'Pay to Win' is the wrong term.

It's an easy way out for devs really. You still have to play, put in hours, be decent to 'win'.

But look at something like Rift. The devs swear the game never has been and never will be pay to win. Even the ads say 'no tricks, no traps'.

Yet, their ever increasing lockboxes offer the top currency, many close to best in slot items (essences etc) and they always have the second top rai...

Apparently the name began in 2009, as part of a hoax zombie virus. No idea why/how Sony are using it now.

Sure that's not a fake trailer? Looks terribly unprofessional.

Game sounds good but looks bad. DayZ has a crisp look, nice realistic lighting, good textures.

This looks like it was made in a 10 year old engine (doesn't look half as good as Planetside).

No we need another JSR game. Not a dodgy looking knockoff (yes I know it has other influences).

The devs should hang their heads imo. Influences, imitation/flattery etc is one thing but it's pretty sad their is barely an original idea in this thing.

Simon Templeman should be on that list.

Did you not play the cel shaded Prince of Persia? The prince was Drake, no different style, no different voice, not even his mannerisms differed. It was the worst thing about that otherwise good game.

They 'shipped' a million consoles from one MS warehouse to another on launch day. Then conveniently included those million in their shipped sales figures ;)

Have to agree. And the two nerdlings hosting that gameplay stream couldn't have been less likeable either.

Great PR start...

In terms of people thinking it shows they are 'better' than others/epeen yes for sure.

But for giving you something to aim for once a game is finished, they are great. The extend the replayability and likely reduce the reselling and trading of games a little as well.

Good article. And it's not the fact gamers are owed the trophy dude above ^

Take games that require online achievements as an example. Many gamers outside of the US will never be able to get certain achievements simply because of lag or in many of EA games, terrible servers.

Add that to low selling games (NBA Live is the laggiest POS Ive ever seen online and to make matters worse, there are about 12 people who actually bought the game) and you will almost...

Hope the grain filter is an optional one.

By the time the PS4 version is out, there will have been 1+ years since the original release. Stop crying. There should NOT be an upgrade.

If you bought the PS3 version, you got exactly what you paid for.

TXAA is a blurry, overrated method.

Where are you 7 people who have negged me now? Butthurt it's not coming to PS4 so you neg? LMAO, PC only.

Nowhere have they said this is a PS4 game. Likely PC exclusive for quite a while.

Lots of mention of PS4 but Sony, when hinting have only said PC sorry guys.

I had Paypal charge a credit card that I had deleted (all traces of) 12 months earlier. I even threatened (and genuinely considered) legal action, but decided to simply close my account instead.

They also (along with Ebay) took money from my account from an Ebay sale when the buyer claimed he never received the item (I am fine with these rules). When that buyer was found to be a fraud and have his account banned, they still didn't refund my money.

Paypal ...

Now if only Hideo would unlock the secret that gives another 10 hours of gameplay, VR missions and new skins, it would be considered better value.

The car models are ripped out of other games so that's pretty much why they look so good.

But with mods, this game is nothing more than a program for taking nice screenshots.

The game itself runs like crap, is buggy and boring.

Brolin looks too old for the main lead but he'd probably be the pick of anyone mentioned.
Jackman is too obvious and I actually think he is really overrated. He struggles with the American accent and emotional scenes.
Anyone saying Ellen Page needs to wake up...she is 27.
Liam Neeson is too old for the role.
Gerard Butler can't act and his American accent is hopeless.
