It makes no mention of any console versions of these games. GFWL is free on PC as well. The article also states that there will be a free to play option for the AOE game itself on GFWL. So they are hardly monopolizing subscription fee's.
The joys of an open platform...
'ONLINE'
Damn you online MMO's, look what you have done!!!
In all my years of AOE, SC, supcom, HOMM. I have never felt compelled to play online and have had unlimited replayability from the A.I, now it's online only. I spit on you M.S.
Oh wow thanks so much blizzard overlords, can I have a free punch in the kidneys as well.
Everyone hold hands and thanks them for their unprecedented levels of kindness in ALLOWING the paying customers to change their usernames...
Gaming industry standards sure have changed. People used to get excited for free DLC. Now people feel grateful when a broken game gets patched etc....
Shame on you all for praising such low standards.
"While Hill wouldn't say one way or the other if the upcoming Batman sequel would include any of these features,"
But the first game had in built support for 3d...oh that's right...console's aren't quite up with the OLD 3d tech yet...
I think there should be a section for general news on this site...but like the other sections now, they would be desolate and the duplicate articles and flamebait articles would still thrive.
*shits a brick* man this is the first good gaming news all year.
Every mofo game I want has been pushed back to 2011 ( and RAGE in q3!!!! ) after the massive rage delay I thought maybe I wouldn't see this game until like 2013...
By your reckoning they should have called Bioshock Aquashock...the Bio prefix is related to the genetic splicing...which is still in Bioshock Infinite...
lol. Thanks for the laugh.
Dude, the game had bots!!!, aka unlimited replayability. I've been waiting for an MP game with bots for so long.
You can play online or offline in the campaign, from both sides of the story, you can have players jump in and out mid match, or have them all as A.I controlled players. Even if the online dies, the MP will live on. Long live the bots.
I don't know what you are trying to point out.
Read my post:
"All fanboys are hypocrites"
But you are trying to point out individual examples of fanboy hypocrisy when I already acknowledged this. Like I said though. PS3 fanboys are by far worse, and I have no bias because I don't own a 360...I just see the B.S that is written.
@bobets
I find it funny you mention a few 360 fanboys, when I could write...
Disagree is not from me, no it is not my hardware, my hardware is 1000x above the required specs, and I have tried every known tweak...it just isn't ever going to be fixed.
I can live with the frame rate drops...what I can't live with is the crashing...one of the best games in recent years ( in my top 5 of all time ) but I refuse to play it again because it is so unoptimised I can't go half an hr without a crash.
What do you mean? I mean I know there aren't ladders lying around everywhere now, but when nuclear explosions occur, don't they randomly generate ladders and spew them all over the terrain for ease of use for survivors. I must be missing something.
Note to bethesda: Climbing rubble in a nuclear wasteland is apparently less realistic than strategically placed ladders made from all the invisible trees that were killed in the fallout...yeah I don't get this article. ...
As long as there is a bondage minigame involving catwoman...i'm in.
The only hypocris I see is the opposite to your point.
PS3 fanboys : "The mafia 2 demo was an incomplete build, it doesn't count!"
PS3 fanboys: "aha the 360 version of rage crashed, 360 ftl"
See how easy it is to spin things any way you like. Back to the kids table boyo. All fanboys are hypocrites, but none quite as accomplished as the PS3 owners on this site.
Another example.
Input lag for a 60 frame ( constant ) game is 16.66666... ms.
Unless there is some kind of added input lag on console's for unknown reasons...
Thankyou, you didn't disappoint me. :D
Eagerly awaiting 8800gtx's response...
They have RAGE and possibly Doom 4 coming next year as well, for a small developer they certainly aren't slacking off. They have a developement staff of like 20 people as opposed to bethesda or bioware who have like 50 on a team. Before now they were an independant company too so they lacked the funding to pump out new I.P's etc. But now that Zenemax bought them out, I imagine we'll be seeing a lot more and a lot bigger things from them.
B.S they will.
Hands up who has a 50mb/second internet connection?. Because I imagine with games being more than 50gig next gen that would be the MINIMUM speed required to download one of the games before your life expires...
If will be a long time before physcial media is dead, and gaming is better for it. Hands up who is excited for DRM on console games with limited installs and your game install being locked to your console's motherboard etc...because ...
