Nakago and Miyamoto used to share a bed on business trips

Tezuka: Devil World was released in October 1984…

Nakago: And Excitebike was released in November. As Excitebike was being developed in Tokyo, I went on a lot of business trips there together with Miyamoto-san and we'd often stay over in a hotel. That was right at the start of the bubble economy and there were times when it would be really hard to secure a hotel room. There were even times when we slept in the same bed.

Iwata: …What!? (laughs)

All: (laughter)

Please allow me to explain. It was a long night of work. We had gone out for Sake and Karaoke. Nothing happened, I swear. Please don't tell Robio!

Don't sweat it Shigs, happens to me ALL the time...  

In the story about 1 analyst saying EA will drop Tiger there is a box shot.  What are those white splotches in the bottom corner?

What platform is that for? PS2? XB? PSP?

XBLA

I can't wait to play through it again with the updated visuals. It looks better than most Wii FPS!

Holy blatant copy Batman, Dante's Inferno is GoW with a different coat of paint. Its shameless, everything is nearly identical. I knew the moves before looking at the move list cause I know the GoW combos, like hold triangle and you will knock enemies in the air to do an air combo. Everything is color coded the same way, the way you get health is done the same, the button mapping is practically the same. The only difference is that you get this cross attack which is a ranged attack.

Like most copies they are not as good as the original. The combat is ok but does not feel as fluid as GoW. The graphics are not that good, some of the models are almost last gensh, at least its 60 FPS. The story and setting are the only real differences here. The story seems like it will be told like most game stories, quick cutscenes with minimal dialogue. At least they copied one of the better games because of that it is still fun. There is one boss fight which was ok. You get to ride this big monster dude at the end, that was cool but again GoW is doing that now and it felt better in that game.

After playing GoW3s demo this game feels so far behind. It is exactly as I expected, this game will be the worst of the major action games to hit next year. This is classic EA, grab a license and copy an existing template to fit that license.

You got to hand it to EA though, although they're hacks, they're good at it like Dead Space.

But I think I agree with you on Dante's Inferno. Castlevania Lord of Shadow might be better and GoWIII's competition will not be those but Bayonetta.

Value Game Bundle?

When stores sell bunch of games for $19,99. 

From neogaf

That's when stores have a big bin of shovelware and each game has a big $19.99 price tag on it and another sticker covering up the original UPC. Even though they are a mix of games they all share the same UPC so they register as the same product.

This is not like Dead Space, Dead Space was its own game. Yeah it used RE4 like gameplay but it had different controls, different emphasis on combat and atmosphere. It had it's own identity. Dante feels like GoW in new skin.
