They pretty much copied an article that Gametrailers wrote and was panned for. Sony never mentioned Kinect. That video was released as a part of a series of Playstation Celebrations videos on the Playstaion Blog, it was not meant to be an attack against Kinect. It's weird how they've decided to write an article about that video, but they didn't write any on the other videos being released on the Blog.

The bottom of the article makes me sick:

"Check out the whole video below and then cast your vote on what type of technology, either the Kinect or the PlayStation Move, will win in the end."

Articles written up to feed fanboys, it's disgusting and when larger sites do the same thing, it only makes the industry look much more immature. 

Softpedia are another site I'll have to cross off my 'reputable reviews' list along with Gamespot, IGN and Game Informer. All I've got left is Giant Bomb, Joystiq, Eurogamer and Destructoid.

Why am i not surprised. Anythings to gain hits i see.

Anyone who considers Destructoid to be anything other then the dedicated trolls of gaming reviews is fooling themselves.

......I think you quoted the wrong guy.


Not really. I guess it would have been more exact to quote Doobie only though, but I wasn't implying you were the person I speaking of.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Sony must be feeling the pressure of Kinect.

You should have probably read the article or at least read through the thread before posting.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Its called EyeToy: Kinetic.  release date 2005


Kinect =/= Kinetic

Im making fun with the name similarity.

playstation/gasstation

all both do is pump out old crap.

funny!

(for the ones who don't get it : sony keeps on doing remakes of games we all should have already played/fuel is very old decomposition of some sea algea organism i for got the name).

Give me some examples of the "old crap" that pump out from the playstation


GoW collection; Ico collection; splinter cell collection; whatever bunch of old games collection....

satisfied?

(oh and this was to point out that similarities in names are ridiculous as arguments, in case you didn't get it)

No... Splinter Cell collection isn't sony.

B4 GoW3 released there was a survey by SONY asking what people wanted to come with the limited addition. Gow 1 and 2 bundled was asked for so much that they figured there's probably demand for both games on a single disc rereleased. Turns out they were right. It's sold Over a million pretty quickly.

When SONY launched Share.Blog.Playstation for people to vote on things that they wanted, and ICO collection was one of the first things added by users. it got OVER A THIRD OF THE VOTES OF X-GAME CHAT. It would be insane not to do it and the fans WANTED. Both games were highly praised but not alot of people played them. Especially ICO. I'd also like to add that while I haven't checked recently, I copy of ICO on EBAY is 150$. I tried buying it at gamestop when I went to get Heavy Rain and the guy said 40$... don't even know if that was new or used... The Sly collection idea was also picking up votes pretty fast before it was taken down once it was announced.

SONY's pumping out stuff that we gamers WANT. 3rd Parties like the one's behind SplinterCell collection just seem to think there's probably demand for their stuff aswel.

Nintendo claims they don't listen to fanfeed back much.... do they know if gamers want the number of ports and remakes coming to 3DS???

you need to take into account of the context.

I was replying to someone making fun of kinect because of name similarities... and since he was a sony fan, I did so by making fun of the playstation name similarity, to show how absurd it was.

 

but yeah, in essence I do think all remakes are worthless.... especially the ones like the new mario collection (and i'm a nint fan :-/)

PS3 fans think Eyetoy was revolutionary for gaming, while the original GameBoy already had a dedicated camera peripheral 12 years ago.

Of course it means nothing. Amazon has never been an indicator of sales.
