Its going to take one major flop and the entire system will take a MAJOR hit... think of $5 mil being raised and then no end product. At all. Thats something "Investors" are willing to risk. Regular gamers who bitch about anything and everything under the sun will have simultaneous heart attacks.
If you are a backer, stop consuming a lot of sodium now.
I'm just say.
Full disclosure, I've backed both Wasteland 2 &...
The debate of Console vs PC needs to end.
Building and maintaining a gaming PC is a hobby in itself.
Its like scrapbooking for geeks & nerds, always buying just one more piece of gear, always tweaking the final product so its "just right."
Its like gearheads working on cars to push the max horsepower possible and get the max RPM.
Those are not slams. Those are legitimate ways people spend LOTS of time and money on, and they get a lot o...
Wait... I thought the main concern/gripe with CoD was that it wasn't varied enough with each iteration? And you're complaining about it now?
I shouldn't be too critical, this could end up being a load of crap, but I agree with other posters, if anything PLEASE have let the knife not be a 1-hit-kill
I was in the same camp, and am also a recovering WoW addict. I tried the Beta and felt every single one of my WoW buttons being pushed. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it was The same engine, just tweaked. Achievements for doing the mundane to the insane, skill tree, crafting tree is similar, big dungeon boss battles (yes, not the same, but "Whelps!" ie adds are pretty much coined by Bliz)
I was drooling at the end, ready to throw my money at Blizzard.
And in the US Gamestop is buying it back for $28 until Monday! Good thing I just beat it.
I'm sorry. Really I am...
But I am laughing my ass off.
The outcry for a PC version was so great that From & Bamco listened... and the release is imminent. No "official word" on console DLC, but they are doing the same thing in reverse with the Witcher 2 next week, so I'm hopeful.
But its not good enough. Oh no. Not by a long shot.
Why?
GFWL.
Now from what I've read people won't be buying...
What if I didn't pre-order the and want to get into the game, say, tomorrow? Then its $15. Not everyone is going to pre-order the game.
Yeah... please correct me if I'm wrong but you're paing $15 for old maps.
Good. Way to appease everyone! I wonder if I'll have to start a new character for the new content or if it will work with NG+... Either way, take my money!
Another hopeful side effect for a PC version... could someone release a full 3d continuous map of the entire world!??!?! Please?!?!! I've explored it all, I just want to see how it all melds together!
It really started to go downhill with Dragon Age 2. The writing there was horriffic. And when I say writing, I mean the overall story development. Some of the dialogue is genius.
"Helping people and killing people are what I'm best at!"
Welcome to N4G, where pointing out facts gets you multiple Disagrees!
At first I was like "Yeah!" after seeing the article title. Then I read it and was like "Booo!"
No info. Nothing confirmed or denied. Just that they like the dark fantasy setting and want to continue with it.
The day they OFFICIALLY announce a SUCCESSOR (NOT SEQUEL!) will be a grand day indeed.
They could also help by just announcing wha...
Released this summer?!??! Sorry, can't wait that long! I need to beat the game and trade it in for Witcher 2 Extended Edition and (hopefully!) any DLC that From Software has for Dark Souls. I'll just watch it on Youtube.
Its a shame, I'm really liking the game so far (1/2 way done maybe?).
Worst customer support experince I've EVER encountered was courtesy of EA. They have my vote.
F-Zero
Forget the Simulation racing sim market. Go with what you have dominated with in the past.
I don't care about the results either, EA is #1 in my book right now.
Had quite possibly the WORST customer support experience that was drug out for 3 months late last year. I won't by a new EA game ever again because of it.
The game was a complete package. It was amazing.
Adding anything additional now wouldn't be a departure from their statement at release, but... get this... A RESPONSE TO FAN FEEDBACK
*glares at ME3*
I am very happy with my decision to pay full price for Dark Souls. It doesn't NEED an expansion to wrap things up. However, any additional content that From Software comes up with I will support fully, especially with the future of the Souls ...
I apologize, I really have nothing against the PC gamers hoping this gets ported to their platform of choice, however I really hope this announcement is for an expansion or DLC.
I would be VERY happy if said DLC/Expansion is announced WITH a PC version. That way we console gamers get additional content, and PC gamers get the whole experience.
But promise me one thing...
No nude hollow mods...
Please...
Sounds like a pile of mass sh** to me...
4chan....
Fact: 4chan is quite possibly the most reliable place for accurate information on the entire interwebs....
If you liek mudkips...

Are we sure the OP didn't end with a trip to Bel Aire?
Where have you been? He has always had strong ties with Activision & the Call of Duty brand.
