Too bad the system is region locked, and that is a huge No No in this day and age. When you live in Europe and a device is region locked you'll be lucky if you get even 1/3 of the games released for a system that is mostly populated by Japanese games.

I kinda feel bad for him, but that might be because I think FEZ is overall a pretty good game. It's funny though, how the game is nothing like it's creator but guess he just lost it at some point.

Not really, many of mobile games are f2p games, so piracy is actually preferred.
What makes android difficult platform to develop on is all sorts of device fragmentation.

Especially screen resolution and dimension can be a huge hindrance when developing user interface and you want it to look good on all devices. Sure you could create custom ui for all devices, but then updating the game on all platforms would take tremendous amount of work. Not to mention how some d...

So where's the Anime in this? All I see is fairly realistic looking Asian character that follows the odd Japanese beauty standards where women (and often men) need to look like dolls.

Google some pictures of Japanese idols and you'll see girls wearing so much make-up that they look very similar to the girl in the demo. Many of them are adults even in western sense.

I was so disappointed with Gran Turismo 5 that I didn't even bother with GT6. Sure the handling was great and the cars looked beautiful.

But when it came to racing it felt like racing on indestructible titanium track with a bumper cars that were equipped with 100km/h speed limiter or something. This made the overall experience very bland and boring tbh.

Then I tried shift and was completely blown away, sure the handling wasn't quite there (but close ...

The reason is actually really simple, handheld game consoles aren't that big of a deal in the west compared to next generation consoles.

If you look at the most sold 3DS games you can see that most if not all of them are from Japan. This alone tells us how important market Japan is for handheld consoles when it comes to bigger games.

Vita is actually exceptional with so many of it's top titles coming from west, and even more with all the indie titles....

Agreed, there are few things more annoying than 20 second sometimes unskippable trailers and advertisements.

Before I only used the built-in extension blocker in Chrome to block annoying flash adds. But these videos in youtube and twitch have really forced me to install addblock to regain at least some sense to the pages.

One thing which in my opinion should be taken in these debates is the actual physical size of Ps4 which is pretty small and aesthetic for the eye compared to your average Gaming PC's.

space is always a luxury that some have and some don't.

For me many of the current indie games are far better than a lot of the AAA-games on the market.

They actually offer some actual FUN gameplay instead of "movie like experiences" filled with cutscenes and quick-time events and endless amounts of dialogue.

Comparing them to SNES games is ignorant at best. Sure many of them embrace retro-graphics, but these are usually accompanied by the amount of content, fun gameplay and modern features such as Onli...

True mods make some of them somewhat better in that regard. But many of these games fit far better for handheld device than a gaming pc.

Many of them use pixel graphics or low poly models which look fairly rough with 19"+ monitor or TV that has like quadruple the resolution of the actual game assets.

Not forgetting that many of the rogue-likes have just about right single session length for bus trip or they work well with pop-in-and-out game sessions.

Actually Vita is amazing for many of the recent indie gems like Hotline Miami, Spelunky, Terraria and such.

The Screen size and the resolution is just the right size and the touch-screen solves many of the issues for games with mouse heavy user interfaces which would be cumbersome to use with just buttons.

No gameplay and focus on graphics...

Oh well, at least we still have CroTeam and their Serious Sam franchise. Serious Sam BFE is far closer to real Doom than Doom3 and likely Doom 4 ever will be.

Real term here is probably and air-dasher or arc system works fighter.

But yeah, their fighting games seem to have a lot more story than most other fighters. They do have the normal "arcade" story mode as well so I don't really see whats the issue.

Besides getting to know the characters and their backgrounds can inspire you to be better player with them, and for some it might even give more reason to fight.

Your proof is invalid and association fallacy at best. Besides there's really no way of knowing that you are from Vietnam, or that you know what you are talking about.

Still if it's a ploy, then it's a clever one and he has managed to pull it off really well.

I don't really hate it, but don't really understand what makes it stand out so much.

it looks monotonous at best, but guess it's because it's challenging which is rare these days.

I Agree with BadlyPackedKeebab.

Unity is probably the most flexible and easiest game engine around these days. With it, it's really easy to develop for multiple platforms at once (even Linux!)

besides..

Yeah, using reviews for safeguard from actually bad games is fairly good way to go.

Many of the 60%+ Meta-score games are actually pretty good. Maybe not worth their full value, but then again very few games are.

But below 60% should ring some bells as those games might actually have some serious problems.

Yeah, reviews have changed.

Nowadays you really need to be careful whose reviews you trust. Even the majority can be wrong, world wasn't flat eventough many experts said so in the past.

Then Better start spreading the word about the game, as their kick-starter campaign is struggling.
