I don't understand why people think Demon's Souls is so difficult. Just plan your attacks people. Take two seconds to think about what you are going to do, and then execute your plan.
I concur with that statement. Online trophies absolutely ruin team based games. I mean it is hard enough to find good teamwork in the first place, but it is absolutely impossible to find teamwork when everyone on your team is trying to take down a dropship with binoculars.
Why is this guy so hard up for subscription services?
Why not focus the hate on Bobby Kotick? Regardless of what you believe attorneys should be paid, Bobby did not pay what he owed. The attorney is just trying to get what is owed to her firm. By the way, Kotick gets over $15 million a year in salary and bonuses.
If you HAVE to go with short notice then you are likely going to be gone more than 15 minutes anyway.
Bathroom breaks are easy enough to manage. Just go to the restroom right before you start a gaming session, and take a short break every few hours. If you have an uncontrollable bladder then that is just life. Either take a few deaths or exit early, do your business, and do something else for the remainder of the 15 minutes. If you have to answer the door then answer the door. If you are a good host you will probably spend more than 15 minutes with your guests.
I fully support this idea. If you know you are not going to be able to complete a match, don't join it. It is as simple as that. Leaving early makes for unbalanced gameplay later in the match, and affects everyone else. If you have to leave early for an emergency in real life, then chances are you are going to be away from the console for more than 15 minutes anyway.
Being sued by your own attorney is epic fail worthy.
He asked two people, and one of them said yes. That is how he arrived at that figure.
Yeah if the industry as a whole starts embracing subscription fees for online gaming then I am either going to resign myself to buying single player experiences exclusively, or just start playing chess in the park.
Roughly 30% of the people on my list have it as well (myself included).
I have not reached the point of boycotting the entire company yet, but to be honest I am getting close. I absolutely will not purchase a game that has a subscription cost though.
"I will not purchase any game that has a subscription cost for online play", says AssassinHD.
It isn't really fair to consider the ISP connection. That has nothing to do with any publisher or platform holder. If you are going to count that then you might as well include the cost of electricity. Why stop there though? You have to be alive to play games, so you might as well include the cost of food and water. Oh and you must have a house in which to play, so I guess you can count your mortgage/rent.
"Sony gives me game for Hard Drive I won't admit that I didn't send to them."
^^^
That headline is just as valid. Either Sony screwed up and lost his HDD, claiming they never received it, or he simply never sent it, and lost it himself. It is a he said/they said situation. Either case is equally plausible.
Edit: Before any of you accuse me of blindly siding with Sony, I want to explain my position. Once long ago I worked at...
It is GoFanboy.com. They are absolutely desperate for hits.
That proves to me that you never beat Prototype.
As much as I like Cole, I am afraid Alex has the upper hand. Cole is basically powerless if there is no energy around, and water is lethal to him. Alex is stronger, faster, and very likely smarter than Cole. Remember Alex is not some random thug. He is a geneticist with an unlimited capacity for learning. It would not take him long to figure out how to exploit Cole's weaknesses.
Even if Cole attacks Alex from range, Alex can close the distance quickly, and he has regene...
OMG now I know what an an aneurysm feels like. It is bad enough that I have to sift through Top 5-10 lists about useless crap in the first place, but this takes the cake. The author couldn't be bothered to write up an article about real useless crap so he just pulled fake useless crap right out of his posterior.
No I understand why developers and publishers might be hard up for a subscription service, but why is Michael Pachter? Every third word that comes out of his mouth these days is "subscription".
