Every computer game has been developed to make a profit for the parties involved and for the gamer to enjoy the overall experience. Becoming politically correct in game development would violate and overstep the one place where gamers truly enjoy going to when gaming. Their own imagination creates a venue when playing a game that distracts them from the bullshit of the everyday politics and stress. Let the gamer choose what game to buy and play and not demand from developers what ought to be developed for any specific gender.Really take a back seat and just buy the games that you enjoy playing. Demanding equality in a dam computer game makes no sense.
Bungie's title Destiny should be called the Halo’s Homeworld, because if they claim this is new and ground breaking, they better listen to Homewold’s narration within the game. So they don’t understand how anything can be bigger than Halo….Rome was at one time bigger but their own conceit and pride ushered in their own demise. I like Bungie and wish them well, but I have played epic games that make Halo appear small and unremarkable in comparison. So before they claim fame within the PC gaming world without intent on releasing this game for the PC they need to put more than words to gain that throne. I would even dare say that console gamers would contend Bungie’s claim as well. How many developers claimed this place of excellence before they released a game and when it was released it became the instant unremarkable release of the decade. So Bungie, a word of the wise….excite the gaming community with facts not fiction with demo's not an artist’s stroke.
I will hold final judgment until the games release.
Well for me, buying a game with extras gives the person who bought it a piece of gaming history that as years pass by, the opportunity to reflect upon and remember the overall gaming experience. To say that it has no or little value or is just junk, exposes the narrow views of the critics in this clip. When I buy a game with collectors’ items I showcase the item and preserve it for future times, giving me the opportunity to reminisce the experience in my gaming room alone or with friends or family. I have been gaming for many years and have a good portion of games I have kept along with the extras that came with the games. I display them and some I have framed (disk, maps and artwork). So for some it may be junk but for others it is the piece of history that keeps the gaming experience alive. KUDOS to those who buy the games with the extras and display them. I have 6 grown kids with their own families and one 16 year old daughter that is still home. She games and collects as well, understanding that it has personal value that becomes the treasure in time.
