Most of us were already expecting those quite noticeable differences between the 2 consoles, like 1080p at solid 30fps vs 900p at 20 something fps.

What caught my attention here was: is MS shrinking their budget for mainstream gaming news outlets? Why are we hearing this kind of truth at GameSpot, all of a sudden? Will IGN stop reeking of Doritos too?

An HD big screen version of Fire Emblem would be awesome as well.

My list of currently trusted game makers:

Nintendo

Valve

CDPR

Sony and its studios

Bethesda

Take-Two and its amazing studios (Irrational, Firaxis, Rockstar)

Creative Assembly

Rocksteady

Paradox

A lot of incredible indie companies

@Cassius103 Talking about standards, I believe CDPR will basically teach the poor guys at EA/Bioware how to make a proper final chapter to an epic RPG trilogy.

Hint: it's not by turning it into an online shooter with an A/B/C choices ending.

I'm this close to buying a Wii U. Price drop + Pikmin 3 + pro-user system update + eShop growth is really close to making my wallet say yes.

Wow! These are the guys who turn healthy profits making gorgeous and huge AAA PC tactical war games, and now they announce free day0 DLC for the smash hit that will be Rome TW2. Creative Assembly is a truly awesome gaming studio, and it has been proven over and over.

In other news, Ken Levine and Sam Houser speak about the exciting future of story-driven videogames.

There were tales told in songs and plays before there were books and movies.

I just want to be able to experience extraordinary fusions of narrative and gameplay like the one on Braid, forever. It's all I ask as a gamer that pays for his games.

@Voice_of_Wisdom @Renato1984 Did you really experience the extraordinary fusion of narrative and gameplay on Braid, to call it "awful"?
