Yea agreed. Its a perfext example of a marriage of gameplay of narrative, there isnt a dissonance . im getting gta day one as I know what to expect but I still laugh at the gta4 review and especially"Oscar worthy story".

For the record though, don't think this is Nintendo retreating from 3D. I'm pretty sure the 3DS always having the 3D be software-controllable was so if they wanted to have 3DS games on future handhelds or consoles, they could still be rendered properly (unlike the Virtual Boy)
I mean I know what they're going for with this
but it's seriously so out of left field we're not even playing baseball anymore
it literally is the samoflam of game consoles

This. Saturated to the point of absurdity
And no store is going to stock all of them.

I thought the DSi's were discontinued? At least I haven't seen one in months in any store.

i can't wait for some motherfucker to talk about how GTA4's driving was better, how it had weight and a sense of meaning and gave them insight on the inner workings of the universe.

Considering that there are people who still think the 3DS is just a regular DS with 3D, this this will confuse the shit out of people.
I get what Nintendo is trying to do but that thing is ugly! Even cheap gamers/casuals want something that is nice to look at.
Smmfh @ wonderful 101. Bayonnetta 2 will be lucky to sell 10k.
It really feels like a discard idea Iwata found under his desk and decided to make it.
Nah. Way too much "Citizen Cane of gaming" and people bringing up TLoU in threads it's barely tangentially related for it to escape the cycle unscathed. It'll be in the crosshairs come Nov.

"2DS."

I uh...hmm...
Nintendo about to get DAT POKEMONEY one way or another
yeah, it's a bunch of additional cost, work and testing. plus this is NINTENDO we're talkng about, they swapped MP3 playback in the Wii for AAC to save 49 cents a unit.

The hinges are the first thing to break when you give the DS to kids. I think this whole thing is marketed towards them, the audience thats growing up on handheld games being angry birds and $0.99 games. Give them a similar tablet device, drop the price, release it the same day as Pokemon...
I see where they're going for, but goddamn it's ugly

Easily. As ugly as that thing is, launching with pokemon is easy money.
free/$0.99 to play Pokemon. You get to choose a starter and are given five Pokeballs in the beginning. Trainers still give out money and you can sell items to the Poke Mart but the compensations is dramatically reduced in order to promote buying Pokedollars with real world money. Poke Center now is no longer a free service. The game is functionally a no items/nuzlocke run if you choose to not pay a dime.
The horrible future.
I just threw up in my mouth a bit.
No no no no no.

I don't think TLOU will get hit like GTA4 or BioShock Infinite. GTA4's story was bleh and the city was kind of charmless. BI mechanics were awful since day one. It's easy to nitpick at both of those. But TLOU has solid gameplay and a story that is a tier above most games.
And I never wavered on MGS4, despite its flaws it's still one of my favorites of this generation.

I will never understand the love for Sleeping Dogs. Outside the combat system(which is good for a sandbox game that's not Arkham City), it's just a completely run-of-the-mill post-GTA sandbox game. A decent, competent, 7/10 game, and not much more than that
That and Binary Domain, did not see why those got put on a pedestal as some hidden gems of last year.

I'm currently playing through SD now. Only SR3 really stands out as a better open world game to me.

damn, i thought it was something newer than that. still love the end to that post!
something tells me if that digital resale thing is true, then the rumor that ms will slowly bring back all the things they 180'd is probably gonna be true as well. That seems way too generous/good to be true for any business to be doing that let alone MS.

The soundtrack is on point. Just riding around with that one J. Dilla song when it's raining is pretty relaxing.

TLoU was good. The only backlash will be from haters who hated on the game. They'll just be louder. B:I combat is what killed it. That and in retrospect it was just run of the mill. If it would have kept that original BioShock combat though.....
To be honest everything gets over hyped lately. Its to the point that if you like games you are gonna get hit in the face with some bullshit a lot more than it used to be. You can now downright lie about something and its okay it can be overlooked. I'm to the point where I say fuck reviews, fuck the bitching just fuck it. If I'm gonna spend my hard earned loot on something I'm gonna watch how the game plays(ala let's plays) and ask personal friends and BCT. So far the only folks in this industry who haven't steered me astray.
