I don't do nice when it comes to phony (sony)

That's so clever and cool!! I could never top that!

(I mean no offence Ronster, I just love any opportunity when I can actually use this video)

OT: I can't say that I hate any company or am even particulary unfond of one.

For me definatly Activision. They continue to make crap Chash Bandicoot games.

The Pokémon Company, because they do nothing besides Pokémon. The series sucks these days because it's game after game, and there's no pause on it. I love the series, but even I now when to stop doing stupid improvements (a.k.a. Platinum formes).

Raven Software, i was really stoked about X-Men Origins (for the wii version) and it bit them in the ass later on due to poor poor sales (obviously from shity work). and every other dev who outsources wii versions of multiplatform games that turn out to be bombs.


avtivision too witht their GH series
Lucas arts too.

I'm pretty sure Activision doesn't own Blizzard. Blizzard and Activision merged and became Activision-Blizzard. And before the merge Vivendi owned Blizzard, and now they own both.

Why is it Activision-Blizzard and not Blizzard-Activision?



Games4Fun on 01 July 2009

ABCDEFG.......... No, but really they merged. As I said in the post above him Vivendi is 52percent stock holder. Someones name had to come first.

and list reason why.

Activsion.120 bucks for a $60 and a hunk of plastic worth $20.They are stealing your money.Don't buy guitar hero 5.

Why did you give the bolded as examples? Neither of them has ever made a subpar game, and the majority of their games are excellent.

I'm beginning to strongly dislike Activision. They milk all of their series to death, claim the PS3 is dying, and only really have one great franchise left.

I would say Valve because Gabe Newell is a dickhead, but they are still quality developers, so I can't possible hate them.

OH, activission own blizzard that means they own, World of warcraft, warcraft RTS, StarCraft and DIABLO. Which is that one frachise you think is the only one they have left

I'm pretty sure Activision doesn't own Blizzard. Blizzard and Activision merged and became Activision-Blizzard. And before the merge Vivendi owned Blizzard, and now they own both.

I don't think they own blizzard either

WUT?

1.) It's called The Pokemon Company for a reason.

2.) There has been a new gen ever 3-4 years and they've evolved the series quite a bit.

3.) It's not like a series that still sells in 10 of millions is going to die because of your opinion.



Pixel Art can be fun.

Pokemon is aimed at newer gamers.  Always has been and probably always will be.

Nintendo isn't making Pokemon for the grizzled veteran who has filled the Pokedex of every other version since Red/Blue.  Nintendo is making Pokemon for the 7 year old who just got her first DS and is looking for a fun new game to play... and the bags of money the series brings in yearly.

Either you accept the series is what it is and enjoy it, look at the spinoff Mystery Dungeon games and the like, or just accept that you're not part of the game's target audience anymore.
