Lol awesome comment, because I pretty much covered all of what you said in my article which you seem to not have read.
You're just thinking about yourself, and I bet you're the same guy who thinks it's sad when game studios shut down, yet you are slowly but surely contributing to it.
You know back in the day we bought games without demos and they still sold a lot. We used things like reviews, previews, word of mouth, our friends house, renting, an...
You do more harm than good doing so. Just wait, be patient.
Say you had a game you were really excited for and were going to buy day one, but then you pirate it and play it to see meh it's not worth it. So you never buy it.
That's 1 potential sale they missed out on.
Also the fact is, and you KNOW this to be true, that 9/10 people do NOT think like you. They may SAY they will buy it after they pirate it, but only 1 of those 10 people ...
Honestly there's no reason for them to explain it. If you want the ultimate Battlefield 3 experience this year it is going to be on PC. Anyone else can just pick their console of choice and get the same experience as the other console. The reason they do that is to keep Msoft/Sony happy, and put the game on their box.
It'd be great if developers WOULD stop this "must be equal" on each platform junk when one machine is capable of more. That also would cause l...
Yup 100% bait title to get hits. Mini HHG in the works.
Just tried for a while getting on, but no luck. My friend had no issues. I probably spent a good 30 minutes trying what I could, but no luck.
Spent some time with botzone after that. I'm not too worried about the full game though, but it is a shame if you were to have just DLeded during a time it was down like it was today.
Keep trying peeps! It's worth it once you get in. :)
Honestly, I don't care what place they are in, because they are in first place with me as someone who likes to play games. Their line up year in year out is incredible, and this year is insane on the Sony exclusives.
As long as Sony keeps profiting to give gamers more games they can't get anywhere else, then everyone is winning. Yeah it's a shame they aren't destroying the competition, but it just fuels them to keep adding more/get better, while whoever is #1...
Not sure why you got 3 disagrees, but I'll float you an agree.
I still haven't gotten PS+, but I know that if they ever introduce the long asked for cross game chat that I'd gladly pay for it. It's a shame that Sony didn't put this at the forefront of things to add over these years.
I was hearing this complaint for the last few days, but I have been busy to jump into the beta again. The 6ish hours I spent I was having no problems on the first day and the day after that.
I imagine it's just servers getting flooded. I remember reading Guerrilla saying they were aware of the issue and trying to fix it for people playing the beta, and said rest assured it isn't something that will occur in the full game.
I feel dumb I couldn't find that feature. I'll have to update the review so as to not cause misconception about that. Thank you for pointing that out.
Homefront to be honest I don't have much excitement for or think it will be a big success. I could be totally wrong, and hopefully I am as more good games to play are always a plus.
It's just that their previous game of Frontlines was 100% not my cup of tea, and at this point I believe that games community is microscopic in size.
Everything I've seen for Homefront looks okay, but nothing that screams MUST BUY... at least not for $60.00 and even mo...
Great list. I'm still worried about what kind of game BF3 will be now that Dice will have a team full of Bad Company 2 developers helping influence and make it. The Bad Company games are good, but never held my interest like BF2 did in the day.
I hope the wait for BF3 will be worth it, but I'm also skeptical about the first thing they want to tell the media is "we are going to kick CoD's ass" in not so many words. They've been singing that song it se...
:) These are just 20 games I def. am keeping my eye on for my tastes. What are some games I missed you think should be getting more hype and coverage?
I just wanted to give a heads up to you on the MvC3 worry about its net code. From what I've been reading over on NeoGaf and Shoryuken.com the people who found the game early from stores say the online net code is really solid, but the actual online component is lacking in a lot of features from SSF4 like spectator mode and replays.
I also agree that matchmaking in fighters has really been a total crap shoot. A lot of developers of fighters seem to think the online compon...
We are about to hit 2011, and game developers who are lazy/mediocre talent that get over hyped are getting away with millions of sales because consumers are 100% idiots.
Halo: Reach, Gears 2, and Call of Duty can't afford dedicated servers on consoles? We all know that's bull crap. I'm pretty sure Reach is using the same crap netcode since the Xbox 1 days, and match making in that game is slower than a dead snail. Game runs 30FPS in Reach as well, and compared to ...
This guy is as loony as Mel Gibson. Why not just blame Jews and dust along with bannanas while you are at it.
I blame Tom Tompson from Europe for the hair on my butt.
If anything it's going to get better and bigger. With console life spans getting so long and the tech being less impressive(Sony first party exclusives aside), the PC is now a good home for developers to keep going forward tech wise.
Not only that but Steam just gets better and better. The deals they have are incredible, and with games like Starcraft 2 and World of Warcraft it continues to draw players in.
I personally got a new gaming PC a few months ago...
They just aren't making great games, and the ones that could be get pushed out half assed and too early.
Nier could've been so much more, and even in its shipped state I had a great time with it.
FF13 wasn't a complete disaster like some seem to think it is, but they approached the game in a lot of wrong ways.
Their biggest disaster is Final Fantasy XIV. I'm surprised no one has brought up the journalism biasness around that g...
That release date for Socom 4 seems...dumb since Killzone 3 would be 20 days later.
Come on Sony spread these games out, because I for one would only drop the money on Killzone for that month to occupy my shooting multiplayer time, but would def. get Socom 2 months or more later down the line.
Uuuh being Canadian is NOT a race there einstein.
That last paragraph is full of such stupid I can't believe you actually typed that and think it's a good point.
No they aren't technically stealing. They aren't stealing in any damn sense. Game rental places A) Pay game companies to have their games in stores. B) Have to BUY THE GAME. C) Basically get free promo in their stores for their games.
They do see money, because videogame rental places buy games in BULK to have enough in every store. ...
