Forums - Gaming - So why is everyone so anal about games?

meh ok i will bring up lair. I played it before the patch and i seriously had no control issues at all with the dragons. Took me awhile to figure out hot to do a 180 turn and how to slow down but once that was done it was smooth for me.

Frame rate issues piss me off. If your game couldn't handle the visuals, tone it down. I prefer the visuals of some Wii games over HD games because of BS frame rate issues.

Loading time pisses me off. I don't have all day, seriously - I want to get as much gaming in the short time I have. Again - tone down the damn graphics if it means I'll be waiting all the time. For this reason, I prefer a game like DQ4 over FF4 (DS remake). I don't like waiting.

When did gamers become so anal about there games?

I know the two issues I listed above were never a problem for me, until the PS1 arrived. Hell, I didn't even get a PS1, but I did pick up the PS2, and these problems bothered me. That's when I started bitching.



Video games is serious business.



Personally I've bitched a lot due to other people trolling, saying stupid things, or flat out lying about games... but when I started getting ganged up on by trolls and then noticed my post count per day increased but was due to replying to trolls doing what they do best... I'm done with it, not worth losing my cool, which is usually the way I work but I try to contribute to more then just articles on the site I try to spread a little truth, with a few differing opinions here and there when need be, but when you get ganged by trolls you realize it's not worth the reply and easier to just hit the report button :P

Well, unless a game keeps freezing is playalbe alrigth. I'm currently playing Fallout 3 and I say What a glitchy game, but fun nonetheless.

I have played it on the PS3 and in some of the Boat stages and outdoor areas the frame rate became a bit of a joke. It wasnt quite slideshow but it was poor enough that we had to slow the boat down as otherwise you just lost control.

Still all the indoor bits were fine and I had little or no problem here.



I remember a guy bragging about MGS4's uncompressed audio and how much better it sounded because of the power of Blu-ray. I thought to myself ,"Dude, you are so full of shit". I didn't respond, though. Why waste my time? I just wonder how these pixel counters survived the earlier generations. It must've been torture.



Orange Box PS3 isn't unplayable, but almost every review mentions those framerate issues, so they're undeniable there.

bit off topic:
I have my PS3 only 10 days, but it's easily on the way to surpass my 360 with freezing problems
Already happened 3 or 4 times.



I think it doesnt just fit into gaming i think people just expect thins to be perfect if they are paying for it.

Some fanboys like to use the most minor differences they can find and use them to show a negative image of a console.

 

It was in the press that the porting of Orange Box was a disaster on the PS3... it isn't fanboy input..;



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.
