Someone's a little touchy. I was literally asking, as I don't remember hearing much about it. Nor do I ever claim it is a "flop."
Grow up.
I'm not blaming the gun. I'm blaming the ease of access that the kid had to it. Of course its his own damn fault and he has issues, but its just as much his father's fault for putting a game in a lockbox with a gun. A lockbox? Really?
Can't wait to hear the excuses in this thread. I expect the typical differing.
JUST ONCE I WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO BLAME THE DAMN ABILITY FOR THE KID TO GET A DAMN GUN.
The question is, are the BULK of Wii owners going to WANT third party titles that are designed for the "more hardcore?" Would a title like Mirror's Edge sell to Nintendo's fanbase? Didn't No More Heroes end up doing pretty poorly? You have to look at who your market is, as well as sales. Sure, hardcore gamers exist on the Wii as well, but where is the bulk of their audience?
Yes, sales are important, and yes, history shows that Nintendo's titles destroy the competition'...
Congrats. Too bad G4tv sucks. A lot.
CViper, you and I both know that KZ2 will be bashed and nitpicked, nonstop, by the media fanboys for issues that are entirely present and acceptable/overlooked in other big name titles like Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, and Gears of War 2.
Which is unfortunate to say the least.
Yeah, its unfortunate reviews DIDN'T mention ANY of the balance or connection issues.
I think the problem is, especially in today's media, the FUN has gone all out of it, and its become nothing but SPITE and manipulation. The media are bigger fanboys than the fanboys they create!
It's unfortunate that people still fall for the ploys of these websites. Sure, there are respectable people out there, but anyone who thinks a website DOESN'T have an agenda is just a plain fool.
It's a pity too with Kotaku. They OOZE bias, and yet I love their review SYSTEM, even if I don't always agree with their reviews.
See, THIS is news. THIS is something we should be discussing. But instead the next "PS3 is doomed" article will get the most hits, and this one will fade away.
I agree with him, its no secret "game journalism" is a fvcking joke.
Anyone else find it majorly telling of how 1up works when they have had about 3 articles in the past week harping prominently how the teaser could/should be for MGS4 on the 360, which is a follow up of many of their past "MGS4 on 360" stories over the year...
... then Ray Barnholt in his editor's blog on the very same site states "Anyone who strongly thought the teaser had anything to do with Xbox 360 was really setting themselves up for disappointment (really).&q...
I await the "BD is failing" articles next week, due to drop in sales, because The Dark Knight came out LAST week.
*sigh*
Awesome games, but I already have L4D and Mass Effect... and no 360. Rumor has it Fable 2 and Gears 2 are next. Still, having them on a console would be nice, but I didn't buy this 26" monitor for nothin!
That's depth of field, not motion blur. It's uses are two-fold.
1) Artistic design.
2) Covering up any LOD issues in the background.
See: Gears of War 1 and 2 for good uses of it.
Because these new age "gamers," and I use the term loosely, are too stupid and remedial to discuss their views and issues in an adult and sophisticated manner. It then devolves into "zomg ur systum sux lulz!!@!"
Of course, being cattle and listening to everything that the media or reviews tell them to adds to the situation.
Pity intelligent gamers out there have to deal with these people, who hide safely behind their computer screens inside their...
Does anyone know what Dark Cloud, Dark Cloud 2, Dragon Quest VII or VIII, and Rogue Galaxy got from Famitsu? Or maybe Persona 3 FES, or SMT3 Nocturne?
Curiousity!
I'd like some Trophies and an option to Install All for nice fast replayability.
My money (and sources, woo) are on an iPod/iPhone game. Until then, dance silly hypocrites dance! Who cares about MGS4, M I rite? Iz juz a moovie! Also, leave it to 1up to INSTANTLY go the route of "zomg for 360!"
The focus on Co-Op, even in single player, really hurts this game for me. I despise AI partners.
I would LOVE to see a Black 2. I was hoping that Battlefield BC would be the spiritual successor, but I was heavily disappointed by that game.
Good luck to Criterion if true! Cant' wait!
