How Much Are You Willing To Spend On Software Next Gen?

Wed, 23 Nov 2011 23:46:40 +0000

With the growing rumors implying that Sony’s and Microsoft’s next consoles may being revealed within the next year or so, I’m beginning to wonder just what it will cost to purchase software on these new systems. The price for video games has increased with the introduction of every new home console over the years. Back in the day games for the PS1 cost $40, the price for PS2 titles increased to $50 and today a brand new PS3 game will set you back $60. See the trend? Assuming the price for a new console game will set you back $70 will gamers finally ask how much is too much? If the next gen gaming experience is anything like what we’re seeing today – single player campaigns only lasting 6-8 hours, extra content that could easily fit in the game being offered later as paid dlc, online passes- will it be worth it? The first next generation machine we actually know will release in 2012, the Nintendo Wii U, may give us an idea on what we can expect from the future of software pricing. Games on the Nintendo Wii are usually priced at $50, this includes AAA titles like the newly released Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. In comparison a big AAA title on either the PS3 or 360 will set you back $60. The $10 difference is partially due to the fact that the Wii doesn’t offer the same kind of high definition graphics that the PS3 and 360 does. What does this have to do with the Wii U? doesn’t According to reports the Wii U is expected to be as powerful as current HD systems which could indicate that software for the console will cost more than its predecessor. If it does this could be a good preview of just how much more we’ll be paying for games on the PS4 and next Xbox. On the other hand if you listen to the analysts who assume that the digital age, made popular by the iPhone, Kindle and other similar devices, will soon replace disc format in home consoles then perhaps that may offset the cost of video game software. But the probability of that happening is unclear at this point since my crystal ball is still in the shop. We do know that Nintendo won’t be relying on digital downloads as the sole format in the Wii U and I’m going to make the bold prediction ( without my crystal ball ) that neither Sony nor Microsoft plans to ditch the disc based format in their next systems. So come 2013 or 2014 when the next big gaming machine launches, how much will you be willing to spend on video games?

Nintendo to Sony: It’s on like Donkey Kong

Thu, 28 Jul 2011 17:11:14 +0000

Nintendo have realized that the price they set for the 3DS along with the really “not there” launch lineup were huuuuuuuuuuge factors for the system not selling as much as was expected from the Nintendo DS successor (the best selling portable of all times). About 720,000 3DS units were sold from April to June 2011… worldwide. That is NOT great news for Nintendo investors (they’re sorta mad) and with the Vita from Sony picking up several extra stops on the hype train route AND being priced at a “boy will Sony lose money per unit”$249.99 launch price for the Wi-Fi only model … what can Nintendo do? How about bringing the price down from $250 into a more consumer friendly $169.99 and giving early consumers a GREAT “thank you” by offering them lots of free NES/GBA games for their 3DS instead of being a douche and saying “though luck” to early adopters? But free games sounds like “too good to be true” as they will probably be non-sellers and the like from the early NES/GBA launch lineup, right? Noooope., the free TWENTY games will include the following: The 10 NES games include the following: – Super Mario Bros. – Donkey Kong Jr. – Balloon Fight – Ice Climber – The Legend of Zelda – And five others The 10 GBA games include these: – Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario Advance 3 – Mario Kart: Super Circuit – Metroid Fusion – WarioWare Inc: Mega Microgame$ – Mario vs Donkey Kong – And five others Price cut is effective on August 12 and the free NES games will be rolled out on early september and then the free GBA will follow. What is even MORE interesting is that only the NES games have been confirmer for a release on the 3DS VC on a later date as the GBA ones will remain exclusive to early adopters. So, what’s your opinion on this? Will Sony do a pre-release price cut to be closer to Nintendo’s new retail number? Will3DS sales finally pick up? What of consumer trust towards the Wii U which releases in early 2012? As for me, I’ll be able to get a 3DS this christmas after all! Thanks to Tiny Cartridge for all the info!

