I am sure that XiSasukeUchiha will win this xD !

DVS-Zev3611d ago

That could be his master plan all along.

xHeavYx3611d ago

You get disqualified if you get downvoted ( trolling, off-topic,etc) so unless he behaves...

oasdada3610d ago

No wonder he stopped trolling :p

We are all in his genjetsu lol

DemonChicken3609d ago

along with the other xi....... =p

but hey expecting alot of activity this month especially with the upcoming E3!

SilentNegotiator3605d ago (Edited 3605d ago )

@Heavy

If I read correctly, "Trolling" comments don't count, but they don't get you disqualified. Which is good, because what gets marked as "well said" and "trolling" sometimes is incredibly bizarre; like when one-bubble trolls get 200 disagrees, 12 agrees and still somehow get a "well said" marking or when a comment that's almost universally agreed upon gets marked as "trolling"

soandsoz3599d ago (Edited 3599d ago )

I've noticed a few otherwise 'provocative' posters around here a bit better behaved recently. A plausible explanation to be had now, haha.

Is HAVAmedia the same company as HAVASmedia?
http://www.havasmedia.com/w...

If the answer is yes, good on N4G (I suppose) for naming the company. Note - one of HAVASmedia 'services' is Reputation Management. You know, exactly what a handful of users around here do

MajorLazer3592d ago

@Silent

It depends on the quality of the post. One could troll MS, like you, and get a 5:1 ratio of agree's, however it is still a trolling comment.

FlameHawk3610d ago

Na he won't, if you get reported for trolling or off topic etc, the bubble things you don't qualify I think.

Deathly_Grin3610d ago

I can't believe how hard I just laughed at this because you know it's true.

nope1113609d ago

randomass1713611d ago

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

isarai9h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken8h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Valkyrye7h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken5h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

Inverno3h ago

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop2h ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Chocoburger3h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer2h ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

badz1491h ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Profchaos1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.

A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC

Why Monopolies In Gaming Must Not Be Allowed

As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.

thorstein7h ago

Shouldn't be allowed in any field.

Inverno4h ago

And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.

jwillj2k42h ago

Eventually they’ll realize the value is with the employee not the company. Buying an IP means nothing if the people who contributed are let go. They’ll get it one day.

MrCrimson2h ago

tech is different because they buy threats and then kill them. Twitter bought Vine and did nothing with it. Despite people seemingly liking it. Could've had tiktok a decade before bytedance. go figure.

Zenzuu3h ago

Monopolies shouldn't be allowed regardless. Not just for gaming.

MrCrimson2h ago

They buy IPs not talent. That's why these buyouts never work and the IPs die. Right now it's too expensive to develop games - but I expect that to shift maybe as AI tools can make it easier. The best games have been indie games for awhile as big developers fuck their ips to death with "games as a service" -

Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.

Sciurus_vulgaris1h ago

The Locust trilogy concluded with Gears of War 3. I don’t get how Gears 4 and 5 are “woke” .
