Thanks. At times I do miss the community from Final Fantasy 11, but to leave the game is for the better in the long run.
I stopped reading at the MMO part. I'm sorry but this article is partially written from someone who plays video games, but not an actual addict.
I used to be hooked on Final Fantasy 11, to the point it was 2 weeks before I even saw daylight. I remember quitting my full time job (Wal Mart) to work part time just to get that extra time in. However, it wasn't always like that - it started when I met people just like me online, and for the first time I actually fel...
The majority spend more time commenting than playing games, which I find ironic since the majority claim they have a backlog of games to complete. I don't mind an intelligent debate, however when the idiots start trolling, name calling, and/or resort to petty excuses I ignore them and move on. There's tons of pictures where opposite companies are friendly towards each other; yet the majority don't see this - it's the same in politics.
The behavior on thi...
Ok I'm officially not crazy; the older Zelda commercial was real. I remember watching it during an A-Team episode, and I had to get a Nintendo.
Street Fighter Alpha 3
Tekken 3
Killer Instinct 2
Sonic 3 (and Knuckles)
Xenogears
Metal Gear Solid
Resident Evil 2
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy 3/6
Those intros brought some damn good memories in gaming.
Aren't they two different games anyways? Why compare something that has no relation to each other outside being third person?
Horizon I'll try when it's on sale; Zelda I'm waiting until the hype dies off and the actual reviews come in, and the Switch is on sale as well.
I'd say Nintendo is more for the mobile market, Sony is more of the home console market. MS still hasn't found its identity yet to really be considered much outside PC gaming.
The main question I have for Nintendo, how many early adopters will KEEP their system? Yea, day 1 purchase, play for what, 6 months to a year, and resell it? The Wii and Wii U is proof Nintendo has a hard time convincing the majority to keep their consoles after a few games release, when th...
WOW! I hope in the future there's some support for Bluetooth, even if it's just for audio and not chat.
Dabi has some valid points though; Nintendo does produce false demand just to get their products sold. What I see Nintendo doing, is trying to create stock so there's a short shelf life for their products. Stores buy it yes, and that is a sale for Nintendo - I'm not talking about that. I'm referring to Nintendo wanting to keep supply low so they can act like everyone wants one.
There's moments I've gone to local stores and found some of their produc...

Yes I did read the article, and I don't put all blame on amazon because they are usually told how many of a certain amount they can put for pre-order. Even if it's a system error, Nintendo could have still at least honored those with either a second shipment, or allow a guarantee for those who paid full price rather than charge day one when the system releases.
There's other ways to handle the situation, but to tell people "no" blatantl...
Once again Nintendo underestimates their own playerbase. Glad I'm waiting to buy the Switch - If I do buy it. Scalpers will have a field day with this.
Ok I'm getting kind of tired of seeing articles about this guy on N4G every day. People need to realize this is still publicity for him whether he did something wrong or not.
I remember back in the 90's there was rumors of Mortal Kombat vs Street Fighter, and the countless magazines describing why it's not possible - yet there's a Marvel vs Capcom in 98, and late 99 Capcom vs SNK. I miss those days :(
The final expansion on Fallout 4 was a big slap in the face for me. To prevent spoilers I'll say there's certain areas that could have been reworked, as well as certain parts where certain options provided different outcomes instead of the same outcome regardless of what you did.
I bought the season pass as part of the pipboy edition, I did like the game for what it offered, but the season pass was basically material they could have added through normal updates, an...
The lies, PR BS, and the community is why I quit Destiny. What cracked the ice for me was the whole Beta access fiasco that started, then the "your beta info carried over" which later Deej had some silly story on why it wasn't carried over. Dark Below was my final straw because I already saw the direction the game was going, and glad I left when I did.
I agree with the online patches; there's balance, and then there's "we don't know what w...
I preodered Ghost Recon because amazon had an offer I couldn't pass up, and because the beta was actually fun. It's my first actual purchase of 2017 (excluding a couple of indie titles), and my second purchase is Tekken 7 when it releases in June. After Tekken 7 unless something screams "buy me," or amazon has better deals, it's my only two purchases this year. Nioh I can wait until there's a sale, the other few games on my radar I need to see actual game play, no...
Of course "it's not a race" because MS isn't winning; had it been early last gen all MS did was brag, gloat, and inflate numbers. Now? "It's not a race, we're making new experiences." I call BS on MS, and their "connect anywhere" garbage. Soon as people get comfortable with Windows 10, then they will start to bring Windows 11 around, and force upgrade everyone to it like they did from Windows 7/8 to 10. All MS does is prove how two-faced they...
Everyone involved:
Society for letting greed take over
The companies themselves for taking advantage of the market for the quick $ off of little to no effort
Customers who are impatient instead of waiting for sales
Society again for not properly educating the customer for knowing the difference between a deal and being ripped off
Society once again for arguing/debating why it's OK to do this practice as long as the customer isn't ...
I agree with the author, there's way too many factors in why day 1 is no longer the same feeling like it was before. My biggest reason is the patches the games come with afterwards. My other problem is Season Passes announced before the game even releases. I look at the stack of older games I own, and I can see good, complete, fun experiences. I look at the stack of newer games, and all I see is patches, broken promises, and hype. It's not "nostalgia" like some would sa...
