| just shut the fuck up and die, all of you. Don't you fucking fanboys stop and THINK for a second? "Gee, maybe they'll FIX the problems that SCII had on the PS2 in SCIII?" Especially because it uses the same engine, and all. On another note, Voldo looks badass. |

| neigh n : the characteristic sounds made by a horse What the hell do you mean? All I know is, Nintendo had exclusive rights to any RE game critical to the storyline. People complained, and its going to be on PS2 later this year or next. |

Originally posted by Sawnec Um, no, they had an exclusivity contract to the RE license for a development cycle period. After that point, Capcom is free to sell RE to whoever. Think of it as a business loophole. And as for people complaining, their names were Sony executives and business men at Capcom. Not *namless angry internet nerd 1 and 2* |

| At the time, all they said is that they'd be exclusive. They didn't say 'it'd be exclusive for a period of time, then you guys can have it'. They don't bother with that, and if that was the case with this they wouldn't bother either. Kinda ruins the effect of 'exclusive to Sony's Playstation 2, buy one now!!' if you say 'well, if you wait a bit we'll give it to you anyway'. So if there's a time delay, they're not exactly going to set a precident and tell us that delay. I think most exclusivity deals have a time delay anyway, save from those very very exclusive things like, oh, Mario or Halo. But that's obvious. If you ask me, it all comes down to the sales figures, money being thrown at them, the exact intricacies of the deal, and whether they can be bothered. Now, back to the *game*... |

| Yeah, Ziff's right about RE I think... and even so, I heard that the PS2 version doesn't exactly look that impressive because it's hard to have the PS2 hardware handle it. Reduction in polygons and the like. | |||

*dies* I saw the footage for SCIII at work last week, and I almost died. AMAZING!!! And I for one, am glad that it's only for the Ps2, its better to have certain games for certain systems, it makes the demand to buy that said system, so much higher and those who have that system, so much happier.  But, I think in due time, it will be multi-platform. I mean, look at RE4. Capcom said it'll only be on GC, and now look, its coming out on Ps2 this fall. So nothing is really certain. |

Originally posted by Anya You really do sound like a Sony Rep sometimes. O.o'' Surely nobody cares about demand to buy a certain system other than the company behind the system and the fanboys who need reassurance that other people love their console of choice as well as them. Ok, there are some cases where you hope it generates sales so the company doesn't, like, go downhill, but Sony sure isn't in trouble of THAT. And if it came out for all systems it would make EVERYONE happier. There's some twisted logic in the statement that it makes them extra happy because they can play it and certain other people can't. That is the case with some people and that's pretty sad when you think about it. |

There's some twisted logic in the statement that it makes them extra happy because they can play it and certain other people can't. That is the case with some people and that's pretty sad when you think about it. And when you have all three newer (main) systems, you tend not to care either way. Course, I don't have all three, but two. But if all the systems had all the same games, then why bother have three different types of systems? If this was the case, the Ps2 would be dead ( mean, without Final Fantasy and other great RPGs that are only on the Ps2, it wouldn't be Ps2, but PsWho?), Xbox would be the main graphics systems, as well as being online, and Gamecube would be the more durable system. I used to be a Ps2 fangirl, but then I was shown the light, due to a comic that I saw about two months ago. Now, I still favor Ps2, but I'm not going to throw the other systems to the dark, or anything of the sort. But, those people who buy a system for one, ONE, game (like Halo 2, and I have seen it), I just can't understand it. I mean, sure, I wouldn't mind getting a GC just for the Zelda game coming out, but come on, to buy a $100 system for just one $50 game, nah, no thanks, I have other games that I can play instead. You really do sound like a Sony Rep sometimes. What can I say, work has been rubbing off on me when I talk about gaming. But like I said before, SCIII might hit other platforms later on. I can't rembember if SCII was multi when it first came out, but I think it was. I would have loved to play with Link, but, that was only on the CG, of course. |

| Certainly, gaming would be different with out the infamous 'console wars', but there's nothing *positive* in having the sequel to a game that was released on all three systems being reduced to just one. It's just a bit of a smack in the face for a large number of SC fans who were introduced to the series on the GC (and the Xbox owning SC fans too, of course). Oh, and yes, it was multiplatform on release. 'I would have loved to play with Link,' Reeeeally now Anya. |

| Now when the orginal SC came out, wasn't that one, only on the Dreamcast? Actually, the orginal would be Soul Blade, so I should make this question clear, I mean Soul Calibur one, that came out on the Dreamcast, was that only on the Dreamcast? Reeeeally now Anya. Oh yea, especially how he's gonna look in the new Zelda game. |

Originally posted by Anya Yes, 'Soul Calibur' was only on the Dreamcast. Soul Blade was for the PSX (maybe Saturn?) So you're right. By the way, is Soul Blade good?  (Saw it recently) |

| I know that Soul Blade was on the PsX, (we actually had a copy of it at the store a few weeks ago), but on the Saturn? It sounds familar, but....I'm gonna look it up realt fast to see. Bingo, that didn't take me too long to find. |

The console wars are good, otherwise we wouldn't have consoles at affordable prices. Still, I can honestly see Sony losing shares to Microsoft and Nintendo if they release PS3 with as high price in the next generation. Thought in general, the next generation of consoles is so unsure. Heh, maybe Microsoft get a big share in the next generation... but it would just be scary if they got a majority in yet another area.  ;(edited by Kitten Yiffer on 04-06-05 05:40 AM) |
