This is easily one of the worst lists I've ever read, which makes me wonder if this person is even a trophy hunter or for that matter knows anything about trophies.

For starters, the first 7 items on the list are merely a matter of skill (as you state) and some like Zico CAN be done fairly quickly. Not saying I have the skills to beat Zico in 1 try, but the trophy can in theory be done in 10 minutes if you have the skill.

As far as Demon Souls goes, ther...

Terrible example.

Many people are willing to pay that for an iPad, since its perceived to have that much value. This will not be the case for the PS4 / new Xbox, since there won't be an instant need to upgrade.

In the case of the PS3, it was also a bluray player (at the time were also an extremely expensive item and even now can run you 70+ dollars) and down the road it gained internet apps like Netflix. The PS4 won't have any of the side things to i...

Agreed.

The only reason this might be news to some, is the simple fact that there isn't a lot to say about it. Sure it's cool, but the price vastly outweighs any of that. Additionally, I've yet to hear news of more titles coming, nor has there really been any news past the preorder bonus, so it's not shocking to be in the dark.

Either or, down voted for the deceptive title... since I rather not see a new article every time a flash back or Ch...

While I understand where you're coming from, you should tone it down a little.

For starters, have you ever looked at the Japanese or Asian Playstation Plus offerings? They're simply awful and worst than any given month in the US / EU. (Though Asia has redeemed itself a few times, like having the All Stars beta before the US private beta invites went out) Japan currently has Virtua Fighter 5, After Burner Climax, Army's Assault (Vita, replaced Sumioni), 2 PC Engin...

I like the S you added to Game Journalists.

Also don't forget the period. ;)

Did you remember to change the year?

It's things like this that make me wonder how much testing went into the new store... it's not user friendly, it's slow, things can be a hassle to find and now this. Sure it looks nice, but COME ON!

I think it had to do with reviews coming in from 1 side and the fans coming from a different side and the 2 sides just so happen to conflict. Like you can't really review the online past a mechanical standpoint, which was less than inspiring. Not a ton of choices, maps are super small, 4v4, didn't work that well to start, where as fans view it as "true" to the series they love and automatically give it more benefit of doubt than reviews did. The online fans also write off th...

Well scores are actually meaningless, since the words give the number a meaning. Too many people forget that everyone is different and everyone sees value differently. This is clearly visible in games like Playstation All-Stars, since the game does the right things right, but also does a lot of wrong. Some people overlook the bad, since the good is more important, where as others mark it down because those elements could be different. Really anyone who has gone to school should understand the...

Is it just me or are these announcements a turn off?

So what do we know about Kaizoku Musou 2? Enel is in it, more time skip costumes are included, its coming to EU this Summer / JP in March and the box art / first run item / CE... I don't know why, but this is starting to come off as a rushed release. I guess we will see, but this update has sold me on waiting to see what others say.

Honestly speaking, nothing said in this article was THAT devastating or even touched on the games core issue.

Believe it or not, but leaks can actually help the game more than hurt it. While the characters / stages were revealed, we still didn't know how the characters fought or much about their play style. This left them some hype for when they were officially revealed, since we could see how they fought / what to expect.

Beyond what was said, the bigges...

Since the original final mixes had it and they were never brought over, this means virtually nothing.

While I don't exactly agree with this, a lot of it has to do with "lop sided" value.

On one hand the game has good balance (for the most part) and some think it's fun to play against real people / friends.

On the other hand... many people were less than thrilled with the roster, the campaign is really short with virtually no replay value, almost no story, not a lot of modes, menu could be better, AI is dumb, online can be problematic if yo...

CoD is easy, in the sense of everything being really simple. You don't need to learn a bunch of buttons, figure out how to deal with cars / tanks (like in Battlefield) and thus people like it. This is further enhanced by the fact everyone else is playing it, which in turn forces you to play it to be with your friends. Hard to say how much of this is the actual "key" to success, but I am sure a lot of people are buying it because they know their friends are and people want to pla...

While you're right about the internet aspect, I would place the failure on the flaws with the concept.

Generally speaking, G4 also had a lot of reruns, which probably got extremely low ratings. Sure X-Play was funny (from what I saw), but after the games been out for a while or you've seen it, there really isn't a point in ever watching that again. The same goes for the guide show (blanking on the name), since it will only help a dwindling minority. Furthermore, ...

Yes / No.

Playing as Goku? Quite old.
Goku confirmed free with first run copies in the US? Not so much.

The difference is that the 3DS version is something of a fixed cost, where as the iOS version is "bite size". If you only want like 5 songs, then it costs less for iOS than 3DS. If you want them all, then it costs a little under half for the 3DS. Don't have exact figures, but it all comes down to how many songs you want.

Does it really count as an exclusive if it's on iOS?

A) People are not going nuts... some people were less than thrilled, some (like 1 / 2) wrote an editorial about it and then a number of people continued the talk by writing a response to these comments.
B) Boxart is important, since it gives you an idea of what to expect. Bioshock Infinite appears to be a COMPLETELY different type of game when compared to Bioshock 1 / 2, so I don't like it. The best designs are both good and accurately portray the game.
C) Can we let this ...

Glad to help! Also I think you actually gave me another bubble (wow, you can ACTUALLY earn another bubble on this site... thought it was a myth), so thanks for that.

Enjoy the beta!
