They compressed the skill gap as hard as they could ages ago in the series because they knew that was the key to their success. CoD isn't popular because it's inherently good or something, it's popular because it's super-duper easy to play and get kills. Somebody's mom could hop on the game and get some kills.

The fact that they've added so much bullshit into the game to where the element and general concept of balance was thrown out the window is e...

I agree man. VF is definitely the most balanced fighter out there. Tier lists are meaningless when it comes to VF. I really like that aspect. You can pick any character and be confident that you can win a match without worrying about meta-level bs.

Yeah Yakuza is so bad that they keep making sequels even a decade later lol. Meanwhile Shenmue could never come close to recouping the insane development budget costs.

TTT > T3

TTT had everybody from T3 and T2 except Gon and Dr. B, gave them updated movesets, new outfits, with an optional tag feature. Fantastic game.

Shenmue is super over-rated lol. When it comes to gameplay and even story, those games are trash. Why would a young adult male in real life want to voluntarily play a video game where they have to have a menial boring-ass job of driving a forklift around, going back home, going to sleep, then doing it again the next in-game day? Come on lol. There's a reason those games didn't sell well when they first came out.

At least the Yakuza games are actually fun to play.

Actually they have. They did Battlefield Vietnam back in 2003 or so, and also payed homage to that game with the BF BC2 Vietnam expansion they made back in 2010/2011.

When has Mafia ever even attempted something like that, i.e. pandering to "SJW's" as it were? And why would they irrationally decide to do that? This fear seems unfounded honestly, because the Mafia series has always subverted not only story-telling and narrative cliches and conventions, but also video game ones. E.g. you just cannot call either game a "GTA clone" because in spite of having a big world that is fairly open, a sandbox, the actual gameplay and progression...

When was there a PR disaster? Literally every Sony console ever made has gotten a Slim variant at some point (PSone, PS2 Slim, PSP-2000 & PSP-3000, PS3 Slim and SuperSlim, PS Vita 2nd revision) and now PS4 is getting one. Sony hasn't done anything wrong at all lol.

Dunno why you got so many disagrees. That was one of the first things I noticed about the trailer, all the terrible emblems and accolades popping up constantly. It's like everything you do somehow has its own "reward" now. And then they put them in the middle of the screen to block your view. 10/10 UI design lol

Was gonna say this. Although Deftones definitely evolved past that genre pretty much with White Pony in 2000, they're still one of the best bands that ever did that genre.

You guys keep saying that but there's no confirmation of it at all. I won't be surprised at all if they never do it.

These don't shock me, and I recognized Jason's voice when I was playing through the campaign for either United Offensive or CoD1 a few months ago.

Oreo, you should go read up on Gearbox's history before dismissing a guy's (actually true) rant as "bitter." Outside of the first two Borderlands games, they never actually did anything noteworthy or spectacular. The third Borderlands game, the Pre-Sequel, was complete fucking garbage and you could see they totally ran out of ideas already. Battleborn was a flop.

Their stint with Aliens: Colonial Marines was just hilariously mishandled and it's a sham...

Loool that was my first thought. I'd be enjoying the whole journey but then be aware that ME3's ending is the only thing I can truly look forward to. The only way to avoid it being to just stop before you get to it.

Phantoms isn't even that old. GG Ubisoft lol

@Shaken

It gets annoying when you can see a bright reflection in your TV coming from the controller. It's a silly gimmick that doesn't need to exist, but it does anyway. What happened to the simple small LED's like in the DS3?

AW SHIT, IT'S TIME TO SPLIT!!!

I love TimeSplitters even to this day. Those games had a perfect blend of bizarre, cheeky, absurdist humor, and had shit-loads of content as well. The third game literally had 150 playable characters in the multiplayer. I remember how you could create your own maps and then upload them online for others to test out/enjoy. TS2 was also amazing. It had LAN support so you could have up to 16 players in a multiplayer frag-fest if you wanted. I...

I'm on the hype train. Loved Human Revolution. This is the only upcoming game I care about at the moment, lol.

Did they even release any real DLC for this game? How and in what way can this even be a definitive edition?

3493d ago 4 agree1 disagreeView comment

That's not a good sign at all. I do not believe they refuse to show it just to "keep things fresh and surprise people", especially since the game isn't terribly far off. Too many red flags for this game already.
