Tecmo Koei Teases Important Announcement For Dynasty Warriors 7 PS3

I was expecting something like this to happen down the line.

Early on, Microsoft rushed the production of their console to get it out of the gate before the PS3, it showed badly in the form of shabby product that caused them a few legal troubles that extended their warranty yet still held a dreaded high console failure rate (RROD). They purchased many time-limited exclusive titles which garnered them some favor and interest at first but as the years passed by, consumers began to catch on that many titles would end up being multiplatformed.

Not only so but Sony often pushed and applied certain pressures/encouragements to possess extra content for their versions so to compensate the late entry which often formed polished games on the PS3. On 2010, it was clear that the PS3 began going full steam ahead with a clear and full list of brilliant upcoming titles and 2011 is shaping to be an equally strong year for the PS3 despite the PSN incident (which has begun spinning about into the year of “Hacking is the new sport” where multiple companies have had their sites and servers hacked. Some retaining their silence on the matter as they believed it unnecessary to inform the public *coughNintendocough*)

With the PS3 attempting to also push it’s boundaries again into the alternative control market, first with the PSeye, attempting to makes gamers become the controller (sounds familiar?) and now with the incorporation of the PS Move (still under that ‘it’s being used as a gimmick’ period though, but there are certain games that does make the control scheme of the PS move quite valid, such as R.U.S.E. the RTS) though with enough awareness and information provided by the Wii’s run through a large variety of shovelware, it will certainly be slow moving but the Move will eventually come to have some good use.

And now with the PSV rearing it’s lovely head up, region free and a competitive price with a decent line-up of titles and strong third party support with previous interviews describing the PSV as an easier console to make games for compared to the PSP and the PS3, cloud saving and Hideo Kojima’s incorporation of the similar Transfarring. Sony’s going to have quite a future in the gaming market and many more companies are sure to dote on the PS3 and the PSV as well as the dual PSV and PS3 cross-platforming play.

So yeah. You can definitely see the result of the short terms quarters profit mentality utilized by Microsoft and the long term initial loss for continued profit mentality by Sony.

Note: Not hating any consoles here. Microsoft has a strong backing by indie developers holding many strong titles that aren’t available on the PS3 and the Wii is a solid console by itself holding a few exclusives of it’s own that certainly does appeal to the more mature and core gamers as they would describe us so vaguely while also being the, what would most certainly be, the most couch-sociable console out there making gaming as accessible as can be and aiding in expanding the market and the exposure of gaming to the world.
