PoV: Vita Will Fail

Posted Feb 24, 2012 at 10:35AM EST by Listed in: PS Vita Tags: nintendo 3ds vs ps vita, ps vita sales, sony fails

Sony’s savior is nothing more than PSP: the sequel.

Warning: This article contains – gasp! – my opinion. If your delicate sensibilities can’t grasp reading something counter to your own beliefs, perhaps you should mosey along to something you’ll find easier to digest. Here’s a suggestion.

Read the comments on this site, and you’ll see that I’m a bona fide Sony hater. Curiously enough, I’m also an Xbox, Android and Nintendo hater, depending on the comments you read. Basically, if you ask the readers of this site, I hate everything.

Reader contention aside, it is true that I’ve never been a fan of the Sony brand. This is the result of several factors: the “quantity over quality” approach they’ve always taken towards game development, their absurd comments about the superiority of their consoles despite sales data saying otherwise, and their documented tendency to screw their playerbase.

I believe the Sony Vita will fail. Not on the scale of the Virtual Boy or Jaguar, but in the sense that it will not overtake the Nintendo 3DS, and will not extend Sony’s grasp on the handheld market far beyond what the PSP already provided. This belief comes not from my admitted distaste for Sony, but from the tepid response the device has seen since Japanese launch, the lukewarm reviews offered to the system’s launch lineup, and the unfolding clusterfucks related to the new system that indicate Sony hasn’t learned how to make a system that’s easy to use and fun to own.

Put simply, the PS Vita is too little, too late. And no matter how you feel about Sony, it’s not going to change this simple fact: Nintendo remains the king of the handheld kingdom for the foreseeable future.

Sorry Sony fanboys; it looks like you’re out of luck.

Sony Promises that Devs Like the Vita

Posted Feb 16, 2012 at 2:12PM EST by Listed in: PS Vita Tags: nintendo 3ds, ps vita, psp, Sony, virtual boy

The company is on the defensive after one developer threw the handheld under the bus.

Sony is reeling after one game creator suggested that third party developers have canceled their Vita projects and moved to the 3DS due to the handheld’s poor performance in Japan. A report in a Japanese newspaper carried the anonymous quote, which stated, “Major Japanese companies are cancelling all projects intended for Vita and are changing development to 3DS.” Sony wants you to know that this simply isn’t the case.

Scott Rohde, the senior vice president of Worldwide Studios said that while he didn’t see the specific quote, it’s not unusual to find “exaggerated” claims like that regarding untested products. He also noted that he knew of many third party devs working “feverishly” on Vita titles, and that it would be impossible for any one person to definitively say what every Vita studio may or may not be doing.

Edge magazine points out that calling the claims an “exaggeration” indicates that a few studios have indeed jumped ship, just not to the numbers the anonymous source stated. Whatever’s going on over in Japan, you can bet it will echo through the western marketplace.

Vita is just a few short days away from release and if the western launch isn’t strong, the device could be relegated to Virtual Boy territory. Right now, the Vita is being outsold by the 3DS and even the original PSP in Japan – not a good indicator of success. Sony isn’t known for being upfront with its customers, so the truth of the matter is probably somewhere between the two quotes.

We’ll just have to wait and see what happens. What do you think the fate of the Vita will be?

Modern Warfare 3 Has Spawn Problems

Posted Jan 2, 2012 at 5:13PM EST by Listed in: PS3 Tags: Infinity Ward, modern warfare 3, mw3

Gamer scores 144 kills and 4 deaths in one MW3 match, and in the process demonstrates one of the game’s biggest problems.

Look, it’s 2012. Spawn trapping – the act of locking an opposing team into one spawn area and mercilessly camping them – simply shouldn’t be possible in games anymore. Developers, by now, should know how to circumvent this problem. However, the issue seems to have slipped the mind of devs over at Infinity Ward, as evidenced by this video:

In the clip, one MW3 player, with the help of his team, manages to summon a M.O.A.B. in just 48 seconds by peeking over a wall into the enemy spawn and absolutely wrecking the other team as they respawn helplessly. It’s a cheap tactic from any point of view, but the real amazing thing is that it’s even possible in a game that supposed to be one of the best shooters ever made.

This problem is rampant in certain MW3 game modes, and the developers are going to need to find some way to repair it if they want to keep the community happy and engaged. The players in the video aren’t necessarily cheating, so the only recourse is to prevent the problem from happening in the first place.

What do you think should be done to stop matches like this from taking place?

Play Burnout Paradise for Free!

Posted Nov 16, 2011 at 6:18PM EST by Listed in: PC Gaming Tags: burnout paradise, origin

Well, not exactly. It’s free in terms of cash-money, but you’ll have to sell your soul to Origin.

