Its always great to be a PC gamer, in this marvelous post-Win95 world.
Gamingpro: reason it out. You want good games? Where do you think they come from?
A more appealing platform will sell better than a less appealing platform.
The more a platform sells, the larger its install base.
The larger a platform's install base, the more incentive there is to develop games for that platform.
Media presence and sales matter. A whole ****ing lot.
Games are media, kid.
And games use -other- forms of media to market themselves.
Cool. Another Amiibo that will never be in stock anywhere, ever.
I'm not worried about it because I have zero interest in it. The lack of any single-player content is pretty damning IMHO.
Dialing down pointless visual effects is a far cry from "gimping."
Any time you put "ideal" and "Nintendo" next to each other, all I can read is "Ain't ever gonna happen."
Right, but I had all those negative adjectives.
A lot of older gamers bought a Wii just for the Virtual Console.
You'd think Nintendo would be working hard to make the VC service better on the WiiU since they're having so much trouble with new games, but I guess not.
I guess it's that time again: time for Nintendo fanboys to speculate wildly about what awesome surprises we're likely to see at Nintendo's inevitably unsurprising E3 video.
Nintendo has gotten so bad that, at this point, I would actually be surprised if they bothered to announce stuff they should have announced ages ago--like a unified account system, or Dragon Quest, or Starfox.
So does this play much differently than any of the other VS games?
I should have thought the sarcasm was obvious.
Yeah, so glad Sony is making money. I particularly like how I have to wade through a ****-ton of ads to browse the Store, and have to deal with a similarly dense sea of ads just browsing the PS4's menu.
No, not now. The time to jump back in is 1.04--which, supposedly, is the patch that will improve loading times.
I love those modes. Shame you don't see them much any more. Most fun I have had with a multiplayer game was doing the Shivan Gauntlet (endless survival vs. Increasingly difficult waves of enemies) in Free space 2 at a LAN arcade.
I have a PS3, PS4 and PSV. I still don't think it's worth it.
The discounts tend to be really lame, its moronic to have to pay a random fee to Sony for online play, and I tend to buy the games I want instead of renting them.
Well, then there's Dark Souls II and it's, "BUY DLC TO SEE WHAT'S BEHIND THIS GIANT DOOR" thing.
There are a couple other doors like that.
You can't unlock them because the game keeps a coherent level design to the world, and uses shortcuts sparingly.
The time to push it has come and gone.
More =/= better. That mentality should have died off in the PS2 generation.
The criticism more than likely is about the game's pacing being uneven and given to long bouts of idle movie-viewing... which is entirely valid. For any genre, JRPG or no.
