first games to ever be known as a Survival Horror and it cemented itself as a classic for the rest of time.

Five games released before their time
Ambition and the desire to innovate is ultimately what fuels our industry, but without the hardware available to make some developer's more ambitious projects really come to life, we're often left with uncooked or technologically limited games that pale in comparison to the marvels hinted at by the design documents.

Here are five games that GamerZines think came way before their time, and ultimately, what we'd love to see a return of on current hardware.

Who Said Xbox 360 Is Maxed Out? Nothing But Fallacies
You know what? Let's get something straight: The PS3's hardware is more advance than Xbox 360, that's something we all can agree on, but that does not mean the Xbox 360 is maxed out; not by a long shot. Year after year the same claim is being made, yet year in and year out developers continue to push the boundaries on the Xbox 360.

Bioware had something to say about this issue recently, the company still believes that there's still a lot of juice left in the 360, going as far as denying that the system has reached its full potential:

The last 10 years brought us a handful of new consoles, a plethora of amazing games, as well as light-years worth of technological advances. I will be going over the highlights of the last 10 years, as experienced by myself, so stick with me and don't crucify me for missing anything important."

Electronic Arts has announced plans to shut down a bundle of servers for games no one is playing any more.

Microsoft Research patents controller-free computer input via EMG muscle sensors
Microsoft is connecting EMG sensors to arm muscles and then detecting finger gestures based on the muscle movement picked up by those sensors. It does away for the need of a pesky camera (or Power Glove) to read complicated hand gestures, and can even sense modified versions of the gestures to be performed while your hands are full. Microsoft's developing a wireless EMG sensor module that could be placed all over the body, and while like all Microsoft Research projects this seems pretty far from market, there's a small, optimistic part of us that could see some of the benefits here for controlling mobile devices. And boy do we love controlling mobile devices.

The Decade's Top 17 Most Outstanding Devs
They are the life blood of the gaming industry and it just wouldn't feel right if we say goodbye to the past decade without recognizing them. If it were not for developers, gamers couldn't get to experience the memorable titles we've seen the last decade. I'm talking about the games that the media can't stop talking about. The ones gamers keep playing for years; even after ten years (Final Fantasy, God of War, Street Fighter anybody?). They get you excited, you want to take a vacation from work and play till you've completed the missions. You cry, laugh, you get scared, and sometimes your rage overwhelms causing you to throw the controller into that spanking new HD set.

Giant Bomb's PlayStation 3-Only Game of the Year, 2009

After years spent finding its footing, the PlayStation 3 came through with some of the best platform exclusives we played in 2009, and it just so happened that those exclusives were produced almost exclusively by Sony itself.

Teen found after meeting his 42-year-old online 'soulmate'
On Tuesday evening, 16-year-old Andrew Kane nonchalantly asked his mother and father if they would drive him from their Barrie, Ont., home to a hotel in nearby Midland, where he planned to meet a 42-year-old woman with whom he had been having a secret relationship over the Internet.

His stunned parents refused and the teen calmly returned to the computer, telling them he would let the woman know he wasn't coming. At 2 a.m., Marlene Kane heard her front door open, and found her son gone, leaving behind a troubling trail of web chats that led to Houston, Tex., and the World of Warcraft.

Alcohol: The Real Gamer Fuel
Loot Ninja writes:

"For me, drinking and video games go hand in hand on Friday and Saturday night. We all do it. We start out in our younger years as small kids drinking juice boxes before the next level of Sonic. We graduated up to soda as we got older before taking on that next passenger in Crazy Taxi. So as an "adult" (I use that term loosely when referring to myself) we carry the torch into alcoholic beverages, mixing them in with our video game time. It can be fun times, or it can totally fuck up your game save forever. Here are a few tips with New Year's coming up to help you stay up late and get your game on."