If you like Burnout games but hate spending money, today is your day. A few savvy gamers at HotUKDeals have worked out how to score a copy of Burnout Paradise completely for free, with the only catch being that you have to use Origin to get it.

Here’s how the deal works: Log into your Origin account (or create a new one), run a quick search for Burnout and add Burnout Paradise to your cart. When you head to checkout, type the code “PARADISE” into the promo codes box and the game’s price will be dropped from £4.99 to £0.00. Unfortunately, this deal only seems to be active in the UK – no free games for us folks in the States.

Paradise earned rave reviews and is certainly a fan favorite, so picking the game up for free is an excellent deal. The game takes place in a fairly large virtual city, with stunt, race and other events strewn about at various intersections. Driving around to find the start of a failed challenge can be annoying, but the game has a great soundtrack and for the most part is fun to play.

Besides, if you’re getting it for free, what do you have to lose?

Exclusive: Trukatu.com’s Game Trading Revolution

Posted Oct 18, 2011 at 5:00PM EST by Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: beta, game trading, trukatu

A new service claims to help gamers find and trade the titles they love, without getting slapped by low re-sale prices. But are they for real? We sit down with the site’s founders, Rob and Shawn McClellan, to find out.

If you've ever tried to trade-in a used game at a brick and mortar retailer, you probably know the sting of the brutal price drop. A game you bought yesterday for full price is somehow only worth half that today, but will unsurprisingly be re-sold close to the original price.

It’s frustrating, but for the most part there wasn’t much gamers could do. Now, one site is claiming to have the solution to this problem, in the form of targeted gamer-to-gamer trading. This site is Trukatu.com, and I shot a few questions to the company’s founders to find out what makes this service so different from GameFly or other trade-in services.

Here’s the full interview, so you can decide for yourself:

What is Trukatu.com?

Trukatu.com is the new revolution in video game trading.

How does Trukatu differ from existing services like GameFly?

Unlike game rental services, once you receive your new game through Trukatu, you OWN it.

We differ from other online trading services in that we don’t convert your games to points or virtual currency. Trades are also completely anonymous between users because everything is mailed directly to Trukatu, where the games are checked for quality. We even provide postage-paid mailers so there’s no shipping costs to users whatsoever.

How does the trade-in system work?

Instead of points or credits, you receive GAMES for your games. After building a game library, users are offered trades and are given the opportunity to accept, modify or deny each one. Once a trade is accepted, users mail in their games to be verified and swapped. Our mailers are designed to function as a 2-way mailer. After you complete your first trade and receive your new game, you will already have a return mailer in your possession for your NEXT TRADE.

What types of games can participants expect to find? New releases? Older titles?

Trukatu is tailored to all levels of gamers; from basic gamers who just want to trade in old games they no longer play, to the ultimate power gamer who wants a new challenge every week. Our selection is based on our gamers’ libraries, and includes games for PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii, Xbox, and Xbox360.

How does Trukatu go about matching trade offers?

Users create a library of games they have and games they want using a comprehensive search function with quick and easy browsing. Trukatu continuously compares these libraries to form trade matches. Users can also initiate direct trades to other users, where you could offer a couple of your games for that amazing new one someone else has already mastered.

How is your subscription plan built (ie, tiers like Xbox Live gold, or trade limitations)?

During beta, users will pay $10 for each accepted trade. Later, we will also offer monthly recurring subscription plans, lowering the cost per trade. Offering these different plans allows Trukatu to cater to all types of gamers.

Who are you, and what is your experience in the industry?

We are two brothers from Northwest Ohio with a passion for gaming. I am an IT professional and self-proclaimed video game nerd. I also love programming (Java, C#, C++, HTML/PHP/Javascript) and I've even published a Nintendo DS game on QJ.net titled KhetDS many years ago. My brother, Shawn, has a background in banking and business finance with years of management experience. I am the IT guy and he is the backbone of the business. There has always been a constant sibling rivalry between us since I’m the “younger and smarter” brother but that rivalry helps us balance the creativity and experience within Trukatu.

What led you to create Trukatu?

Trukatu came together in late 2010 with the idea to finally put gamers in control by drastically changing the way video games are traded. The concept was designed we were tired of paying high costs for used games only to turn around and sell them back for just pennies on the dollar. We wanted to put the gamer in control by creating a place where they could trade video games without the hassle and high cost associated with retail game trading today.

How does the inspection process work?

When games arrive at Trukatu, they are individually inspected, ensuring that they are the correct games, and they are in good working condition. Then the swap is made and the games are sent off to their new owners.

What safety mechanisms are in place for members?

We act as the middle-man. By sending all games to Trukatu, no private information is shared between users, and game quality is always guaranteed.

The Trukatu Beta is still open, so jump in and let us know what you think. If done right, this could be the service we gamers have been waiting for.
