He was allegedly offered $20,000 if he was sexually harassed and Sony did nothing then why not sue them? Oh right because you have to have proof not saying this didn't happen but if some wrong doing did occur. That is what law enforcement is for to conduct an investigation, but to you it's appropriate to throw around allegations.
This is interesting hopefully something comes from this there needs to be a limit to these practices.
@ Moldy
We get it you love MS and it's practices and we also get that you have no problem with MT. The rest of us despise how greedy these corporations are being and how they are ruining gaming with all this BS. Funny how games in the past did fine without all this BS imagine that.
@ Septic
Nah we just call out fanboyism when we see it we know about your history and how you like to blindly praise MS while at the same time shitting on anything Sony does.
A side from fanboys on here touting how awesome the x is I have yet to run into gamers I know that are excited for it. MS is in a bit of a pickle they had to wait to out do Sony spec wise and they don't have any exclusives like Sony does to make people want their new console a side from their existing fanbase. I don't think the x will fair any better than the pro only core gamers will buy these consoles. IMO MS is going to have an uphill battle trying to convince non xbox gamers to bu...
Damn some people are seriously naive what other industry does this do movies say yeah your going to have pay extra to see the ending it puzzles me. I would say just raise the prices of games but they have already done that with the edition of special editions or season passes and they realized that some people are willing to pay theses prices no matter what. Now they are trying to get the masses to conform into that paradigm with MT. Some here say they are benign but sooner or later these typ...
Oh gamingbolt sure whatever you say must be true because there is never have any bias when it comes to xbox games.... S/ Some people like style over substance we all know which game is the true racing simulator. If you want a flashy arcady racing game get FM7 if you want a better realistic physics in a simulator GT Sport is your game. Now stop crying both games look good.
MT Should never affect a game the fact that you have to grind to get the true ending tells me that the developers purposefully did this to get people to use MT. Yes you don't have to but the fact that they designed the game ending like this suggest that they knew full well that some people would not want to grind and give in. What a shameful and blantaly disrespectful way of treating gamers time and effort.
It's no wonder that these publishers are doing this BS more than a few people on here are justifying this crap and rationalizing it like it won't get worse in time.
The only way to stop this BS is to boycott these games, I for one won't be buying, Star Wars II, Shadow of War or Assassins Creed Origins. As far I'm concern they can suck it I will gladly give my money to developers publishers that don't try to nickel and dime gamers.
@ Moldy
No wonder you support MS they are one of the most greedy companies around, yeah that windows monopoly is the reason they make money, but aside from that this is bad for video games no matter how you look at it and no amount of justification or reasoning changes that it's there to exploit and no other reason, I don't know many gamers if any that asked for this or even want it, so even tho you can skip this altogether it shouldn't even be in the games to ...
Neither screw you WB and Monolith you greedy bastards you are contributing to further denigrating video games.
I guess reviewers don't care about the shameless MT in the game why would they? They don't buy games they get them for free, and if you support this game your basically telling WB and monolith is cool to basically start putting more BS in games.
LOL. The comment section is turning all those tears into salt, some of these foo's are having a melt down.
Good games take years to develop I don't see anything remotely interesting or new coming from MS, so all that allegedly extra power becomes redundant to me without the games to support it. I know that MS is pushing this well third party games will look better and run better on the x thing but until I see this drastic difference in games the x will be irrelevant to me.
@ Moldy
Wow the justification is ridiculous enjoy the game but sadly MS is now doing what EA and Activision having been doing for a while now. It's the same BS we have been hearing about DLC and how has that turned out so far?
You still need a 4K HDR ready TV so I am doubtful the x will be this massive system seller the pro also suffers from this, I have seen the difference Horizon looks absolutely awesome in 4K HDR but many people and I mean many people are content with what they have we will see if all of sudden people start buying 4K TV's.
Sad to say I won't be buying Shadow of War, Shadow of Mordor was a sleeper hit and I enjoyed my time with it but I refuse to give up my hard earned cash to publishers and developers that try to pull this BS.
@morganfell
Where micro transactions even necessary in a game like this? To me it's the principal of the thing people will let it slide and publishers will want more and more until the product they sell is garbage so tell us how has DLC affe...
Wow some people this was never a exclusive Team Ninja was not going to port it to PC because they were not sure if it would be a success, they weren't even going to bring it to west at all until Sony convinced them to and started to promote the game. You fanboys a F' in delusional then you state you want to buy it on sale it's no wonder new ip's fail on the xbox. The only reason your getting to play it on PC is because PS4 gamers actually bought the game and made it profitable...
Some of you are hilarious "if" this happened because it's a serious accusation and Sony knew and actively helped to hide this then sure vilify them but as of now it's an allegation, and as such people need to calm down until there are more details or information. All these internet crusaders acting like Sony is the only corporation that has ever have to deal with such alleged actions by one of their employees is amusing. Yes I'm talking about all you xbox fanboys.
