I agree, but it's easy to say when we're heard Sutherland say, what, twenty lines?
There's a reason this change has happened, and I'm happy to give Konami, Kojima and co the benefit of the doubt until The Phantom Pain. If it still feels unusual after that, I'll be less open minded.
Because it's based, I believe, on an online poll, and gamers flooded the vote.
To be fair, what we're seeing at the minute is hardcore gamers tired of last-gen and desperate to move on. This is the result of an 8 year console cycle (which is why a decent proportion of Vita owners also have a PS4).
I don't disagree with you, but it's a little early to make a decision on how they're actually doing.
"Hey, here's a good idea, how about have it so the sphere grid tutorial can be repeated?! And we'll have the guy who doesn't speak English ask if you want to re-view.
GENIUS!"
More likely that's why Treyarch have been given an extra year for their next game.

You're making a few big presumptions, stuff that can't really be backed up until Bethesda actually tried to pull it off, or at least until we see how well their brand of open world works with an upgrade in the lowest common denominator hardware.
As for your comments on people that want multiplayer, that's not really for you to decide. If the feature was there, people would make use of it. Whether you want it or not, that doesn't detra...

Subscription-based MMOs are rare now, because there's so many fantastic games that are free-to-play. It's just these big publishers, they think the IP alone deserves the monthly fee.
There's not been a single game released in the last few years that's not proven that completely wrong.
EDIT: And that's why The Elder Scrolls Online will probably end up free-to-play by next Christmas.
I think the fact that people want it is reason enough. I can see why; the idea of exploring a massive open world on that scale with a friend is exciting, especially for those of us that play a lot of multiplayer.
So long as it isn't forced and doesn't take anything away from the base game, I say go for it. Rather that than shoehorn that experience into a below average, subscription-based MMO.
If Crash is always dead to you until Sony owns the rights, and they never owned the rights and never made a game in the franchise, exactly what IS your point?
That you really, really want a business transaction to take place?
No, you're right. I'm WAY out there.
Sony NEVER owned the rights.
There's one major flaw in saying that games should be reviewed on how fun they are.
All games are fun. They're a form of entertainment.
You might not enjoy them - that comes down to your enjoyment of specific features - but then that doesn't mean that others aren't going to have fun with them.
So here's the question: if your enjoyment is based upon the inclusion and success of certain features, why is it more useful to rea...
If that was the case: apologies Mr-Dude.

Again, I'm not really sure what you're trying to prove (or why you're trying so hard to prove it). Someone is unlucky. It doesn't prove that it's the norm.
Wait for the official numbers.
You know, not everything has to be a comparison. It's pathetic whenever anyone does something like this, but the Xbox One came out today and so this is far more topical.
"People who attack one another for no reason suck" isn't an interesting headline.

Depends what you mean by feedback. What feedback do you feel you're getting from the support forums?
Unless you're having one of those problems listed, the only feedback you're getting is that some people are having problems. Nothing else.
If you're looking at the support forum for anything, you're going to find people who need support.
Don't presume anything about failure rates at any point, for either console, until we find out official numbers.
A games "journalist" (or games journalist, as we call them) has the job of reviewing a game. They might give a 3 to a game that's quite good fun, and they might give an 8 to a game that isn't very fun.
Depending on the site you're reading, score is always different, and you should always check how a site scores their games before you react to the number at the bottom.
But here's the deal: if you read a review, you should know what is...
There was an implication that whenever they sense something odd with the network, they randomly force a set number of users to change their passwords.
I was told by Sony support it was in preparation of the PlayStation 4 launch.
May be a bit of A, a bit of B.
"Not really...if you watch all the teasers/trailers/gameplay videos with him voice acting you can judge him already."
You can totally judge him. You can judge anyone for anything at any point in your contact with them. It doesn't mean it's fair or clever though.
Until you've finished The Phantom Pain, really the best thing to do is be cautiously optimistic.
