Voting with my wallet is my right, not my privilege.
Purchase declined. I can most definitely live without another cookie cutter Assassins Creed, now with 100% more parity clause.
This isn't going to have the effect they think it's going to have. They are about to have a cavalcade of shit dumped upon them like never before.
And personally I'm not buying any game that has artificially imposed parity to the lowest common denominator.
Ubisoft makes the most disposable games in the industry. I can easily live without playing the same assassins creed game over and over again each year.
I stopped patronizing Ars Technica when they were blatantly sucking at the Microsoft teat over the Xbox one.
The launch of the PS4 and Xbox one really annihilated a lot of biased publications off my list.
I've been following the videos by InternetAristocrat on his youtube channel on this crap. And it's kind of been the last straw for me. I already was leaning toward not bothering with gaming media sites before and now I'll be taking all precautions to avoid clicking on anything coming from places like Kotaku and their like.
Why am I even still looking at this site? who knows, because I don't trust any of this shit any more and I don't want to give a cent ...
Guys probably going to get fired before it's all over for that one. Or at least have to make a big apology.
Nevada full of crooks? Go figure.
It also hurts anyone who wants to play tomb raider in 1080p or higher.
Blurry ass 720p and 400 dollars to play the game isn't happening for me.
Shame that Square Enix still holds so many good IP's and sucks as much as they do.
My only real question now is who will get control of all the IP I love when they inevitably to bankrupt in the next couple years. It wasn't looking good for them to begin with and moves like this are absolutely stunningly stupid.
I was really hoping for better things from Deus Ex and Thief, which were classics I loved. This is really just the latest nail in the coffin...
I learned something new. French manicures don't actually come from France, they were invented by a bunch of Nordic barbarians in some parallel universe.
Done, and replace all the clickers with zombie Robin Thickes in beetlejuice suits.
It can be symbolic of his career.
Most shooters treat killing as having no consequences. You shoot hundreds of people, they shoot you, you respawn, the mind knows it's not real.
However, when you add consequences, and real people on the other end, it becomes a different experience.
I was playing dayz recently and I encountered another player at the north military base. He was chasing a zombie with an axe and I had my gun out at the ready. He saw me and started taking out his gun so I...
I think he meant to say it has a super duper netbook design. With a super 50 dollar, bottom end video card with ddr3 design.
And a stupid performance sucking, and price inflating integrated camera design.
If they were smart they had a clause in their exclusivity contract based on sales.
Microsoft hyped the Xbox One as the machine that was going to dominate the generation with massive sales and a lot of people believed it. But it's time to face facts, the machine is a flop.
Trying to launch a brand new IP to compete with COD successfully on a machine that's a flop, when the lead platform for COD in the future has been stated to be the PS4, is not going...
I really like the argument that nVidia, AMD and Intel say it's true so it must be true. They all lie shamelessly in the name of marketing. These companies will promise you the moon and deliver a black and white picture of it every time.
Maybe you all don't remember, but the same claims were made for Direct 10 and 11 too. Directx 10 was going to be a game changer that sped everything up. In actuality it just made for better looking and incredibly more demanding gam...
Watched some pre alpha footage and it was pretty laughable. Didn't think you could make the cryengine look that bad.
Yeah the Arma engine is a joke, But Rust still probably has the best chance in my opinion even though it uses source.
I've played Dayz, and Rust, and I just don't know if they'll ever overcome the awfulness of Arma when it comes to network connectivity. Just such a laggy de-syncing nasty mess. With clumsy awful rubber banding...
Well to each their own. I don't see that as being worthy of a monthly fee though myself. And in the short time I did try the beta I wasn't very enthralled by it. I didn't find it felt anything at all like skyrim to me. But rather any other MMO.
I fear greatly for the longevity of the game. Though I wish it the best of luck. I just expect a very similar outcome to the SWTOR release. Elation at first followed by complete population collapse in three months.
Don't buy MMO reviews. There's no way you can adequately review an MMO without playing it right to max level, and then playing about 3 months. These games can't really be reviewed in the traditional sense.
SWTOR and Age of Conan for example got great reviews by reviewers that didn't play the game for more than a few levels.
Tv, tv, tv, sports, tv, tv, call of duty, did we mention there's a dog.
Would you like to buy some mountain dew?
All I want is this, and better blu ray playback, and a blu ray remote.
Well and full ps 1 2 and 3 emulation would be pretty awesome. And external hard drive support. And good media playback. And mkv playback (yeah probably never gonna happen from sony).
I couldn't have possibly predicted this would blow up in your face Ubisoft.
Top planning on this one.
