| epinefridis said: @windbane Just in a few occasions. There are parts in LC that I wouldnt even imagine that existed. I understand someone not to be excited about that, but, since i personally loved GTAIV, I am. I don't know what you mean with the term "reportedly" Cause I reportedly tell you that I'm in LatD for over 12 hours (single player) and on the other hand i have watched a complete KZ2 walkthrough which lasted 5:34 (with the cutscenes). I'm not talking about the multi of course. |
Ah, well I'm glad I won't be missing any more story for the main game. I won't be able to borrow my friend's 360 to play it since he sold it. I'm playing Fable 2 again soon, though...
As for KZ2, most are saying 10 hours and I heard 10 hours for the expansion. Obviously, it's easier to get sidetracked in an open world. I don't really care how long the single player is because I don't even know when I'll be playing it.
| windbane said: They reportedly have the same length (10 hours). Tell me, does the expansion have links to the original story line? |
Some. The island is completely open in this one, has new weapons, bikes, cars and the like. Even though it's still Liberty City, the feel is way different and feels like a new game. Read the reviews - it's an awesome piece of work.
Of course, KZ2 campaign may become longer in highest difficulty settings (god, I don't wanna count the hours I consumed in the "5 hours long" CoD4 in Veteran mode...)

Well help me out. With the PS3 YoY down, and sales continuing to decline for the PS3, what evidence makes you think folks will see the light, quit buying 360s and turn to PS3s? I could see if could capture non-and-casual gamers like the Wii. That's the only way it would catch the 360 by next year. I still remember seeing folks claim the PS3 would be ahead of the 360 by this time in 2009. Realistic expectations is saying 'The 360 will slow in sales, and will likely have its lead sometime this year cut to 6 million.' However, even then, MS will just thinly slice the price again and erase Sony's gains.

Ok, I'll help you out: you can always find "some" that will say outrageous things but that does not represent "most" of PS3 owners. I don't really care if the PS3 ever catches the 360 because it's close enough already that the PS3 is getting most of the 3rd party games. Of course, I'd also appreciate it if Microsoft would stop paying for expansions, but whatever, there's enough to play on PS3.

Yup, based on predicted sales of Star ocean 4 its gonna sell incredibly well in a market where the 360 used to do badly, but is now selling far better than most people ever expected
As far as I am informed, SO4 has the potential to be a great hitter in US market too. Bigger than LO.

I'll be honest - I read most posts, even from folks I think have hidden agendas, to give folks the benefit of the doubt. Based on the threads and E3 vid, I wasn't sure what to expect. I went into the demo with an open mind, just like I do every game. And thought it was good, just not as great as folks had talked it up as. Everyone has an opinion - and I know you are a reasonable poster. You try to see things from the other side before going in with both guns blazing (even though you didn't read all of my post). However, most folks have an idea in their mind and tune out everything else. They'd miss a lot of info doing that. As far as attacks, 360 bots aren't mad at the games or even the console but the annoying hype. Were you on the site when folks were talking about 'Sony domination starts ...' phrase? When it didn't happen, they'd reset it and start it again. I know I lol'd when folks would say it. After a while, 360 bots ran with it. It was major funny. Sure, you have folks who didn't own a PS2, can't afford it, but it doesn't make sense to bash something you want and can't have - just yet. I want a Porsche Carerra GT. I want a Ferrari F50. I want a Maybach. And have a huge crush on Halle Berry, Angelina Jolie and Sarah Palin - but I won't bash them unless they are messin' up. A lot of folks have realistic expectations about the PS3. Most PS3 owners don't. They have said on this site they bought the console for 1 game and were disappointed. Some say they bought it for the flood of JRPGs and RPGs that haven't showed up. Someone earlier said PS3 types have thin skin. I agree. I could care less about someone talking about my consoles, talking bad about my Jeep Commander or the like - shoot, even call me a joke of a journalist. I could care less because I know the truth and their words don't affect me, or don't affect me for long.

Frankly, I do like listening to people's opinions. Thats why I use sites like this. Howver, I dislike arguments that have no merit liken a thread came up about how people were disappointed in R2 and Zenfoldorvgi posted that the game sucked. Even though I agreed with him as I said it wasn't all that myself, I had to chastise his post because he never played the game in his life to form an opinion. I'd respect your opinion on the kz2 demo even though I don't think demo's are always an accurate representation of the full game. Why? You played it.
I'm yet to get a good explanation as to why hype is annoying especially when you can choose to skip the threads? Kind of like what I did to your post when I first read it. Especially when a game is on a console you don't have and don't plan to ever buy, why would you be looking into the threads in the first place? If you don't browse those threads, there won't be any need to get angry, it's not rocket science.
As for the ps2 owners history, you may want to look into zenfoldorvgi history. He's one of the popular posters on this site and the perfect posterchild for ps2 owners who hate the ps3 because they think it's too expensive. I think he even posted that he thinks the ps3 will still come second at the end of the gen when all is ironed out which I as a ps fan don't even think. Yes, there are many people who hate what they can't have. Just watch some of those crime shows, many people have killed their girlfriends/wives for leaving them.
If you ask me, the so called ps3 owners who have unrealistic expectations about it are mostly the same one who think owning it give them the right to post pointless gibberish about it. Using the term "most" is pretty heavy especially when you have no IDs to back it up. Lastly, hyping something =/= having unrealistic expectations. like I said, it's in your mind.
As for the thin skin comment. Well, some people have thin skins. These people range from ps3 owners to wii owners to non gamers. I do defend the ps3 a lot on this site, it's not because I'm dying over internet posts because anonymous internet posters are the least of my worries; I just argue against BS when I'm bored and don't currently feel like having bouts of SFIV with my cousin.

The only thing this thread proves is that all fanboys are as bad as each other. It's easy to look at the faults of others rather than your own.
