What does it matter if they don't own the game? It's still the same principle of giving games away if you pay a monthly fee (i.e. a subscription). You're telling me Sony has never offered their own games on PSPlus?

It's ok if a platform provider does it, but not when a publisher does it?

One, pretty obvious difference here, is that there are 3 major platform holders and way more major publishers. On top of that, people tend to have a prefered platform holder, and most people don't even think about who publishes the games they play. That's important because it often means that platform holder comes into play when someone is buying a console.

well a lot of people here just complain about Gamepad, does it count?

And I just can't give more f**ks to PS Now and XOne.

Great question! I try not to be too judgemental about games I haven't played, but there's just some of them I know I won't like because of their setting, genre, etc. My biggest frustration is Call of Duty. The original blew my mind at the time and I've played a bit of CoD 2 on the Gamecube, which I thought was decent. My first experience with the PS3 was the MP of Modern Warfare 3 at a friend's house, and I played the demo for the single player campaign of Black Ops.

My problem with the series are not the games themselves. I'm not a fan of the FPS genre, but the games are mostly very polished... What frustrates me is what the series has done for gaming. It has single handedly turned the AAA games biz into something which isn't my cup of tea. Why I applaud them for this accomplishment, it saddens me that this focus on big MP shooters is giving ME less games to play. I stll haven't bought a PS4 or XOne because of this. I know the Witcher III is coming up and we'll get FF, Batman, Persona and Kingdom Hearts in the future, but still ... Things have changed, and I find myself turning to Nintendo more and more often. Still, I love games like Lost Odyssey on X360, Sly Cooper on PS3, but I doubt we'll see a whole lot of games like this on the next gen.

To round up, I'm just really happy Nintendo is doing its own thing. And while I may criticize some annualized action heavy series sometimes I don't do so because of the games themselves (which may be great), but because of the changes they've made to the games industry. I know I will get a PS4 and XOne in the future, but it's the first time in a long time that "new" consoles have not been able to sway me right of the bat.

Yes. You only need to think about it for a moment to understand why, and that there is actually a difference. But if you chose to willfully ignore what is obvious that is no concern of mine.

I complain a lot about games that i haven't played.

Usually my main complain would be that they release it already so i can play it.

I have and you're absolutely right. Hell, in some cases they're worse!

I like to play what other people are exaggerating about and then attack it
It keeps them in their place.

I try to play everything and even tend to do comparisons while I post just to be sure I know what I'm talking about.... but I am still guilty of jumping on hate bandwagons. Last time I did, it was for Knack. I guess my anti-Sony bias shines through sometimes.

Emo Dante. Castlevania Lord of the Rings. I tried them out in the future and loved the games.

Yes, paying for online on consoles.
