Admittedly, when they started falling behind, they did some great stuff for consumers like backwards compatibility. However, it seems like they have went ahead and shit the bed by going all in on games as a service and by churning out as little first party content as possible, while relying on gamers to only buy third party games. Too bad.
At the time, I loved halo for the co-op campaign. Me and my brother always played together. Loved halo until 3, which was a little lackluster campaign wise. After that, the series never recaptured me. Bought the og xbox specifically for it.
They will work on whatever interests them for the right money. They also want to have their own ips, but can't afford to do so full on yet. They have stated this.
Its tough to be a contractor. The only way for stability is to get hired on at whatever company you are working at. If not, you are there at the whim of the company.
These will be a day one purchase for me. Thanks to pqube for these. Still need a few more vita games to finish off the collection, then time to whittle the backlog!
To be fair, it's an awesome device. It's one of the funniest systems I have owned in over 30 years of gaming. Collecting games for it is fun as well. It is also shown that vita owners BUY GAMES. At least the hardcore ones. It missed the mark for mainstream success, but people still love it.
Although there are trolls and immature people on the forums for sure, you are going to have to deal with differing opinions on subjects. Just as you are voicing your opinion against these guys, they should be afforded the same opportunity. When dealing with the gaming audience, there is going to be a varied demographic, and not all are responsible adults. Don't be so sensitive, take what you read with a grain of salt, and most of all, dont take it personal.
