Well, that remains to be seen, the initial base is good but that doesnt mean they are clear of the woods yet - if they simply add characters and modes then by all means it will be cool, and expand upon an already solid title, but if they start trying to milk it too hard, and throw in random characters, advertising and so on.. it could easilly go downhill.

I think you're just criticizing for the sake of it. There's nothing catastrophic about the game.

Bolded so you can follow along a little easier.

I can tell you're Sony fan. Your pessimism screams it.

M$ can only screw it up.

Season 1 now and season 2 later. Plus original KI, plus story mode.

Before they start inventing they gotta deliver what the gamers paid for.

I think you're just criticizing for the sake of it. There's nothing catastrophic about the game.

It's mechanics is praised by everybody that gave it a try.

Bolded so you can follow along a little easier.

Bolded to let you know that gamers will be able to pay $40 Friday to have second season.

The plans are already laid out, there's no way they gonna stray from the og plan. There is no if!!

To be precise, I'm a PC fan, as such until something is complete and in front of me, it's future is 50% excitement, 50% anticipation of dissapointment, comes with the territory of PC gamers.

We can skip the topics of half life 3 and duke nukem forever if you don't mind.

Interesting fact, the last console I was a "fangirl" over, was infact a PC Engine Turbo Duo.

Lol I'm just kidding selnor


Sorry. Its just yet another Microsoft thread getting killed by sad Sony fans. Its rediculous. Double Helix deserve praise, yet we arent even aloud to give them that in our own Forum section. Its getting pretty bad now.

Its pathetic.

I'm sorry Selnor. I remembered you being a pretty easygoing guy back in the day. Don't know what happened but I hope everything works out for you.

EDIT: Oh, I see now you were talking about these anti-KI posters. That's what I get for only reading the OP. I apologize for contributing to the fireworks. I'll try to be a little more aware next time.

Are you that desperate?

The reviewers say it is one of the best fighters for ages. Its down marked "currently" for content.

Its pretty unanimous that its got the best mechanics as a fighter. Some saying when it gets more content in March it will be possibly the best fighter ever.

Keep trying though Kyliedog. Forgot that yu dont actually read the reviews. Just look at the scores. ROFL. In March when they all re review it will likely meta in the 90's.

A game with 6 characters and 1 mode scores the same as Killzone Shadowfall. Why? Because its gameplay is flawless.

Bolded is just laughable. KI is reviewed as a free game. Expectations are much, MUCH lower. The reviewers are saying for something free, it's good and you should play it, but it's not amazing. Killzone Shadowfall was reviwed as a $60 game.

There's reason indie games tend to score higher than full priced games. They cost much less, so getting a high score is not as difficult. 

Kylie pointed out a fact and you calling him "desperate" is flaming. He never attacked you.


Do some research first.

6 characters is not free.

Free allows you 1 character.

Killer Instinct with both Season passes next year will make a full game content and be $60.

So yeah when theres more content it will rate much higher than Killzone at the same price.

Again, @bolded. 1st bolded: correct use of "will". 2nd bolded: incorrect. You can't say with absolute certainty that it will rate higher, only that it could or might. Also, it's highly unlikely that it will be re-reviewed by every reviewer (as pointed out by another guy). 

Ad hominem attacks against Sony fans, whom you call "sad", surely don't help your case.

There are many Sony fans who dont come in here with an agenda. So its obviously not aimed at all of them. But its clear who keep doing this over and over.

I dont enter Sony forums with Anti Sony Crap.

O

Anyway, if you could show the same appreciation to other gamers preferences regardless of console, as you do for the games and console you like, things would be a lot nicer around here.

Its funny because just this week selnor was saying gt wasnt quality... yet somehow KI is amazing

its free with one rotating char to use.  to get others its $5 per char but when you spend $20 you unlock all 6 char + 2 when they are realsed.  story and arcade are coming next year for free


Is this confirmed? Because i remember qhen the price stragety first was announced i got attacked because it was too easy to over charge that way and suggested this as a solution. Everyone responding to me said MS shouldnt cater to people who dont plan ahead which i found so stupid. If what you say is true theen bravo
