Some quotes from Hiroshi Yamauchi

I think the game industry is maturing in different ways to those I imagined
Gamers don’t just want beautiful graphics, sounds and epic stories
We cannot guarantee interesting and fun games just by using better technology and increasing the functions of the machines
[People who play RPGs are] “depressed gamers who like to sit alone in their dark rooms and play slow games.”
I have been saying this for some time, but customers are not interested in grand games with higher-quality graphics and sound and epic stories. Only people who do not know the video game business would advocate the release of next-generation machines when people are not interested in cutting-edge technologies

Playstation Phone

Posted onAuthorTruXter

Let’s say “educated” rumor of the Playstation phone, will have android on it. And from the picture it looks as if the Playstation phone will use GSM.
from Mashable
I hope they modified the Android o/s to look more like playstation’s o/s. Because well, the ps o/s looks cool.
Looks like the Sony Playstation phone will be using the Ericsson manufacturing (owned by Sony).

I would have preferred qwerty keyboard with w-a-s-d Steering and i-j-k-l throttling and damper.

If this is the path for the Playstation Portable PSP, then it’s pretty much over for all competitors, phone wise, hand held gaming systems, Media players and anything in between or remotely close.
Only possible competitor would be Nintendo Ds from iphone or rim.
1 gig processor
512 mb ram
1gig of storage.
Should play GTAIII well and all of the GTA stories.
Maybe vice city. surely vice city stories, since the psp played liberty city and vice city stories on a much wimpier processor.
The psp phone (yeah I called it a PSP phone…) will easily play movies in pretty high resolution. Considering my G1 does pretty good and my PSP does pretty well.

GTa China Town Wars Screenshots

Well the images look really good.

Very Nintendoish and very gta-gtaii looking but better.

Looks like rockstar games is really going back to their roots and fixing up the mess ups. Maybe we will see some use of GTAiii or Liberty City Stories or Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories  Make a port to the wii.

Oh yeah here are the screen shots

And More Screen Shots

All the things that can come from this, if nintendo flips out.

The Next Release of Grand Theft Auto

Posted onAuthorTruXter4 Comments

Rockstar Games put up a new page

New page

It looks like the pc version of any grand theft auto, has once again been put on the back burner. It looks like we just might not ever see grand theft auto come to the personal computer ever again.

A fourth game to come to a portable gaming system, is the third portable game to be created and not be ported to pc since GTA San Andreas. It is so far the fifth game to have been created to not be made for pc gaming.
As of now the games to not be moved to pc are as listed. This includes portable and full blown console games.
1. gta advanced
2. Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories
3. Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories
4. Grand Theft Auto GTAIV
5. Grand Theft Auto China Town Wars

I am assuming they are going to use the china town section of liberty city from GtaIII and Liberty City Stories. If this happens, can we see a port coming to Nintendo Wii? can we see a few Gta Rockstar grand theft auto games coming to the Nintendo Wii soon? I think we can.
