Poor PS3 Sales Means Smaller Losses

"Actually, because the number of units sold was not as high as we hoped, the loss was better than our original expectation," Quotes from Sony’s CFO Nobuyuki Oneda.

I saw the video. Looks pretty weak right now.

The concept is flawed from the start, IMO. Why make a fighting game with only one fighting style? This way lies boredom.

Boastful.

First sign of fail.

 oops. Damn no editing capability of titles. :(  -1 vgchartz.



Well... atleast they picked the right martial art.

Still.... eh.



Gah! It's not going to teach you martial arts because martial arts is all about movements within your body. I shift my weight and rotate my hips to get the power for a punch, I don't just throw a punch out there. You may get a pale shadow of martial arts, but not anything close to the real thing. I'd liken it to Guitar Hero teaching you to play guitar.

edit: ohh....that martial art....hmm.....guess I retract my statement since I don't know enough about that kind of martial art to comment.
