"Did I assert as much? That word doesn't mean what you think it does. I said that's what it sounds like, which is not the same thing"
I'm afraid this isn't about whether I can use a word correctly, but more can you read. I referenced Ganstas assertion. I never accused you of making one.
"You conveniently ignore that I have outlined his framing of the issue"
Your framing was...
"It's convoluted? How so? How much do you know about the story, gangsta_red? Sounds like you've drawn that conclusion"
Whats been the biggest factor in determining this game recieving media and fan coverage? It's made by Hideo Kojima, who in case you've not realised tends to make over convoluted narratives. Asserting this game will be convoluted is not an empty assertion when you know Kojimas track record.
"And I love the &q...
Really depressing list across all platforms.
"Killzone: Mercenary is best handheld shooter"
Do you not play many shooters? Because KZ: Mercenaries is decent but it's definitely out of place in any list talking about the best shooters on handhelds. Splatoon 2 is already a better example of a handheld shooter that out does many other competitive shooters in gameplay, map design and core mechanics.
"Crisis Core had that best CGI and presentation ever for a handheld."

@Scar-
Aaaah a fanboy approaches.
I'm not going to address most of your comment because you completely missed the point and ran as fast as you could to white knight for Sony as though it was an attack on them. Are you against developers deciding that they want their game to have crossplay? Yes? Then you're in favor of developers having autonomy over their game. If not then I suggest you not talk about developers having creative freedom because you...
"KZ2 was my favourite MP on PS3, but was KZ3 MP good - not really. See how this all works?"
No I don't because KZ2 could barely maintain full lobbies before KZ3 even released (and guess what happened when it did release). So you're now claiming games that are good won't have this issue, but then say a game that had this problem is good. You cant fallback and claim a sequel made players leave because there were issues before it even released so if anyth...
"Sony will be criticized for cross play, but MS won't be criticized over F2P."
What on earth are you talking you talking about? You've never seen MS be criticised for locking games behind a paywall? We can go back and look at the comment section when Sony announced it would be locking MP access behind a paywall and the overall response was to "i'm not bothered" but before then we'd always praise PSN being free. You come to me and say &quo...
@King_Noctis
If you raise a point and someone's argument to counter it is Whataboutism then they have no argument.
"TK, what in the world are you talking about? Wake up. Have some coffee."
Your inability to be consistent. I know it's difficult for you but give it a try.
"I'm not picky. It's you that are picky. I'm not going to complain about free games being offered."
They're not free. This conversation has been had years ago so stop bringing it to the table when you know what you're saying is false. If yo...
@oldboy
No you literally don't understand the difference between the PS4 and Switch userbase. Nintendo fans love this game because it's literally like Advance Wars and I've seen loads of Nintendo fans talking about this game before the Switch even released. It also follows the trend of Indies on the Switch outselling it's competitors platforms in some cases multiple times over.
"Doom and gloom mate - if the game is good it'll find...
"PS4 owners can play within their community"
You won't have a community to play with. I know you want to believe that the online population for MP games is fine on PlayStation but this game will sell more on the Switch than all other platforms combined. You're going to want crossplay with the Switch or the PS4's online mode is going to die fast.
"Amazing how so little few PS4 owners care about CrossPlay, seriously don't see many at all."
Except many of us own a PS4 and do care.
@Jin
100 million users aren't playing online on Sony's system. Sorry but if you thought Sony had 100 million PS+ subscribers you're deluded because the actual number is 34 million, and even then those users are going to be spread out among 100's of games so yes you're definitely going to want crossplay if you want some of those games to still be playable in the future.
I even remember many of Sony's exclusives last gen struggling t...
So if Sony is doing bad in one area we should talk about how MS is bad in a different area for some reason? Sounds like deflection to me.
Dude weren't you the one telling everyone to shut up and stop complaining? Whats your response now that based off popular opinion its a much better month now? Are you personally gonna stick to your guns and say they should still have stfu or admit you were wrong?
I like how your entire comment is one giant straw-man as well. I've responded to you numerous times saying both PS+ and Gold are anti-consumer and you still peddle this false narrative. Or are you only able...
So if we can't complain about free things are you saying that I can't criticize Valve if they make a bad update for DOTA 2? Are all F2P games now void of criticism because they're free?
This is how Marvels-Spiderman got boring for me.
Step one: Equip battle focus... Oh wait it's the first one you get so there's no need to unlock other suits.
Step two: Focus all your skill points into getting the chain finisher skill
Step three: Equip every single perk that allows you to gain additional focus via things like web attacks
Step four: Get halfway roughly just under half way through the game to unlock the 3rd focus meter
I mean there was a heavy overlap between all 9 of them. At the end of the day the Valkyrie Queen was basically the same enemy but with all of their moves mashed together so to be honest I can't really praise recycling the same enemy like that.
"According to information obtained by the Wall Street Journal, Sony CEO Kenichiro Yoshida has revealed that the company will position the PlayStation as a niche product aimed at serious gamers."
Where was it said they're targetting a "niche" audience. I'd absolutely say it's necessary to target hardcore gamer in the first couple years, and then get the casuals on board later via things like price drops or bundle deals. Early on though the har...
