Right now I really want to buy a vita, but I'll give you the same advice a buddy gave me. Wait till E3, there is almost guaranteed to be a price drop in both system price and memory price. And hopefully a card larger than 32gb available as a major selling point(to me at least) is having your...

Despite the advantages to preordering a game, I will rarely do so. Generally speaking if im preordering a game, it's because I support ______ franchise and assume its going to be a decent game at worst. Right now I'm looking at castlevania LOS2 as I'm in need of a decent hack and slasher.

This reminds me of "the secret world"'s promise of customization, that inevitably failed to live up to expectations because the premise was too ambitious. I'd like to see this type of game created, but unfortunately I've difficulty getting into a game if it's combat mechanisms aren't rock solid...

If you're fine with the understanding that buying deadspace may mean down the line more games take the micro transaction route whilst still maintaining their 60$ price tag, then keep the preorder. If you're not ok with this, return the preorder.

I'm kind of sick of posts like this, usually because they're either made by kotaku or ign. Let's be perfectly clear here, there are plenty of reasons to hate on DmC, aswell as reasons to love it. Someone expressing their opinion as to one or more of them is perfectly fine. Saying you loved it...

Fighting vergil on DMD mode on the later fights in DMC3. That shit was nuts.

No, the satisfaction came from a developer taking the time to put something utterly ridiculous into a game that had a pretty serious tone. Done for the sake of fun I might add. Mr Toots is a weapon I won't forget for a good while, I'd like to see more ridiculous weapons designed for either a...

I didn't really say that I enjoyed the game. It was a bad game, with a bad story and some interesting weapons. Enjoying oneself for a half an hour firing a laser from a unicorns anus doesn't mean I enjoyed the game itself. Just some cheap fun that partially redeemed itself, hence why I can't...

You can modify your save files. I couldn't stand certain parts of red faction so I replaced mine with someone who had the fortitude to finish it. I enjoyed the magnet gun and the unicorn anus-laser. Considering I got the game for like 10 bucks on a steam sale, I feel I got my moneys worth.

YOU WILL PLAY OUR GAME THE WAY WE DICTATE. Yahtzee talks a lot about the structure of shooters in his reviews, taking you from set piece to set piece and dictating how you go between each of them. I felt the same way playing DmC, like ninja theory had me by the ear and was pulling me along their...

For the f2p fps: Blacklight: Retribution or whatever patch it's on now. Amalaur is decent. Hitman absolution is designed for newer players Xcom will be quite a bit of fun after you're over the learning curve. Tera is meh. For all it's talk of an action based mmo, its skills are too stiff for...

Agreed that there aren't any developers in that same level of financial trouble as THQ. DmC did very poorly in japan, and capcom seems to be trying to appeal to a western audience. The problem of course is that they haven't been able to capture the western audience and by "westernizing" they...

I'd argue that nintendo would never have to worry about bankrupcy as they could always fall back out of the console market and sell zelda/mario/metroid titles multiplatform.

Capcom. RE6 was projected to sell 7.5m copies or somewhere around there. It sold around 5million which wasn't really a loss. The new DmC was originally predicted to sell 5m, then downscaled to 2million. It's sold about half of it's predecessor, moving about 450k copies in it's launch week. It...

I imagine Origin came to be by the same thought process as this. [video][video] Just without all the fun of hookers and blackjack.
