My complaint with RE5 is the real half ass PS3 port. I loaded up the demo on 360 and PS3 and switched between sources to view. The 360 one has slightly better textures but its a lot smoother image. The PS3 version has plenty aliasing compared to the 360. It was almost shocking how much better the 360 one looked.

The other issue is no sixaxis support in the PS3. While I personally think for the most part the sixaxis is gimmicky when a zombie holds you it makes more sense to shake the controller than to wiggle the L stick.

Inviting a friend online felt like a chore on both systems.

Well he's entitled to his opinion but I personally loved the demo.

When I first played the demo on 360 the thought never even occurred to me that I couldn't aim and shoot. It wasn't until the massive uproar from the internet that I noticed it. It just feels right when I'm playing. Now there are a number of reasons why they cant add run and gun

1. There are already endless run and gun games out there. A change in style very now and then is good.
2. The game would be too easy. The zombies stumble towards you, dont have guns, rarely shoot arrows or pelt weapons. It would be way too easy to wipe them out.
3. Changing the control to shoot and move would basically be putting a FPS control over a third person camera. Since Japan is one of Resident Evil biggest bases and they hate FPS in Japan it wouldn't be a smart financial move.

I get the feeling that most of the people bitching about this game have never played a RE title before 4. They dunno what real pain is

...i played it....only thing fun about it is co op...but thats probably because this is the only coop game i've experienced in a while.

TheApprentice · « **Reply #1526 on:** February 04, 2009, 01:10:46 AM »

^i did like the co-op...no doubt about that.

The game is pretty good....But having played only run and gun shooters for pretty much ever...
Its a great culture shock for me.
It really really does not make sense that you can't move and shoot.
Its especially dumb when you have a swarm of enemies around you and running to you and you have to stop in the middle of the field to lay a few shots.

But thats my opinion...I respect the RE franchise and its fan base.
Its good stuff...probably not for me though

PS3 Game Sharing?

Looking to get a PS3 soon and was surprised that Sony allows this. Could be a good way to try out titles I might not have otherwise downloaded....

Never knew bout this for PS3 gotta get with the program :p

TheApprentice · « **Reply #1531 on:** February 04, 2009, 06:42:44 PM »

yep once you have a friend who is willing to share his/her account info with you, you can download the stuff they have downloaded via their download list.
Up to 5 ps3's though, 5 inclusive of yours.
On every download that supports it, in the info section it says you can download on up to 5 activated ps3's, that is ps3's you setup/activated your account on.

Interesting argument Sony brings, pay for games, not Xbox Live.

http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2009/02/sony-wants-you-to-buy-games-not-xbox-live.ars

During CES, Sony gave press the argument that the PS3 was actually a great deal... considering all the features that came with the system. That only works if you want those features, and a $400 system is a hard sell even if it comes with an Eva(n?) Longoria love-doll. Sony has now made a second argument that makes much more sense: look at what you can buy for the cost of Xbox Live.

Microsoft's online service costs $50 a year, if you don't find a card on sale, and Sony wants to show you what you could be buying with that money if you were online with your PS3. You have to give it to them: $50 on the PlayStation Network gets you some pretty great stuff.
Ben Kuchera

"Rather than paying a $50 subscription fee that competitors charge for on-line services, PlayStation Network users could put that money towards a variety of content," the company claims. What could you get?

* PAIN ($9.99)
* Elefunk ($4.99)
* Guitar Hero Classic Rock Track ($6.25)
* LittleBigPlanet™ Metal Gear Solid® - Level Kit ($5.99)
* Episode of Afro Samurai | Season 1 ($1.99)
* The Dark Knight Movie ($14.99)
* Samurai Sword Rack, Diesel Tiamallo Blue Hooded Top, Ligne Roset Alster Chair for PlayStation Home ($4.47)

-or-

* Super Street Fighter® II Turbo HD Remix ($14.99)
* Burnout™ Paradise (Full Retail Game) ($19.99)
* The Hoff Character for PAIN ($1.99)
* LittleBigPlanet™ Ryu of Street Fighter® II ($1.99)
* Robot Trooper and Basketball Boots for PlayStation Home ($.98)
* Savage Moon ($9.99)

I'd get rid of the PlayStation Home stuff and slam Everyday Shooter on one of those lists, and I could probably make some other changes, but it's still a compelling argument. Sony doesn't offer as much as Xbox Live does, and maybe it never will, but the fact is the service is free. You don't have to pay to play PS3 games online, and you could put that $50 to better use actually buying games.

Even with an expensive system, this is a good talking point. Why not buy games instead of a service?

read dat article 2day interesting indeed, i wonder when sony catches up will they still charge for XBL
sony catchin cud b a win for both sides since it wud force M$ hand an if they do make XBL free 360 ppl cud only b happy

http://secondstorygamer.com/2009/02/blockbuster-ps3-inevitable/
found this article online interesting read

woodyear99 · « **Reply #1535 on:** February 11, 2009, 07:33:47 PM »

Yeah but remember this never happened during the ps2 / xbox 1 days.

ViCe · « **Reply #1536 on:** February 11, 2009, 11:08:45 PM »

if u talkin bout sony catchin up then dat was ps2 days
PSN is not dat far away from XBL at the moment only missing a few features

http://www.hiphopgamershow.com/?p=3378
while this guy has a point, packing d official mic in would cost sony more money an puttin in a "cheap" one isnt sonys style since dey products are always quality.
But i do agree dat more ppl on PSN shud invest in a mic since most of d times is me & d clan talkin an everyone else dead silent.

woodyear99 · « **Reply #1537 on:** February 11, 2009, 11:49:49 PM »

I was referring to the fact that Xbox Live did not change to free during the xbox 1 cycle but then again they probably planned to continue charging on xbox 360 thus no reason to make it free, especially since they got that 1 year headstart.

Yeah I was actually thinking about that tonight while playing bad company, when playing with random people it would be so much more fun if people actually used their mics and communicated sigh...
