gamrFeed's Jake Weston talks about the recent locking-out of Catwoman in Arkham City using the online pass and how it's the first step in truly locking out games for used and rental players.
GB: "With this feature, we take a look back at the incredible Batman: Arkham City with the aim of analyzing it from the perspective of a 2024 release."
Warner Bros. announced it's pivoting to live-service games, which could be a disastrous move for its devs
I don’t think there ever was a time for GaaS. Its entire resistance is revolved around making a game that generates recurring revenue constantly throughout its lifetime. It’s straight up a corporate scumbag design.
I watched the video seeing if anything changed since the initial Suicide gameplay vid before the delay and it looks the same. So weird watching all the characters just start a gun to their back and bounce super high shooting with no kick-back animation in an empty dead world. The voice acting is cringe and there doesn’t have any sense of atmosphere or immersion like the Arkham games.
And they expect you to pay $70 to $100 for this and then pay more for Battle Passes and items to make grinding less a chore. Yea, no thank you. I hope you learn a hard lesson with this one.
Today, during Warning Bros' conference call, chief executive officer David Zaslav talked about Mortal Kombat 1, Hogwarts Legacy, and the company's gaming business.
yea, because thats what people want, especially after those games sold millions and are not live service games haha.
so dumb haha.
New mk sold less then the last in the same time frame the NEW MK is legit a live service game with its horrible monopoly board. I just wanted a normal title...
You can no longer be assured that everything the marketers say is in the game is actually in the game (if you buy used). This will be the beginning of a bad trend for gamers.
If you buy the game new this shouldn't even be a problem to most people. Beside the developers/game companies don't benefit from you buying a used game, only the retailers that sells them do. Whats $10 for online pass anyway? Also just read in another article on N4g that GS is putting online pass codes in used copies of batman arkham city.
i haven't bought a used game in a bout 2 years and that was world of warcraft cause i lost my disk and didn't want to re download it,i know gamestop does not have used pc games im talking about amazon
What if I simply don't have access to high speed internet or psn/xbl?
just buy new, i don't get it. So you buy a game used and save what 5 bucks? cmon now. Or just wait like 2 weeks and the game will be down $10 and you can buy it new.