Jack Tretton Talks About PlayStation 4

Mon, 20 Jun 2011 21:18:16 +0000

Jack Tretton is the president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment America, for those of you who may not be familiar with his name. During the E3 2011 expo, Mr. Tretton, along with Kaz Hirai, talked about upcoming titles such as Uncharted 3 and Resistance 3. They also presented the PlayStation Vita to the world. In an interview with Forbes, Jack Tretton discusses how he and his company are not afraid of competition and are ready to back Vita throughout. Here is an excerpt from the interview. When will you start talking about the PlayStation 4? . PlayStation 3 is really just hitting its stride. And technologically, I don’t think it’s possible to provide any advancement beyond what we have. What we’ve seen from the competition is trying to add features that already exist in PlayStation 3. We invested heavily in that, we rolled a very heavy rock up a steep hill, through the launch period. But now I think that all pays off, and we’ve got a long run way behind it. So, I wouldn’t look for any discussion of a next generation PlayStation for quite some time. . I think there’s ground to be carved out for everybody. But I didn’t see anything about Nintendo’s announcement that said ‘Oh, we’d better get working on rolling out a new PlayStation here pretty soon.’ . Our attitude is kind of ‘welcome to the party.’ If you’re looking at being a multimedia entertainment device, if you’re looking at high def gaming, that was 2006 for us. Rest of the story here .

PS3 Passes Xbox 360 in Worldwide Active Units LTD According to Analysts

Thu, 31 Mar 2011 21:00:19 +0000

Many people claimed it was coming, many argued in contradiction, but the time has finally come, according to GamaSutra . PS3 has finally outsold the 360 worldwide in LTD sales, despite the 360′s 10 million unit lead. Now, this should not be used or touted as a bragging aspect, as PS3 still falls short on software sales vs the Xbox 360, and there is plenty of room in the world for both systems. However it still is an amazing feat, so lets hope for many more years to come. “Although the Xbox 360 leads the PlayStation 3 in the U.S., the global picture shows Microsoft’s console has lost ground to Sony’s as of the end of 2010, says a new report from data firm Strategy Analytics. – According to the company’s data, the Nintendo Wii continues to enjoy the world’s largest install base with 75.5 million active units worldwide, but the active install base of PS3s reached 43.4 million at the close of 2010 versus Xbox 360′s 42.9. – Strategy Analytics says that Xbox 360′s relative weakness in Europe and Asia “acts as a drag on its global performance,” even factoring in the boost the console saw from the launch of the Kinect motion-sensing peripheral. – Just today, GameSited data from IDG that showed that while the Xbox 360 still led the PS3 in the U.S. by 10 million units, Sony’s console retailed a slightly bigger share of the European audience, with 14.7 million units to the Xbox 360′s 13.7 million units. – “While the Kinect peripheral has given a boost to Microsoft’s Xbox 360 strategy, the console’s performance outside of the U.S. continues to disappoint,” says Strategy Analytics’ Digital Consumer Practice analyst Jia Wu, who authored the report. – “Global demand foy’s PS3 has exceeded that of the Xbox 360 in each of the past two years, and we expect that to continue over the coming years,” Wu adds, recommending Microsoft “continue[s] to innovate around its motion sensor technology, which will become increasingly relevant in the smart home era.” – The report predicts that Xbox 360 will grow its global sales by 13.7 million by the end of this year, while PS3 will also expand to 15.7 million units. The Wii, conversely, is expected to continue declining (a contraction on which Gamasutra analyst Matt Matthews says the Xbox 360 can capitalize). – Strategy Analytics says Wii’s sales will fall by just over 10 million units over the year, leaving it in third place in hardware rankings — and making it an opportune time for Nintendo to “launch a Wii successor within the next 12 months.”

