Really?

Acting like you've moved on and "last gen" was "back in the day".

I'm sure the game will be great.

But really, this is obvious hype. I'd sooner believe R* thinking GTV5 won't sell well because its too taboo.

Wrong.

Well, there is next to nothing known about it, aside from it being a Star Wars game. We heard a lot about what they want to do, which really doesn't mean much.

Then there is the sale to Disney and what it means for a game(1313) scheduled for release around the same time as the new movies. It certainly isn't too late for them to throw in a lightsaber for old times sake.

Like I said, is it interesting, sure. But gone are the days that I take dev hype as...

We'll have to see the direction Disney takes with the lore. Whether they go with the classic tone or the prequel tone.

The haphazard use of the Star Wars license led to a plethora of crap Star Wars games. If not for that license LucasArts would have folded years ago.

As far as 1313 goes I can't see how anyone could be excited about it. Interested? Sure, it was interesting. But that was crafted demo showing what they hope to do, not really anything t...

Kind of hard to sell overpriced map packs with a map editor.

Why no mention of price in the review?

Its 299$ on newegg, if anyone was wondering.

No it won't.

Okay, this is getting a bit old already.

You should be glad. I'm glad console gamers don't have to put up with insufferable always-online DRM.

Its hard to articulate how frustrating it can be to be kicked from a single-player game. Its a stark reminder your experience isn't your own in D3. They expect our trust to buy the game and give none in return. What we did get was an average ARPG that took 10 years to make.

My first thought playing D3 was, I really wish I could play D3.

I actually downgraded to 7 myself. Performance-wise Win 8 was great (aside from a couple issues) but its just plain ugly and really doesn't feel like a desktop OS.

You mean the game I rented for 60$ from Blizzard?

Okay, that sucks.

Didn't really care about it going to PS4/PS3. But that does upset me.

1080 will likely be the res of next gen games. PCs have been capable of higher for a while now.

Will PS4 have incredible looking games, sure. But I don't think you understand what "ultra settings" means.

On the PS4 the games (like always) will be configured to run with best performance possible with high quality visuals. If you take a PC with the same specs as the PS4 you would be able to max out the settings, which will cause the performance t...

1. Win 8

2. RAM is just silly cheap.

3. A 3yo could upgrade the RAM in a PC.

Seriously, RAM is not a great argument for the PS4. There are better ones.

Windows Vista was a system hog, but a decent processor and enough ram and you could plow through it just fine. Win 7 and 8 (especially 8) on the other hand have no effect on games.

It all comes down to how you frame the argument. Console developers have been able to do a lot with less for years. So tailoring a game specifically for that system may produce higher quality for certain games.

However, if you are talking simply raw power, PC wins every time. There...

Yea, same thing happened with Egosoft's fanbase when X-Rebirth was was announced as a Steam-works title.

All these folks posting on the internet about not having internet. Strange.

That and apparently Steam requires the blood of your first born to activate a game, pretty scary stuff.

I wouldn't call that praise.

They insisted it was peaceful? And their propaganda supports this? Whew, here I thought they were testing nukes and firing rockets. Sure glad that's cleared up.

Except A:CM actually had hints of promise. This always looked horrible.
