Let me tell you something. Dollar for dollar I've had a blast with the 3DS. I have zero complaints. It could be a little better, but then again what isn't.
I have tons of games for it and I play them all. Nintendo has a bright future with the 3DS.
I should have been more explicit in my response.
tablets and smart devices are a part of our modern culture, however the gaming aspect of it is not even in its infancy but in experimental stages.
First, no casual game, no matter how popular or how much it makes can take the place of the OUYA, let alone your preferred home platform. Why?
According to analyst and based on my own personal consumption, the best software titles these devices offer, are not...
Nice editing man!
Pretty sweet.
Yes they could. But it would be nice to have some of their games on the WiiU. This focus on mobile gaming is a mistake. They should put those resources in WiiU development.
Even Activision is reserved to the whole In-App pay model.
If you thought DLC was rappage in your wallet....wait until you pay $99 real dollars for 1,300 Monopoly Hotel coins. Which by the way is an EA game.
Trust me when I tell you that unless a different business model is adapted, the smart device era of gaming will die a quick death.
I'm not sure if you know this, but they are accrediting the WiiU as one of the reasons for economic growth in Japan.
Guess they are a winning team, Capcom and Nintendo.
My understanding of this was that Rare was coming up with concepts, but Mii's came out of the gates first.
At the time and (really ever since) although they were planning and doing concepts. The working model was already in play.
However, even if they did first or last...
They haven't really had the chance to do anything else. They've been stifled.
Other than Nuts and Bolts that is.
Maybe. Not sure.
These guys have been trying to do something other than M$ avatars for the longest time. Sorry Rare, you where the sh!t back in the day.
This could be good news. I've been reading through the grapevine that there might be some kind of subscription model going on.
You pay more in the long run, but its easier on your pocket.
Not sure I like this model. Its like DLC on hardware.
(or cell phone plans)
Whats the deal with Visceral. I love these guys. One minute I read they are laid off the next they are working on SW.
I'm confused as hell.
Ive read Deadpool and most DC, Dark Horse Marvel and what have you. I am fully versed in what he is and what hes about.
Just seems hypocritical that dumb, fun games that don't carry names like Deadpool. Get crapped on, for whatever the reason.
There are quadruple standards all over the place in gamedom.
I'm loyal.
To common sense, and my wallet.
Thats it.
Whatever makes sense in those two realms is where I will put my gaming dollars.
Whatever it is, it will be cool. These guys are one of my favorite devs right now.
So dumb, immature fun is cool if its Deadpool, but not cool if it Army of Two The Cartel?
(Things that make you go Hmmm)
Hes a gentleman, that's why he apologized.
Maybe out of respect for his peers.
But the truth is the truth.
I hate FPS.
I want new game experiences, especially if these companies want me to cough up money for new tech.
I don't know about everyone else. But I'm 41 (this year). I've seen every kind of shooter under the sun.
I want new and exciting games not the same stuff. They want my money, I want to see some new, fresh, innovative games that remind me of those mid-summer days where I wasted away my afternoons dreaming of all the possibilities.
Not Halo with better graphics, Killzone with better graphics, COD with better graphics, Battlefield with better graphic...
Zzzzzz.
Wake me up when they have other games BESIDES shooters and the gameplay is fun as hell.
This is a joke. NEXT-GEN! to play the same 'ol sh!t.
Meanwhile the hottest game right now are rouge-type games with Atari 2600 graphics.
Could care less that EA is publishing and developing games based on the SW license.
Last good game I played that was licensed was Batman.
EA has nothing in their portfolio that would suggest they are up to the task.
Unless they intend to make shooters and some kind of racing game and of course some hybrid sports meets SW kind of game.
These guys lost their creativity back in the late 80's
Please. If we are to mature as an industry and if the FPS genre specifically is to be taken seriously, other the Bioshock games, then dark, heavy or adult subject matter MUST be tackled as long as in its fundamentals it remains fun to play.
What is it with "adult subject matter" that scares stool out of "gamers"
Gees!
