i laugh at all you people that think "square will answer" or "do what the fans want". anyone who has played FFXI will tell you that square DOES NOT listen to fans, and they certainly do not answer to anyone.
FFXI players complain about the stupid claim conditions of the games notorious monsters(for a long time the best source for UBER gearz, not sure anymore). did they change it in the many years since the game has been out because that is what their pl...
this list made me laugh. people now days do not know the meaning of challenging games. hell for me would be replaying the driving parts of bayou billy over and over and over.....
piracy is going to happen regardless, however theres no excuse for M$ being so careless.
i honestly cannot see how these huge companies do not have hackers hired to try to break their copy protections or to troubleshoot vulnerabilities in their networks. instead of these companies bashing people like geohot, give the man a job. god knows you have enough other worthless people around you could get rid of. i would hope you have some good hackers employed right now as you deve...
its this sorta mocking attitude that pushes devs to one up each other leading to better game experiences for us gamers, bring it on!
how any of you can compare 2 games that are not released is beyond me. perhaps you guys have friends at epic and thq and get advanced copies? lawl. some people like "whack a mole" gunning with cover, ok. some like charging in guns blazing, ok. i like them both so nya nya nya :p
they ask these questions in an attempt to build a database of your personality profile. once they have that they can better market products to you based on your inner desires. its a basis of marketing that dates back to edward bernays and public relations. check out "century of the self" on google video if your interested in this sorta thing.
im sure they would point to the success of steam as an indicator that packaged goods are dying out. they fail to realize that alot of stuff steam offers are older games. these games are smaller in size and have less demand so getting a fast connection to the server and having lag or disconnects are uncommon.
now try to launch a high profile game like halo reach on DD, and see how your servers perform when you have a million preorder customers trying to DL the game at the ex...
dont hate on thq or say their games are not worth buying new cause every developer is doing this , not jsut them. also what you wouldnt buy new , someone else will. i wouldnt buy any game you probably like, new or used. how ya like that?
i agree with alot of the comments on "repeat franchises" namely the ones in sports settings. very little improvements over previous year, just updated roster. EA could have sold madden 08 and made every following year a DLC rooste...
“Why would [Take-Two] foist a game on their targeted audience of young people wherein they will indoctrinate a new generation into directly associating Italians and Italian-Americans with violent, murderous organized crime, to the exclusion of all of the other ‘mafias’ run by other ethnic and racial groups?.”
jesus i wish someone would associate white people with anything even if it is "with violent, murderous organized crime". ohh wait they do. there called cops...
with the hit designers of persona making this game , why would they not localize it to NA? and what the hell is this talk about it being censored in the NA release? you all do realize that ALL porn, be it real or animated, is censored in japan? they will not uncensor it for a NA release as they will likely try to squeek in with a mature rating not an X rated rating. also suggesting this will be porn in the first place is idiotic. more like anime level "adult scenes" similar to crap ...
almost all italian people i know are proud to be associated with the mafia cause its "cool", even if they are not. i dont think most italians take it as racism, just the ones looking for lawsuits. lawyers, the legal mafia.
used games and rentals have been around for a looong time and the videogame industry is still here. how does he explain that? you would think they would be happy that the rental market is down now that the rental store is almost extinct. try to find a blockbuster or hollywood video in your area thats not out of business. mebe gamefly replaced them , who knows. i dont have comparison numbers to go off of.
i wonder if he ever thought that developers blowing 5 million on a gam...
i do not see much difference in interacting with a virtual pet or virtual human. alot of people treat living pets with more respect than they do other humans. to each their own i guess and you are entitled to your opinion.
i will place money on the fact that this tech will be standard in next-next-gen consoles. when its inexpensive, more accepted by masses(is everyone willing to have computer ai's watching them?), and does not suffer from the tech problems that currentl...
Anime-Vixen : "I don't know about you guys but talking to a virtual boy isn't fun!"
interacting with a virtual pet isnt fun either but apparently there were 70 million tamagotchi sold according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... think back a few years and remember that YOU owned one too. does that tell you the level of interest in interacting with virtual "boys"? now take &qu...
sad to see no games using both kinect AND a controller yet. so much for voice command or adding gestures to existing controller based games. m$ did say that kinect was a whole new system, perhaps they should have launched it as one since it seems there is a taboo about using a controller AND kinect at the same time.
people say that we need to give them time to get the lag issues resolved. it seems to me that is where you START developing. using a wireframe stick figure , yo...
there are no specs released for this device so comparing it to anything is simply bullshit. and to everyone bashing china, look around your house. let me know the percentage of things you own not made there. thought so champ. also china IS the #1 world economy. dont think so? they could sell off their assets based on dollars and crash the usa into a 3rd world nation overnight. 國有
"He continued by saying full-game downloads are being held back by slow broadband speeds. He told attendees that the average PS3 game will take five hours to download based on average European download speeds. Meanwhile, gamers wanting to download Rockstar’s upcoming LA Noir – which reportedly uses a full Blu-Ray disc – may have to wait 14 hours."
that there about sums up why digital download will not work. lets look at halo reach. preorders top 1 million. if it t...
"Meredith argues that this game is disrespectful."
i argue that anyone that wants to limit my rights to freedom of expression is disrespectful. her son fought to defend our rights, and his mother wants to take them away. rest in peace son.
your statement "As it stands today the graphics being under par is a perfect excuse to discredit it for me" is my reasoning that you were from the current generation, the generation that places graphics above gameplay. placing graphics above gameplay is certainly not something a hardcore gamer would do. hardcore gamers play games for the gameplay not cause they are shinyshiny.
as for your point about wanting to let your body relax while your mind plays, this i ca...
yeah i dont know who these companies have hired that do any kind of analysis,i guess people like pachter, but they only seem to come up with ideas that will hurt their business not help it. losing money due to used games? charge more so only the rich can game! problem solved and we narrowed the market and excluded millions of fans we spent alll these years getting into gaming! awesome job analysts!
game developers/publishers should JOIN together in creating a used game serv...
what if he would have told detectives that he went to church afterwards to forget about it? would they be blaming religion for the rape and murder of people? wait a minute....
