PS4 Revealed

[the dark side]

yes, they do suck. any game that is buggy is unfit for release, it is as simple as that. when i pay money, i expect what i have purchased to work correctly, if it does not, I DEMAND my money back, same as when my PS3 packed up after 12 months, i could have it it replaced, but no, i had my money back instead, because i didn't get what i had paid for. a RELIABLE WELL MADE PRODUCT, wich my PS3 wasn't, and thus, in my opinion, was not fit for sale to me. ok, i was biased a bit by only having one, not very good, game on it, but still, when i have a NES that still works as good as day one after 20 years, for a new system to die in one year, despite being used very rarely, is just unacceptably shoddy workmanship in that one unit.

also, all those Developers are bankrupt, doubtless because of there own ineptitude.

it isnt being restricted, its lazyness, most of the original founding fathers of many development studios, angered at all the time restraints and creative restrictions foisted on them by the megacorps have walked out to form, new, indipendant companies, those who have stayed on are just lazy/incompetant sods who know that they canot make a good game to save there bloody lives and know they can use things like "creative restrictions" to disquise there own shortcomings, Titus software being a Perfect example of this. It wasnt DC restrictions that crippled them, they didnt help matters no, but the core issue was a lazy, incompetant development team.

or. look at gearbox, colonial marines, a game hated on by most of the community for beign short, broken, lacking in AI, outdated in looks, and Not being sure if it was an old time FPS (medkits and no gun limit) or a Modern Military Shooter (corridors, ADS, xpand hairs, controll hints, waypoints, QTE and Partial health regen) and ending up appealing to neither crowd. They had 6 years to make it, and over 20 million dollars to spend.
And dont say games like borderlands got in the way, as they were handled by the "A" dev team. Marines by "team B" and the godawfull DNF by Team C. for a team to only churn out badly made, schizophrenic nonsense after 6 years is such blatently obvious incompetance a child could see it!. come on, they couldnt even decide if they wanted an MMS or an FPS, leaving the game with a Bi-Polar mix of both, that is the ultimate incompetance, you either admit to being elitst and make an FPS, or you sell out to greed and make an MMS, you dont try to mix both or youll just anger both crowds and fail to sell to the majority of either. how did they fail to see that fundamental issue, a lack of clear target demographic? answer, incompetance.

two issues. 1. Kickstater can offer, at most, 500,000 pounds, the game needs, to be developed to an acceptable standard, at least £3,000,000. 500,000 wont even buy the graphics engine! let alone the whole game! self publishing offers even bigger issues as i can raise, at most, 10,000 pounds, not even enough for an 8 bit platformer. thats a gameplay demo at best.

you are being biased now, COD is the one that is not wanted on PC, sales of MMS on that platform have fallen through the floor, they only sell in ludicrous and unwarrented numbers on consoles due to the sheer number of "n00bs" on those systems, if you look at STEAM, you will see the main selling genres on that service are. .Platformers, Puzzlers, old Time FPS, and RPG games.

do your research before you attempt to bash me. i dont have TIME for call of duty excusionists sprouting crap like "old time fps isnt wanted by modern standards",. that is IGN propoganda, and pro console stupidity. all you need to do is look at steam,. and you will see that PC still prefers old time FPS over the VASTLY INFERIOR modern excuse.

again, its megacorps like activision and Ea PAYING people like IGN to sprout propoganda about how much cooler games like COD and Battlefield and Nu-NFS are to older games, despite them actually being vastly inferior, so those games are baught by "new gamers" who dont know how bad the games are because they naievly trust the paid trolls at places like IGN, to increase there Profits, again, GREED.

Also, nackidno, you are now on ignore.

now, kindly all stop with the bashing on my opinions, so i can shut down my account here in peace as i am no longer willing to be a member of this community as a disturbing majority of its members, although thankfully, not all, are too "modern" and "casual" to fit with my viewpoints and are only leaving me feeling disgusted, harrassed, and about as welcome as a bacon sandwich in a mosque!, without having to defend myself from people endavouring to make me look like a damn troll every 5 seconds, when all i have done is politely disagreed with someone for saying somethign that goes against my own personal experiences with the industry , so i can move to a considerably more elitist forum or a blogsite to start my own blog "The Depressed Old Time FPS Elitist". thank you!

call me crazy, but i cant quit while im feeling bashed, id feel like i was "pussying out!" and that, to me, is the ultimate insult!
