I could understand Capcom's stance with their delayed pc gaming ports. But pc gamers don't see Bioshock as "just another console port." It's actually a good game in many pc gamer's eyes. I bought the first Bioshock but if this gets delayed. I'm bustin out the eye patch.
you know a game fails when theres a catch phrase invented (Killzowned) to throw in the faces of opposite console's camp. Then catch phrase suddenly disappears after sales numbers are released...
Kz2 will probably return Sony and GG's investment in time.
But @ n4g.....kz2 flopped. I kept trying to tell most of you idiots not to put this game on a pedestal. Not only did the Sony fans @ n4g put kz2 on a pedestal. They all donned their hooded robes and chanted together t...
they REALLY must have been full of themselves to think the playstation name alone would sell their games. Not surprised really considering their "next-gen doesn't start till we say so" comment.
Great commercial btw. quite a shame they let them go.
This guy was bummed by lack of singleplayer campaign. I don't blame him really. But Multiplayer oriented games with lack of singleplayer will probably become more common in pc gaming in the coming years. Once this is embraced with open arms. Reviewers will probably change their policy.
As far as unfinished goes. I bought it on day one and it's never given me any problems.
most people think piracy is killing pc gaming. What no one seems to realize is that if you offer a good multiplayer game. Games will sell. See WoW, CS, TF2, L4D, Battlefield
sure you can argue that one can use private servers or hamachi. But have you ever used it? The way Hamachi is setup is so inconvenient you will NOT systematically find good ping servers whenever u want. Maybe like twice a day IF you're lucky. A keygen will only let you install and play singleplayer. Multiplay...
agreed. I've never played Halo for the pc even though I could pirate it. KZ2 isn't big enough to take away the online fps crowns from cs, cod, and battlefield.
If it was ported to the pc. I could see it being a game I'd play for a week or two at most. Pretty much meaning, I wouldn't buy it.
When I was younger seeing better graphics was an exciting time (I remember when DK Country was first released) I had a cheesy grin on my face the entire way home from blockbuster reading the manual.
But since then I've learned graphics really don't mean jack squat. If that were true then Crysis would be among the king of shooters for the pc. After seeing the screens for that game I was instantly hooked. It was a LONG year before I was able to play it. It was then that I realized...
whatever happened to that catch phrase here at n4g that was spreading like wildfire before killzone was released.
"Killzowned" I think it was
ya whatever happened to that?
I said it before and reading morganfell's comments here I'll say it again.
You seemed to be one of the few posters here at n4g that was not blinded by the goggles. As of late you've not only been blinded by them but have now become somewhat of a propaganda machine.
sounds interesting ill probably end up buyin it if its got a decent online mode.
your still in the "Denial" phase.
i showed this to one of my team mates who's black.
he lol'd.
ya the amount of money they made off Sins by not having to advertise much, not having to pay for drm management, not having to pay for publishing, and by selling a majority of their purchases digitally. Pretty much comes up to an INSANE amount of profit for Stardock. I would guess comparable to the big high budget AAA titles.
Demi-god is made by stardock. If your one of those fanboys that go on about sales, you'd know that Stardock made Sins Of A Solar Empire, published it through their own digital distribution platform. Sold 500k copies in a few months. ALL of this.....with no DRM whatsoever.
Pretty much proof that piracy is not killing pc gaming.
I just bought this game a few minutes ago after reading this actually.
"The cover system was NOT invented by Gears of War or Epic or Microsoft so get off your High Horse, fanboys, Killswitch came first"
If im not mistaken he's saying killswitch invented the cover system. I wasn't telling him which one is like so and so's. All I'm saying is the cover system came before Killswitch.
Also one that picked it up for the pc earlier this year just to try co-op with a friend.
It really was an awesome experience for the both of us. We are both PC only FPS gamers but we had a blast with this one. We are both now eagerly hoping for a gow 2 port to the pc.
I'm impressed JOY. Well done.
@ cookie
From what I remember the cover system goes far beyond killswitch with Winback for the 64. There might have even been a game or two before that.
I think even "General Chaos" for the genesis had a cover system.

I personally have never visited his site. But the comments on his articles make for a decent time killer when I'm bored.
"think the problem stemmed from his controversial headlines from his show. But you know what? He actually talks about his headline and explains his opinion on them everytime. In other words he backs up what he says by explaining why in OPINION."
So you'd agree that an OPINION piece DOESN'T belong on a site where NEWS is shared.
Sure does sound like that's what your saying.
bleh wtf...
most ppl nowadays can max out the damn game. what's with the fog.
Karkand truly would have been the dust 2 of the battlefield franchise if the damn fog didn't make it look so ugly
