Itagaki hasn't had a good next-gen experience:

1) DOA4 doesn't live up to graphical expectations, said to look like DOAX in hi-res.

2) DOAX2 craps spectacularly. The DOA movie bombs as well.

3) Itagaki is sued for sexual harrassment.

4) His protege manages to outdo him with Ninja Gaiden Sigma on PS3.

5) He can't gloat to have the best DEFINITIVE fighter on the Xbox360 because VF5 is now multiplatform.

6) He can't gloat to have the best DEFINITIVE action game on the Xbox360 because DMC4 is now multiplatform.


The guy just can't catch a break. :lol

1/3rd trolling, 1/3rd spin, 1/3rd meltdown..nice.

 

[Kiljaro]

Woke up an hour ago and just now started surfing the web. Hit up Gamespot and checked their news section. Came here immediately to check out the aftermath. GAF does not disappoint. :lol :lol :lol

 

[Kiriku]

So the game will be released simultaneously for 360 and PS3? Then I assume the game isn't being ported, but rather developed for both 360 and PS3 at the same time? Is there some kind of middleware deal going on?

Anyway, I think Capcom has some nice business sense for doing this. Although I'm wondering to what extent they'll be going with this strategy, ie if it's clear that a game doesn't have much potential to sell on one platform, will they still release it?

 

[Pureauthor]

Weren't you the one who was saying I should be banned from this thread cuz I went offtopic?

Wrong thread, bucko.

 

[Dr_Cogent]

You should head over to the DMC4 thread and check out all the crow being served to people who said similar things about this franchise. Publishers and developers exist to make games that make money. Sure, Kojima may be in it for the art, but he still has to answer, and ultimately cater, to the wishes of his employer, and Konami isn't going to burn cash for long so Kojima-san doesn't have to use sound compression.

Not saying MGS4 is going multiplat, but yeah, if it isn't, it has nothing to do with disc space or sound compression.

I have high confidence MGS4 will be on the 360 eventually.

Money is what makes the world go round and all!

its more like itagaki makes a great game, makes a fun game, takes a break and humps his secretaries to oblivion, then goes back to make some more great games.


if and when you get your hands on a ninja gaiden game (sigma I guess for you), you will realise then..
you'd be a fool to say stuff like "protege outperforms itagaki" etc.

 

[jmdajr]

it might take awhile..

but I'll have plenty of games to keep me busy until the time comes for mgs4/360

 

[neptunes]

if anything, this will push team ninja to polish their games even more.

he doesn't hump them, he just puts his fingers in their mouths.
...which is infinitely creepier

I believe DMC4 uses the same engine as Lost Planet and Dead Rising, with further advancement of course. I remember something about them changing so that the PC would be their lead development platform for now, to make porting easier. But maybe they really meant 360, since DMC4 doesn't seem to be coming out on PC at the same time, and their PC ports are always really late and awful.

 

[MPW]

lmao, this thread > all. :lol

 

[typhonsentra]

So I finally get around to looking through this thread and Cntrl+F search for "Banned" on every page. :lol

It went exactly the way I predicted. Really, I'm amazed at how well behaved the Sony crowd was. Only one or two guys from that camp banned so far.

I actually have and played Ninja Gaiden (original) and Black plus I am more hardcore about the NG series than most of you poser fans. Also I don't think there is anything outrageous about saying that DOA is NOT definitively better than VF as well as the other stuff I said. It's just funny to see the usual suspects react to the post (XSamu lol). :lol :lol :lol

I am just having fun in a fun thread that's all.

 

[hyonoid]

same release day

ps3 the war is over

i wait that the end not the same of Dreamcast.

 

[Arsenal]

Wow...

 

[XSamu]

Uhu, sure you are.

I know it isn't, but you were commenting about the gfx, and I gave you the reason.

Yeah your having fun alright...

 

[Dahbomb]

Uhu, sure you are.

WTF is that supposed to mean?

 

[nubbe]

The one thing I'm concerned about with DMC4 on the 360 is the frame rate.
Capcom's games so far have been 30 fps and if i recall correct their view during a conference of reaching 60 fps on the 360 weren't very possetive.

 

[Razoric]

How the **** is this 38 pages long? People are surprised by this?

 

[Dr_Cogent]

How the **** is this 38 pages long? People are surprised by this?

38 pages says yes.

I wasn't surprised. I am just elated. The crazy crying from the Sony die hards makes it even better too.

They will reach it on the 360. DMC4 isn't as demanding as LP IMO.

 

[Dahbomb]

Not surprising = DMC4 coming to 360.

Surprising (aka "megaton) = DMC4 coming to 360 on SAME day as PS3.

 

[{Mike}]

The PS3 version will probably have more features

 

[Xamdou]

Yeap megaton indeed, people can take those "port" and extra features spin out the window

 

[Dr_Cogent]

Actually, it probably won't since I'm betting I am right and the 360 version has been in development the whole time anyhow. Capcom just never said anything about it on Sony's behalf.

You don't have a simultaneous release of a game like this unless development was being done in tandem for both platforms.

