@WeskerChildReborned - It's like Buffy and Bayonetta in regards to style and tone. Buffy and Bayonetta are both campy properties with witty dialog, much like what Suda 51 and James Gunn attempted with Lolipop Chainsaw.

@leahcim - I'd be more wary of the fact that game reviews are almost all the same in terms of score and tonally these days. Tom Chick is considered a "Troll", a disgustingly catch-all word for "this guy doesn't agree with me, therefo...

I really wish it was a joke.

Hopefully SEGA is going to take it digital but as of right now it sounds like it won't make it to western markets.

It's really unfortunate but makes sense given Bayonetta 2 was rumored to have been canceled many times in the past and Sega has been clear their focus is on Aliens, Football Manager, Total War and Sonic as far as retail products are concerned.

I'd say that if Anarchy Reigns isn't at E3...

What are you saying here, exactly?

Both articles I've linked to are pretty clear that these are shipped numbers and aren't the number for units sold.

Dualshock Nexus makes no mention of this fact and neither does the title. It should be adjusted to reflect what was actually said during the earnings call and in the report.

They didn't sell three million copies of Max Payne 3. They SHIPPED 3 million copies.

I thought the "change the ending" discussion was over once EA and Bioware made it clear that they aren't changing anything, just expanding on what's already there.

Something they probably would have done in future Mass Effect games anyway, just sooner.

Bungie sacrificed resolution and texture quality for their lighting engine, which is still very impressive. They got better with Reach but not close enough.

343 has some of the best talent the industry has to offer. It makes sense that they'd be able to improve so much visually.

Halo 4 should look quite excellent and the changes they're making to the gameplay have me interested as a Halo fan. I can't wait to see what they have planned for the next...

It's a joke article, guys.

Exactly. While there is certainly a lot of overreaction and unnecessary personal attacks that make it worse for everyone happening within the Mass Effect community, if you take the time to look you'll see various well thought out and completely reasonable explanations on why the endings simply don't work for a vast majority of people.

It would help if instead of writing the entire thing off, the bigger news sites would try and showcase core issues instead of focusing ...

It's not bitching. Especially because the ending for most people hinders the overall enjoyment of the game and the series in a lot of respects.

Games have evolved and shouldn't be seen as the same as playing a game of pong where you lose and move on.

All the time invested and characters we grow to become attached to is a wonderful thing and one of the things that makes video games amazing. This same connection has it's downside of course when we h...

Hey everyone.

This story was originally submitted over two days ago when the incident first took place.

My story was falsely flagged as a duplicate when originally submitted and I guess when the N4G staff resolved the issue they resubmitted and approved the story.

I DID NOT personally submit the story 15 hours ago(as of this comment) because that would have been INSANE given the amount of new information regarding Doom 4.

So reviews for all popular things should never be written then, right?

It's good to provide people with multiple outlets to see help people get a broad idea of how a game is, especially if they tend to ignore the big sites.

But, if you'd like, I can certainly stop reviewing 'big' games and review bottom of the barrel bullshit just to be one of the few that does.

@dangert12 Hey uh, you do know that all three of the console makers give the bigger video game sites consoles right? That's how they play and cover games. They also tend to get dev kits to play non-retail code too.

It's understandable to think "oh man, they be bribing reviewers with free xboxes" but these devices have to be covered and Microsoft announced at the same time that those new Xboxes would be in stores the following week so it makes sense that they...

Why is Saints Row 2 a "God awful game"? Try providing some context to why you hold such an opinion instead of sounding like a fool.

For example, I really liked those really badass moments in GTA4 where all your friends would call you up to go play terrible minigames. So badass.

Whereas in Saints Row 2 I thought it was absolutely terrible that such activities weren't included. I mean, why would I want to participate in demolition derbies and comm...

This guy is a total nerd. Not like like us, fine gentlemen.

Now if you'll excuse me, someone talked trash about *Exclusive Game* so I have to go destroy him in the digital realm instead of just playing video games.

Carmack is never out of his element on anything. He knows game development better than anyone else in the industry.

Why would Sony go down that hole again? There's a reason LA Noire went from exclusive to multiplatform and why Rockstar owns the IP. Sony was being lead on by Bondi brass for ages until they had enough and Rockstar stepped in and took over.

5324d ago 5 agree0 disagreeView comment

It's been in development for 7 years, actually.

Also, Rockstar owns the LA Noire IP so hopefully they make a compelling sequel and fix the serious issues with the original.

This is funny, you know, because older Xboxes overheat easily.

Also, it would be really awesome if this website would credit the source of the image:

I mean, it kinda seems like this website just pulls stuff from Reddit or other sites without sourcing it. That's never cool, friend.

Bethesda owns everything Fallout now and the agreement was, as you said, that Interplay would be allowed to make a Fallout MMO.

As it turns out Interplay is broke (again!) but continue to use the prospect of a Fallout MMO to continue on and potentially gain funding to continue on with a nearly non-existent project.

Zenimax, tired of waiting around for something that at this point will never happen have been trying to use litigation to force Interplay's ha...
