What role does realism play in videogames I ask myself. Is this image more interesting? Sometimes.. however, what if a "detailed" hand with 5 fingers is catching a bottle but the fingers pass right through it? Is this still realistic? Rather than to show each meticulous and tiny detail of a finger, it is more important to make the end action look more credible by working on the movement and functionality of the arms and the hand in relation to the object. -- Shigeru Miyamoto

Points of Interest

  1. GameTrailers offers up the first review of the long-awaited, controversial Bully.

    Sounds like fun.

  2. Next Generation has a short interview with Kaz Hirai in which they discuss “the coming of PlayStation 3 and, specifically, the company?s online strategy and why it doesn?t have a name?”
  3. They also speak with Capcom regarding next-generation console support.
  4. Go Nintendo has some translated scans of the Dragon Quest VIII/Mario crossover known as Itadaki Street.
  5. Hideo Kojima talks Wii, DS.
  6. Slashdot has a link to an article looking at some of the best and most relevant games from the Dreamcast.

    By suggesting titles that haven’t been topped by further works, or that may have been the basis for other popular games, he’s hoping that today’s gamers will still stop and play the classics once in a while.

  7. …GAH!

    Game|Life has a picture up of next-generation Amy Rose… and her monstrous hands.

    Through his link, you can see more, including Blaze the Cat.

  8. It never ceases to amaze me what investors will pour their money into.
  9. Joystiq goes hands-on with Sonic and the Secret Rings. The verdict?

    “…as you’ll be able tell from the huge smiles on both our faces, this game is pure fun. It made me regret that only the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 Sonic games were available on the showfloor, because this game is without a doubt much better.”

  10. Kotaku shows off a Question Block bean bag chair, based on the Mario games.

    Nice. Sort of reminds me of my days at my dad’s arcade when I’d make Super Mario 3-styled bricks out of tape and discarded cigarette packs.

  11. Accompanying this article, it occurs to me that I’m just a little surprised no one’s made a set of these shorts with the connector-end of a cartridge pictured vertically along the fly…

    Chew on that for a few minutes, see if you get where I’m going with this.

  12. Capcom VP wants to see more happy PS3 news.

    Kotaku responds as well as anyone possibly could.

  13. 2old2play checks out the Wii, though Go Nintendo says that some of the information in the article is faulty.

    I really gotta get me some cred…
