To me there are several other parties I'd point the finger at before blaming devs/publishers when it comes to online passes.
First off, It'd probably help if retailers who sell secondhand weren't asking stupidly high prices for pre-owned games to begin with. Where the F does Gamestop get off thinking they can give someone $15-$20 on trade in only to turn around and sell that game for $45-$50? The fact that you end up paying almost as much as you would for a new ...

"Good point. Devs don't necessarily LOSE money when someone buys a used game because they can't guarantee that the game would have been bought new otherwise. If anything, devs gain from used game sales since a person may buy the sequel to a game Day 1 if he bought the original used and really enjoyed it. "
You are absolutely wrong. So much for logic. Even if a person buys used and enjoys the game, there's no guarantee that ...
It depends on how you look at it. When you consider that they only make money off of new game sales, anything sold secondhand is a missed opportunity for the dev/publisher. This way even if someone buys used, they can still turn a small profit by forcing that person to purchase something from them. This is simply a way for devs/pubs to stick their hand into the used VG market. I admit it blows for folks who buy used or folks who rent games, but the fact of the matter is that if you have e...
Title should read "Here's What You May Have Missed if You're Blind, Dumb and Deaf". What a joke of a website. LOL @ "HOOKERS". Hahahahha
I'd like to know what their excuse is for the lack of quality titles over the past five years.
Folks such as yourself are a dying breed. These days all most gamers care about is the online aspect of a game and unfortunately what that has meant is that story modes have taken a back seat to multiplayer. Simply put, the reason most stories blow these days is because the devs don't put any or nearly as much effort into them anymore because it's not what most customers are interested in. It's gotten to the point where SP sometimes acts solely as a training mode of sorts for t...
*ALERT* *ALERT*, shitty website desperate for hits using sensationalist headline. *BEWARE THE FAIL*
Disagree to agree to disagree. Just don't tell me you disagree with my disagreeing to agree to disagree.
LOL. Where are all the butthurt disagrees coming from? The man is right, the visuals look like garbage.
Who cares if it's a Telltale Episodic title? What does that have to do with the awful visuals? You're defending it because the studio is planning on releasing the game piece by piece in an effort to keep players coming back? That's just stupid. The only reason this is being released as episodic content is because if everything were packaged together, the...
I disagree.
Did DICE really need to come out and explain the obvious? Watch bruddahman explain it:
"It's on two discs because the shit don't fit on one DVD. kthxbai".
One reason that folks with brains should stay away from gamingbolt.com, because of dumbass articles like these.
I don't care if it's a handheld or if it's the PS3's "little brother", given the number of technical advancements there have been over the past five years, I'd almost expect games on the Vita to look as good if not slightly better than what the PS3 originally launched with back in '06.
Namco is the publisher here, not the developer. And FWIW, what are we supposed to say the next time a Namco title receives DLC, because it's bound to happen?
Author of this article is an idiot, bruddahman proves it.
The question we should really be asking ourselves is if 360 owners are pissed about the fact that Microsoft is blowing a bunch of cash on a 30 day headstart for some multiplat DLC when they should be pumping that money into their first party studios.
I'm split here. On one hand you're getting a lot of content for a decent price, but on the other hand, the games being offered are either mediocre (Fable III and Halo Wars) or will be irrelevant shortly (Gears 2 and Halo 3). I have to think that you can probably find most of if not all of these titles in a bargain bin somewhere. My guess is that most folks would probably prefer a $50 discount rather than a bunch of outdated games.
The most telling clue in this video is the look on that guy's face. He really seems to be enjoying himself. LOL.
Let's face it, when it comes to using motion controls for games that require 3D movement, a control device in each hand works best (Move, Wii). Perhaps if MS offered some sort of Navigation controller just for your left hand, but holding a controller made for two hands with just one hand ends up feeling awkward and weird after a while. This video is a c...
Sony owns the Resistance IP. If the main series gets handed off to another dev, it'll be one of SCE's choosing assuming they don't opt to sell the franchise to another publisher. Those of you talking about it going to Activision can calm the F down.
Pathetic site desperate for hits is pathetic.
