How about if I have a disk it won't get pulled from my library. Look up how Apple is to pull movies from PURCHASED iTunes libraries with zero in returns or compensation. Its happening now. I know many games require online connections but I usually don't play online heavy games so it does not affect me directly.
Its boggling how many studios did not have copies or backups of their games. When I was 10 I would make backups of everything I had on 3.5" or the old famous ZIP drives. Why would a company not do the same? I know a couple of studios don't backup for protecting their work (The makers of You Don't Know Jack games have stated this as they had to build the Switch version by scratch.)
My best time playing this game was when I was playing with my buddy and hope we can hop back on soon. That being said, if Rare is going to continue to work on this I hope they...
1) Rebuild combat. Its lame and hardly interesting. Add voodoo magic, more weapon types or something to make it more dynamic. More enemy types too please.
2) Build a few larger Islands. It would be neat to not have to sail forever to do everything
3) Have some sort of true leveling. I know ...
They've mostly stopped making traditional games for the past few years to keep the program going and at this point did not have many other games they were willing to give away. it was only a matter of time.
I'd say that I'm pretty good at keeping track of what games are coming out when including "B" games. I had no idea this one even existed so if I did not know about it a regular gamer does not stand a chance.
I guess everybody should grab it while they can before it gets pulled. Unless Tim Schafer or whoever owns the IP gave it their blessing.
They should have worked on one branch of this game, made it good, shipped it and added on features like how WoW did with MMOs. They have become a joke and really tarnished most fans enthusiasm. I remember considering saving up for the then rumored 1070 years ago to play for the launch of this game. Good thing I got it as a gift and it was back when it was only $15
I had the mysterious cracking on my launch unit 4 months in. The whole rear panel was cracked and the vent was in 3 spots. I had it stored in the Zelda case from the collectors edition and was pretty careful of it. Not sure if its a defect with early systems or just a freak accident.
Nintendo did replace the back via warranty but did not repair the vents.
3DS revisions were 1 to 3 years off (XL 1 year, 2DS 2 years, New3DS 3 years) so it would not be unheard of. Also, the older NVidia chip has had some serious flaws for hacking so I would think upgrading to the more current chip might help with that problem as well as battery and other benefits.
I would think a new model would come under a 2 option model, much like the 3DS line.
Maybe something along the line of a Switch+ with a better processor, screen and battery or a stand alone TV system,pro controller bundle that would sell for $150-$200. I bet many people who are on the fence with the Switch might bite with that arrangement.
And Gamestop smiles a little bit every time another program like that gets cut. I know many have issues with Gamestop but where I live its the only option and if I had to gamble crappy packaging and possible delay of shipment over picking up at Gamestop after work the day of I'd do store pickup.
I have a strong feeling that this will be the Star Citizen that people have always wanted. But without any visual or game-play details its all in the air now. Exciting regardless.
Good. Everything else is so ambitious with this game I'd hate to see it slog down due to a high resolution or fps target.

I agree solid 3D platformers have been few and far between but I'd argue that the Rayman 2D Ubiart side-scrollers is some of the best examples of modern evolution for 2D platformers and can't wait for a #3 if they decide to make one.
It was smart to have it in their conference. For a franchise never on a Microsoft platform it was a good move to take a couple of minutes to remind people its on their system as well.
I think it would have been much more effective with a KH 1.5, 2.5 and 2.8 set for the XBOX but according to SE they have not discussed it yet but are "open".
As a fan of all of the big three, seeing continued strong 3rd party support at this point in this gen is a win for MS. Also, all the investment in the studios destroys any talk of them selling off or getting rid of Xbox after this gen. Games do take years to make and I think they were too slow in correcting from the past couple years to see anything substantial this year.
They may not have the exclusive powerhouses of Sony or Nintendo at the moment, but I was pleasantly sur...
It left every opportunity to impress behind. Oh see that giant dude! I'll shoot it with rockets and just pass by. --- LOOK! I giant tower with tons of defensive guns blasting away...cut to next scene. --- Look at me zap around and dodge and do 10 X 1 damage on a stationary target... --- Target locked on...to what? Who? Where?
--- We did it! We silenced the thingy and won...impressed?
I bust out the Master Chief collection a few times a year and enjoy it every time. I can't wait for the update this summer!
A plus. If the MC collection got the PC/cross play treatment.
General religion themes I'm fine with. I had no issues with Far Cry 5 and its crazy religion cult themes and usually don't in other games. If devs are going to make a game that is blatantly based on a religion it needs to be from people who understand what it is. As a Christian I feel many people think they know what it is but is really far from what I would consider a practicing understanding. I totally understand why it is that way due to many stupid "christians" doing stu...
Apple is pulling movies from iTunes purchases so yes they can take away games under the current understanding.
