That's an aesthetic choice, not a technical one.
"Sorry gentlemen, but it seems like ur all assuming. We can't prove that GOW3 ALONE led to PS3 sales, but it really doesn't matter. Sony sold loads of GOW3 copies and loads of PS3s so they did a great job this month. "
Congrats, you just basically have disproven the concept of ANY title, from Halo to GTA, being a labeled a "system seller."
God this is disappointing.
Next up, $80 games with 3 hour campaigns.
Just as Gears copied Winback and KillSwitch?
Give credit for great games where they are due, fanboy. UC2 is an amazing game and Gears deserves better fans than you, clearly.
Wow, didn't realize so many others like myself loved the EE's.
Apparently, not until the Hobbit guys. 2011 at the earliest.
*tear*
You may dislike them, but you can't really argue that they were not genre defining games upon their release, DMC especially.
A game does not have to be multiplatform to be amazing. Such comments spit in the face of all kinds of great exclusives that exemplified the best of their genres upon release(Halo, Gears, MGS, DMC).
"What about the false claims from PS3 loyalists?"
So I should take the stupid comments of MS, Sony, or Nintendo fanboys on some forum to heart and as a representation not only of the console and company as a whole, but also the entire fanbase?
That's just dumb. This tit for tat sh1t on here is beyond pathetic.
No problems here.
Eqyptian would rock. But I can already taste the slave rising up against the Pharaohs angle. Not that that would be a bad thing.
But I can't recall... did the Eqyptian gods have an equivalent of Olympus, Tatarus, etc? My memory is shoddy on this.
Seems like everyone, such as the Argonauts, Perseus, etc were at different points in there quests and saw different things, unless puzzles reset on the Isle of Creation. He could have taken another path and just started his own journey.
And HIS first challenge was Kratos.
Then he got pwned.
End. ;-)
Keep the same gameplay, change mythology and characters.
Let's see Ragnarok!
I don't know BC2 yet, but I DO know that MW2 is pretty awful. I have a 20mb/4mb connection, and yet I STILL can't find a lag free game (my buddy has CRAP DSL and he gets chosen as the host, then we all lag out... really? That's the best host their software could find?).
Tell me, why are bugs from CoD4 still around, such as parties being split up?
Wow... fanboy journalism.
"It was a huge blow to many of the Sony fanboys when Microsoft finally nabbed the proverbial golden goose that is Final Fantasy XIII and got it on the Xbox 360."
Um, isn't it more important to note that a great franchise has for the first time gone multiplatform? That more gamers get to enjoy it? The industry implications are far, far more important than how the fanboys react. E3 is about great new things coming out for gamers to e...
Cool. Maybe I can finish my backlog before SCC hits the PS3.
Valkyria and Demon's are amazing. You should really check them out.
Me personally? Not at all. I think for myself and play what I want. But it saddens me to see other gamers using stupid scores as ammunition in these lameass console wars.
Kessler was an amazing, kinetic fight. I was really impressed with all the bosses in infamous, especially considering its a sandbox style game.
Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, why do titles recently released get beyond over analyzed and nitpicked? I mean, I don't remember titles like Gears 2, Jak 2, or Super Mario World getting torn up for every tiny little inconceivable thing. Then you have the big name titles like Modern Warfare 2 get a free pass with its shoddy MP.
No game is perfect, but what's with this latest craze of "second opinion" pieces and "retrospectives?" Here's an idea, if y...
At the same time, it provides a scary precedent that yes, if it's a big name franchise, people will pay for overpriced content. So, once we start seeing $80 games and $30 DLC, I don't want to hear anyone crying about it, because you vote with your wallet.
