I lost 40 hours of time in ME2 on ps3 because the game froze on me during an autosave AND THEN another 35 because of a corrupt hard drive. I actually tried backing up the save file for it and some other games before but the file wouldn't copy to usb. The industry just needs to go back to cartridges :]
I would like it to be there but if it's through Gaikai I won't pay a monthly fee to play games I already bought, and I will NOT buy either next gen system if their xbl/ psn purchases don't transfer in some way. I don't have the kinda money flowing out of my ass that allows me to rebuy the same games and content over and over again just cause. I'm tired of the gaming industry wanting peopl to buy their games over and over again for recurring profit.
Credit is definately deserved for developing a varied and interesting open world but at the same time alot of these glitches and bugs are so easily noticed after downloading and installing that it's ridiculous. Would you notice a lack of experience being built up if you were play testing something, let alone some of the other obvious things that bethesdas patches have broken? I know things happen and not everything can be taken into account but if it's going to be every patch needs a...
Well I'm alot less excited now :( Still looks fun though...
This makes me think of the Aliens demo vs. real game or the differences between the Bioshock Infinite release and the E3 2011 demo. It's a tactic of ramping up expectations and then releasing a product that may not live up to or doesn't contain what was once promised or shown. It's the Peter Molyneux cycle!
This is the kind of thing I actually want out of some DLC, and I'm VERY against most DLC. Nice one Ubi, now release Rayman on the Wii U already!
The N64 could do 70 fps... technology is going backwards! :P
I could care less about footnotes on patches. I care more about NEEDING patches in the first place and updates that force new and anti consumer company policy on people whether it's liked, necessary or neither.
The Wii could too with SD cards. The articles facts are no where near clear or researched.
I've seriously seen so many good reviews of this game since it came out on Ps3 and Xbox, but it's the same game as the Wii U version which barely got better reviews than the first NG3. Nothing against this review, it's a good one and the game is actually alright, but it would have been nice to see this kind of praise for the Wii U version too.
One of my favorite games growing up and one of the few I purchased on VC. The 2nd ruined the genre blending of the first and killed the series though :(
Unless you live in an area with little to no internet service. Oh, sorry numerous countries, rural regions and poor internet infrastructure areas, you consumers need to work harder and make everything around you shit roses so your can pay vast amounts of money to us and play our games! Great thinking.
Reads like an episode of The Colbert Report for games. Awesome article!
If I remember correctly the world has been a much more violent place than it is now without all the game and movie violence. If Congress is incapable of passing gun reform then Congress needs to look at itself as the problem instead of saying 'Oh well, lets go after entertainment next!'.
I really like the direction Nintendo is heading in for indie support, but at the moment Sony has the upper hand.
I'm replaying through the game in anticipation of rebuying and replaying through it again on PS3. Game is badass, and this article is pretty good too!
Anyone realize this is an April Fools article?
Does it support Assymetrical gameplay with up to 20 people, no controllers and 1:1 motion ass play?!?
I ignored DLC and it's all over the place now. DRM is ignored by LOTS of gamers and look at the *bright* future it's bringing. Ignoring works on things that are aggravating, not bad business practice. Bad business has to be talked about and stopped before it becomes common practice and leads to further bad business.
Wow I didn't realize tapping away repeatedly on a phone screen is now required to unlock additional DLC. Lame.
