even 343i is not just developing Halo 4 now(and Halo4's mp already finished),how can the article think Vancouver is helping 343i...and 343i already have 200+(maybe 300 now) employee

 

btw,"another shooter" is pretty funny,how many live shooter ip is MS foucs now?one,Halo,even include Gears,it just 2

how many sony have?4 at least,and i never saw anyone say same thing to sony


Yeah but that one shooter game takes almost 100% of their focus. Halo 4 is almost the only retail game that gamers can come up with that is first party(except for all the kinect shit). Compare that with all the games releasing from Sony this year in all those different genre's it is hard to call it an shooter box.  

a add-on you don't like doesn't mean it's shit

maybe you can go back to N4G first and find some crazy、24 hour on call haters to blame me,they just like you and some peoples,always call himself "hardcore/real/true/whatever" gamer,but more like controllerism guy

Sorry that I am interested in good games and don't blindly defend games as kinect star wars.

you're talking kinect itself,not kinect star wars

i'm not blindly defend,but you're blindly hate

You mean Twisted Metal = Shooter, StarHawk = Shooter...

What else is Sony launching this year btw ? Last Guardian ? No. Last of Us ? Doubtfull. God of War Ascension ? Spring 2013.

Meanwhile at Xbox, Witcher 2 already dropped, Halo 4 and Forza Horizon will follow. ONE shooter.

Witcher is third party and would not be surprised if that also would end up one day on PS3.    Sony may have more shooters but they also have a lot more other genre's...  Ton of JRPG's releasing for PS3. Sly 4 platformer, that brawl game not sure what genre that is but for sure not shooter and a lot of other stuff... 

you mean a game already released at 2010 in Japan?

Hopefully if it's a MP only shooter they'll make some sort of MAG that's actually good.

What's wrong with mag?



Good concept, but the game wasn't all that it could be by a long shot. I think next-gen this could be done a lot better also.



It's too bad Sony's "exclusives" are already out for Nintendo. Either way, I imagine that whatever this is, it'll be filling in Gears of Wars space on the exclusive list. People can argue about lack of variety all they want but Microsoft is about business and when 6 of the top 10 games played on Live right now are shooters, it seems smart to produce more of what sells.

Blindly hate?   http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=131355  I own Kinect and when this pictures are old I got myself my Kinect games and except for Child of Eden they are rather boring experiences..Like most of the people who defended Kinect the last year I gave up on Kinect and its games. 



 

Vancouver must be a hell out of a city!

maybe, but publishers only care about the tax breaks and other incentives the government and regional councils give to game devs.
