"how do u know it wont be BC?"
"Also you don't know if ps4 will have BC or not."
this is an opinion piece so we're speculating anyway. for me I'd rather have it be non-BC at launch than switched midway.
well I do have a problem with the way M$ nickle&dimes me. I seriously doubt I'll buy their nextgen.
so compared to xbox originals, PS3 looks better because at least you've got an upgraded product right? but then will this be coming to 360?
now, now, PS3 fans. I'm not saying heavy rain has less-than-or-equal-to GEARS's color. I'm saying that quantic dream, just like epic, chose to intentionally mute colors for a portion of the game. see, it's an artistic design choice. big words, I know. XD
so I can understand the disagrees if you thought I was calling the whole of heavy rain a visually bland game. on the other hand if you were merely disagreeing to try and show that GEARS's muted col...
wow, and yet heavy rain's use of drab/muted color is ok to you...
you're right, I guess it's only ok for quantic dream to use that effect.
ok I have to:
don't get all high and mighty. IT'S possession, not 'possesion'.
EDIT: ok apparently I don't actually understand how IP addresses really work. anyway thanks Odion and Columbo for the info.
what a load of cr@p. there is WAY too much hate in this opinion piece considering how poorly it is written. and no, I'm not just talking about the atrocious grammar - it's full of lousy ideas that aren't the least bit fleshed out anyway.
GEARS: "The graphics failed to impress due to the lack of colour." wtf? must be written by a 12yr-old who doesn't play in HD, or understand how the muted environments serve to artistically highlight the sudden...
"For me, Gears of War has always been a system staler then a system seller... the story served only as an excuse to the campaign... The graphics failed to impress due to the lack of colour."
LMFAO what a complete waste of a click that was! I've cited some of the worst fail for you, please don't repeat my mistake by actually clicking over to read this drivel.
oh and maybe orig Fable music...
kind of a fail to call it "top 10", since it's almost completely subjective and depends on what you've played, but some good picks regardless. I would have put genesis orig MK opening music in there as well as ______ theme from chrono trigger (so many good ones but magus's is prob my fave).
tried the demo and this review is spot on.
especially disappointing:
1. yes, the voice acting is truly awful. really bad.
2. bad controls. not good to have bad controls considering the amount of 'platforming'.
3. pointless collectibles. unlike the author I can forgive the unlikelyhood of taking time to collect items while busy surviving a sinking ship... IF those collectibles add something to the story/gameplay in a meaningful way. ...
I had my doubts but this review convinced me to give hydrophobia a whirl, thanks to (finally!) some talented writing.
"Keep an eye on Dark Energy, won’t you? This is a developer that’s going places."
indeed. not only that but I'll be keeping an eye on you, Mr. Sr. Staff Writer of nowgamer.com. AND I just might go ahead and take the contributor plunge, so I can help make sure more of the good stuff gets approved.
I've always been curious to try stranger's wrath. I owned only orig xbox last gen (and now only 360) but never tried this game. and I want to. so there Yoshi.

4. reptile (but 2D mk only)
3. darth revan

Honorable Mention: crono, marle & magus!
yeah, I know many people don't like 'silent protagonists' but that never bothers me.
you might be onto something there. and I'll say this: I used to read games TM and Edge (both British I think) and the writing is SO much better than american mags. Brit gaming mags make me think they're written for grownups vs. american gaming mags that are written like they're for moronic american teens IMO.
interesting. EDGE gives hydrophobia 3/10 while games TM gives it 7/10. personally I wasn't impressed with the video I saw on XBL - but it's hard to tell because like half of all game videos on XBL are poor quality recordings. sad, really. :(
anyway thanks for the link bubs+ "Helpful"
maybe so but there's no way in h3ll I'll trust MS enuf to buy their next system.
funny!
what does this list have to do with fanboyism or trolling?
great opinion piece!
