Yes, they can, because fear is a biological reaction and is not something isolated to one's religion. Would a Christian WANT to is another story, but then again, you could direct that question to anyone from any faith. Fear may appear in different forms, but it's a universal reaction.
This question also seems to treat all who follow the Christian religion as identical, lumping them together into one hive minded mass, and that's not how things work. If two people f...
I can't criticize much of Nintendo's marketing for the Wii U simply because there's been none to criticize, and that's really the problem. Hopefully Mario Kart 8 will get the marketing gears turning.
I'm pretty surprised that it got that much money already.
Those enormous budgets are why the gaming industry is in such a bad state. You can sell a ton of copies of your game and earn critical acclaim across the board, and your company will still be very vulnerable to straight-up dissolving. We've lost a ton of talented development houses because of that.
Thank God for the indie scene. As the article said, those guys don't have astronomical budgets, so they can afford to be creative; much less is on line. They can tackle gen...
It blows my mind that we haven't seen a new Conker on any Xbox system (Live and Reloaded doesn't count).
You bet there were. Just ask James Rolfe.
Ya know, that's the problem with satire on N4G or any place in the games community. Everyone is so dedicated to their console of choice that they'll lash out at anything, believing it to be real, even when it's not.
Then, the author has to put a big fat label of "SATIRE" on any piece they submit, just so people don't go crazy in the comments.
And as any comedy fan knows, any satire that you need to explain is failed satire.
There are petitions on Change.org to put The Last of Us on PC, so yeah. Forget that petition garbage.
On topic: I'll wait until an official announcement. We've been dealing with this Fallout 4 rumor stuff for years now.
Yeah, that's pretty much the situation. The game will sell, and quite honestly, I think the franchise will continue for a while now. But a lot of new franchises are appearing and next-gen consoles are giving a lot of people new mindsets on what to expect in a shooter.
While it's too early to say for sure, I honestly don't expect Call of Duty to be the dominant shooter franchise in this new generation of consoles.
Out of all of the FPS games I've played on consoles, Halo is still one I frequently replay. Even if Halo may have been more popular years ago than it is now, I hardly believe that "its day" is over.
I'd like the franchise to continue. It's just a damn good series.
"We are uncertain of whether or not such dialogue appeared in the original GameCube version of the game..."
Guess what? It was and some people thought it was put in the game in response to the PS2 having a DVD player (which I can't really call a gimmick myself).
That being said, using this to describe Nintendo's current situation doesn't work because they've been condemned for having gimmicks themselves. The dialogue implies that the...
As a fan of Mastodon, I know that their stuff is pretty technical and intricate, so I think the song choices here are good. They're heavy and great to listen to, but they're not the most superhuman, progressive tracks in their library, so they're not intimidating for a teaching tool like Rocksmith.
I love Ska Studios. They're an amazing developer. In fact, Dishwasher: Vampire Smile is one of my favorite 360 games, even better than a lot of Microsoft's first-party stuff.
Well, Retro Studios is pretty much filling Rareware's shoes now. Multiple genres of expertise, amazing quality games, recognizable franchises...it's Rareware if Rareware was still good and was still with Nintendo.
Why not? It's a great system and it's likely to be super cheap with the next-gen systems out in the wild.
I don't like him because he's not charismatic. He doesn't ever exert a sense of professionalism like Jack Tretton did. He acts like a kid in a lot of the interviews I've seen him in.
Tretton was proud of everything Playstation, but he was also incredibly humble. Even if he was marketing and advertising a system to me, I still felt like I was listening to an honest human being. Hell, even Yoshida, for all of his goofy tweets, is likable. His jokes are funny and...
Is this disappointing? Yeah, kinda. Is this unexpected? Hell no.
I'm optimistic for this year. I think it's Nintendo's opportunity to really get attention, while still playing their own way.
I know. I was referring to last year.
While I can see how making a game based on this event could offer new viewpoints in educating this generation about it, I still believe that some subject matter can be misinterpreted far too easily to be put into a video game (at least as a commercial product). Real world events of this level are hard to design when you consider that the player is taking some kind of role here, a role based around a real person involved in the tragedy. That's much harder to digest.