 

[qcf x2]

1) DOA4 doesn't live up to graphical expectations, said to look like DOAX in hi-res.

2) DOAX2 craps spectacularly. The DOA movie bombs as well.

4) His protege manages to outdo him with Ninja Gaiden Sigma on PS3.

5) He can't gloat to have the best DEFINITIVE fighter on the Xbox360 because VF5 is now multiplatform.

The guy just can't catch a break. :lol

1.) Have you ever played DoA4? IMO it looks every bit as good as VF5.

2.) DoAX2 was his pet project and he did not want the DoA movie to happen. He wanted and had nothing to do with it.

3.) Nothing to do with next-gen. Fails to support your argument.

4.) Sigma isn't released yet, but tell me how his protege outdid him? NG2 will almost undoubtedly be significantly better.

5.) So what?

6.) By most accounts, Ninja Gaiden >>> DMC.

If anything it may have started on the 360, as IIRC it uses the same engine as Dead Rising and Lost Planet.

No,GAF users are taking the chance to stealth troll.

Like Rumble, Custom Soundtracks, and Achievements previously mentioned in this thread, right?

 

[krypt0nian]

hilarity evolved.

Bodies everywhere too. Almost everyone who did a "I'm posting in a...." message got banned. Phoenix Dark is the most prominent casualty so far.

 

[beelzebozo]

shake sixaxis to wipe away tears.
real-time system changing.

 

[DarknessTear]

Rumble sounds possible, custom soundtracks is ****ing pointless, achievements.. probably not since Home definitely won't be out by then.

Sorry, but you don't have a flying clue how NG2 will compare to sigma, so to say your reasoning is premature is an understatement.

I think he's referring to DOA4/DOAX2 vs NGS.

But I can't read his mind so I dunno.

 

[Pureauthor]

6.) By most accounts, Ninja Gaiden >>> DMC.

LOL no

 

[gogogow]

If anything it may have started on the 360, as IIRC it uses the same engine as Dead Rising and Lost Planet.

It's true, it's using the Framework engine, but I don't think it started on the 360 since the first playable demo was on the PS3, unlike Assassin's Creed and Mercenaries, announced as PS3 exclusive, but the first playable demo they showed was the Xbox 360 version.

 

[Morbid Angel]

LOL no

LOL yes

Different people, different opinions and all that.

 

[Patrickula]

...custom soundtracks is ****ing pointless...

Have you heard the music in DMC3 :lol

 

[DarknessTear]

LOL no

LOL yes. I'd hate to make this argument go much further but NG wins in terms of gameplay. NG's gameplay is based on you, DMC's gameplay is based on what it can throw at you. In other words, NG is AI based awesomeness and if you suck it's your own problem and if you train well enough you'll become good enough to beat the game.

DMC is just.. enemies fly at you.

Have you heard the music in DMC3 :lol

Do you have a point?

 

[veinkman]

I dont care either but the 360 being supply constrained doesnt matter the fact still remains that 4 months in the PS3 is outselling what the 360 did in the same time span without Europe.

Im just saying.

:lol
You guys spinning and grasping for straws is getting quite sad now.

 

[Defuser]

6.) By most accounts, Ninja Gaiden >>> DMC.

Do you have a point?

Apparently somebody never play dante must die mode

 

[{Mike}]

How did you come to that conclusion? :lol

PS3 has HOME. So players across the world will be able to gain some kind of trophy for DMC 4. Can a Xbox 360 player say the same?

 

[DarknessTear]

Apparently somebody never play dante must die mode

Yes, because it takes until Dante Must Die mode to make the game skill based? Jesus christ.

PS3 has HOME. So players across the world will be able to gain some kind of trophy for DMC 4. Can a Xbox 360 player say the same?

That is, if Home is even out by then.

 

[beelzebozo]

no one--not even the most pathetic--is going to make their purchasing decisions based on a fictional trophy. there may be tons of reasons to buy the game on ps3 and not x360, but some congregated polygons that look like dante's head resting inside the world cup is not one of them.

 

[xsarien]

Oh, wow.
You're not even trying, are you?

 

[Dahbomb]

You are assuming DMC4 comes after Home and actually takes advantage of it. I hate to break it to you but it might not actually happen.

LOL yes. I'd hate to make this argument go much further but NG wins in terms of gameplay. NG's gameplay is based on you, DMC's gameplay is based on what it can throw at you. In other words, NG is AI based awesomeness and if you suck it's your own problem and if you train well enough you'll become good enough to beat the game.

DMC is just.. enemies fly at you.

NG doesn't actually "win" in terms of game play when compared to DMC3 and most of what you said is highly inaccurate, especially for DMC. I will just leave it at that before this argument goes any further than that. There is enough shenanigans going around this thread to start a "NG vs DMC" argument.

 

[DarknessTear]

What the **** is the point in comparing the two when there's no information on the 360 version anyway? Honestly, any real gamer on this forum is going to own all 3 consoles anyway.

Well you could at least explain it to me then.

I was thinking a Rebellion sword replica for HOME

Okay, I'll stop now. My Photobucket account is going to crap out at any minute now...
