Agreed. Vita has party chat for free yet it's a feature that certain fanboys say is worth paying $60 a year for.
So let's breakdown what you're paying for with your XBL sub:
online play?- free on PS2, PS3, Wii, PC, MAC, Android, iOS, Vita
Facebook?- free on PS3, PC, MAC, Android, iOS, Vita
Twitter?- free on PS3, PC, MAC, Android, iOS, Vita
Youtube?- free on PS3, PC, MAC, Android, iOS, Vita
access to Netflix?- free...
Sorry, I tend to believe the dozens and dozens of professional reviewers who mentioned many problems with this game over one person who mentions no problems at all with this game.
That's a very tough call if you own a PS3.
Time for XBL price increase and more ads on the dash.
Let's be real here. This is what MS will do:
start off with COD and pretend it's exclusive
announce 1 month timed exclusive DLC for Max Payne
cheesy actors acting out playing Kinect Sports 3
more cheesy actors dancing to Dance Central 3
bad young actor badly out of sync with the scripted Naruto Kinect demo
Halo 4 demonstration
show Metal Gear Rising and pretend it's exclusive
announce Kinect Spongebob Square...
A lot of people from the Nintendo Rare went to the MS Rare and look how that turned out.
Makes sense, God of War games always release in March so March 2013 seems right.
Also, just think guys Sony announced a huge game like God of War: Ascension on an averaged April day while E3 is just 2 months away. If they announced this game this close to E3 they must have tons of announcements for E3 that they didn't have time for it all.
Well, look at what Slant Six did with Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City.
Look at what Ninja Theory is doing to Devel May Cry.
Look at what Ruffian Games did to Crackdown 2.
Not to mention that Halo 4 will release with the proven unstoppable juggernaut called COD. I'm skeptical.
I would love a Heavenly Sword 2.
They forgot Crackdown 2.
All they have to do is add a Google search or some other feature that's free everywhere else and the fanboys will praise MS to no end. Just look at how they reacted when they got Youtube, also free everywhere else.
Black Ops 2 will sell much more on just Xbox alone as well.
Ever wondered why Halo 4 will be receiving "perks"?
Not smart to release this game in November. COD: Black Ops 2 will flatten Halo 4 in sales this November.
MS's arrogance is showing. COD: Black Ops 2 will flatten Halo 4 in sales this November.
"There are a few issues that break the illusion, namely that players have to perform actions quickly, then let the game catch up to them, so when reaching for the periscope, the animation will come a second after the Player has made the pulling gesture."
No. Kinect is just a causal shovelware gimmick. You CAN'T have a core experience without buttons and extremely laggy detection from Kinect. Hardcore gamers that want to play Ghost Recon are buying it to play Gh...
Day one buy.
Definitely agree with God of War 4 and The Last Guardian from the list but I would add:
Syphon Filter PS3
Agent
Heavenly Sword 2
Quantic Dream's new PS3 exclusive
Guerrilla Games new project
Totally agree. My childhood was full of good memories with Goldeneye 64, Donkey Kong Country, Persfect Dark, and Conker. Now Rare only makes Kinect shovelware casual crap. Rare fell really hard and hit rock bottom. They used to be the most respected developer but now they are the laughing stock of the industry. How sad.
Sounds like another winner.
