Rumor: NGP Launch Titles Confirmed
PSP2, NGP, Vita...call it whatever you want; it still needs great games in order to succeed.
Most importantly, Sony's new portable will require a solid assortment of launch titles when the fancy new handheld arrives. We've heard multiple rumors supposedly confirming the NGP launch lineup and while this isn't official, it's encouraging to see more evidence. If true, this list is pretty damn good:
- Uncharted NGP
- Little Deviants
- Call of Duty
- Lumines NGP
- Sonic Generations
- Mortal Kombat
- LEGO Harry Potter (5-7 years)
- Pro Evolution Soccer 2012
- Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition
- F1 2011
- Hot Shot Golf Next
- FIFA 12
- Wipeout
I've often said it in the past: hardware turns into a really expensive paperweight with no software. Of course, in this sense, the super light NGP doesn't really fit the analogy but you get the point. It won't be cheap and it'll need to compete against the likes of the Nintendo 3DS; hence, it really needs a great start.
Would this lineup convince you to nab the new portable on launch day?

I will not start a Uncharted rant again, let's just say that I won't buy it and leave it at that.
In addition to big games (like Mass Effect or even Burnout Paradise, how awsome would that be) I was hoping for more unique NGP titles, like Crush on the PSP. Games that are not just watered down versions of console games, but unique IPs for that platform.
I hate to admit it, but all in all I am disappointed. I was expecting at least *one* big surprise on that list. Something that made me go "omg, ok, I *want* this".
If this is the final list then I will definitely put the NGP on hold until further notice.

Hey Baseballedude or Ben,
Can you fix this demonic "toggle scrolling button" to stay exactly how I've set it to off mode forever? It's driving me nucking futs!
FYI, I'm not sure if you guys are aware of it but, if I post something, it keeps resetting itself back to "scrolling" mode, & then I have to make up to 5 more clicks just to get back to the main page afterwards.
And if I have a lot of posts to do, it get so bad, it makes me not even want to post anything at all.
Please, help a brother out

Yeah, I love those old Foghorn Leghorn cartoons, along with those two sarcastic Magpies, Heckle & Jeckle too.
The most recent character I love is from the 1/2 hour TV show Futurama, that boozing, smoking, swearing, womanizer, Bender the robotthat's always telling everyone to "BITE MY SHINY METAL A$$".
Anyway, my Foghorn pic isn't sized large enough here to read what he's saying there, so I've added it below for your enjoyment.......
"I say, boy, you don't seem to be apprehendin' the general gist of what I'm trying to convey here". "Maybe you oughta take a second, let your mind catch up to your tongue before it gets all sunburnt". "That was a joke, son..I say...a joke".
(Nice kid, but he's about as smart, as a sack o' wet mice)

Yeah, I'm dead bored spending mah days at home for a while I broke my left radius a while back (no authorization yet for grabbing the joystick :( ,or playing guitar, drums or anything that requires two hands)
I'm going through FF VII again single-handedly
That's what I get for skipping the doctor for a whole month,
I SWEAR I THOUGHT IT WAS TENDONITIS!!! I mean I could still move my fingers...

For me, it'd be Lumines, Uncharted, Little Deviants and WipEout. I just hope that we get a couple of other NGP/PSV exclusive franchises releasing in the first three months to better take advantage of the hardware. And if Sega doesn't announce VC4 for the NGP soon, I'm going to lose it. That NEEDS to happen!
Peace.

Have to admit, I like the bonus characters you can enable, they rock. They also make the missions a good bit easier...

But if, say, BioWare are lurking in the shadows with a *giant* rpg for the NGP, well... I will not be able to resist that, no matter how soon it may drop in price. I am a slave and admit it.
After all, I bought the PS3 for one game only (gtaiv).

uncharted has been rumored to not be ready for launch, if this misses launch the NGP is as good as sunk!
they need killzone or resistance or maybe even little big planet to go along with uncharted, i just cant see one big well known franchise being enough to carry it.

Also, touch screen manipulation for several different features is rumoured, though not confirmed.

Actually on that matter I got my hands on a 3DS at a game store the other day,I seriously think it is the worse console I have ever set eyes on. I'm being serious. I played Street Fighter IV, which I am fair at on the PS3 version. But playing this it on the DS i could not just get used to the D-pad or analogue stick. Also, I was trying to focus on the screen with the fight, But the screen below was actually brighter and really distracting. If that was not enough! One screen is bigger than the other! What we're they thinking when making this obscure device!

The game is clearly built to be played with both hands on the standard button/stick controls and not by tracing your fingers across the screen.
