You have some real problems dude...you need help.  You missed the point I was trying to make, and you're evidently not interested in understanding what I was trying to say, so I'm confused as to why YOU are still posting in a topic that this "pussy" started?  What I'm amazed at is how you have not been banned...go take some vallium or whatever you need to calm yourself, and try to grow up a bit...we are talking about video games...it's not like...life or death. 

 

Wrong again. Jesus Christ, you are slow.

The point you were trying to make (which I commented on already) is completely irrelevant to why I'm picking you apart. It's your statements leading up to your "point" that I'm talking about, if you had the ability to read, you would have realized it already. My topic has always remained on video games until you started bringing up stuff about "nobel prizes" and "putting people into check". Honestly? me banned? Need help? Need to grow up? Those are typical words from idiots that have nothing else to say regarding the ACTUAL topic.

 

Go back and read your OP again if you don't think there's anything wrong with you. I already pointed out that you're either a fraud or have no clue at all. By all means, quote it if you have to and if you don't, I'll do it.

Anyday of the week, I'd compare my RL stats to yours buddy..anyday.  Like I said, you're still the one hanging out in the topic I created.

LOL. What? "RL" as in real life, no? Damn, you must feel pretty shitty about this confrontation if you feel the need to bring up your status outside of a forum to make yourself feel any better. But sure, if you feel the need to tell everyone aboutyour life, go ahead. I find it funny that my arguments toward your initial claims in your OP has hurt you so bad that you feel the need raise self esteem OUTSIDE of the topic (which you claimed, you've always been on ). In all my arguments, I have NEVER got into someone's mind and backed them in a corner as much as I have to you, because of that, I think I'm really going to pat myself on the back for this one. Maybe you should hand me over that Nobel peace prize you've been talking about all along eh?

Also, Hanging on the topic? as in hanging on the point that you haven't admited how stupid your OP post was? then yes, I am still hanging. And will continue until you retire.

BTW: you have ignored my point again, nice job. You ran out of things to say regarding your topic days ago.

 



What points, you've made no points. I've look over your original post, and they make no sense...deal with it. YOU MISSED MY POINTS, and NEVER BOTHERED TO THINK IT THRU. Move on, these are not the droids you're looking for...

Feel pretty shitty...no I don't, I'm jsut disgusted that the mods have allowed you to hijack the topic I started to discuss the interview I read in Game Informer...you evidently have some hard on for me, but I can assure you, I have zero worries about my personal self-esteem...Your original points are off the mark from what I was saying...deal with and move on little one.

For the record, here are my first 2 responses to your post:
“Evidently, you failed to read my OP, but it's typical of what goes on with posters on these boards. I offered my opinion on a story I read, and I never claimed to be a journalist, who is supposed to simply report, "just the facts".
To respond to YOUR opinions of my post, I DID have someone post that Insomniac was owned by sony, and maybe they mis-spoked, and meant the IP. I also clearly stated I wasn't sure who owned the Resistance IP, and never alluded to it NOT being owned by Sony, since I wasn't sure, so I'm not sure how I was wrong.
Secondly, CoD is multiplatform, so from a risk perspective, the publisher and developer hedged their bets, and diversified their risk on the success or failure of the final project. In doing so, they also assumed that developmental cost to develop the game would be balanced out by sales on their respective platforms, which might not have been the cash on something like BioShock's not as successful port of that game to ps3. In 3rd party exclusives, the developer and publisher are increasing their risk and decreasing their earning potential, based on whatever rule set that is being used. Given that Resistance sold 3.2+ million, you would think a highly touted sequel would be a shoo-in, but I guess you can blame sony’s poor marketing effort…maybe they spent all their bullets on pushing lbp, and not enough on R2…whatever the case might have been, I’d be VERY concern if I was in Price position, and I’m seeing the trashing my top rated game is getting at the hands of CoD, and comparatively at GeOW2.
LOL...Right bub, no more arguments from me, as you've REALLY prove how thoughtless some of my points in my post was....back to the REAL DISCUSSION points...
Is it possible that Insomniac could bolt the exclusive camp this generation, based on the success that 3rd party titles seem to receive on the 360. Having a developer so skilled at programming on the PS3 might provide a different set of eyes on how things can be done to continue to push the boundaries of the 360. I'm somewhat excited about the potential, and it's really a testament to how M$ has done an excellent job at pushing the 360 to developers.”

