"Something that bothers me a lot is that consoles and handhelds used to be something different from their predecessors, but if you take a look at all new consoles, they al have recycled content. For example: "

Clearly you need a history lesson, since this has remain almost constantly throughout history. Want proof? Look at the WHOLE lifespan of the Gameboy.

Yes, but that is at best anecdotal evidence.

Like they're saying 16.5 million copies of GTA V have already sold, so lets say 8.25 million are PS3 side. There are only 1.2 million people tracked by PSNProfiles, which means the total sales at the moment are roughly 7 times larger than all of PSNProfiles period. Of that 1.2 million tracked, only 60,217 people are being tracked for GTA V, so this is a very very small market size. So you're effectively looking at a sum tha...

"I think it's more than worth it.

$150 is nothing. I'll be playing this game for a loooong time.... well beyond the release of the PS4. "

Since the game is at a fixed price of $60, the question isn't about if you think the edition is worth $150, but a question of wether or not you think the extras are worth the additional $90 dollars. I wouldn't say it was worth the extra and even some other over priced CE's like the Black Ops 1 ...

No, but it also doesn't have to be a Ninja Gaiden game either.

I don't see why it's bad to get angry when an IP you like changes, but write off the developers / publishers for trying to cash in on the name. This game, much like Lost Planet 3, could very easily be their own games without any ties to either franchise. Like the only thing LP 3 had that related to Lost Planet was the use of the term "Snow Pirate", the company Nevec, T-Eng, an anchor was used...

After the faithful and totally amazing job they did on Lost Planet 3, I am completely surprised to see they would screw this game up. *

* Sadly... I feel the need to note I am being sarcastic.

While I agree some of these comments are immature and unneeded (especially Cun's), it isn't like everything said here is on the money either.

Like the dev claims games are becoming harder to make, yet next gen consoles (or at least the PS4 and I believe Xbox One) were made with developers in mind. I also recall someone saying that making the PS4 / XB1 closer to the PC results in lower development time and lower costs in the end. So if all of this is true, then games a...

@ Cell989

I have no clue why that is in the past tense, since people are still abusing it. They just changed how they were doing it.

Probably touch.

Not really wishful, since you can't really abuse activations like on the PS3.

Since a Vita can only hold one account, you absolutely must remain on the account you activate with it or simply format it. This means you won't be able to get trophies on another account, you can't play with your friends, if your friend doesn't let you log in, then you can't play online / get demos / get DLC / use Near / comment on activity, nor do you have the ability to buy a...

No, COMPANIES need to listen. This is hardly a problem limited to Capcom and would do others like Square Enix some good.

Well it's not like genuinely stupid people aren't on this site. Like the person who wrote the blog about his GTA V download. Yeah it sucked that Rockstar gave incorrect information, but come on...

Extremely popular game
Open World (meaning huge file size)
Slow PSN servers

Amazingly slow download.

Not like anyone with a decent connection and PlayStation Plus couldn't have predicted this from the start....

Unlikely. Duke Nukem Forever was not as terrible as everyone made it out to be (don't mistake this for me saying it was amazing either) and did not have a 15 year development cycle. It had a bunch of restarts / redos / staff downsizing and was pretty much dead for 2 of those years. Towards the end they just wanted to finally release the game and so we got a rushed product.

Anyway, thats just how some of these things go. Like I recall reading it takes 1 month to make a dy...

Duke Nukem might not have ever been a master piece, but they were fun / interesting games for the time. DNF could have been a fantastic game, but it was poorly managed, which resulted in all the issues, which is possible of any developer.

Just because it was announced X years ago, doesn't mean it has been in development for all those years. It could have been shelved, people put on other projects and many many other explanations.

This starts to make sense when the only news I recall reading about in the past 2 years is that it's still being developed. Always a good sign when all you hear is "it's coming", yet you see / hear nothing.

Same thing happened with DNF. People ...

@ MizTV

Some games work like that, where as others will completely disable it while playing.

I would be happy with any of those besides Battle Princess, since I already paid off an import for it.

"The cheapened LCD Vita should cost $150 when it launches in the west."

It will cost $200. Sony wouldn't announce a price drop in the US / EU only to announce another model and another price drop a few weeks later.

"Finally, gamers are seeing the light. "

They always saw the light, hence why people were protesting the XB1 before it was even announced.

"Blogs like this let us know that plain and simple, we aren't ready for an all-digital generation yet. "

Are you really suggesting we need more short, not really thought out blogs about entitlement?

"If you thought 15 hours was a killer, how do you think PC g...

"I'm going to go out on a limb and say your 15 hours is a little exaggerated. If it's not then that does seem like a huge your end problem. I downloaded GTA V to two separate PS3s at the same time about ten minutes after it became available. Both were done within four hours."

I agree, though anything is possible. Like I tried to download iOS 7 at 4 PM EST and got it downloaded two in 20 minutes and 25 minutes. I then tried to download iOS 7 at 9 PM EST and g...

How exactly is this problem "hidden"? It was one of the leading reasons why people protested the "Always Online" Xbox One and is something anyone with PlayStation Plus has no doubt experienced (SF:A, SRIII, Battlefield 3, Uncharted 3). Speaking of the Xbox One... your concerns (and really this blog as a whole) is nothing more than a continuation of everything people have been saying since M$ pushed for more DD. So in that sense I am a little sad that it took you this long ...
