C'mon, using inflation... I was only talking about MSRP i'm sure some places have increased sales taxes too... But w/e
And as for cost of development, I mean a lot of the cost there is increased cost of marketing not actual development. For example Biosock infinate and Destiny both claimed record creation costs but then when asked about it they both admitted that a large portion of there purported totals weren't from the development si...
1. microsoft could make a bold move and come out with an xbox one slim design with no disk drive for $199.
You can buy a USB external Blu-ray for 35$. In bulk I doubt MS is paying more than 10$ it's not going to drop the price by much. Why would you ask to give consumers less options this type of decision only benefits Microsoft by forcing people to buy digital. This has basically no benefit for the consumer.
2. buy capcom or some high profile publ...
When exactly were games more expensive?
And making games are largely cheaper due to faster computers and far more mature development software as well as a far larger pool of skilled people who know how to create games driving the cost of labor down. This is especially true for existing studios who have already invested in the needed equipment. And Overwatch is the cheapest of games. It's got a handful of maps no single player and it's only got a few hundred lines...
Is that seriously the best you can come up with to hurt my feelings? LoL I been saying things I know people won't like for years and this is by far the weakest retort I think I have ever received. Well there was that one guy who told me I wasn't "a gamer" because I don't buy EA games and proceeded to repeatedly PM me that was pretty lame. But at least he made a reasonably intelligent reply.
But keep trying bud, maybe next time!
I'm not saying that isn't true.
I'm just saying the beauty of the story was that humanity was doomed. The whole title "The Last of Us" implies that it was the last of humanity. Let the story go, it was amazing. Naughty Dog can make other great games. Let TLOU stand on it's own as a masterpiece of storytelling. Don't cheapen with sequels.
Thats what i'm saying.
P.S. I knew that post would be unpopular...
"No, it's a vocal minority which are making it out like there is a lack of equality by ignoring any and all cultural, political, and social reasons why inequality exists, all while demanding others change despite the fact the others they're demanding change from aren't actually the ones oppressing them in any way."
Well I agree that it's a complicated issue that has cultural and political and social reasons. That doesn't make discrimination ri...
I tend to agree.
FFXV is a game I will buy but I have to be honest the game looks like a sausage fest. The idea of a bunch of spoiled rich kids (a prince nonetheless) taking daddys Audi (why do they have to model it after a real car? That's super lame like the Mercedes DLC in Mario Kart) on an all boys road trip just seems lil gay lol (not that there is anything wrong with being gay I'm all for equality it was 100% meant as a joke)... It doesn't appeal to me a...
Actually I feel it's entirely the other way around. The majority want to move forward and embrace equality. It's a vocal minority that are regressive and want to dismantle civil rights and go back to a time where they can be bigots and discriminate against people.
*there are spoilers*
Ya know, I really hope it's not. The magical thing about Joel's decision at the end was the idea that it was humanity's last chance. And that the people that Joel killed were the last scientists with the knowledge to make the cure. That was what made his decision so heart wrenching.
For me making TLOU 2 would be like making Uncharted 5 staring Nathan Drake with a cheesy oh he didn't really die explanation.
I don't know if this has anything to do with anything. I would say "I highly doubt it" but there was this article a while ago.

I just don't have a problem with that. In fact it makes it more appealing to me. And as far as realism goes. That just isn't even something I think about. I don't want to seem like i'm a person who doesn't get into games because I definitely do. But a link from one game to another doesn't effect that at all. Like having a Crash Bandicoot easter egg mini-game in U4 had no diminishment of enjoyment or emersion. I thought it was great, I love easter eggs and things ...
I think it would be very cool to easter egg it like that. Savage Starlight was pretty cool and it had interesting characters. I always liked cartoon crossovers and the like. When characters from one cartoon would appear in other cartoon universes. Something that was popular ironically enough in comic book cartoons like Batman and Justice League which was nothing but a crossover etc.
Personally I'm hoping it's Savage Starlight. A game based on the comic book from TLOU.
It's unfortunate that now people are defending micro-transactions... As if DLC wasn't bad enough.
I'll just assume this award is given out based on number of zombies killed.
@DragonKnight
It's a video game, if the developers want they can have an unpunchable baby one shot Drake. Why are you even getting so up in arms? Because a woman can beat Drake? You claim to support diversity yet you're in every topic talking about how it's some sort of agenda that there is any kind of woman or minority in a game.
What's the big deal, why do you even care? Video games aren't reality, and it doesn't have to be ...
@bruce755 Oh you mean a secret agenda?
When is it not forced in the view of "these people"? It seems that their perspective is that it's not possible for anyone to actually want to add a woman or a minority of their own free thought. The only possible reason is some sort of agenda. The only people who feel like it's forced are those who are offended. If people don't mind diversity then why are we having this discussion?
Ya know, a lot of martial arts are entirely based around using peoples strength and momentum against them. And I encourage you to watch women's weightlifting. While a woman can never reach the maximum strength potential of a man. Women can be far stronger than your average man or even your above average man. And that goes the same for reflexes and reaction times.
This is a stupid development. All it's going to mean is that the two companies are going to constantly be trying to outdo each other leaving console owners feeling like they need to upgrade before many people will have even bought enough games to have gotten the value out of the previous console. And anyone thinking that in this kind of war the older generations won't get left behind as Sony and Microsoft encourage the developers to push the limits so people will want to buy the upg...
