@Sanligo @CatAtomic999 Their business is selling hardware, software and merchandise. That's it, they're basically asking for a slice of Joe's business; it's like car manufacturers asking taxi companies for a piece of their revenue.
@hitomo @billy19joseph Fair point, I haven't actually. I'm biased I guess because I loved Crysis on PC but despised the sequals on my PS3 (PC died, couldn't afford replacement). To counter I would say that ND's track record for graphics is excellent though, TLOU looked great and I'd bet their a long way from finished with the polish on UC4
@hitomo Engine belongs on PC (where it can run properly) and nowhere else. I don't believe in the "console v PCs" argument nonsense but somethings have certain homes.
@firewalkerml Could not have said it better myself! All the anti-gaming commentators in the mass media and politics are going to jump all over it and proclaim "ALL GAMES ARE LIKE THIS" As to the comparisons to games like CoD MW2 (airport) and Manhunt, those games used violence within a narrative context (you didn't actually have to shoot anyone in the airport, hell you could skip the whole level while Manhunt implied the bad guys were just as bad as the protagonist, not random civilians)
"future actions games may never top this" Hmm, reckon Uncharted 4 might have something up its proverbial sleeve...
But all silly comparisons aside, I reckon I might have to grab a Wii U for this at some point. And by "this" I mean this game and the new Zelda when they're both out, in the future. The distant, distant future.
