Come on guys, it's not THAT bad. Yeah, it seems like it was aimed at some weird subculture who gets internet references but has never seen a video game before, but it was not that bad. I didn't cringe. In fact, I think I'd still want this game even if that was all I had seen of it.
I think Sony is stupid to quit supporting it. Even when they did support it, there was not one single "AAA" game that didn't have one or more tragic flaws. Every great game had huge issues. They never really tried. And there's no reason they can't revive the Vita. Most people don't even know what a Vita is! They could practically re-release it with heavy advertisement and people would actually think it was a new system. Sony is either lazy or just out of touch. Or both. Probably both.
If you haven't played Golden Abyss, you're not missing out at all. It was a decent game, but the only reason I'd recommend it is that it looks beautiful for a handheld game. And obviously that doesn't matter when you put it on the big screen.
They're not making big-budget games because of consumers' high expectations? Do they not realize that expectations are not only imaginary, but can be redefined? And that high expectations are good? As a consumer myself, that's the single most insulting excuse yet. So it's OUR fault? We have high expectations for you, Sony, so you're just not gonna try? Why don't you just quit your jobs then? Thanks, Sony. I no longer have high expectations for you. I am SO sorry I helped put that kind of pressure on you. Please, EXCUSE ME. I expect the worst from you now, with good reason. You've lost me. And I hope you're happy- no pressure though.
I wait a few days after a game's release before I buy it. That way I can go on YouTube and see how good or bad it really is. I want to know everything about a product before I buy it.
"Screencheating?" My friends and I always called it "screenjacking." I guess screencheating makes sense, but I think calling someone a "screenjacker" is more satisfying. I'd never heard of "screencheating" until I saw this game a while back.
I don't follow Batman because I don't like Batman, but can someone explain to me why he refuses to use traditional guns even though he's cool with firing rockets at villains and torturing them?
Long load times is why I don't play Battlefield. I mean I know the game isn't loading, but having to wait so long after you die to respawn is ridiculous. COD respawns are virtually instant, that's why I'll always like it better.
I don't ever let reviews get to me. When I want to buy anything, I do as much research as possible so I know exactly what I'm getting into. I hate spending my money. So when I want a game, unless I know it will be good before it comes out(like Pokemon or Mario), I look at the review here, then on IGN, then I watch IGNs video review(I know it's the same thing), and then I look at a few walkthroughs with and without commentary. I read both sites' reviews beginning to end. Then if it looks good, I find a way to buy it at the lowest price possible. If more people were responsible and did their homework, they would have no reason to get angry at reviewers.
And by the way, have you guys ever got negative feedback from game makers when you gave their game a bad review?? I've always wondered.
This is true. I mean I can't remember the last time that a game's control scheme took much time for me to learn. OlliOlli took me the longest to learn in recent memory, and that was only like three minutes to get used to. But when I try to get my older cousins to play, they press every button with their index fingers and move the analogue sticks with their index fingers and they can't even do two of anything at once, yet they can type 200 words per minute at work. Some people just don't get this stuff.
I personally couldn't care less what the framerate is as long as it's above 30 fps. Sure, 60 looks better, but 30 still looks great and I'd much rather have a high resolution game running smoothly at 30 fps than a buggy game that only ran 60 fps some of the time.
I love Lego games on home consoles, I never tire of those. What I AM sick of are the beyond-insultingly-awful portable adaptations. I can somewhat understand it if the 3DS version is scaled down- but the Vita version? Come on. That thing can run PS3-quality games. I mean look at Killzone or Uncharted. They're telling me that the Vita can't handle a dinky-ole Lego game? Lazy liars.
I'm glad they're taking Maps out. It was totally useless unless you had the 3G Vita. The YouTube discontinuation's a shame, but I only watch YouTube on my laptop anyway. My brother's gonna be very mad though; he stays up till like 2am every night watching videos on his Vita. So is near being removed completely or is it just gonna keep sitting there?
I never played the original games, so I bought this today. I love it! I'm no sexist but I find the misogyny and meat-head humor hilarious. My only issue with the game is that I was notified that my save file was corrupted somehow. I can still play, but there is one door that I am now unable to use. I open it, and instead of seeing beyond it, there is only blackness. If I walk into it, I bounce backward. It's not really a problem because there is a way around it, but I fear it may affect my game later on, and at the cost of my progress. The game also froze when I paused it and clicked 'exit game.'
Sorry no pic, but I got a white PS4 with Destiny, Far Cry 4, CoD Advanced Warfare, and Madden 15. FUNNY THING IS my SD TV is not compatible with the PS4's cable so it's just a useless white box until my dad reluctantly goes out to buy us an HD TV. Until then, at least I've got Resogun and my new skateboard to keep me company.
I'll be playing Resogun and Wipeout 2048 on my Vita. And I'll also be finishing A Link Between Worlds, Shovel Knight, and Pokemons Y and OR on my 3DS. Yeah, my break is 3 and a half weeks long...
Well my brain is fried now that finals are over but I'll still be hard at work building an underwater city in Minecraft on my Vita, and in between charges I'll be playing through SMB 3 on my GBA for the fiftieth time.
I wasn't able to download Mirrors Edge because the PS3's NA store was down even though the Vita's store was fine. I demand my free copy, Sony. You may not be making the games I want, but you had better not prevent me from getting games that are already out.
I'm not at all impressed with what they had for Vita. Don't get me wrong- I know those are good games- but they are "mostly ports" and we've already known for a long time that Shovel Knight is coming to Vita. I guess for me it was lack of any real surprises on the Vita. I feel like I have nothing to be excited about.
I'll be finishing up Pokemon Y and OR, as well as Lego Batman 3 Vita. I'll also be raising my high scores in Super Stardust Delta because a few of my PSN friends and I have a silent rivalry going on. I'm on top right now with 60 million in Arcade, 7 million in Planets, and 4 million in Endless.
