1UP: Demigod Review Postponed on Account of Game Don't Work

1UP writes:
"I'm not reviewing Demigod. Well, not today, anyway. At the moment the only reliable way of playing is in a single player match against bots, which is more of a tease than anything. Evaluating it on that basis wouldn't be doing it much justice. Still, I think people should have a heads up before they buy the game. At the time of this writing Demigod is, in a word: busted."

You know that article a few days ago asking which had the most buggy software, the PS3 or the 360?
The answer is: Niether. It's the PC that has the buggiest software.

Why don't you read the article before you comment, or are you just trolling? This has nothing to do with buggy software. Stardock's servers are being overloaded by the number of users trying to play the game therefore preventing users from playing multiplayer.

Apparently you didn't get the joke.

Problem is they have an absolute ton of Warez players playing the game due to their stand on no DRM. Alot of these players are likely trying the game out before buying due to a lack of demo but it sucks that they hurt users who have actually bought it.

I plan to get it pretty soon, looks really interesting. Annoyingly it isn't out in the UK til the end of May so I'll have to get it digitally which is pretty expensive in comparison but worth it to get it early.

@ kushan nice try to save yourself there but no one believes you.(And if you really were meaning it as a joke ,then its not very good.)

on topic : It's sad that pirates will propably help in giving the game bad scores, do to reviewers saying online is buggy couldn't get into a games multiplayer etc... I personally think itll be fun like dota.

I wonder if we're over the hump now or if this is the next Call of Duty.

darkronin2293526d ago

I still haven't found a MOBA I can get into. Did LoL for awhile, but it was such a slow grind in terms of ranking up and getting money. DOTA 2 just scares me. Infinite Crisis was alright, but I lost interest in it pretty quickly.

Chaoticmoon3526d ago

Why does Dota 2 scare you? Just wondering because imo its a fairly accessible game especially if you get some friends together to play with you. Also if you are just scared of sucking dont be, just have fun and ignore those who flame because if they are flaming then they probably suck too and are just trying to blame you for any of their mistakes. So just download it AND HAVE FUN!

M3rkMast3r3526d ago

Great article it is nice that someone documented the history of MOBA's.

midnightambler3526d ago

Interesting stuff, especially for a noob like me.

qwerty6763526d ago (Edited 3526d ago )

"From mod to sensation" to over-saturation.

i dont like how all these companys are now trying to make mobas, the markets already been taken by lol and dota.

they should come up with something new instead of just copying.
