Because Nintendo supported the Wii U?
I played it because it was a PS+ game. Its an alright game. Nowhere near as close as the internally developed Devil May Cry games, but at the same time its not total trash. In fact it may be the best hardcore action game developed outside of Japan. But that's still a far cry the top tier Japanese hardcore action games.
It had some interest boss battles which I appreciated, but overall, it comfortably sits in the 'average' category. If it wasn't related to th...
Sins of the Father is absolutely legendary. One of the greatest songs ever.
RPG elements? Grinding? Randomized loot? UGH! This is literally not what Halo should be about!
Give me a concise, rollercoaster single player adventure, and then add in a great MP and co-op horde mode. But following after all these 'live service' games grinding just to waste the player's time? I'm out.
Shenmue 3 is confirmed not the end of what Suzuki has planned. If this game doesn't sell well however, it may be the end of the series. Let's hope not!
Polish doesn't matter? Excuse me? What about all the hate towards Sonic 2006? Or Mass Effect Andromeda? How about Assassin's Creed Unity? If polish doesn't matter then why did Ubisoft give away free games as an apology?
Think about some of the most polished games we've ever seen, Super Mario World, A Link to the Past, Metal Gear Solid 3, Uncharted 2, The Last of Us, Ocarina of Time, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Gears of War 3, Super Smash Bros, Resident Evi...
I can't wait for Shenmue 3 as well! But Suzuki has Shenmue 4 planned, which may or may not be the finale. If that's the case, don't expect to kill Lan Di in Shenmue 3. Unless of course, you kill him at the end of S3, and there's a plot twist where you find out who's been pulling the strings the entire time (Lan Di's boss), and then you go after him in S4! :P
I wouldn't play this game even for free. Ugh, loot / grind fest with no pay off and plenty of long loads? PASS.
Mercy ban. He should be thankful.
lol? He wasn't a bad character, but no where near a great one either. Just a generic hero guy who wants to do nice things for people. Sure, that makes him likable, but not outstanding. There was no depth to him, he was a one-note guy.
"A cult killed my son, so now I will get revenge on all of them! Along the way I'll do a few nice deeds."
The end.
I have the first Crackdown for 360, didn't enjoy it much. It felt like a barebones, sandbox shooter, which could be fun, but the design decisions didn't appeal to me. Orb hunting became boring after an hour, the epitome of filler collect-a-thon that I got sick of during the N64 era. I know they added in co-op multiplayer, which I never got a chance to try out, I'm guessing its much more fun with 3 other players online.
Crackdown 2, I avoided because we all know ...
The commercial is better than the game itself. Terry Crews is wasted on this game. :(
The old Vestibule meme still alive, eh? lol

You believe FFXI had a simultaneous launch on both PS2 and Xbox 360? Seriously? Here are the actual launch dates. Clearly not the same time:
PlayStation 2
JP: May 16, 2002
NA: March 23, 2004
Microsoft Windows
JP: November 7, 2002
NA: October 28, 2003

Xbox 360

@Razzer, thanks for posting that link, I watched the 2015 trailer, which looked really cool. Then I watched the IGN real gameplay from Forbes link, and it looks like a completely different game. What a sham, what an embarrassment, what a shame.
I feel bad for the people who beLIEved in MS or in this game. So bland and boring.
GamePass is $0 a month / year? Its truly free? Does that mean all TV shows on HULU are free? All movies on Netflix are also free? Really?
So when you subscribe to Xbox Live Gold, does that make online play free? Games with Gold is also free?
What's even more sad, is that you said "i don't care." Why don't you care? Why don't you want an amazing Crackdown game, instead of an average or sub-par Crackdown game! You should care! You should wa...
It will be BC, this was clear back in 2013 when Mark Cerny announced X86 for PS4. Prior to that no gaming console was using that instructional language, that PC developers were accustomed to, they had to use esoteric hardware (PS2 and PS3), and were very frustrated with it.
PS4 was the ripping off the bandaide that had to be done at time point, yes we lost PS3 BC, but moving to X86 long term was worth it in the end. If they had stuck with Cell and PowerPC then it would have...
Poor article, he writes about the touchpad without even acknowledging that it is in fact TWO buttons and not ONE. I don't know why no one else mentions it. Left-click, Right-click, which is one more button than other controllers have.
With that attitude, no one will want to play with you online.
I really wish this game was good. There haven't been any more great stealth action games since Phantom Pain.
Square-Enix rushed this game out one year early. I guess they didn't like what they saw, panicked and shoved it out the door to die. S-E needs to be more like current Capcom and give games time to become excellent, like Monster Hunter World, RE2, and DMC5.
What a shame, there was some real potential here.
