Not sure if serious...
Ouch, that's a tough one. I'd rather take my chances with the COD community, to be honest.
Very much true, now that I think about it. BF3's buggy launch drove me away from the game for a couple of months and made MW3 my go-to shooter for a while. When I returned to it in 2012 I had so much fun again and I played it almost non-stop.
It will still sell like hot cakes, no doubt about that, but in my circle of Steam friends, containing plenty of dedicated COD players, there is only a handful looking forward to Ghosts.
I know it might not look like it, but COD is actually starting to lose a major part of its audience. Black Ops II already sold millions less than Modern Warfare 3 and I'm expecting that Ghosts won't do any better.
Also, don't forget that Battlefield 4 is coming out...
For five seconds there I actually thought this article would provide ten proper reasons as to why Ghosts might stand a chance later this year. Fortunately, I was wrong.
I believe it was already stated that this was an error on their end. The game will only release in Asian territory and MIGHT come to the West, if they have the time and resources.
You're expecting some random guy behind a desk in the middle of nowhere to solve all of your problems by simply pressing a button. That's what I'm getting from your article.
If there's one thing I've learned over the years it's that customer support, of any company, is simply a messenger and not a tool. These people don't have the power to do what most people are expecting them to do.
I will agree that there's plenty of custome...
Can't wait to get my hands on this game. =D
If you're able to play it casually and still do very well.
Looks like the 3DS has made a full recovery. Can't wait to get my hands on some of the major titles later this year. =D
It's not as if Nintendo has been working hard to bring us tons of games from various franchises later this year and next year. Yup, they're pure evil and way worse than MS.
Excuse me while I mop up the sarcasm I'm almost drowning in.
Yes, let's get rid of one of the most compassionate CEO's in the industry and replace him with a blood sucking money whore. Seems like a plan.
Let me guess, it has framerate issues, graphical glitches and a broken mouse/keyboard support, just like Conviction?
I'm not trying to be negative, but the last Splinter Cell port on the PC left a sour taste.
That's because the "hardcore" install base is much lower on Nintendo platforms. It always has been. In comparison these game would sell just as well.
What Ubisoft is perhaps forgetting here is that ZombiU wasn't exactly the amazing title it was shaped up to be. But no, instead they blame it on the audience.
And here goes another person claiming to know what I want. Really now? I don't want only integration with my Wii U? Let me just return my copy of Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate and stop playing online then to meet this demographic of yours.
Hold my beer.
What's the big deal about this? Assassin's Creed, Splinter Cell and franchises from various other major publishers have made their way to mobile platforms. Yes, most of these mobile games are mediocre, but how does that affect the franchise as a whole?
Everyone ranted that the 3DS was doomed and look at it now. The Wii U still has a fair chance, simply because there are lots of games coming up for it, including various unannounced ones.
Let's not forget that a console in trouble is one of the "best" consoles to own. You might say I'm crazy, but think about it. A company will do anything to salvage their product - the 3DS' pricecut and ambassador program are proof of this.
I'm not surprised. Remember, Iwata also cut his salary in half to compensate for the poor launch of the 3DS and cover the expenses.
I'd rather have the team spending all their time and effort on balancing and perfecting the game, instead of adding content that immediately becomes useless after one playthrough. Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed Brawl's story, including its spectacular cutscenes, but I don't mind such a sacrifice.
Besides, they might be cooking up something else.
