Was the delayed PC version worth the wait?

Gran turismo has always been my favourite driving series, always had the most true to life driving experience that was included in a full game. There are other driving simulators available on the PC but they are not games, anyway, like i said – the most true to life driving experience.

The Gran turismo series has a massive following, it is Sony’s biggest game franchise with it topping 52million units sold. Gran turismo 5 prologue, which is just a demo of what is the come in the full Gran turismo 5 game sold 4 million copies! But enough about sales, they don’t prove anything. But just look around the Playstation community and you do find a huge Gran turismo following, and that is for one reason – the driving!

Splosion man came totally out of nowhere for me, i had never heard of it till recently and it isn’t really something i would jump out of my seat to go run and buy it. But after hearing so many people raving about it i decided to try out the demo, i was instantly hooked, i bought the game without even finishing the demo, just unlocked it there and then.

The game is currently only on xbox live arcade for 800 microsoft points, but Twisted pixel (The developers) are not against the Idea of bringing it to the PSN, apparently, their last game, The maw was going to make it over to the PSN too, but sony denied it as they have a policy which stops any previous exclusive game to another platform being released on a sony platform after 6 months without having a certain amount of extra content, which Twisted pixel didn’t want to do with that game.

However, i’m sure this type of game could make it over to the PSN due to how the game is set up, surely creating extra levels or bonus stages wouldn’t be hard for this type of game. Or, if they act fast – they may not have to create more content if they get it on the PSN in under 6 months. Either way, i really hope this game is released on the PS3 (and maybe a PSP version (or through remote play!)) because it would be a great addition to the PSN library.

Yep, killzone 2 again. I praised the ground it walks on in my review so you should already know that i love the game. However, up until a few days ago, I had always said that the multiplayer was the reason to own killzone 2, that has been changed now.

I constantly hear these games journalists from the large media outlets talking about how sony are “beating a dead horse” by talking about the PlayStation 2 all the time, saying that the console is no longer relevant and they should stop talking about it and drop it.

The PlayStation 2, is probably the best games console ever made. I know for a fact many gamers will disagree and i’m not sure i would class it as MY favourite console, but simply looking at the facts and NOT just the sales numbers, its hard to deny it was an incredible console in many ways and its success was well deserved, unlike a certain other console.

Anyway, why is the PlayStation 2 still relevant? I’ll tell you, you may disagree because no doubt this will be a highly opinionated post, but i still believe that the PS2 has a better games library than all three of the current generation consoles put together and there are a very small percentage of people who have experienced all the great games the system has to offer.
