Shelby just wanted to trade in Resistance: Burning Skies at Best Buy. Why did they make it so difficult for him?
Resistance: Burning Skies was pitched on October 19, 2009 as Resistance: Homefront, 2.5 years before it was released on the PS Vita.
Game was a wasted opportunity on the Vita. Really disappointing release that stank of a rough rush job.
I never understood how Nihilistic Software got so much work, they were allowed to make Resistence and Call of Duty on Vita when their track record is terrible. was their really no talented devs they could find
Crazy to think this dev team also failed with COD. I think that unproven team bit off more than what they could chew. In a parallel universe they could’ve been the next big thing by this point if they had only tried to be creative with these major game licenses.
If bend studio wasn't busy working on uncharted vita, they would probably have been the best studio to work on that project.
Makes me wonder if Bend could make a new Resistance, especially if they aren't doing Days Gone 2.
The question is, how do make a good sequel to a series where all of the games are all actually quite a bit different from one another?
R1 had much more horror and the chimera were tougher, R2 was obsessed with scale and had so many enemies on screen (the Chicago Battle was amazing), and R3 felt smaller (the scale of the battles was only big towards the end) and less scary than the others and it took some inspiration from Half Life 2. R3 had the best shooting mechanics by far though and it was cool that they brought back the weapon wheel.
I would like them to try balance the horror of R1, the scale of R2 and shooting mechanics more like R3, of course with all the crazy upgradeable weapons, but that seems like a tough task. The only way they they could really continue the story is if they sort of ignore Resistance 3's ending and we see the Chimera that Dedalus talked about.
Loved Uncharted Golden Abyss, more for it's inventiveness than anything else. Using the motion controls to fine tune aiming down scope was bordering on genius and worked beautifully.
Best Buy officially ends its Gamers Club Program as of Feb. 28th, 2021. While the company had stopped selling the membership, it was still honoring the discount but that ends next month.
Can’t believe another retailer hasn’t come out with a similar program but offering 10% instead of the 20%. I’d sign up immediately.
20% off any new game sku including CE's and preorders, plus 10 bucks for preordering...ya nothing was even close.
Yup. I’d still have it if possible. The deals I got were insane, there is no way they didn’t lose their ass with that program. I’m not surprised it ended lol.
We needed this program now more Than ever. I’m not paying $70 for a lot of these games coming out now.
If you were one of the lucky ones to get a Nintendo Switch for the holidays, well, congratulations, you’re in for a treat. Now that you have the console, it’s time to pimp out your newly-minted device with some much-needed accessories, and right now, Best Buy has a bunch of options 50% off.
The moral of the story? When customer service offers you a $30 gift card, hold out. They'll offer you $50 in a few days.
I would never go through that much bullshit.
I'm not completely understanding this. You wanted to trade in this game and that gave this person a $30 gift card which is really good and then you wouldn't take it so they gave you a $50. Is the game even worth $50?
and this is why companies go belly up and our economy is so screwed up. Instead of getting to the root of the problem and fixing it lets just throw some money at it and of course more then what its valued and hope it goes away.
I hate how this phrase is overused by apologists on this site, but:
What a WHINY, ENTITLED, CRYBABY.
A database error causes him/her to get offered a free $30 giftcard, and s/he refuses it. S/He gets a $50 giftcard and then whines that it was "hidden" in the envelope.
My word. SHUT UP.
