Not entirely accurate on the title, it was simply someone who worked for Rockstar who was saying it may end up being a disaster if they were to put a massive amount of money into a western, when westerns weren't 'Popular' at the time.
This only goes to prove what most people know - it doesn't matter what the genre is, or the setting, or other surface level things like time period etc. A popular game is, always has been, and always will be a game that is WELL ...
Right, becase nobody knows men in drag quite like chukamachine.

Evidently intelligence is unfamiliar ground to you, as he clearly stated in his third point it wasn't sarcasm.

Destroying trees is going to have a way worse affect on our atmosphere than me talking on my cell phone or using my laptop to read rather than print media. The future I was projecting was one without any print whatsoever, completely digital, thus no more trees to destroy.
Does anyone care about the splitting of hairs of something that is a rumour anyway? Nothing is confirmed, so no one cares until the final specs are released... this feels like every polling article in the news who keep trying to predict the US election with fickle polling results that do nothing but split hairs and give little scientific info on anything.
lol @ the turd in the punchbowl, replying to a comment I never made ^
That's right, I clearly said digital media will completely restore all of our environmental issues. Maybe he should've lived up to his username and just remained silent lmao.
Perhaps if people just used their brains and didn't judge games based on numerical rating scores that don't always scale well to a 100 point scale the way they convert on Metacritic.
Metacritic doesn't take every site's opinion, if they did a lot of scores of games would be drastically different, some more positive or negative. What people need to realize is there will always be turds in the punchbowl who will piss all over something really great, regardless ...
Print is dying, Newsweek is dead, print is going out the window never to return. Trees will thank the internet profusely in a few decades when print is gone and we can finally not feel guilty about not planting any trees ourselves.
Yeah, there's a lot of hate but it's always going to be expected. It doesn't matter how good a game is, there will always be some troll with a low IQ hating on it.
Yeah, and Take Two would still be broke by the end of the year with their financial planning.
If you read the review it will be obvious to you whether you're going to agree with it or not. If the reviewer is nitpicking things you don't really care about, and has a clear different set of tastes than you, then disregard it.
Sometimes you get fanboyism, other times haters are just going to hate, and there's no amount of water that can put out flame baiting articles fishing for hits, in this case someone saw an opportunity for hits and they took it, while fan...
LOL I really don't understand how they justify that pricetag... all you get is AC1 and 2? Really? Brotherhood was amazing and so was Revelations, which comes with AC1. Go get AC2, Brotherhood and Revelations for 10-20 bucks each these days, then get AC3 when you're done with them, which will be in several months given how long they are, and AC3 will be cheap by then. Heck, you might even find a Black Friday or Boxing Day deal for it, at which point you'd be looking at around 60-80...
Why? Because They have nothing better to do than make the point that current consoles aren't as powerful as PC's. It's just an uppity PC owner jabbing at consoles. But really, you would need all the justification if you just spent 1000 bucks on a gaming PC.
I know right, it's a slower paced game where you have to take your time, make slower controlled bursts if you have any hope of hitting your target, none of this twitch gameplay that the reviewer is used to with CoD and Halo, where you can spray and pray and it usually works out fine.
The game is amazing, I just platinumed it the other day and it was the easiest most satisfying platinum of all 26 of my Plat trophies.
You don't like to read except for you're playing Pokemon?

Here's what everyone believes - they relate their own experiences to a rating system. Our experience with a 10 point rating scale, has, and always will be, related to our school grades. When you got a 70 in school, it wasn't exceptional (unless you were in special ed).
Therefore, people only want to invest their $60 in the 90+ experiences. $60 plus tax is an unbelievable amount of money to spend on the crap that gets shovelled out these days, which only goes to sho...
Is it any wonder why people hate it? Because it's popular, that's why. It's the hipster attitude.
Activision doesn't need anyone defending Call of Duty so long as it's making them over a billion dollars a year.
Who cares about wrestling crap anyway? They need to just hurry the "F" up and cancel the sad state that wrestling is in nowadays.
This should really just be titled "Petty whining nitpicks that no one cares about with AC3"
lol people are willing to pay 700 bucks every year for the newest smartphone, but if Sony charged that much for its PS4 every whiny gamer on the planet would cry about it, even though those smartphones cost about 100 bucks to make, whereas the PS4 will likely be sold at a loss given how expensive it is to manufacture right out of the gate.
It's like gamers are still making money off a paper route and can't afford anything more than 500 bucks... lol and they say this industry ...
Yeah, 3.5 million sold and counting and it's the end of the franchise... right... it just goes to show how people don't know jack about business.
If it sold under a million copies, it would be the end. People voted with their wallets and now RE will continue along the path that it has until it stops selling. Unfortunately Capcom doesn't have a clue why RE6 is selling so well, they'll just assume it's because of all the Michael Bay moments and cover shoo...
