m$ is despicable company..They dont listen to their fans or gamers out there..only did it because ps4 preorder was number one at every retail store..they learn the fucken hard way not to spit on gamers face around the world.. Just like hiphopgamer say we true gamers can make you disappear..

Anyone who believes that Microsoft 'Changed' for the good of the industry or for the good of their consumers or for gamers are blinded and idiotic.

They didn't really see the "light", more like a "huge fire"... then again, they could see a light from a fire :3

smashcrashbash4714d ago

What they did is announce this to see how everyone would react, pretend that they are sticking to their guns and then seem to give in so deluded people would say 'See Microsoft is not so bad after all.They love us and saw how we didn't like it and it was because we complained and Microsoft listened'. And deluded fanboys will run around cheering that they got their way when they were being manipulated from the start. And if you protest and still say anything bad about them people will attack you and say 'They changed it, that is all that matters' and tell yo to shut up in hopes that you will forget all the things Microsoft said post change about they aren't going to change anything and blaming everyone from the media to the gamers about complaining too much. And if you protest further the 'It's just business' excuse that rolls out to explain every underhanded thing MS does.It always just business when Microsoft is doing it. Everyone else is evil and underhanded.People take about Sony using misdirection? That is Microsoft's middle name.

I guess Im not "everyone". I wanted DRM so I didn't have to consistently change discs. Would have been nice.

punisher994713d ago

What that has got to do with it? Every PS4 and xbox1 game will be available for download.

hellvaguy4713d ago

You cant download the full until over 1 year after retail. Plus digital copies are always more expensive (never understood why).

punisher994713d ago

"You cant download the full until over 1 year after retail."

Are you sure? I thought they were supposed to be day 1 downloads. Must be just for some.

alittleshakey4713d ago

All games available on disc and digital on day one. Also for the same price.

morganfell4713d ago (Edited 4713d ago )

Yes, you would have your DRM and the entire industry would have begun to try and force it at every turn. For games, for music, for movies.

The developers bellyaching over used sales need to take a reality check. Nowhere are these so called "arteeests" being held accountable for their crappy titles. Not where it matters - at the register.

Publishers dump millions into marketing and fool buyers about the true nature of the game. And then the consumer is shafted with a bug riddled $59 piece of trash.

There is already one form of DRM in place. It is called "You can't sell this crap game for what it cost, only what it is worth".

No devs are screaming then about the unjust loss of money. Maybe they would like it if class action lawsuits started nailing them to the floorboards.

I would gladly accept DRM if they were held accountable for every time they decieved the public. But no, they want the rules to apply to others which they refuse to accept for themselves.

A great game with replayability is the best defense against used game sales. If you can't build titles like that, well, the world needs ditch diggers too. A great many more developers need to accept the truth that they have no creativity and are not cut out for this business.

As regards the DRM mentioned above, it is beginning to look like Greenberg and several MS spokesmen are now trying to cover the facts of the original family share plan.

Sooner or later the truth will leak out and they will look the worse for it.

Foxhound9224712d ago

I believe you meant *constantly. But anyways, you're willing to give up your rights to video games based solely on the fact that you don't have to get up and change a disk? That's kind of sad. Murricah'

They tried to do it so I have lost the little respect I had left for Microsoft.

Nes_Daze4713d ago

Yeah, saw the light, after using Windows 8 and buying a 4GB Xbox360 (lol), I'll think twice before buying another MS console.

Killer Instinct: The Most Underrated Fighting Video Game in History

Killer Instinct is like the forgotten cousin at the fighting game family reunion.

Michiel1989393d ago

yeah they were such good and fun games but they never really reached the mainstream audience. Killer Instinct was widely known and respected.

Cacabunga393d ago

Killer instinct is great, especially on snes but it’s not the most underrated fighter.. for me it’s Power Stone. So much potential in this series

Jawsh666393d ago

Bloody Roar was a game that had a sick concept but wasn’t made the best. I’d say Killer Instinct was the opposite of that, it was well made but the roster of characters were so similar to every other fighting game in that era that it ended up feeling like more of the same. I could be wrong that’s just how I remember it at the time and I played a ton of KI on SNES because it was one of the first games I owned.

PRIMORDUS393d ago

I loved this game in the arcade, my main was Jago, Ultra Combo!!! https://www.youtube.com/wat...

DivineHand125392d ago

That combo was way overkill 😂

PRIMORDUS392d ago

I know haha, I loved Jago.

Bathyj393d ago

You're kidding?
It enjoyed probably more success than it deserved.
Unlike Tobal 2

MeteorPanda392d ago

Tobal 2 was awesome. Sold really well cause art similarity to dragon ball

jjb1981393d ago

I remember trying my hardest to learn that "Ultra... Ultra.... Ultra...." finish. Such a great fighting game.

Popsicle392d ago (Edited 392d ago )

I can tell you definitely got some SNES time in. The slight differences in the ports due to hardware constraints were interesting. For example, the arcade version was Ultraaaa Coooommboooooooo! versus Ultra….Ultra….Ultra on the SNES.

Though SNES overachieved as a port for as demanding as a game KI was.The arcade version was one of the first cabinets with a dedicated hard drive and the SNES version was 32 megabyte cartridge which was huge for that system at the time.

jjb1981391d ago

Yeah, for sure. My local childhood arcade was always packed and it was hard to get a game in but once the SNES version came out, I was hooked. I can still feel the click of the power button.

Barlos901d ago

I'll have to get this! Been a big fan of KI since the very first one.

Petebloodyonion901d ago (Edited 901d ago )

I love KI (still play the old arcade version) but feel like the Xbox version is like a big intimidating chessboard with no easy way to instruct you to play chess.
The game is so deep in terms of little things to do that it makes Smash Bros melee look like a casual experience.
Honestly, doing a combo Breaker is punish/reward by itself but hey you can add a counterbreaker.
Here's what you also need to know
