And if you don't have internet, what then?
You shouldn't have to download part of the single player story.
What?
Going multiplatform doesn't automatically make the quality of a game drop. There have been tons of multiplatform games that have sold well and have been very high quality games. So I don't understand what you're saying at all. I think a developer as skilled as Insomniac could have made the game function well and look pretty across both platforms. Heck, I'm expecting them to do just that with Overstrike.
I think Insomniac did just fine with Resistance sales. If they had been multiplat, I think they would have sold a bunch on the 360, since it's right up the 360's alley, so maybe that's what the author was getting at.
I'm just pumped they have gone multiplat, at least for Overstrike - I think the game has so much potential, and Insomniac really does make high quality games. I had to part ways with my PS3 a while ago. I'm still sad about it.
No, I have internet. A lot of my friends in the area don't have access to good internet - or sometimes internet at all, simply because of the rural-ness of where they live. And it's bullshit that anyone needs a pass + internet connection to play the entirety of the single player story.
If this gets supported, it will end up a trend that SPREADS. So, I won't be supporting it, like I said.
I never trust anything free. My password hasn't touched anything other than something trusted. :\ so Idk what happened in my case.
I'm not going to pay for an online pass to play the entire game that I paid $60 for OFFLINE.
Go screw yourselves, WB. I'm not buying into this shiz. I know a bunch of people who don't have access to internet. They shouldn't have to FOR A SINGLE PLAYER GAME.
Seriously. I'll either not play this at all, or I will pirate it before I support this with a single penny. Offline passes are where I draw the line.
I 100% disagree.
The Video Game industry is the only industry that throws hissy fits and is actually PUNISHING consumers for something that everyone in any selling-something-new situation deals with. If you sell a great product, you will undoubtedly sell enough new copies. And if you sell DLC down the road, if people still love your product, you'll get supported.
But, every industry has to deal with people borrowing from friends, people buying used, peo...
I got "hacked". I didn't put my password anywhere sketchy. No idea how it happened, honestly. They made two purchases, and it set off some trigger to lock my account so no more purchases could be made.
I called M$ today, they already refunded 6000 M$ points purchase, and they said at the end of their investigation they'll refund the 4000 M$ points purchase as well. And now I just hafta wait the 25 days for their investigation to conclude.
25...
You know, Arkham Asylum's replayability really disappointed me way back when, so I wasn't planning on buying Arkham City.
.. Sigh. Now I'm going to be even more poor.
Doesn't everyone and their mother have a Wii by now? I'd still just buy the GameCube compatible one, personally. It's the one console that realllly needs the backwards compatibility, imo.
Yeah.. It is old news.
But it's still a really dumb move by Nintendo imo.
What a joke.
As a general rule, yes, but there definitely are exceptions, though.
It's really dependent on the game.
Okies! I'll make sure to do that. :D Thanks.
Dark Souls got suuuper amazing scores! I'm so pumped. :D
Also, Shadows of the Damned got decent scores. I'm so on the fence with that game. I'll probably wait for it to be cheaper, I spose.
This just reaffirms that I made the right decision to cancel my account.

Uh, I can't think for myself what a game is like before I purchase it and play it myself. That's why I kind of like reading reviews. So if a game is terrible, I can pass on buying it and playing it, instead of wasting $60. Doesn't mean I trust every review, doesn't mean I only buy 90+ on metacritic games. But, thinking for myself in this scenario only gets me so far. I'm not going to stop reading reviews, but it's just important to take them wi...
What does that even mean?
Well.. I'll personally be getting Dark Souls and Silent Hill. I might pick up Saints Row, but I don't want to break my bank too badly..
And what if someone lives in an area where broadband internet isn't available? So they have to shell out for satellite (way expensive, btw), hope they have friends not near them that have internet, or just miss out on that part of the game they just paid $60+ for.
Dumb. Maybe you live someplace where internet is cheap and easy to get access to, but there are people who don't - a bunch of rural areas.
