Walmart jumping heavily into the videogame marketplace can only be good for gamers.

More competition in the marketplace = more deals = better for my wallet.

randomwiz5108d ago

On the contrary, I hope it doesn't become "Gamestop gets this exclusive level, Walmart gets a different exclusive level, BestBuy gets exclusives skins"

BeaArthur5108d ago

Agreed, I hate that I miss out on some things just because I buy it from one place instead of the other. The best though is when they take that exclusive pre-order stuff and make it paid DLC at a later date...weak.

i love wall mart i got a 52 inch sony for 600 dollars because they mis priced the labels with the 40 inch sony

Shendow5108d ago (Edited 5108d ago )

I know not every Wal-Mart is like this, but the one here will just be dumb about it, I couldn't get a game because they didn't put on the sells floor or even try to find it.

Plus the people at are Wal-Mart are so dumb that a guy pulled off leaving the store with a HD TV 40inch and the only why Wal-Mart found this out is by the guy coming back and taking a 2nd TV.

Plus are store likes selling more things about two to three days before the sale date.

P.S. 60GB hard drive for 360 is on sale/clearance for only $98.98, yeah don't ask me were they got that price.

BX815108d ago

ROFL! I find it funny that you would call some one else dumb with all the errors in your comment!
"sells floor"
"the only why"
"me were they"

Shendow5108d ago

We all have are days that we are bad at typing, so deal with it a$$hole.

BX815108d ago

LOL! I love how upset you got over this! I just found it funny as hell that you were calling your local Wal-Mart dumb and you then proceed to leave that poorly written comment!

DaRazorback5108d ago

Yeah I have seen that some in some Wal-Marts are that way, but definitely not all.

xabmol5108d ago

What, did Walmart kill you family or something?

blodulv5108d ago

My family? No. But many small business owners & employees around the globe? Yes.

The high cost of low prices... watch it. Haven't set foot in a Wal-mart since.

To each his own though!

shadow27975108d ago

It does suck, but can you really be angry at Wal-mart for conducting smart business? Isn't that what a free market is all about?

TheIneffableBob5108d ago

GameCenter is the name of GameSpot's now defunct game service.

Excalibur5108d ago

As it creates lots of competition….

that said I'll just stick with Amazon. ;)

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7211d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii11d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast11d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM10d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife10d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit10d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife10d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

banger8823d ago

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

FPS_D3TH22d ago

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

PrecursorOrb22d ago (Edited 22d ago )

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

The_Hooligan22d ago

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

-Foxtrot32d ago

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

ocelot0731d ago

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

FPS_D3TH31d ago

I want the first two games to come to iPhone/android

Friendlygamer31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot

saint_seya30d ago
