That quote would be correct if he replaced the beginning with Squaresoft.
"and then there are people who shouldn't have the priviledge of thinking"
Like you, right? If you're going to state an obnoxious opinion, at least be consistent. I've never seen so many contradictions in a single post before.
Morgan is a fucking joke. I can't stand this womans opinion, she has no clue about gaming. She's nothing more than a fangirl, she only likes a few types of games and sticks to that, and couldn't spot a quality game beyond those game types to save her life. Her opinion she has on certain things is just downright laughable at times, and this is a perfect example.
Has she ever made any complaints like this about a Ratchet and Clank game? She's a total Ratchet...
Ballmer is one of the most distorted men in business. Its almost comical watching him take questions about competition. Its hilarious how much he dodges things or gets uncomfortable talking about another company doing a better job than Microsoft.
Well considering you got Yoko Shimomura doing the soundtrack, and Yasunori Mitsuda doing the main theme, of course the soundtrack is great :)
"And it's the game I've been waiting for since 1994."
Absolutely. I was worried we'd never see the day lol.
You know it is pretty hard to believe that Sakamoto and team really never have had to make a 3D engine. Kinda crazy to think we're on the 3rd gen of 3D consoles, and Nintendo still hasn't used them for a bigger project, only handheld titles and like one console Wario Ware game.
Apparently someones never heard of Google...who the fuck calls helplines anymore?
And whats wrong with a giant iPod Touch? Is that supposed to be a bad thing or something? I can't ever recall a time when people dogged on something for having a larger screen.
If Apple didn't redesign all the applications or optimize the entire platform for the larger display, and basically just took the iPhone OS and upped the resolution then sure you could call it just a giant iPod. But its all about the software, and since the software has been redesigned and o...
Wow, so iPad games have a higher resolution?
Don't be. A lot of people seem to be skeptical because they think Team Ninja is in charge, but thats not the case. Sakamoto and a lot of the original 2D Metroid designers are in charge of the game. Team Ninjas involvement is really only on the 3D engine and programming, Sakamoto wanted to use an engine similar to the "flashy Ninja Gaiden engine."
Pachter, again, completely missed the point of that question.
Its not just common sense. Its not common for high level executives, that lead entire company divisions, to just up and leave because they got "tired" of working there. Its a career, its not surprising to see someone work at a career job for more than 13 years...lmao.
Especially considering his poor performance, and Microsofts STRONG desires to lead in those sectors? I think its more common sense to put two and two together, rather than believe whatever fabricate...
I hope we see an official announcement at E3 for a NA release on both these games :)
Yup, the reason this guy got canned has much more to do with the other sectors of Microsofts entertainment division. Windows Mobile completely became irrelevant within 2 years, and NOW one of Microsofts good partners (HP) dumped WM and now has their own mobile OS for Microsoft to compete against (WebOS), both in the emerging tablet space that the iPad is creating, and also the much larger mobile phone space.
That entire division at Microsoft has failed more times than can be...
FF games don't sell well anymore? Thats all the more reason for them to remake their HIGHEST SELLING version of FF ever. Even though that's not true, seeing as FF12 sold very well and FF13 was a success as well. Maybe the slightly lower than normal sales have to do with the lower quality as well? If you abandon your core fanbase, then who do you expect to purchase your games?
And thats all the more reason to remake FF7, something thats clearly in high demand and s...
Fixing a script that is rougly translated doesn't take NEARLY as long as imagining the entire script from the beginning. They could hire a SINGLE person to relocalize the script, thats simple shit.
And like I said, they would have to redo some concept art and things like that. But once again, since they have something to base it off of, the artist simply has to take an existing design and translate it to modern graphics. That takes nowhere near the same amount of time ...
And you realize a lot of the time spent on developing FF13 was creating the game design concept, creating the story and writing the script, doing all concept art, developing the characters, balancing the gameplay and tuning the battle system, coding the engine, etc.
And you realize they don't have to do any of these things to simply remake FF7, which already has all these foundations laid down. If they were going to make a true remake that stayed true to the original, th...
I bet Treyarch guys jizzed as soon as they heard about the Infinity Ward thing. They're like "yes finally people will not think of us as the throwaway COD developer!!"
Little do they know the COD franchise will just die away with them at the helm.
Congrats on being congratulated by Ted Price for congratulating him.

Because in case you haven't realized by now, people are incredibly obnoxious and self-absorbed. Most people, but not all.
