this is a multiplayer game right?
Looks pretty cool.
I've never played a witcher game, really lookin forward to this one.
Cracked consoles are already widely available in China. This wont be the boon for MS and Sony we may think. The average Chinese gamer won't be able to afford a console with $40-$60 games. Most young people don't make nearly enough to afford that. I can tell you from having lived there, if you want an Xbox/PS3 you can already fairly easily get one, and also you get them cracked and games are often under $2USD. The consoles themselves are expensive, but people won't buy them without...
yeah agreed. The infected are not as frightening as I thought they'd be, compared to the human enemies I find them much easier to beat.
Good piece. My take on it is they simply did it to stop the bad press. Virtually everyone had only heard bad things about MS since it launched pre-E3. First it was the "TV, TV, TV' debacle and then their pre-E3 policy announcements. They had a solid month's worth of bad press in the gaming media and we all saw how it affected their reputation.
Poll after poll online showing people were abandoning their brand loyalty in droves, Sony lambasting them to cheers from...
PS4 easily is better IMO.
@rajman
Yeah I believe there was a story a while back about certain parts of games being unshareable, presumably for spoiler reasons.
Haha exactly what i was thinking.
Everyone says Nintendo is in dire straights but completed ignores its dominance in the handheld market.
Nobody will care
N4G is just full of these BS articles from crappy sites "5 reasons to X" and "10 reasons to Y" etc etc. They're all bullshit hit grabbers.
I suspected this might come. At least they make it valuable by giving you Drive Club for free with it.
@zod18
exactly what I thought when I first saw it- PS2-esque. I actually really like it, its a nice looking piece of hardware.
I think a lot of people are melting down over nothing. Nobody should care about a no-name website's review score of a game they haven't played. They're clearly doing to court controversy and get hits on their site.
Their opinion doesn't effect the quality of the game whatsoever.
Is this game going to be really scary?
That guy has lost it. He started all positive then did a complete 180 by the end of his response.
Because for those 80 million plus playstation 3's it wasn't an issue, you could buy a game from anywhere in the world and it would work on your console.
More fuel to the growing negative sentiment. Region locks are from a bygone era, we don't need or want them.
I'll probably end up with every launch title bar Knack.
Looks great but not really my style of game.
The problem is, all this would depend on a stable, high speed solid Internet connection. I can tell you right now most people don't have that. My home network is like a roller coaster of connectivity issues, whether they are the fault of my ISP or home infrastructure.
Eg. sometimes I can't play games online because my router plays up, other times my speed is limited due to network congestion, sometimes my gf is downloading movies, or uploading other stuff which kills ...
