    So who thinks CoD for vita will be launched alongside its console counterpart? Ithink its pretty unlikely since its 3months away and nothings been shown at all :(

    Shame as i was gonna get the Vita CoD instead of BLOPS2 :/
     
  2. Rumors say Declassified is being developed by Nihilistic, the same people who made Resistance Burning Skies. I don't believe the rumor, but it certainly can't be a good sign that nothing has been shown at all at this point. That said, I'd be really surprised if we still get no CoD info at Gamescom.

    Who said there won't? Just because its a different dev doesn't mean activision won't be watching closely. Activision isn't going to want to lose money on this

    I know I heard some rumors that Declassified was being developed by Neversoft- the people behind the Tony Hawk series and several Guitar Hero games. Haven't heard any rumors about Nihilistic developing it before.
     
  7. Someone talked about it in the comments section of some website, and a few NeoGAF posters have also mentioned it.

    ####ing resistance man, it was good and fun story mode, but multiplayer was just huge mess.
    I don't think activision really cares about cod on the vita... My best guess and hope is being develope by neversoft because they are doing some works about cod... I mean any other studio other than N studio would be welcome...
    Personally want to see god of war on the vita.. I mean on psp, god of war was such an amazing game and proved what psp could do, so if we don't see god of war by next 1 year, I would say it will never happen

    Tbh, resistance should have done with insomniac.... I mean really... Those idiots who made burning skies, they never made FPS games before... So letting them ruin the resistance was like saying #### you to all the fans out there.. It was still alright I wouldn't say single player was good, but MP was just one of the worse MP I have seen so far

    Chains of Olympus released 3 years after the PSP launched. I prefer they put the necessary time into development instead of feeling like they NEED to get a God of War out on Vita.

    I've actually seen a lot of people base Resistance's mediocrity down to the dev's lack of experience with FPS shooters, but I don't think thats the problem. Look at Retro Studio for Nintendo. Their first three games were the Metroid Prime trilogy. They had no previous experience with FPS's (though their founder worked at Acclaim so he may have been involved to some degree with Turok) and yet they not only did a great job with Metroids transition from 2D into 3D, but also it's transition from side scroller to FPS. I think if the dev team is talented enough, they can do anything, which clearly wasn't the case with Resistance.

    They definitely had experience with the FPS genre- though Metroid Prime isn't your typical FPS. The founder and most of the original employees of Retro were former Iguana employees- Iguana was the company that made Turok. Acclaim just published it (and ported it to PC). They had several projects which were cancelled prior to Metroid Prime due to quality concerns- they had a fairly rocky start. If I remember correctly, Metroid Prime used an FPS engine they had originally developed for another game (one of the cancelled projects).

    I think part of the problem is that Nihilistic doesn't seem like they get much outside help or supervision like Retro did/does, and they also don't have a large number of employees working on projects. Whenever Retro starts working on something big, they normally start hiring a lot of people. Nihilistic nailed the basic FPS mechanics- they just failed to really make it interesting, and to capture the feel of the Resistance franchise. It probably would've been received better as an original game.

    Well, we're supposedly a few months from release and have nothing at all about COD. Looks like a major crap is coming, otherwise they would be hyping it. If only COD4 was ported, I'd be more than happy...

    Totally agree, need more game announcements i mean whatever happened to Bioshock title on Vita-do i have to wait 5years for that lol, why mention anything about it if tey havent even started it yet, i know Bioshock Infinates being concentrated on but i want my Vita games lol.
    Sony pull your finger outa ur asses and make more games already!! Ppwerful as PS3? Prove it!!!
     
  19. Gamescom is in a week, and Sony is supposed to be the only one of the big three companies to be there.

    Can't wait for Sound Shapes to be released later today. It's one of those titles I've wanted to play since seeing it at E3 last year. Reviews seem very positive so far.

    I haven't been paying attention to Vita stuff lately and saw that Sound Shapes was coming out. Looks like it's good as well:
