Except that Twilight Princess was the best Zelda game ever.
FFX was very linear and it's one of the best RPGs ever made. Linearity isn't the reason why FFXIII sucks.
Mario kart 64 is really, really overrated. The tracks are the most boring in any Mario Kart game, including the first one.
In more recent Mario Kart games, that have tracks from the previous ones, is even easier to see this. All the other tracks are more challenging and fun. The 64 ones are just too long, the roads are too large, and there are too many straight roads that nothing happens.
No FFX? Preposterous!
They must be the same people who said that Vita would destroy the 3DS.
I really tried to finish Tales of the Abyss, too. But I also got bored of it (the only Tales games I ever finished and really liked were Symphonia and its sequel).
The games in Persona series have a problem that they start really great, but halfway through them, I just want to finish them fast. The games are good, I'm playing 4 Golden right now, but there comes a time that I get tired of building the many S. Links and just want to see the end of the plot.
I'm just waiting to get back home to download it through Steam. Pre-bought it days ago.
A system's success isn't made only by hardware itself. As you said, it has lack of developer support (even from Sony), Sony is handling the situation badly... As the article says, "There are a variety of games available both at retail and for digital download for the Vita, but very few must-own titles that help justify owning a Vita in the first place".
I also think that it's possible things will change. But if it stays the same, can you honestly say tha...

Completely disagree about Tidus being "the lead character that shouldn't have been the lead character" like Squall and Vaan. Tidus was sent from the Faith to stop Jecht. Not growing up in Spira made him question things the other character never dared to question because they grew up under the teachings of Yevon (like "why are machinas considered so bad?"). And he provided one of the best plost twists ever (him being a...
Unfortunately, the change was for the worse. Unless not making any sense is good.

At first I thought you were crazy. Then you said "The twist at the end of 8 was brilliant" and I was 100% sure that you were crazy. Then you said "it was my first proper playthrough of a final fantasy" and I understood why you think those things. Nostalgia blinds us. If you had played and finished 4, 6 or heck, even 7 (I really dislike 7), you'd see how bad 8 was. Bad characters, bad plot, worst plot twist ever, bad magic system...
How I miss the times when a Sonic game announcement would get me excited. I still remember how I kept reading the same magazine articles about Sonic Adventure, wondering how it would be to play it.
Considering that 99% of N4G users don't read the articles before commenting on them, it's not surprising.
I'm playing Persona 4 Golden right now (I'm near the end), it's one of the only games on Vita that are worth playing, but it's certainly not as good as FFX. From story, to battle system, pacing, art direction, cutscenes, dungeons, and... well... everything, FFX is better. Collecting and fusing personas is addictive, but not as addictive as the sphere board.
To be fair, I hated Blitzball. But Persona 4 doesn't even have a minigame to compare it to.
Hated Lightning on top, but no Vanille in the list at least. It looks like not even japanese people like retarded teenage girls. I hope they take this as a hint to stop making this kind of characters.
You can download them during the night while you're asleep.
Yeah. Here in Brazil retail games are too expensive.
I liked the DS more than PSP, but I bought more games for my PSP because I could buy them from the american PSN. My Steam list has more than 200 games, but I don't remember the last time I bought a PC game at a store.
If they cared, they would have made sure the product they were selling had high quality before it hit shelves. The first Xbox 360 model was a mess, and everybody who understood a little about electronics could see that. It was obviously a rushed product.
They tried to deny the existence of the problem as much as they could. They only decided to extend the warranty of the console when it became impossible to hide it. And even then, it's not rare to find people who sent the...
Completely agree with you. As much as I like FFIV remake on the DS, I just don't feel like playing the iOS version at all, I stopped playing right outside the first city. I really hate touch screen virtual joysticks.
Same with FF Dimensions. If it was on 3DS or Vita, I would've finished it for sure. But on a smartphone, I just don't care about the game. I was thinking about buying The World Ends With You, but I know that if I buy it on iOS, I'll only play it f...
@jimbobwahey
"Devil May Cry 4 is the fastest selling game in the franchise"? So was Resident Evil 5. And it's common knowledge that it's one of the worst in the series. People bought it because 4 was great, they were disappointed, and less people bought 6 because 5 left a sour taste.
The same is happening to DmC. You say "Devil May Cry 4 was great", but many remember all the backslash the game got when it was released, saying that it was wo...
