I don't necessarily hate the games the guy works on, but I think that he is given a ridiculous amount of personal credit when it should really go to the ENTIRE TEAM HE WORKS WITH.
He really appeals to the "bro" crowd, though, so he is always the face of whatever game he works on.
Anyway, glad to hear he's making games again, I suppose, but he and all his fanclub of journalists just need to STFU.
Wait, are people really disagreeing because they clicked thinking this was a new Timesplitters game?
This is a pretty cool looking game, I thought.
To be perfectly honest, I don't like the modded models either.
I wish there were some modded models that preserved the game's context, but more often than not it's just...waifu overload.
If it is a beta, then people NEED TO LET SONY KNOW that these prices are outrageous. That's the point of a beta, for god's sake. As some of the more level-headed commenters have suggested, those prices probably would stay the same if Sony and the other publishers thought they could get away with it.
It's the nature of the beast. These companies are NOT your friends, dammit.

That's not the same scenario in any way, shape or form. That is literally the same character being randomly switched to a female, so it would make no contextual sense.
You play as a different "Link" in (almost) every Zelda game, because the story being told is exactly as it's namesake implies: a Legend.
It would not necessarily be unfaithful to the character to make Link a female.
That being said...
At the end of the day, I'm just more baffled than I am enraged. Pewdiepie makes some of the most ridiculously stupid crap I have ever seen, and yet...he has the power to make even Flappy Bird a cultural phenomenon. How stupid are we getting that we give a man like Pewdiepie this much power and money?
It is ridiculously standard for the first 20 hours or so, but it becomes one of the better MMO's out there once you get deep into the dungeons and PvP. The telegraph system is certainly a step up from the common formula and it's about the only thing differentiating it from other MMO's.
Luckily, it makes the game fun enough to slog through the more generic stuff.
I agree with Prime. This is just out of most people's comfort zones at this point.
REAL survival horror has been very hard to come by for probably the last decade or so, and even back in the day you were given at least some kind of means to destroy your enemy.
It's just hard for gamers to wrap their heads around not being able to blast their adversaries away because that is almost entirely what we have been doing since the dawn of gaming.
There is a joke in there....but I will keep it classy.
I don't think it's an insult to Zelda fans.
It looks like a Dynasty Warriors game; as in boring and repetitive, and I will never understand it's appeal, but then that series has always had a cult following to it, so I'm sure those folks will enjoy it.
Why would that be insulting? It's not like they're trying to pass it off as canon or anything.
I think you guys misunderstand. I'm sure Septic is not saying that he would like it if allies ran crazy through the game world, causing you to constantly fail.
In a game this detail-oriented, though, it was weird to see that the best solution Naughty Dog could come up with was to treat allies as if they were imaginary friends.
Not a gigantic deal. Just one of those things that seems very out of place in a game so incredible.
We're going to get disagreed to death, Highlife, but I'm with you. I don't want all that cheesy, over-the-top melodrama applied to anything Nintendo.
Yeah, that Batman...good god.
Though I have to say, I'm a little worried about him keeping his "no kill" policy intact with that tank.
My guess is that IGN is nothing but a big, fat, journalistic joke at this point.
Keep it classy, IGN.
I don't think "it doesn't" is really an appropriate answer.
There are levels of violence in video games that I don't personally think should exist, but it has more to do with context and sub-text than it has to do with the actual depiction of violence. That DOESN'T mean that I ever think censorship is the answer, but I have played things that have disturbed me in the worst way possible, sure. I have also played things that have disturbed me in the be...
Jesus. There is nothing sexual about looking at a bunch of scantily clad, seemingly underaged girls posing provocatively for our enjoyment.
Why would your mind even go there!?
It seems that the one thing people still don't understand about the Souls games is that since there are so many different ways to play the game, it stands to reason that people are sometimes going to have difficulty with different parts of the games.
No disrespect to you, helghast, but EVERY time anyone says anything about anything being difficult in a Souls game, there is always a response to the tune of "OMG HOW!? THAT'S THE EASIEST PART IN THE GAME!!"
I was going to ask the exact same thing...
He is the worst kind of interviewer: the kind that thinks they are as interesting as the interviewee.
He also happens to be the worst kind of comedian: the kind that is not funny.
It is still a problem even with SSD's to this day.
I know...I just reinstalled the game a month ago.
Rule 25?
