More to the point, don't treat games as lacking gameplay because they don't have the TYPE gameplay games in other genres do.
I think kraenk12 has a point here.
If it's a great game- and sells well- why wouldn't it be okay?
I hate when people try to call out someone else's "logic" by making something up that isn't that person's logic at all.
So they've been getting beat the entire year, but put up a few good weeks and suddenly it's the gamer's choice?
I think that has more to do with your bias against a certain other Japanese console than reality.
Didn't the XB1 NEED more updates in order to be up to snuff, anyway?
It really doesn't, Bobby. It's an angry response to someone's unnecessary trolling.
I agree with Ron. Alex has done nothing but lie- and probably intentionally- in his comment, saying things we've all known to be untrue for months now.
Rebutting him isn't indicative of a fanboy at all.
"Online multiplayer not free on PS4"
How is this a negative on PS4, but not XB1?
"Phil Spencer!"
Seriously?
I quit This can't be serious.
As capable as the Vita is, this does not look like something it could pull off.
But they won't. Portability means these devices can NEVER have the same power potential as a non portable device.
Let's say the iPhone 17 is the size of your finger and stupid powerful. Now take that tech and fill a space the size of a console.
Here's another example: computers in the 70s would take up entire rooms. Now we have watches that are more capable. Imagine taking those watches and filling up a whole room with them. How much more powe...
I don't think you could call the current situation with the Wii U holding up a system.
Edit: So your rebuttal is to reference decent sales in one region to say that the Wii U has done well? What about the rest of the world?
Seems like a strategy shooter of some sort.
Unfortunately, I don't think that's what they did this year. Too much negativity surrounding their console and its software and its successor this year.
Other people's opinions say yes way.
Thanks to a VERY close lightning strike last night- neighbors had tvs and tablets fried- there's no Internet here, so I can't check.
Obviously, my phone is another story.
Somehow I doubt the author is the only one who has or will do those acrobatics.
Seems like there was a massive campaign to call The Order something it wasn't, then lambaste it for not being those things.
On top of that, plenty were willing to write off any and all the game did well to play up its shortcomings.
Finally, many insisted that the game was not fun for anyone, even though they had been part of the group criticizing the title before it released and they ever touched it.
Is this hyperbole?
I think it is.
Tell me: Why do you think two games releasing weeks apart is the same as two games releasing on the same day? How is a two week gap for two games the same as a slightly larger gap for even more games? Weren't Star Wars, Call of Duty, and Halo out right around then, too?
How many big titles are releasing around UC4 and R&C? Surely not so many.
Yet you want to act as if the two situ...
Because it's an article about a game?
Online is usually for the more competitive fans of a fighter, anyway. If you're hopping online, be prepared to face skilled players more often than not.
That's not an indictment on a game's accessibility, but the nature of the game.
As to the article, I don't believe the genre is losing popularity at all.
