Pokemon games have ALWAYS only had one save spot. Show me a new, first-party game that is using the same oppressive technique.
Just because Nintendo allowed Capcom to do this, it isn't an indication that they are in favor of it. You're making a huge leap in logic and, unfortunately, you're argument falls short of landing on the other side.
Since when is Gamestop not allowed to sell a used copy of a title for a set period of time after release? I'm seeing lots of "facts" being bandied about with no substantiation.
If this was really Nintendo's doing, wouldn't you expect that first-party titles would all carry this limitation?
So far, Capcom is the only publisher to take this step. To the best of my knowledge, this functionality (or removing the necessary feature to delete saves) would have been possible on any cartridge/card-based hardware. Do you have a link that indicates this is a new feature in the hardware?
All of the research I did indicates to the contrary. It surprised me, but if you read the piece, I go into detail about it.
This is a really well-written piece. It is very disappointing, but not unexpected, that The Redner Group was fired. 2K needed to distance themselves not from the tweet heard round the gaming world, but the backlash and misinterpretation.
Some of the reviews for Duke are absurd. An F from 1up? Ars crapping on anyone who actually *did* like the game? Yeah, those aren't journalistic takes, they are cries for site hits. I've read tons of reviews of broken games on these s...
It's not going to be game of the year, guys... it's going to be *drinking* game of the year. :)
You make me sad.
Holy crap. First, we put both "Xbot" and "Sony Defense Force" in the intro to this article as a joke. We used both so as not to offend (equally offend)? and I can't believe that anyone is upset about this.
Second, have you even read the dang piece? There is no flamebaiting at all. If you consider those terms, absent of any incendiary content or intent, to be flamebaiting, then you need to take a deep breath.
C'mon, guys. Clearly, t...
At this point, even if PSN is back up, DCUO won't be. The SOE attack that followed the PSN attack has forced them to pull all of their game servers offline.
I certainly understand your perspective. To be fair, though, please don't accuse someone of plagiarism when the article clearly states that the material was gathered independent of other sources.
Thank you.
Did you read the article? I called them myself. Nothing was copied from another source.
Thanks for having me on the podcast this week, guys!
It's either spend the money on the guide/laminated move cards or spend a bundle on ink and good paper so they last. I chose the pre-printed option with the nice art. Regardless, those of us that chose to spend our money have the right to an error-free product.
This is, supposedly, an "official" guide. These errors are not ok. Admitting them doesn't make it better. Those of us that paid for the guide have every reason to be upset.
We just found a few errors that they missed in their errata, as well. Mileena's 2nd Fatality and Stage Fatality are incorrect. Prima f'd this up big time.
Spoke with @MK_MortalKombat on Twitter. They have reported this to the web team. Hopefully, they pulled the dang thing down to repair the major problems.
Can't believe they let this happen. The site is still glitchy, but I'm not getting other people's data now.
My opinions in that piece come from not having anything interesting to put in my Wii in a long, long time. Additionally, I think it's silly how many iterations of hardware they go through, adding things that should have been included all along.
I love their core franchises and think that the 3DS is going to be amazing once it has the library to support the hardware. It's just that they abuse the customer so thoroughly, that it's hard to believe in them, even when ...
Hope you like it! It has it's flaws, but I enjoyed playing it and writing up the review.

I'm using my first 4th bubble comment to say thank you for the thoughtful, well-reasoned reply! You're the bestest, Cat!
