He promotes charity among other things. He once showed a game that will help people with dementia, just to promote it. I highly doubt he was paid for that.
Say what you want about his videos, but calling him "scum" speaks greatly about your ignorance.
LightofDarkness made a good point, all major publications do it because they need to get paid somehow. Your response was pathetic."Oh well you're just defending a criminal" Again, ab...
He plays tons of games without being payed by the developers, that's a completely ignorant thing to say.
Yes I'm a pewdiepie fan, sue me.
Your whole point is "Oh he's stupid, and all his fans are stupid too because they watch his videos." I'm just saying that's generalizing a huge amount of people, it's like saying everyone that eats Mcdonalds is unhealthy. There's absolutely no grounds to prove it, and you'd have to be pretty stupid to think it's the truth.
Your response was "Well you're obviously one too t...
Well now that's just generalizing. He himself and his fanbase both know that it's stupid humor, but why is that a bad thing? Millions of people like his videos, it's a stupid assumption to say all of them are kids or idiots because they like some stupid humour.
So? He doesn't review games, he just plays them. He got payed to make a video for this one. He rarely ever says anything negative about a game, so it's not like they bribed him thinking they would get a highly credible reviewer to ignore a bunch of flaws then give it a 10.
It happens with most games. Sure the novelty will wear off, but it's still a cool thing for the moment. There's plenty of AAA games that don't get played much after the first three months.
Kinda like most games right?
Screw that, games can focus on whatever they want. Story based, gameplay based, spectacle based, exploration based, everything based, they've all got their audiences.The new quantic dream game looks superb, and so was Heavy Rain. Not much actual gameplay but the story and pick a path style made it legendary in my books.
Uncharted 4 single player was 30 frames, it was completely fine. Same with many other games.
I don't care if a game is 30, 60, 144, or 20000 fps. If the gameplay is good, it's good regardless. If it stutters then it's a problem, but solid 30 is fine.
I think that's what he means by God of War skin. It looks brilliant, but it certainly has a Last of Us tone to it.
@JackBNimble No it doesn't, they're still going to do it. It just means if pc versions don't sell well, they don't have to make a pc version for every single game they publish. Every game they publish on both Xbox and pc will be play anywhere, and they're obviously trying to do that with as any of their games as they can. You're desperately trying to pick on something to trash Xbox, and there's nothing in this statement that says that they're going back on anyt...
This probably means they're gonna do a lazy job with RE4 too. I'll consider getting it... but not if it looks the same as it did 10 years ago.
@Captain_TomAN94 I'm on a laptop that's only good for web browsing and work, it wouldn't stand a chance trying to run things like Gears of War 4. A lot of people seem to forget that not every pc user has the power to run proper games, and this is part of why I don't think Xbox sales will be affected much by this whole thing.
So yes: I needed a console. Could have got a pc, but I prefer consoles. Which was also the cheaper option.
"Lo...
You're right in that it doesn't affect me personally, I don't play pc games myself. Though it's still good to know that if I ever want to build a rig, I'll already have a library of games there. But sure, I don't care at the moment.
I'm simply saying that there's no solid reason to take this statement as them backing out of anything. And then you've got all the morons snowballing this into some "Microsoft can never be trusted" r...
You would have to be stupid to think it would lead to much less console sales. Most people with gaming rigs weren't going to get an Xbox anyway, and most people that don't have a rig and are looking to play current gen games aren't going to go from "lets get an xbox" to "Oh you can play them on a computer... lets build a gaming rig!"
Xbox will still sell fine, and will get a boost with the new consoles coming out. Xbox exclusives should sell mor...
Except that he didn't review it, as he doesn't review any game. That tells me you don't know a lot about this, as there's a big difference between ignoring a bunch of flaws and giving the game a 10 anyway, and making a positive gameplay video.
They paid him to make a video of him playing their game... what's wrong with that? What would be the point of him criticizing the game? He doesn't criticize games much anyway.
