There has to be a way to do both. Unfortunately, in today's market, because of the necessity for a franchise of this magnitude to make money, Capcom chooses to show how great it looks and how epic it will be. Now, as I mentioned, there must b a way to do both. Resident evil 4 was good and also looked great etc. Maybe, there is horror and difficulty, and sparse ammo along with blockbuster moments. It's hard to blame capcom because gamers have proven that most of the hardcore base will ...

Screw all these damn mods!!! JK...I am just insanely jealous. I don't know alot about Modding. Yeah, I know some coding but I have never had a great gaming rig and never got into. But, it seems that most skyrims mods are aesthetic or some minor variations in gameplay. Is it possible to build mods like DayZ or dota? It would b cool to c something in the world of skyrim.

I am sure now that the bad ending was purposeful so that they could release 3 great dlc packages for free. For real though, this is a great add on and a reason to go back and play one of the pleasant surprises this year. There is still sp dlc coming but I sure hope we are not done with shepherd.

Lost planet 2 has a number 1 spot trophy but u might as well add the platinum as it will take months to get all the medals. Killzone 2 on elite is not easy either but doable if u have patience and skill. Fable 3 has an achievement that forces u to collect certain items. Problem is that u can only get a few each playthrough and it's random so u could play 25 x and not get them so u have to rely on others gifting. Sounds easy? U have to have them all at the same time. I finally found someon...

I agree. It's probably more about consoles this time. And please, please bring back the open campaign. It was so brilliant. And I don't fault them for the looks on console. It still looks great and obviously was never going to look like a high end pc. But by showing off the best, it gathered tons of support and allowed them to keep pushing their engine. And it really does look like that for many people. It would be stupid to nerf the pc version of Battlefield 3 just to make us console...

It will b used also. But they know that they have to do whatever to get Cod on Nintendo. It will only help them to have a good controller ALSO.

Sounds like something Microsoft would do. Please tell me they didn't get the rights. Microsoft had their summer arcade event and was dominating online. It would have come out later anyway on psn so I guess it was worth a shot at the time.

We all know what gets talked about. And they know that people will go see how good it really looks. But it gets attention and gets us blogging about it.

Exactly. Well put. There's room for two. Obviously BO2 will outsell MoH and it won't b as close as B3 vs. MW. unless MoH is actually a great game. If it's really good, eventually it will sell very well. It won't top BO2 but it will keep EA on Activations heels especially if it close to B3's quality and is a fresh take on sp and mp. It's sp can't b worse than b3. Already I hope not. I guess it wasn't terrible but I so wanted a great semi open sp game of the bad ...

From a consumers perspective, it isn't. I use metacritic to get a list and then go and read as much as possible. Then I ask people too. And I watch videos. As far as the industry goes, it's up to them whether they want to offer bonuses or close studios based on the scores. But they shouldn't include user reviews when making those decisions.

I agree completely and it's very sad. Not even the milking so much but the misguided direction. How hard can it be to stay on course and build a next Gen FF. I give Capcom credit for DD and the pawn system. DD is a he'll of alot better at it's core.

That being said, FF13 was great after the main story ended chasing the platinum. It opened up and the combat and strategy shined through. Why not create a semi open world with an over map and a traveling system. Maybe ...

Soon we can add fortnight to this list. The first UE4 game for pc. It looks damn good.

All I can say is wow. Do u have to first mine all these materials first? I was surprised that they didn't take longer.

I agree actually. I'm not so sure they wouldn't just launch on all platforms and run it like a separate business. Although, it could b a huge selling point. Problem is that all these franchises are fragile right now and it could backfire. I don't think they would make it a Microsoft only studio.

Either he is right and the new epic engine as well as luminous won't be used on new consoles, or he is wrong and his console is in trouble. Oh and he is wrong. Otherwise no one is gonna buy them. PC's will surge and developers will flock to PC. Epic and others have made it clear what they need.

No. I just think we have to pick and choose r battles. It only makes me feel gratified if I boycott something that only a few others r boycotting. If it were a huge movement and had an effect... then ya..if it's a good reason. Online codes are interesting because they help fight against used game sales and piracy. Even if u boycott, chances r it's less than what would have been lost from stealing. Believe me, companies that do shocking things that piss us off know that they will lose ...

It will. They already have or are close to deals with cable providers. U can already get HBO go, ESPN. It will be an extension of windows 8 on your TVs. And if the specs are right, it is being built to be able to handle multiple entertainment at the same time. And it will have a dvr. I expect a $99 model too but I also expect another model because many gamers do not have control over their cable subscription. But, I do wonder how Microsoft is able to broker deals with cable companies that al...

I am always worried about games with semi open world's and streamlined RPG elements. IF they give the appearance of an RPG but it's shallow and added simply to give the illusion of choice and customization, I find myself unsatisfied. Rage is a great example. It had all the makings of a phenomena game, but felt very limited because of this very reason. It's the RPG enthusiast in me. If u give me a little, I want more. But it can b done right and here's to hoping tomb raider is ...

No. It's how they keep up with cod and keep momentum going. I still trust Dice, even though EA calls the shots. What would b very smart in this economy in which many still play B3 is to make a move into the future and give ppl a reason to buy it by joining one to the other in some way, by allowing ppl to keep what they have earned or reward them for what they have accomplished. If it's in this Gen, it could b a great way to sell alot of copies. Eventually, it will money in this direct...

I don't get it. At all. So it's a little more powerful than ps3 and 360...maybe. So, the few games releasing in the next 12 months may b slightly better on wiiU. It's not gonna make ppl buy it. If I wanted better graphics, I would get a pc. And what does Nintendo do when the ps4 & 720 launch? They had Microsoft's opportunity to get a jump on the competition. Imagine if they had released a true next Gen console with all the online amenities and then partnered with Google or...
