Losing, its dead. I have resumed my gamespot ways and still hardly even come to this board anymore. As much as I have always hated the place, system wars actually still moves faster.
Anything that gets sessler off my tv is a good thing, I always thought the channel was mostly hokey anyways, and I have always preferred livestreaming for E3.
I think the name is stupid and awkward. Still loved the trailer and cannot wait for he game, I have a feeling I will love it after how much I liked the reboot.
Infamous. They have been really good. The first Crackdown was okay, but they went the no story route and it gave you no reason to invest yourself. It was like GTA freeroam mayhem, with a point, as it actually progressed the main storyline, but was still just causing mayhem and killing over and over. Plus the whole, "who you take out affects the gang" becomes, you could kill a gangs big bad right away but better to clear out the lower hideouts first. And the sequel was just trash.
Plus Infamous has actually put out some decent DLC content that is okay enough to be standalone.
Pros: maybe an online game I might enjoy that is not tacked on co-op, or the COD type competitions and jerks that are why I hardly play online in the first place.
Cons: its on Nintendo. the way they have treated online up until this point can their online infrastructure handle this if it became big? and can I just get on and play and find my friends, or do I have to jump through hoops and friends code type bullshit.
Really? Nintendo did not come up with the wii as a way to compete (or not compete in their own words)? If all games went on all systems they would have to lower it to lowest possible platform, thereby neutering everything to Wii U standards, same way android devices are sucky compared to apple, not because the gear is bad but because developers have to develop for the cheapjack 60 dollar wal mart phones as well as the galaxy three.
Exclusivity is going the way of the dodo but still not on Nintendo as for the games they get. For that to change everything would have to be dumbed down, or you would have to force Nintendo to make better hardware. I do not see either happening without regulation which is an even worse concept. So yeah, take one thing I said and simplify it without looking at the bigger or feasible picture. Nice try.
I love cracked but that article was pretty bad. You need different companys and systems and exlusives, and not just from a money for the company way. just look at EA and football. One size fits all leads to stagnation. Besides anyone who has ever run a computer has dealt with OS and drivers and all the other things that come with open systems.. Diversity between companys and systems breeds competition and innovation, or at least it should, and if we are letting multiple companys sell us the same shit that's on us.
So yeah short sighted with no actual understanding of how the tech business works. Go back to writing books Mr Wong, loved John dies at the end.
