I'm hella glad Uncharted wasn't fantasy. I can't imagine it any other way.

You need to remember, to every opinion its weight. A quality opinion is one that considers multiple factors in its development. When one side is considered more than another for the sake of elevating it, then the opinion becomes biased. When one side is considered more than another due to lack of knowledge, it's lack of knowledge. I don't want to name you anything anymore, so from now on I'll just keep it general, I just think you weren't taking everything into account when formulating your thought. Peace |
You say you don't want to name me anything more? That means you consider you can name me something more. If you cannot push forward and spill what you are thinking then please don't try to taunt me.
With your explanation bias, are you saying that that is my case? If that is so, tell me, in which part of what I have discussed about this topic of Xbox being an influence to all Sony studios my preference for Sony has clouded my judgement and has made me left out facts in favor of my preference?
There is bias eveywhere because of our subjectivity, but that doesn't mean I cannot separate facts from opinions. If you think that I have diluded these two in my comments, point out where I have done such thing.

This thread is dumb, and you know it xxain. :P
1. Gran Turismo, Killzone, God of War, Wipeout, Ratchet, Siren, and Twisted Metal all stayed the same regardless of any push from Sony. Only two studios showed any noticeable change in direction this generation: Naughty Dog with Uncharted and Insomniac with Resistance.
However, I don't think anybody would claim Naughty Dog's direction with Uncharted was a bad decision, and you have no right to complain about Insomniac's decision with Resistance, given how many times you've complained to me about Insomniac making more and more Ratchet and not trying anything new, using this as an excuse to not play their best game ever, A Crack in Time.
2. You wouldn't have bought most of these games anyway. How many times have you said western games suck? If it's not from SCEJ, you're not interested.
There should be a rule to overturn bans (at brendude's ban), luckily the most controversial banner (zexen_lowe) doesn't visit as much anymore.
I always thought it was because of 'the power of the cell' Sony basically had to create something very realistic because of how they hyped up their Cell power;..
Am I the only one who really wants to see how Uncharted with a fantasy setting would look like?

I'd love to as well. Apparently their original designs involved dragons. Anything involving dragons is awesome.
I really would love to see them take a crack at a Tolkien-esque artstyle. Though I fear they'd make it look somewhat like Jak, which would be similar to Warcraft. I'd prefer either something more realistic like Dark Souls, or something totally off the wall like Borderlands.
Thank you Xbox for making Uncharted better than it would have been.
Western games > eastern games.

I don't think he's calling Xbox owners simpletons. He's calling the general public, or shooter fans, simpletons. That's not necessarilly an insult toward Xbox owners. The mass public is less educated than the hardcore & more likely to follow the 'what's hot' trend as opposed to thinking for themselves. If fact, if you read a few lines down, then you can see that Not only is this directed at the general public (Not Xbox owners), it's also directed at Uncharted fans that bought it because it had shooting. Hell, he even says gamers of the GENERATION are shallow. One can look at sales this gen and see that this statement holds merit. Any popular game is going to have a large portion of the fanbase composed simpletons. I really don't see the problem in this post. Definitely isn't directed at Xbox owners. Not worth a 3 day ban IMO. Pretty questionable ban Twesterm. |
Too bad you have to explain it. The probable knee jerk reactions of reports that cause the ban only reinforces what Brendude13 said. Learn to think, read between the lines, and don't always think your console of choice isn't immune to the truth of unfavoritism. That's life.

Now first off yes the thread title is an exageration but it is also not entiirely untrue. I have alredy explained why Japan was most likely exempt. Sony Santa Monica codeveloped Warhawk
looks pretty ‘realistic’ games in terms of how it was modeled and rendered to me. Little big planet was not in development under Sony when the directive was given out at the start of the generation, how is that hard for you to understand? Killzone is Halo crossed hith medal of honor yes ince again copying a game that was sucessful on Xbox and one that was gritty and ‘realistic’ games in terms of how it was modeled and rendered. that directive came much later and was spearhedded by ex MS guys, well ex lionhead to be exact, you could ague Sony was trying to steal the idea away from MS. Yes it was influinced by what people wanted, that was being provided by MS more than Sony so Sony pushed to have more games of that type, simple as that. And all AAA SCE worldwide studios (excluding Japan as they are independantly run) from the start of the generation were instructed to make ‘realistic’ games in terms of how it was modeled and rendered games. And the fact is in the article from a quote from a Naughty Dog employee "not just at Naughty Dog but at all of Sony’s development companies at the time". |
You mean Warhawk? The rework of the 1995 game and that was already in development in 2005?
I don't know what you are trying to do by excluding Studios. The problem here is that it was generalized that all of Sony's first party studios ended up doing gritty shooters which wasn't the case.
Even if Naughty Dog says that Sony pushed to make games more realistic and that was the case in that time, what happened? Why Insomniac and Naughty Dog were the only ones that turned from Jak and Ratchet to shooters? In the end all the other Studios did not followed the trend and released games that make Sony the most diverse first party developers or all gaming today. What do I want to say with this? What we have right now from Sony's first parties are games that weren't influenced by what was selling as hot cakes in the box.
Wait, are you saying that Killzone a PS2 game was influenced by the successful Xbox360 games? I ask because that is what we are talking about here. If you want to discuss the supposed influence of Halo in Killzone that is another discussion that has nothing to do with this, but even there, apart from being a Sci-fi FPS, there is nothing else there.