No personal insults or remarks about your intelligence or competence. You might want to check out your response. You are a frigging child dude, and you need to get a grip. You are the one who started insulting me over an article I read and posted my opinion on. You could have easily walked away from the topic, but you stuck around and kept insulting me, and interestingly, considering the stuff I’ve gotten banned for, I’m stunned you’ve evidently not even received a warning, but I’ve kept my cool, and so just keep showing your childish colors.

haha, "missing the point?" "never bothered to think it through"? I assume you're talking about your own post, I'll show you exactly why your "points" got slammed so hard. (below)

Feel pretty shitty...no I don't, I'm jsut disgusted that the mods have allowed you to hijack the topic I started to discuss the interview I read in Game Informer...you evidently have some hard on for me, but I can assure you, I have zero worries about my personal self-esteem...Your original points are off the mark from what I was saying...deal with and move on little one.

Funny. You think I should be banned for calling you out and arguing against your claims (about the topic at hand)? You need to look yourself in the mirror and find out why you even considered bringing up "RL stats" before you try to convince anyone that your self esteem is still intact. Instead of telling others to move on, maybe you should be the one that should retire from this topic all together after your failed attempts in backing up your claims.

For the record, here are my first 2 responses to your post:

For the record, I'll post my responses, in bold:


“Evidently, you failed to read my OP, but it's typical of what goes on with posters on these boards. I offered my opinion on a story I read, and I never claimed to be a journalist, who is supposed to simply report, "just the facts".

so because you don't know the facts... you go ahead and make dumb statements about topics you have no clue about? Opinions become wrong when people use false facts as a base. I never said you were some sort of journalist (no shit), I just said that your statements are false. Which you'll see down below.


To respond to YOUR opinions of my post, I DID have someone post that Insomniac was owned by sony, and maybe they mis-spoked, and meant the IP. I also clearly stated I wasn't sure who owned the Resistance IP, and never alluded to it NOT being owned by Sony, since I wasn't sure, so I'm not sure how I was wrong.

So because you had someONE post that Insomiac was owned by Sony, You claim that you've heard it from MANY posters. Again, you're lying out of your ass (reference to being a fraud). Also, I don't see how someone can just blabber on about a topic that he/she has no knowledge of, as you admitted. Let me make it simple:

Someone having no knowledge of an issue + Someone trying to make theories about it = Someone being wrong.

Secondly, CoD is multiplatform, so from a risk perspective, the publisher and developer hedged their bets, and diversified their risk on the success or failure of the final project.

Nothing you've said has anything to do with why you claimed COD:waw was NOT direct competetion to R2, and why Gears2 was.

 

  • R2 was a game made mainly targeted to PS3 owners in mind. COD:waw was a game made to target almost every platform. Gears2 was made to target Xbox360 owners.
  • COD:waw is on the PS3. R2 is on the PS3. Gears2 is on the Xbox360.
  • R2 and COD:waw are both FPS games, Gears2 is a TPS.
  • R2 and COD:waw were released within the same week (correct me if I'm wrong).

 

With that being said, anyone with half a brain would know that COD:waw directly influenced R2 sales, with a arguable likelyhood of Gears2 being the indirect factor.

LOL...Right bub, no more arguments from me, as you've REALLY prove how thoughtless some of my points in my post was....back to the REAL DISCUSSION points...

Yet you continued to argue.

Never had any problems with these comments.

No personal insults or remarks about your intelligence or competence. You might want to check out your response. You are a frigging child dude, and you need to get a grip. You are the one who started insulting me over an article I read and posted my opinion on.

