@deth420:

lol. just imagining what's going through the heads of Konami execs when deciding to do this.

i like money

This will be a great product for those not willing to take the dive into the MiSTer project.

I was lucky enough to get a pre-order a few years ago in the 8-ish minute window when they were actually available.

Also props to GameSpot for covering it!

@skyhighgam3r:

Everyone already has three copies of GTAV and two copies of RDR2, so yeah I guess it wouldn't make sense. R* wont be releasing another game for at least a half-decade (well maybe sooner since not many people want to play Red Dead Online, which is on Game Pass).

Says the company who owns 2K....

.....the same company who pushed NBA 2K21 to $70 even tho it's filled with microtransactions.

.....the same company who sold WWE 2K20 to actual people like it was a finished game.

Yeah those user scores add up to maybe 2 on metacritic. Tell me again about your subscription service offerings.

@tingtong: It's EA. Of course they know what they are doing. They hire teams of the best engineers and artists.....

...only for upper mgmt to jerk them around with multiplayer modes, and gaas features until they either quit or their fired.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@jinzo9988: That's more of a question for the publisher upper management, not the devs.

I'm sure the devs don't enjoy mutilating their own creation.

Let's take a minute to remember those who've gone hollow waiting for this to release......

@sladakrobot: Reviews aren't really meant to be compared. They are just a person's opinion in that moment in time.

A 10/10 just means: "Hey maybe this game deserves a look 👀". Beyond that you will form your own opinion.

People's perception of games also changes over time. We've seen tons of games get really high scores only for people to agree the game was bad or flawed in hindsight.

Anyway... That's just my opinion about people giving their opinion. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@KennyKB: Lol. You gotta just accept it. Think of it this way: who knows what will happen next?
