I enjoy long walks on the beach and butthurt Sony fans on n4g

There already are cutbacks. Shadows either popping into existence within a few feet of an object or having terrible aliasing on them. Terrible texture resolutions, some textures having pop in quality (bad at distance, good up close), pre-baked lighting. That's off the top of my head from a few screenshots I've seen.

Maybe if you and others could stomach the game not having all these unnecessary graphical options that the consoles (they're all guilty of this) canno...

"There's a lot more to this game, and a tonne more they want to keep secret so players can discover these for themselves."

A developer doesn't just withhold major aspects of a game to allow the player to "discover" it. There should be major red flags popping up if a developer cannot even communicate some of the 'vast" things that a player can do within their game. It's disappointing that you and others cannot discern this.

So the Playstation 3 didn't launch at 600 dollars? I should know, I have the original Phat model.

"Motion sickness"

You don't get motion sickness from having a smoother experience with a better response time.

Man, all those Pearl Harbor movies and African Genocide movies I had to pay for.

How is half the crap people consume in media an experience they want to have, honestly?

Just because I'm not a chef at a kitchen doesn't mean I can't tell you your steak tastes like ass. And just because I have chosen not to program video games does not mean I can't tell you your game is also ass (whether that means unenjoyable, buggy, etc).

And stop bringing up this "billions of years" crap about No Man's Sky. You'll get no more playtime out of that game then you would out of Tetris or Donkey Kong or minecraft. All of which are...

It's not the fact that they hyped up the campaign/story. The problem is the way in which it is presented. Halo has always had a slight campy story style, with characters presented in cool action hero scenes (Let's give the covenant their bomb back). The problem with 343 is that they've inserted a bunch of melodrama into the story coupled with forcing their fan fiction tier group into the majority of gameplay. You play most of the game as Locke and his group and I'm sure most p...

Hololens is augmented reality. If you're going to off topic troll, at least troll about the correct things.

@SpaceRanger

The 2DS is a 3DS model without the 3D capabilities for young children. It's also the reason they built it like a brick.

"But 9 times out of 10, a "broken" game will be fixed"

That's making an assumption that you cannot be sure of. If I buy a car that's a flaming death machine should I say it's a great/safe car because maybe the company is going to recall it and fix it? A broken game is a part of the quality of that game. If there are game breaking bugs all over, then that is something that extremely detracts from the quality of the game.

But the...

"if it got sold to Sony or even Microsoft"

No thanks, I don't want Sega's games locked behind a single paywall in this manner.

Are there only extremes? There is nothing in between? This is what I don't understand. You go from having outrageous amounts of braindead/glitch NPC crowds to absolutely nothing. When a game is running like crap for me, I don't turn down everything to zero. I turn off unnecessary options until it's running acceptably. And if it still isn't then I start messing with the primary graphical settings.

I wouldn't want it. There's already an excellent version of Halo running on the Halo 3 engine on PC.

"Can gamers please stop supporting this"

That ship has sailed long ago. And it's only going to get worse. Also, a reminder to people who say "If you buy what you want", Microtransactions directly affect the people who don't purchase them. Didn't buy that booster pack? Have fun grinding that weapon out for 12 hours while the player who used their parent's credit card gets to whoop your ass with it immediately.

No, they shouldn't be re-scored. If a product is broken on release, it's a broken product. Games are not guaranteed to be fixed with patches. So a reviewer should tell the consumer that a title is broken or not. Maybe an addendum to inform the customer that the title is fixed, but that is not deserving of a score adjustment. The developer/publisher made the conscious decision to put out a broken product, they reap the repercussions.

My apologies that your standards are so low, mine are a little higher. I expect a company to at least meet the standards of a decade old game. But I guess that isn't possible for modern game developers. Maybe all the talent is simply gone from the industry? Whatever it is, your comment reflects upon what kind of person you are too.

Anyone who plays on a 144hz monitor realizes that you need a GPU powerful enough to push that monitor. You can run a 144hz monitor on a crap CPU no issues just using the GPU. But that CPU may bottleneck you during gameplay. And if you have a crappy GPU you'll no way in hell be pushing a 144hz monitor unless your integrated graphics can, and most cannot for gaming. Again, if the CPU has such a massive influence on FPS, I wouldn't have tripled my in game FPS wh...

That's great. They're at about 1/5 of the total amount of heroes of the previous title now.
