When I skimmed this I could only think it was unimportant and irrelevant.
I agree with your LOL and add my own. No wonder games are being "dumbed down" for console gamers. I would be ashamed to admit that I wasn't bright enough to understand PCs. There is a phenomenal amount of information on the web and it doesn't take much effort to gain enough understanding to build your own. Sheesh!! - must be the result of the public education system and those wonderful teachers with teaching certification.
Maybe they couldn't intentionally download something that would brick your system, but if they made a system that would self destruct if modified in certain ways that would probably be okay.
Modding your system would then be like putting gasoline in your radiator instead of coolant. Nobody's fault but your own if you destroy your system.
I guess getting more of the same crap every year isn't as bad as waiting years for the next Final Fantasy and then getting crap. >.<
I like to play handheld rpgs, new or remakes. They don't require a lot of head movement or any other kind of movement. Looking forward to it even though there isn't a launch game that I will bother with.
Oh Paladz - "People like you are the reason games have become such a lousy thing. You do not care if you get a broken product, probably because you are a console owner and do not expect very much, which I can tell as you settle with console graphics."
Yes, I own all of the Consoles, as well as all of the handhelds. I also have a lovely PC with a 5870 graphics card, an I7 Processor, and dual 1920x1080 monitors. I purchased a similar one for my son. We almost never...
So says Paladz - "If you sell a game @ 60$ which have a buglist longer than an americans shopping list, then why should I not pirate your game?"
Why you should not pirate a game has nothing to do with the game. You should not pirate a game for the same reason you should not steal a car or a donut or a stick of gum, it makes YOU a thief, a dishonest person, someone never to be trusted to do the right thing. Someday maybe you will need to take a job that requires an...
You are certainly more optimistic than I. If ever they try to slip in some of the old RPG playstyle the new devotes will object violently. Button mashers don't want no stinkin' thinkin' in their games. They just wants to blow stuff up.
That list makes me wish I was Japanese or at least could read and understand the language. We'll just get some more shooters and online multi-player stuff.
Oh there would have been nothing wrong with him giving a glowing review of the game as long as he disclosed that he was one of the developers of the game. The fact that he didn't speaks to his real intentions.
I'm not so sure that being disturbed by homosexuality has to be a religious thing. Evolution would lead us in the direction of whatever is best for propagation of the species and acceptance of homosexuality would tend to be counter (re)productive.
Just a thought I never thought before.
Target audience for this is obviously not the mentally gifted or the mature. Just like it's easier to sell TV programming with sex than it is to be actually creative, the game designers probably chuckle like Beevis and Butthead thinking they and their game are really cool. Actually, they are probably similar to anyone that thinks this game is worth buying.
It could be that the launch lineup is pretty lame. I pre-ordered a 3DS for OoT. I don't want to find out that the hardware is in short supply when the game actually comes out. There are no launch games that I have any interest in.
At least in Japan they got a Professor Layton game - I would have bought that.
I love WW but every time I think of replaying it I remember the sneaking around inside the barrels part and quit before I start. Too bad because except for that one part it is one of my favorite happiest games ever.
I guess classic Russian Literature (Tolstoy and Dostoevsky) are out the the question for him. If he can't finish it quickly enough it must not be good.
I wonder if the concept of DLC is a mystery to him? Why add content to a game when it will only take longer to play through it? What a bother!
Maybe he is the kind of guy that pays for power-leveling services in MMOs so he doesn't have to play his character?
No big JRPGs pretty much means no games for me except for maybe Skyrim. I've been experiencing a 360 game drought for years because the only shooter I ever liked was Borderlands and I played that on the PC.
Unfortunately for me, the PS3 also has little to offer because it has moved away from it's ps2 roots and is now closer to XBox than ever. I don't want no stinkin shooters. I like games that challenge the mind, not the fingers.
Sony could easily fix all these problems if they included a cannister of a deadly nerve agent that would automatically be released into the room whenever you tried to hack your PS3. Sure, they would probably get in trouble but it sure would cut down on the nonsense.
Neither for me. I have Origins on the PC but since they diminished the tactical/strategy part in favor of free flowing action - Thanks for the offer, but I'll have to pass.
I'm also a little disturbed that DLC trailers were available last week. "The funeral baked meats did coldly furnish forth the wedding supper."
In America the malls are full of prostitots. At least the loligoths aren't as bad as that.
Although I grumble rawr curse and condemn lowly hackers of games, I would happily support any hack that opens DLC that is already included on the purchased disc. The bloody pirates in this case are the ones who locked the bits and bytes on the disk that I paid for.