First off, the only reasons my "insults" were in place at all was in an attempt to make you answer for your initial claims (which you ignored), but you used sarcasm to try and flee without answering. Secondly, throughout the posts, you often made comments about how "I was confused", yet you've made little or no attempt to even clear things up. If you took my words personally (which it's apparent that you did), then I feel sorry for you, not in a pitiful way, but rather in a sympathetic way. You were the one feeling threatened by my posts, you were the one losing a grip, all I did was force the issue. In retrospect, I would have gladly walked away, but you wouldn't stop resisting, which led me to torture you. It wasn't my choice, it was yours.

To address your "point"...

On the surface, sure R2 is in direct competition with COD:WaW, since they are both title released in close proximity, and are in the same shooter category, but in the context of my post, My point was that they were NOT in the direct competition, as they were indirect competition. And to help you further understand, the context was that of double/triple A exclusives. Halo 3 is a first person, but people are comparing it to Gears as the flagship shooter for the 360, so I guess that wrong as well? I didn’t spell it out for you completely, and I forgot to account for some people being slower than other.

Sony has nearly lost all of its exclusive 3rd party support this generation, and the continual weakness exhibited by multiple exclusive titles to date on the console is probably not providing the warm and fuzzy to publisher to go exclusive for sony. M$ has been far better at achieving success with timed-exclusives, or exclusive DLCs from publisher to justify why they should support this policy for future titles. Someone posted that the cost for a publishing on both platform add an addition 10% increase on IP development, once proficiency is achieved and proficiencies are implemented. So based on that data point, I would think that most developers are going to take a long and hard look at whether they wish to go exclusive.

I provided my opinions on the quoted comments of Ted Price, and what that would mean. You were the one who went off the deep end with your personal attack, and once again, I’ll look to the moderation team of this site for some level of consistency as to what exactly is the line to be crossed, since at this current junction, it certainly doesn’t seem like it is consistent on what can be said.

LOL. so let me get this straight. You think that because Gears2 was AAA shooter, exclusively on the 360 and a third person shooter, it would be in DIRECT competition of Resistance 2? Why don't you make a post asking everyone here to see what they think about that. I seriously think you need to go back to school and learn the meaning of "direct" and "indirect". All logic goes against your reasoning and because of that, you've insulted your own intelligence.

As far as your Halo example goes. Yes, it's fair to COMPARE Halo with Gears, but think about it... they are on the same system. No one ever said Gears2 and R2 was not COMPARIBLE, the fact of the matter was whether that they affected each other indirectly or directly. It's not hard to grasp.

Sony has nearly lost all of its exclusive 3rd party support this generation, and the continual weakness exhibited by multiple exclusive titles to date on the console is probably not providing the warm and fuzzy to publisher to go exclusive for sony.

Again, you're repeating yourself and I have no disagreement with that point.

I provided my opinions on the quoted comments of Ted Price, and what that would mean.

Your first "opinion" was hardly one. It was just flawed logic, as you used stupidity to create a claim. As far as you complaining about the mods, why don't you seek my posts again to point out where I've "crossed the line". I can only give you a face palm because as of right now, you sound like a child whining over spilled milk.

 

 



You're a fool, clown...simply and plain, so go back and learn what in context means. Anybody who jumps to profanity and anger because somebody chares a different opinion is an idiot, and that pretty much sounds like you in this context. Get a life, and a clue, and learn to read.

Hmm. Me angry? looks to me like you're the one that's pissed. Perhaps because you no longer have an excuse? You keeping talking in "context", yet it still doesn't make any sense, nor does it dismiss the fact that you were incorrect. Sorry man, you're just wrong on this one, deal with it. Next time, think before you create a half-witted OP, otherwise someone may have to embarrass you again.

This is what you sound like: "but but but I actually meant...  that in context of AAA/AA titles R2 was in NOT in DIRECT competition with COD:WAW... duuhhhh, this is because HALO3 is a AAA titles and so is Gears of WAR!..... stop making fun of meee!"

God speed.

BTW: Profanity? lol.



The 360 users would get a major treat should Insomniac decide to go multiplat.
