My reasoning is that i have an opposite opinion to yours. I was a huge fan of the original doom and the quake series and so was very excited and so was very excited at the prospect of Doom 3.
What i got was a tech demo. Doom 3 was a tedious, repetitive game which only saving factor was its superb graphics.
Fast forward to Rage and it was more of the same. Any AAA developer who can make a game about shooting mutants in the face dull is doing something very wro...
Based on Id Softwares recent performance im going to go out on a limb and state that Doom 4 will look amazing but play like utter turd, just like every Id game since Quake.
Good call, dont forget about the last line of text in the blog that references the video.
The video is pretty poor and actually confuses developer and publisher at the end, the blog made perfect sense without the video.
I dunno if the video bit is made by you but you should lose it, its kinda crap.
This blog sounds like an xbox fanboy looking at microsofts disasterous history in japan through rose tinted glasses.
"Microsoft has built the base/foundation of the house" and with the Xbox 720 they will have a greater chance, they are now ready "to fortify the house with walls and roofs" - this is hilarious!
Its turn based strategy not real time, real time would be something like Starcraft.
Beat zico isnt that hard, half the guys on my friends list have it.
And the description of Anulpha Pass as a difficult course are a joke, its the easiest course in the game.
Last Guardian is vaporware.
How exactly did Dead Space 2 suffer because of multiplayer? The single player was great so what's the issue?
Surely the same can be said about anything ?
curse my lack of understanding of the japanese language!
I bought a Wii U for my kids for xmas and now that i have finally set up and played the WiiU i can offer more of an opinion.
Firstly the kids love it so mission accomplished but for me the console is a massive ballache. The wait times when you move between options on the main menu are atrocious and this made the initial setup a drag.
The way you have to keep swapping between different controllers is dumb - if you want to play mario multiplayer then the Wii U...
I care so much because i would rather see more variety from the FF franchise within a console lifecycle. On the PS1 we had 3 different FF games with different characters and settings whereas this generation we have had 3 scoops of the same shit.
13 was awful and SE need to move on.
With this unreadable rant written in the style of a 3 year old you have certainly put the the PS3 fanboy crowd back in its place - bravo sir !
I've also never been raped in a prison shower by white supremacists but I've read enough about it to form the opinion that its something to be avoided.
The HDMI cable isnt free no more than the console or gamepad are free, the cost is for everything that's in the box - nothing is free.
Anyway the hardcore console crowd are always gonna look down their nose at the Wii U in the same way that the hardcore PC crowd look down their nose at consoles. If people want to play Nintendo franchises in HD then they will buy it, i did so i did.
Heres my take on it.
The survival aspect must come from a gameplay element which means you have something to lose. In the orginal RE games save points where few and far between, using them had a cost (typewriter ribbons), and ammo was scarce which punished your mistakes. As you metion modern games like Xcom and Demon/Dark Souls punish the player for making mistakes and this gives the games the tense atmosphere.
The horror aspect of fighting the unknown and be...
Seemed more like a summary of games released this year with lots of games and a quick sentence to describe why you liked it.
I think it would have been better to cherry pick a few games and go into a bit more detail as to why they were your GOTY.
I dont know a single game thats better with kinect.
