Are you scared of seeing an opinion you don't want to be seen? You scared you'll see so many people who will agree with those opinions?
Of course they are going to deny that part of it because they know you'll wait for the game to come out for your system of choice if they say that. The DLC they can get away with that a bit more because it doesn't really sell units. An actual game that's exclusive will. So that incites you to buy the system for that game.
But no one should really be celebrating this, and I bet the outcry might make SE think twice before keeping it exclusive (remember FF13 and how ...
1. I said subscription model as an alternative (which you've conveniently ignored).
2. I called you touchy because you went after my first comment as if it was a personal attack on you (it wasn't). It was over the top, yes, but so was your first comment to me.
3. Anytime someone has a disagreement with you, you get like this. You put me on your ignore list after you PMed me with nastiness about my opinions. It's not just me. Just because you like ...
You're going on the notion that I'm for one company over another, and are still under this impression that because I called out Sony over that whole anti-homebrew & hacking fiasco, that I'm an anti-Sony guy. It's as if no one is ever allowed to criticize them in your mind. And when they do, you attack them with worthless things such as their ignore/follow ratio (which I bet you, outside of one - you - the rest are trolls who will just blindly ignore anyone who doesn't ...
First off, aren't we touchy today?
Now, when reviewers talk about time it might take to complete the game, they are not factoring in things like real life implications, the skill of the player, whether or not a player chooses to follow the same path of progression, etc. What other priorities do you have in daily life? What games are you playing (fighting games can be "completed" in one sitting, but with one character out of a full roster)? How skilled do you con...
We already knew this, morgan. That's part of the problem here: they're giving the devs and publishers an inch, and they are taking a mile, just as they made that mistake of not making trophies mandatory when they first implemented that system.
The thing is that if EA Access becomes a success for them, and there's no reason to think it won't, then PS Now will be forced to rethink their strategy. Sony has already said they were getting requests for a subscriptio...
So...he's not allowed to comment on articles saying why he's not a console gamer right now? Sad thing is that your comment got three agrees and his got 4 disagrees. Shows you just how out of touch some people are on this site.
Big difference right now, though, in that EA is allowing you to pay 30/year for EVERYTHING in that library that they decide to add (might just be EA published games to start out with, but they could strike deals with other publishers down the line). Right now, with PS Now, you have to pay a separate fee for each game and keep all of those up.
If PS Now offered a subscription model where one price gave you unlimited access to all titles (which they've said was requested by...
But isn't that what the PS Plus free game thing does now? Once your sub ends, so does your access to the games unless you renew. How is that any different?
So, the main problem with this guy's view is that he's not looking at the abilities of the wrestlers (besides the Undertaker, and he's basing THAT off of a match in which it was rumored that he worked through a concussion and Lesner was protecting him once he realized the situation), and simply looking at if they were on WWE TV at any point and if they are over in any way right now. By that logic, Bad News Barrett would be getting some bad news of his own.
Thing i...
Which is the biggest problem with giving publishers that much of a say, because they will always, ALWAYS, take a mile if you give them an inch. You HAVE to keep them in line. No if, and, or buts about it!
That was one source. You expect me to really think that she did her research if she found ONE source for this information. When I do videos in which I cite sources, I cite all of them, or as many as I can, and I say when I cannot and the reasons why I cannot. That is just being about to back up what you say with hard evidence.
And you said it yourself: "And part of her point is that trolls take a *very* different approach toward women than men." Trolls take a very d...
Probably should've tried to do more instead of pretending that it could never happen to them, then suddenly say "oh, poor us". They should've been more upfront with consumers about what was exactly going on (I can understand not giving TOO much info away, but it was trying to infiltrate the CIA the way they were sparse in giving out any info as to WTF was going on).
I like Sony as much as the next guy, but that doesn't mean I'll let them off the hook...
@sorceror171: 1. What's with the hostility?
2. "Trolls and pitiful excuses for human beings," for one. But second, "some men who still live in the 1960s". More like that, since the majority of us and those I've read on some other, more moderated sites (I consider N4G to be among those more modded sites, mind you) seem to have the right idea that a civil minded, more intelligent discussion must be had, and many of them are males.
S...
@sorceror171: So the words "many men" and her not even bringing up that people like TotalBiscuit and Angry Joe have expressed concern for this topic, too, doesn't strike you that perhaps she's going into this discussion with stereotypical opinions about men in the games industry? Citing people like Anita Sarkeesian and Leigh Alexander actually give you a good leg to stand on in this discussion?
Sounds more like you're trying to protect someone who you kn...
@rlacorne: The problem is that people are piggybacking this issue that needs serious attention, stroking the interests by pretending to be on their side for the matter of getting the hit piece clicks to get the attention, then suddenly say that anyone who doesn't agree with their wording on it is automatically sexist or misogynistic.
Thing is, this is a SERIOUS issue that needs a SERIOUS debate without the buzz words, hysteria, or hyperbole. My guess is that many people d...
Pre-orders are a problem when you seem to forgive things that you shouldn't forgive. For example, shoddy ports of games, DLC that was already on the disc, etc. If you've been burned before, why would you reward them? It's somewhat of an epidemic in the gaming community that we keep rewarding bad behavior (celebrating exclusive DLC content for a multiplatform title shouldn't be happening, but we keep seeing the "first on X console" thing be cheered every single time)....
Reason why media is hyping the 60fps thing is because many games run at 30fps because they have a lot of issues trying to maintain that sort of fps. For PC gamers, it's not as big of a deal because of hardware differences, but for consoles, it's not as easy to get that consistently.
@Prime157: I agree. It seems like this was made in a vacuum. Was there any news about the ESRB even considering doing this anywhere that we missed?
Until someone gets the message that this kind of stuff shouldn't really be happening in the games industry.
