I respectfully disagree. The SNES was a big step up from the NES and has some legendary games, but the PS1 is the undisputed champion here. It was the birthplace of a myriad of legendary franchises, it marked the beginning of 3D graphics as one of the standards of game development and it's the console in which games did a major step up in storytelling potential. Plus, the Dualshock 1 was the controller which became the standard template for controller design to this day, having the twin s...
"the Tokyo-based fitness company"
This is me dry-heaving.
They have Ghosts N' Goblins and Maximo, but no Gargoyle's Quest/Demon's Crest? I am disappoint. Imagine a Metroidvania-style 2.5D Demon's Crest. Tha would be the best thing ever for a while.
@Featuring_Dante No, Christie and Eddie fight Capoeira exclusively. Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu is grappling, not striking.
We already had Blanka as a Brazilian character with more of a pure striking moveset and Elena for a Capoeira fighter. Laura is a grappler cause she does Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and it was ABOUT F***ING TIME we had a fighting game character who uses the style. I love how tricky many of her electric moves are (that one where she did a slow electric wave in front of Ken and she grappled him while he was defending was DOPE), and I love her look.
As a guy who's practiced Judo in mixed company, I can tell you with full confidence that a girl with large breasts has a HUGE advantage when performing armbars. This is not a joke. When they start cranking your arm and they pin the arm between the breasts, it has nowhere to go. With guy or a flat-chested girl, you can move the arm somewhat, but a large breasted girl will pin that arm until you tap or until it breaks.

-Cloud computing: We have not yet seen a single game whose game experience was significantly enhanced by cloud computing. So far, it's just a buzz word.
-Havok: The purchase was just last week. It's too early to tell if it was a wise choice or not.
-Mojang: Microsoft's done nothing with it since the purchase.
-DX12: Again, too early to tell if the upgrade will significantly improve the games.
-Bigger exclusives: I'm not eve...
@Orionsangel "Being a slave to corporations"?Seriously, dude, are you in that college phase when everyone's an anarchist or something? The PS3 debuted at $700, and that was back in 2006, so adjusted for inflation it's about $830 in today's money. A console significantly more powerful for half that price is beyond reasonable, especially since this one debuted with a much more numerous and higher-quality library. If anything, gaming today, with retailers constantly offerin...
Seriously, dude? Do you not remember how the previous generation consoles debuted at $700 dollars with measly 20-40GB hard drives? $400 is a reasonable price for both the PS4 and XB1, and a price drop for either console is aces. Post price drop, you could buy two PS4s for the price of one OG PS3.
I swear, some people are just too entitled.
The PS4 is nearing the 2-year mark, it's a perfect time for a price drop. Especially with how insane this 4th quarter's gonna be: Fallout 4, Uncharted Collection, Wasteland 2 DC, Tales of Zestiria, Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Divinity: Original Sin, Battlefront, Black Ops 3, Bloodborne's DLC, Just Cause 3, Rainbow Six... Such a great time to be a gamer :)
I completely agree on this problem going away on its own with time. Titillating girls with no game skills on a game streaming site will be abandoned by gamers looking for actual game content for not offering any and by pervs for not putting out enough. You can write "girl gamer" in the XVideos search engine and get a bazillion hits of actual bardcore porn with girls playing the girl gamer stereotype.
The main problem with the whole girl gamer phenomenon is the fact that the term itself exists. A gamer is a gamer, his/her gender should have no place in either enjoying gaming or enjoying a gamer's content. There's bad on both sides, of course. Like it's been mentioned by you guys here, the t&a girl game crowd makes the genuine female gamers look bad and the creep gamers make the guy gamers look bad. Just bad juju all around.
But with the girl gamers in parti...
One of these days, Ono is going to eat his own head in a stress-induced breakdown. The guy is seriously overworked and underappreciated by Capcom, which is a shame considering how genuinely enthusiastic he is about his job, his game and the fans. I felt so bad for him when the news of his hospitalization because of exhaustion dropped a little while back. His treatment by Capcom is even more reprehensible considering that he's the only big name they have left, since Inafune, Inaba, Mikami ...
Sooo... more Fallout is BAD Fallout? That's sure news to me. Here I thought that Bethesda is the one game company whose DLC equals or surpasses the main game and is always worth it. Shows how much I know. /sarcasm
@Concertoine I agree on the graphics. I'm a HARDCORE KOF fan, so I've been waiting for this announcement for years already, but the characters look really plastic and expressionless, like early PS2 CG cinemas. Compared to the much more expressive characters in Street Fighter and even Tekken, it looks underwhelming.
Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm buying the $#!+ out of this game, it's f*(king King of Fighters, after all. But let's not mince words here, SN...
Which terrible decisions has Sony made that were not in gamers' best interest?
Not trolling, I genuinely wanna know.
Whoops, double post
You're delusional if you think the Apple TV will do anything more than a microscopic ripple against the console market. It will never get the support of 3rd party developers necessary to compete, nor will the actual box have the technical specs to match consoles. PC is the only market that goes head-to-head with consoles, and consoles will still survive on factors like convenience, price range and exclusives. And what, you think the Apple TV will survive as a glorified TV app hub? The Ouy...
SO PSYCHED.
Deficient marketing + insanely crowded release window + system exclusivity = bad sales. Simple math that supposed professional business executives just continue to fail to grasp.
The sad part is that the developers work hard to make a quality game (and if the previous entry in the series is any indication, this game must be awesome), only to see their hard work go to waste by idiot executives squandering the game's potential of doing good sales, only to then get saddled w...