Is Natal Being Over Hyped?
Koku Gamer writes: "Ever since Project Natal was first introduced at E3 2009, many industry watchers started to anticipate the peripheral. Big networks likes NBC and Fox even showed the device off. The Jimmy Fallon show had Kudo from Microsoft even demonstrate the hardware working with Burnout Paradise; it looked very solid and ready to be used for a wide audience. The technology was convincing and even made some of us that didn't believe the technology would work change our minds about the device. NBC featuring such a device surely helped the hype as millions (probably more like thousands since it's Jimmy Fallon) saw Natal in use. Does it seem that Microsoft is doing too much too early?"

Love/hate: Being a girl gamer
Destructoid writes: I really dislike the term "Girl Gamer" though mostly because I'm 47 and it's been a long, long time since I was called a "girl". I'm a gamer and I happen to be female. That being said, since joining the world of gaming communities, I've come to detest many of the stereotypes of female gamers.

I hate that they create a stereotype that makes it more difficult for the average female gamer to game online or join gaming communities without getting sexually harassed because apparently all girls game naked and we use controllers for bras. I hate that so many "top 10 female gamers" or "gamer girl" contests are based entirely on the quality of those slutty pictures and have little to do with their gaming skills.

But I love that things have changed and are changing. I love that being a female who games is becoming more "normal" and not an oddity, an anomaly, or a potential opportunity for hot PSN cam sex. I like that both males and females are less often stereotyped and that the gaming industry is starting to see that playing the "hot girl" marketing card isn't working as well any more. I like that the diversity that are real people and gamers is starting to show on gaming sites.

Insider's Guide to Maximizing Game Trade-In Values at Gamestop and Other Retailers
Bright Hub writes: "One of the most disappointing things during my time as a store manager for the country's largest video game retailer was constantly seeing customers receive depressingly small amounts of credit for the games they traded in. I understand that the company has a right to make money, but we as consumers don't have to automatically accept whatever price the clerk behind the counter quotes us. There are ways to increase the amount you get for your games.

Now, I'm not talking about anything illegal or unscrupulous. I'm merely saying that there are perfectly acceptable ways to manipulate the system to ensure you get the highest possible value for your trade
ins. I used these methods to ensure that I always had enough credit to pick up those hot upcoming games, and in the interest of improving the lives of gamers everywhere, I'm passing on a few of my favorites."

Gold PS3 "world's most expensive console"

For some people though Blu-ray playback just isn't enough... and so they stick 200,000 on one of these bad boys... Billed as "the world's most expensive games console", professional bling-ing company, Stuart Hughes is offering a PlayStation 3 'Supreme' reformed with 1,600 grams of solid 22ct gold.

The Top 15 Most Influential Video Games Of The Decade
Here is a listing of the top 15 most influential video games of the decade and the reasons why.

Halo (2001)Nintendo's Goldeneye 007 was the game that took multiplayer first-person shooting on game consoles and made it mainstream. But it was Halo that truly rallied the troops. When the futuristic shooter debuted alongside the Xbox in 2001, its well-tuned controls made Halo the rallying point for a new generation of gamers. Of course, the tangle of CAT-5 cables at every Halo LAN party was also ground zero for the culture of frat-boy gamers that plague Xbox Live. You win some, you lose some.

As 2009 draws to a close, gamers everywhere are flocking to see the chart topping games of the past year.

Creepy Schoolgirl Massage Parlour Based Off LOVE PLUS Opens In Japan
Remember the Nintendo DS dating sim, LOVE PLUS? No? The story of the Japanese man who married a LOVE PLUS game character might jump your memory.

Well, a massage parlour based on the game (also aptly named LOVE PLUS) has recently been opened in Japan. The employees are all women who dress as Japanese schoolgirls and pretend to be the game's characters while giving customers their massages.

The parlour's main website explicitely states that customers are not allowed to ask for employees to undress or perform sexual favours, though they did mention that customers are guaranteed 200% satisfaction. Seriously. They actually had to warn against that.

This game sure brings out the, uh, strangeness in people.
