Forums - Sony - PS3 is getting the ultimate version of Fatal Inertia!

http://www.s-times.net/11242007/03/koei_ps3_fatal_inertia_will_surpass_xbox_360_version

 

A KOEI spokesperson told the website Eurogamer that they're actively working to improve upon the Xbox 360 original release and give PS3 gamers something to be excited about.

According to the rep, they're currently working on various technical areas as well as working on a better demo than the one that was previously released for Live gamers.

Fatal Inertia was actually originally announced as a PS3 exclusive, but it then fell upon delays due to trying to get it to run well on the Unreal Engine 3.

"A completely frustrating game for all the wrong reasons. The challenge here isn’t the good kind of challenge that can be overcome naturally over the course of time as you become more familiar with the game. It’s a cheap challenge where any single mistake almost takes you completely out of the race," wrote Gametap in a review of FI on the 360.

FI is currently "in development for 2008."

 

 

KOEI is fully aware that the Xbox 360 debut of Fatal Inertia was somewhat disappointing, and the company is confident that the PS3 version will be a much better game.

Hmmm , good news , though I dont think this is a game that could compete with Wipeout HD ... Still , it could have a powerfull 40-50k opening in Japan at least , that would help Koei to gather some money afther the bomb that was the 360 version ...



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

I doubt the game will fare much better on PS3 or Wii (if it could be done).



That game blew, only the power of the cell can save it.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Fatal Inertia was horrible. I don't honestly see why KOEI is bothering, especially when the PS3 is getting Wipeout.

well the PS3 version has been in development since what.. 2005. It would be a waste of dev time and money not to release it.

I never got to play any of those games, is it similar to Fzero?



KOEI was always a B-rate developer anyway, so who really cares. I can't think of a single truly excellent game that they've ever made.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

KOEI is mainly only good at hack and slash games.

Koei is just saying that to try and increase sales. "xbox360 version sucks!, the REAL game is the PS3 version... so get it!!" blah blah.
