Did you read the topic on Sony's policies that I made in the N-zone forum? |

The thing about them rejecting good games because the graphics aren't perfect? Yes. :angry: |

I'm curious about this, but I can't find anything on the N-Zone forums. Could you provide a link please? |

Angered by that? Then don't support Sony. Get the DS! Super Mario 64 DS, Spider-man 2 DS, and Rayman DS are all going to be GREAT! Everyone REALLY should watch the links in my sig... |

Too few posts for a custom title

I really doubt that's all true. Based in truth? Probably. Exaggerated? Almost certainly. Seems more like a prank or anti-Sony propaganda to me... |

I agree with GJ for once. PS2's FAR from my favorite console, and I don't really like Sony in general, but that just seems like someone trying to get people riled up. |

The PS2 has some good RPGs, but Nintendo has some of the best game series ever (Mario, Metroid, Zelda, Donkey Kong...). And Metroid Prime: Hunters looks great. They got rid of the lock-on AND made it so you can free-look while running! http://www.gamespot.com/ds/action/dsmetroi...nt_demo1007.asx |

Mecha, you're preaching to choir. I'm a fairly devout Nintendo fan, it's just that I doubt the validity of that quote. |

I know I'm being kind of overenthusiastic, it's just that those games look so cool.... Now, if I could just find a place that still has an open reservation slot.... |

Bullshit. I doubt any of that quote is true. Seems like a load of Anti-Sony propaganda from the ever reliable "Friend of a friend of a friend in the industry, really". Until Sony goes totally batshit insane and actually starts publicly delivering those guidelines to companies, I'll take it with a grain of salt. |

I honestly don't doubt that Sony's approval process leans heavily towards graphics over gameplay. This doesn't mean that I don't like my PS2 though. On the contrary, some of my favorite games are PS2 only (Xenosaga, the DDR series, etc.). I don't hate Sony for it, but I believe that it will end up coming back to bite them later. |

Believe it if you want maybe it's a bit exagernated, but it certainly seems to ring true to me. |

Seems like propaganda to me. PS: Does Sony or Nintendo need to authorize a game for it to be released? |

Personally, I'm somewhat annoyed by Sony and Microsoft. Whatever happened to there being GAME COMPANIES?!? Systems are now being made by companies that primarily focus on other things. Nintendo is the last true game console company..... |

I remember reading that game companies could make 3 none approved games a year. This may have been the olde NES system. |

I don't think so... I know Nintendo used to be more lax then it is today, but I can't remember buying a single NES game that didn't have the Nintendo seal of approval on it, and I've got a good collection of games, both well known and unknown. |

I for one would prefe more 2d games, mainly cuz that what I feel more comfy playing. That said, I *DO* like some FPS, but I prefer 2d platformers... though SOME 3d platformers are fun: ie Ratchet and Clank, Jax & Daxter.. |

I find I prefer the Jak and Daxter games to the Ratchet and Clank games... The second J&D game was just plain addicting. |
