I told Sony I want a console I can afford : Sony told me to get a job

I still bought one.

I'm literally in love with anything Atlus (Demon's Souls, SMT, Persona, Etrian Odyssey, everything!). Square is nothing but a fond memory now...

Epic is great, Valve is better.

For me its probably Valve, Epic, Bioware, Ubisoft Montreal (only because Assassins Creed), i'm starting to like Rockstar San Diego because of RDR but i want to see more from them first.

I would have said Valve were the best overall,but then they made Left4Dead which I thought was mediocre. so I'm still undecided on that.

This generation- Naughty Dog, Infinity Ward, Sucker Punch and Riot Games.

They did not fix the shotgun or the online in gears 2.

And most companies listen to there community so epic not all special.Ever heard of valve,bungie, or bizzard?

Did people ask for four player coop? I thought people were fine with 2.

Whilst Epic are very good gaming devs I believe the best are Bungie, Bioware, Naughty Dog, and Valve, they all know how to listen to their fans and they constantly develop amazing games.

According to you mate,

Insomniac, Guerilla and a whole bunch of other devs must be the best ever since:

People wanted less color and more gritty atmoshpere for Resistance 3. They're getting it.

People want the Wheel Weapon Selector back Resistance 3. They're getting it.

People want Split Screen Co Op Campaign Resistance 3. They're getting it.

 

People wanted more color in Killzone 3. They're getting it

People wanted less weight and tighter controls. They're getting it.

People wanted Co Op. They're getting it.

 

Look my point is that a lot of devs are top stuff. No dev has to the the best ever to make great games.

Blizzard, BioWare, Bestheda, Naughty Dog, Insomniac, Bungie, Valve, Nintendo, id Software, Epic Games, etc are all heavily talented devs and there are a lot more devs who are great and are able to make superb games. Everyone is great!!!

No offense too ya but you seem to be thinking that because a dev bows to every single thing the public wants that it makes them great.

Blizzard must be like a GOD as a dev since they bleed their hearts out to their WoW subscribers.

Personally I prefer a balance between listening and not listening.


Ya think?



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

There is a big difference between correcting legitimate and hugely obvious mistakes from your previous game, and taking suggestions from your actual gaming community.

I guess you're right. That's makes the Guerilla comparison more effective then since KZ2 had more complaints made about the actual mistakes compared to Resistance 2. You would notice that with the Resistance 3 comparison I made, it's more to do with community suggestions but the KZ3 comparison is more to do with what was actually wrong with the Game, just like the Gears 3 stuff the OP listed.
