LOL...funny thing is, that turned out to be more and more of a lie, as they continued to remove features with each iteration.
It's really no different than what Amazon, Apple and Google are doing. Of course, since it's MS, people are going to attack it...at first anyway...just because.
Yes, because Dairy Queen only sells dairy products, McDonald's only sells hamburgers, and Nike only sells shoes.
Grow up, and stop posting stupid sh**.
Idiots. They'd rather see it fail completely, rather than take a bit of a loss on it, and make a bundle that would annihilate the competition. I was in GameStop yesterday, and a little boy, maybe 5-6 y.o., was playing on the WiiU kiosk, and was having a really hard time with the controller. His dad (who had just traded in TLOU...so he owns a PS3) finally says "C'mon, let's go...we're not getting one of those, the controller's too big and heavy for you." If ...
busytoad, GTFO with that nonsense. It's no different with Sony, Nintendo, EA, Activision, etc. Whether it's a software or a firmware update, a TOS serves the same purpose for them ALL...it's not just that "Microsoft plays it smart...while the customer is screwed".
Wait....you're calling HERCULES, a Kratos wannabe? WOW. Whatever educational system produced you, needs to be burned to the ground.
"Nothing" can't leave you wishing you could get your money and time back, and/or wipe your memory of a horrible experience.
Really? This isn't a book/cover thing man....it's a movie, and we've seen enough footage from it to form an opinion. I don't even know how the biggest Sony/HS fanboy on the planet could justify defending this garbage. It not only looks worse than the game, from an art standpoint....it looks far worse than any CG animated movie made in the last 10+ years. Hell, FF: The Spirits Within ANNIHILATES this, and it came out 13 YEARS ago.
The thing some people don't seem to understand is that there are different types of updates, and some require you to "Accept" the TOS, so they can't be 100% automatic.
Blaming a DEVELOPER for "no proper online matchmaking" on the WiiU is ridiculous. Nintendo's so far behind the curve in multiplayer gaming arena it's beyond embarrassing.
@ PostMesmeric
For the WiiU, who knows? It's been rumored for several months now that it was in trouble, and could be cancelled on the WiiU. Ubisoft initially denied at least the cancellation rumors...but this doesn't look good. You only need to read the last part of this article to be able to read between the lines on this one:
" "We made the difficult decision to further delay the release of Watch Dogs on Wii U to focus the team's ...
Yeah....I mean, that's the next obvious step. They've put it on the back burner...and turned the burner off. Once they release it on the other platforms, and it sells about 10 million units, they might bother with the WiiU again. But it would be smart to just cancel it, rather than waste anymore resources on a mature game that won't sell on a family-focused platform. ZombiU isn't even close to 1 million yet, and COD:BLOPSII only sold about 200k. You know they'll be...
Well, I figured it would be obvious my comment wasn't entirely serious.....but still, can it really be any weirder than Samus squaring off against the Wii Fit trainer? Snake VS. Mario? The entire series is pretty stupid, if you want to go analyzing it that way.
You can play as a puppy from Nintendogs?
Did anyone else read the interview he did in the recent GameInformer (the one with Evolve on the cover)? His answers to the 1st and 3rd questions, he insults gamers/consumers in the worst ways imaginable...even said we're "irrelevant" and "they don't matter". He went so far as to use heavy profanity in his answers, directed at gamers.
We all need to contact the owners of Gametrailers.com (who broadcasts his weekly show), and let them know how mu...
LOL @ the people above who don't understand the point of layaway. Oh dear...
Hayter is just a hater. :o
I don't know who you THOUGHT you were replying to...but that long, boring comment had nothing at all to do with mine.
BTW, about the "This is a marathon...you don't come in pumping your fist saying where's my crown at the starting line...you prove your worth to everyone by going the distance" part...that's EXACTLY what Sony has done so far this gen, as well as the "gamers", like you, who think Sony can do no wrong. You've already coun...
Such a strange name, Swery. I feel the need to give him some letters. :/
It was almost a carbon copy of what happened with Bungie/MS....just abbreviated. TR was going to be cranking out L4D games for Valve for YEARS, and they knew it.
