Re: Silent Hill Makes Its Long Awaited Comeback, And the Results Will Certainly Scare You

@ellsworth004 I have nothing against legalized gambling, heck I lived in Reno for a number of years, I was just commenting more on the writers comment of "Do you hope this slot machine makes its way to your local arcade some time in the future?". Since slot machines are not legal where I am at (only card rooms are legal) I won't be seeing these machines in an arcade or anywhere for that matter here. 😂

Re: Borderlands 3 - Looting and Shooting Is Back and Better Than Ever

@get2sammyb I am sorry Sammy. I didn't mean any disrespect. I guess I am just bitter at Gearbox and 2K games because of them I can't enjoy this game how it was meant. It kinda also ticks me off how people are making light of the the problems with co-op when that is what Borderlands is about. Then when people like me say anything about how broken the co-op we are called whiners, crybabies and overreacting or people just ignore it. It's obviously a big problem if so many people are talking about it and asking for change yet everyone doesn't think so, especially Gearbox and 2K games, but why would they when everyone gives them such high review marks.

Honestly I understand it's opinions reviews but I would given the game 5/10 due to the broken co-op. Now once they patched it and if they added vertical splitscreen then I would probably give it and 8 or so.

While I don't doubt the game is great for single players if you are like me and want to play this co-op wether online or couch then you should pass on BL3. Couch co-op is a mess with freezes and lag plus the lack of vertical splitscreen makes it darn well impossible to play. Online with all the freezes and lag is just a total mess.

It's clear that 2K and Gearbox wanted a single player game more then a co-op one which is a shame cause that's where this series shines as a co-op game.

This game went from one of my most anticipated titles of 2019 to my most disappointed title of 2019.

I will never buy another Gearbox game at launch again.

Re: Borderlands 3 Causes Uproar Amongst Longtime Fans with the Lack of Vertical Split-Screen Co-Op

I ended up returning my copy after finding out there was no verticle splitscreen as it was nearly impossible to play it as it is. I literally had to stand in front of my 55 inch TV just to see what was going on on my side of the screen. I know people say well just play it on single player, this is not why I bought it. Borderlands is one of the few games my son and I enjoy playing together.

My only hope now is if they don't patch in verticle splitscreen that they do cross platform as I do have a PS4 and an Xbox One. Only then will I purchase this game again so my son and I can play together.

Re: Talking Point: Is a PlayStation Game Pass Viable?

Tasuki

I actually enjoy the Gamepass from MS. For the price of two triple A games I get a.years worth of Gamepass. Plus if I don't like a game I am not out of $60 like Inwas with BL3. If Sony did a reasonable priced Gamepass I would definitely jump at it.

@LowTech And as I said if reviewer do give a bad review they get backlisted and as result they have to wait till launch day like everyone else to get a copy then a few days to get a review out by then thousands of people have the game already and don't care about a review.

With a website it's all about those articles hits and timing is the most importance. Sites, videos etc will almost always get higher number of visits/views of a review days before a game is released then they will after the release which is turn means more revenue and such for the site/video. I am sure Sammy can tell you how much views we lost by not having a BL3 review before the release.

These companies know this and that's why they backlist sites/content creators from review copies who give a bad review.

While I agree it's not right, there's nothing anyone can do about it. I will be honest if I knew there was no splitscreen in Borderlands 3 I wouldn't have bought it. As it is I took the game back a day after I bought it.

@LowTech 2K only gave review copies to sites that would give it a good review score. Many companies do this nowadays pretty much if a site or YouTube channel or whatever doesn't pretty much give a game a great score, review they company blacklists them from getting review copies. Either that or they put a review embargo stating that reviews can't come out till after the game is released.

Push Square never got a review copy for example.

Re: Telltale Games Is Coming Back Under New Management

Tasuki

I will reserve judgement till the games come out. Yeah they got the I.P. but does it mean the games will be Telltale quality or are there guys looking to just cash in on Telltales popularity?

Don't get me wrong I hope they deliver the games we want but I have been down this road to many times.
