CRank: 5Score: 21400

I don't think anything is 'way overdue for a remake'. I'm glad there's a new-ish sidescrolling Metroid game one the way, but usually I see this sort of thing as gauging the market and it's just going to cost twice as much to make a new game if it passes whatever sales threshold they need once they include the cost of this remake. I think it's clear that a new 2D/2.5D Metroid is something people want and I'd rather they invest the time and money directly into cr...

I find that women are over-sexualised in the real world, too, many times even by choice. I don't deny that there is a more perverse side to the way society views women as a whole, but the demonization of a game, or designer, or artist, or whatever because you (in the general sense, not YOU specifically) don't think they have the right or appropriate "equipment" to make a scantily clad character without it being inherently sexist or wrong for some reason.

The...

What I'm getting from this is that her costume is ok for cosplay because the woman chose it, but the design of the character isn't because...reasons?

It obviously DOES make a difference since you're insulted that they included it. It's YOU that has the problem with a woman showing skin, it's YOU that are saying that it's unnecessary, and my comment applies directly to you and anyone else who can't see past someone's physical appearance before passing judgement.

You can't say that it makes zero difference and then try to vilify the developers and deflect my comment towards them instead. You also...

Yeah, I'm not buying it to look at her boobs, I'm buying it to play through a MGS game and make what I can out of the story. If the only thing you see in the game is a scantily clad woman I think you're the problem.
I kept forgetting about her being in the game and then someone would inevitably raise their pitchfork about a woman in a game wearing something that isn't particularly more revealing than things some women choose to wear in the real world. What you see as ...

It's not terribly far off:

There's more stuff overall, but the textures and, in some places where the level of detail settings were changed, the actual polycount hearken back to an older system.

"overrated" may be the wrong term to use.

I think they missed a lot of opportunities to showcase 'next-gen' gameplay to go with their amazing story and visuals, the biggest culprit in my eyes being the ladder puzzles they were so fond of. the level design is great to showcase the work put into the art and layout of the levels, but we were still shoehorned into standing at the right spot to activate the puzzle's solution instead of something a little more...

I didn't get it at first and thought that you just didn't know what needed capital letters and which didn't. Kudos for the double-take

that's not how businesses work. now, more than a week ago, they need to think about the future, both for their company's sake and to honor the memory of the man who worked so hard to keep the business running.

I just wanted to clarify something that I noticed in most of your replies about how people would probably get hit or something if they did this in real life:

In the real world it's not all that likely that someone will get physically assaulted for behaving the same way they do on the internet. There are plenty of instances of people going to funerals and being wildly inappropriate, but nothing is done about it because assault is rarely justified, legally speaking. People...

mature teenagers don't make up a very large portion of the general population of teenagers; their effect on the majority percentage is negligible.

"Should have".

I hate seeing this mentality. There are a ton of reasons why a demo wouldn't be presented at E3, anything from contractual obligations to just not wanting to create a vertical slice of the game as a demo, especially seeing as the game is already out in Japan. The work being done right now is most likely translation work and they would have to make the decision about offering a demo that could possible spoil parts of the game or creating a brand ne...

I haven't seen anything new about that game for a couple of years, I think. I remember seeing a multiplayer demo that was untextured and buggy-for-days, but I think the dcpu-16 was up and running in it.

it's like a competition to see how many meaningless petitions can be made about asinine things. "join the cause! you have the right to DEMAND that a syrupy drink be made"

I want petitions by the end of the hour for the following major issues plaguing our nation:

If you took a girl out and she said it sucked that should be a red flag; she either doesn't like you or is just a pain in the ass.

However, what if you took 10 girls out, and half of them said it sucked while the other half said they enjoyed it? Who do you cater to at that point? Do you continue doing what you originally planned and lose the half of girls that didn't like it but keep the ones that did, or do you change everything for the girls who said it sucked and...

E3 was great but Minecraft on Hololens killed it.

it's astonishing how you were able to miss the fact that he doesn't work for Ubisoft in that incredibly short article. you should quit wasting your breath and go back to reading and comprehension, chump.

4024d ago 2 agree2 disagreeView comment

the article is something like 500 words. can you really not take the 2 minutes to look through it? and are you saying that gtav WASN'T a massive success?

4024d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

why would you direct your comment at Ubisoft when they have nothing directly to do with the article? did you not read the part where it says the creator hasn't been there for years?
