^People in general are just panicky and stupid. The numbers HAVE been pretty low, admittedly, but it's apparently only because people assumed the Vita should have had a generation's worth of AAA games right out of the gates.

It's been a little slow the last few months, but then EVERY CONSOLE IN EXISTENCE goes through dry patches. For whatever reason, the Vita has just become the whipping boy.

I fully endorse those disagrees.

It's a terrible, terrible idea.

Yes, because if you don't have busty, nubile women fighting in bikini's, the only other option is the butch lesbian dressed like a lumberjack...

Not every game....as in what? You mean like the few indie games a year that don't attempt to exploit our predisposition toward violence and scantily clad women to sell the product?

Just imagine, if they combined the two.

Best selling novel of all time!?

^Seriously, one of the best narratives the industry has to offer.

Also I gotta say, very good list. All those other games are excellent as well, especially Amalur. It's a real shame about that whole fiasco.

^It's true. It's such a broken system. If you ever say anything some douchebags disagree with (because GOD FORBID we disagree with each other every once in a while) then you're not just looking at a few disagrees most of the time. You're looking at minus bubbles...for NO good reason whatsoever. Your voice is essentially being censored because some dick out there doesn't think people should have dissenting opinions...

It's actually pretty great. If you don't want to take my word for it, this is one of the few negative reviews for the game, actually. In fact, the game has been getting mostly 8's, 9's and even perfect 10's from other publications.

N'oh my god...

It's just so hard for me to get excited about zombie games, what with zombies being in pretty much everything these days....even non-zombie games.

This one is sounding pretty sweet, though.

That video just gave me type two adult-onset diabetes.

What's weird is that nothing Brevik said was all that outrageous or incendiary.

I really think the Diablo 3 backlash has (rightfully) bruised a lot of egos within the new team and Jay was just lashing out...

Though that's not an excuse. He's still a giant douche.

It's sad that developers have to think like this. In a perfect world, consumers would be more open-minded and devs wouldn't have to worry about cultural biases and regional stereotyping (on both sides of the pond).

It would not be so upsetting to me if I didn't know that the drops were artificially tweaked to play into the auction house.

...and by god, you must be very, very lucky, because after hours and hours and hours spent taking my Monk through Act I of Inferno, I have made a remarkably small amount of progress.

I have seen ONE legendary drop in my 150 hours of play time. At this rate, the amount of hours it would take to manually assemble a set of equipment th...

Yeah, I agree. I've been saying the same thing. Once the novelty of "console games on a handheld" wears off, people are just going to want some unique games they can't get anywhere else.

And I promise the novelty will wear off quick, if it hasn't already.

I just can't get into this game.

I don't say this very often, but I kinda think there's TOO MUCH fighting in Dust. The mechanics are actually pretty good, but the way they have the hordes of enemies set up means that you are basically forced to fight wave after wave of monsters in every single area you enter and reenter, even if all you're trying to do is explore. It got really tiring for me really quickly.

It was definitely a stupid, arrogant thing for that dev to say.

Though don't get me wrong. I actually think the way Westerners review Japanese games IS THE RIGHT WAY TO REVIEW GAMES -- a review is meant weigh the pros and cons of a given game and award a score accordingly. It's just that big AAA Western games are not afforded the same critical eye most of the time.

As much as I love Bethesda's games, given the amount of problems with not only the...

Of course, they mean as opposed to putting a wealth of content and unlockables in the FINISHED product to begin with. God forbid they ever do THAT anymore...

Pretty cool boxart. Really looking forward to the game.

I'm past the point of arguing with the haters that seem to invade EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE concerning the game, even when it's something as trivial as the boxart...

I've said it time and time again. There's a TON of value in the Vita, but it doesn't change the fact that, for a lot of people, $250 seems to be too high a price to pay for a portable gaming device.

It might very well be the ailing world economy or the current "mobile gaming" fad providing some temporary competition for the market, but regardless, the problem is most likely not that people think the Vita isn't worth $250. It's that they just don&...