Comparing the Nintendo 3DS to Sony’s 3D Efforts

Wed, 29 Sep 2010 19:13:18 +0000

Before anyone decides to remind me this is PS3Blog.net (look, it takes you back to the home page!) the reason I’m posting this, in the main page no less, is because of how we can compare Nintendo’s effort to Sony’s 3D push for home entertainment thanks to 3D Blu-ray movies as well as the firmware released for the 3D enabled games available at the moment and in the near future for the PS3. Now with that out of the way, let’s consider what the 3DS has to offer at launch and how Sony has decided to price and market their 3D interest in new technology. The 3DS will launch in Japan on February 26, 2011 at a retail price of 25,000 Yen. The release falls in place with what Nintendo had promised it’s shareholders (a release before the end of the fiscal year which concludes on March 31) but at first the price might seem a bit high (at the exchange rate, as of this writing, it is the equivalent of $298.95). To put into perspective, 25,000 Yen was the price point for the Wii when it was set to launch in Japan but when the Wii released in the US the price got adjusted to $249.99 which could mean that the 3DS might be priced accordingly when it makes it’s retail showing. No info was given for Europe and the Americas other than the fact we should wait for said data to come at a later date. IGN said last week that it had acquired from a reliable source the final hardware specs for the 3DS. Nowadays IGN has fallen from grace with the gaming community but the specs do seem to be close to what developers have been commenting on: Two 266MHz ARM11 CPUs A 133MHz GPU 4MBs of dedicated VRAM 64MBs of RAM 1.5GBs of flash storage Several blogs and forums have already teared down these specs to pieces saying that they’re not that great and that Apple’s iPhone 4 has better specs than this but what we also need to remember is that the iPhone and other new multitask phones take a huge performance hit thanks to the OS that need to be running at all time so you can still get a call when playing a game, watching a movie, listening to music or viewing pictures. The 3DS is a gaming handheld first and a movie, music and picture player second and thus these specs are more than favorable for the new hardware. If you doubt that it is a graphical powerhouse the following might make you a believer: Resident Evil: The Mercenaries for 3DS with Worldwide Online Multiplayer and Co-Op Here’s the trailer for Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition so you can get an idea of what it can do. For 25,000 Yen those that purchase a 3DS will get the handheld, an AC adapter, a charger stand, a telescopic Nintendo 3DS stylus-pen, a 2GB SD card and six augmented reality cards (they work in a similar fashion as the ones you use to play Eye of Judgment). The next trailer shows some of the menus and features of the 3DS: Now that you’ve seen that, let’s go into Sony’s court. If you want 3D games and 3D movies you first need a 3D enabled TV. There are several brands you can buy but for this article let’s focus on the Sony branded ones and several sizes and configurations are available. I think this specific bundle is the best entry point for the technology. You get a 40″ LED 3D TV, two pairs of glasses and a special 3D TV Transmitter so you can “synchronise the frame rate of the TV with the shutter speed of the glasses”. Price is set at $1,698, already almost 6 times the price of the 3DS which doesn’t use glasses for 3D. A family usually has at least one kid in the house but the average one has two so you might need an extra pair of glasses for your new TV. You can go with a single pair at the special Amazon price of $99 per glasses or spring for the deluxe set that includes two pairs of glasses and the Alice in Wonderland 3D Blu-ray Movie for the Amazon price of $268.99 versus the original $399.99 retail price. Again, other configurations are available but comparing all of them would take forever. Some PS3 games are getting updates so they display in 3D and Sony is even giving away 3D PSN games when you buy select 3D TVs so the support for us gamers is slowly showing. I look forward to what Team Ico can do with 3D in the ICO/SotC Collection as well as what is being worked on for the Sly Cooper Collection but so far 3D hasn’t matured enough to make the investment a solid one. The current selection of truly 3D movies geared at the new TV sets is reduced to Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, Monster House, Alice in Wonderland, Open Season and Monster vs Aliens to name a few (the list is sure to grow soon as Avatar is a given for the format). Sony’s bet for 3D is a high-entry one at the moment and it still needs to convince several consumers to jump from DVD to Blu-ray, let alone from DVD to a new 3D TV, a 3D enabled Blu-ray player (a PS3 will do just fine but most don’t know it). It will be interesting to see how the public responds to the “no-glasses” 3DS release worldwide and how Sony is tinkering around with their own 3D technology to make it more user friendly and available at a mass-appeal price. So, are you interested in 3D? Will you buy a 3D TV? What do you think about the 3DS?

PlayStation Store Global Update (09/05-09/11)

Fri, 10 Sep 2010 04:17:56 +0000

Highlights Alright, another late one! Last time I did this was back in June. Sorry again folks. As far as this week’s highlights go, if you’re a PS+ member, I definitely recommend the Blast-Off mini. There are actually quite a few minis that are really good, but looking at the poll numbers thus far, people seem to be overwhelmingly ignoring them. Qore was also released, but I’ve yet to check that out (I do have it downloaded, though). TerRover was released, but has been met with some mediocre reviews due to it’s unforgiving nature (a lot of frustration). There is a demo for that if you want to try it out (as well as 3 other titles). Jimmy’s Vendetta is available for Mafia II, Snoop Dogg has some tracks on Rock Band (wtf?), Witch Hunt DLC for Drag Age: Origins can be purchased, and there’s a decent sized collection of themes and wallpapers available as well. War for Cybertron also has a new character and map pack. There really wasn’t that much this week.
