I add another.

I hate advertisers using the in game movies to sell GAMES rather showing the actual gameplay mechanics or graphics.

I agree with all the DLC comments

I strongly disagree with the tacked on multiplayer comments. I am all about the tacked on multiplayer. Obviously, carefully thought out multiplayer with tons of effort put into it is better, but that requires tons of effort and money. If a game was going to be single player, and then a couple of coders say "Hey, we've got half an hour for lunch... Fuck lunch, we could program versus multiplayer using only the weapons, maps etc from single player in the same time. Then what's the problem.

Metroid Prime 2 had tacked on multiplayer, and that's one of the two reasons it's the best Metroid of all time (the other reason was that the Ing, and dark Aether were both damn sweet!)



DLC content that should've been apart of the whole package. I seriously hate having to decide whether or not I should buy alternate costumes for $3.99 when I know it should already be pre-packaged in the game!!!



PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Guidelines to understanding my train of thought:

  • THE METAL GEAR SOLID FRANCHISE IS THE BEST THING TO HIT THE PLANET SINCE THE PS3!! THUS, MGS FRANCHISE >> SLICED-BREAD.
  • Solid Snake shall and well always shove 1up mushrooms up Mario's ass. 
  • Solid Snake shall and well always decimate Master Chief with a flurry of rocket launchers, shotgun rounds, and a 20 minute monologue.

Pushing a game out the door quickly with the established intent to just patch it later.

If I wanted that from the start I would just stick strictly to PC gaming.....:P

You pretty much already said the thing I was going to say:
DLC, expecially if it's overpriced

 

I agree. I'll never spend one dollar of my money on these ripoff.

 LOL. It took me a minute.

Well be careful she may start screaming at you.

Meanwhile...



I'm not a fan of "genre saturation" either. How many Wii Sports/ Brain Age/ Mario Party/ Wii Fit/ Guitar Hero rip offs do we need? As soon as somebody finds a formula that's unique and sells, 5 other companies make an inferior, "quickie" version of it.

Good observation. I kind of reminds me of when Disney made a animated movie of a classic fairy tale and then you'd see all these knock off versions made by unknown companies released by the same name.

But war... war never changes

Action based RPG's.

Give me some damn TURN based ones.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)
