A fair point, however it's worth noting that, as evidenced by the available pre-order figures up to the 180 after that year's E3, the Xbone was trailing Microsoft's lowest point projections - well behind both the Xbox 360 and the original Xbox. Microsoft abandoned ship when gamers around the...

Well, people working together to not support the Xbox One, and the combined might of the sheer endless negative PR that was generated by those efforts, forced Microsoft to abandon virtually all of the Xbox One's original design vision. So... yeah, they sometimes do.

Well, as others have already mentioned, Wings of Liberty and Heart of the Swarm were met with middling reactions. Blizzard burned down their reputation as one of the best in the industry with Wings of Liberty and Diablo III, so Legacy of Void being all but forgotten isn't really that surprising...

Actually software sold on discs is licensed, which is why reverse engineering the game to retrieve its source code is still illegal. The issue with the licenses actually comes from the difference between printed and digital software, in terms of their production. With printed software, like...

The problem for the Xbone comes with answering a simple question: Why should I buy an Xbone instead of the PS4? And in answering the question, we see why no one wants an Xbone. Both next-gen consoles are the same price right now, so it ultimately comes down to console features and content...

Grab a PS4. It's cheaper, better value, has the best versions of all multi-platform titles by a decent margin, and your not giving Microsoft any money. $1,500.00 won't get you a PC that can ride out the generation, not when gen 1 titles like Watch_Dogs are pushing 8GB ram requirements, or...

It'll be the "Xbone" till judgement day. It will not be forgotten. I haven't noticed too many people referring to it as anything other than "Xbox", frankly. Microsoft are clearly doing their best to get rid of as much negativity as possible - and a lot of that comes down to the name. They...

Being as the thread title can't even get the title of the game correct, I knew this thread was going to be a treat! You can't just say that it's not an argument, and move on, without actually explaining why it's not an argument. Pricing the different early access versions the same everywhere...

Oculus had over US$100m in private capital funding, which was more than enough to bring the consumer model to market. Today was about Oculus getting paid. As a publicly traded company, Facebook has a legal obligation to run their business for the benefit of their shareholders. This means they...

If SE ever truly faced the risk of closure, they'd play their trump card: a full remake of Final Fantasy VII. SE has admitted they don't want to remake it until they surpass it, but with Toriyama's terrible XIII "saga" almost single handedly ruining the series mainstream reputation, and SE's...

Not too much more to add that you can't get elsewhere. Timesplitters Future Perfect is pretty incredible, though it is also available on PS2. The GTAIII and Vice City ports are still the best versions of either game, too.

I feel your pain there, brother. As for buying games, I lost all faith a long time ago. Companies like EA Games and Activision burned me time and again, and now the industry at large pays the price. SPORE was the last straw for me personally. Nothing has ever left me feeling so utterly...

I already have a PS4, so please take my opinion with a grain of salt, however this wouldn't have done much to change my mind if I were on the fence. As a multiplayer only title, it requires that I purchase an on-going Xbox Live Gold subscription in order to actually use it. That's not an...

This. From the day of its reveal, it was called the Xbone. "Xbox One" is one of the worst console names to ever come along, and feels utterly disconnected from today's market. It simply doesn't feel natural to say it. Xbone, however, is a natural contraction of "Xbox One". It's easy to...

Call of Duty is a series of interchangeable sub-six hour long man-shoots, each resulting in little more than an exercise in hyper-masculine chest beating. Some entries can be distilled down to being little more than pro-American propaganda. The game is designed to remove failure and require...
