Iv been playing violent video games since i was like...5. Nothings wrong with me...But, man, i sure wish i could push down the writer of this article and stick and ax in his stomach.

meepmoopmeep5867d ago (Edited 5867d ago )

kids always manage to get their hands on them. either from a parent or older sibling or friend. it's unavoidable.

maybe these people should focus on the problems with drugs, gangs, guns and everything else that kids are easily exposed to out there.

Breakfast5867d ago

no...its easier to blame video games. I didnt make my child do drugs and join a gang, gta made him do it.

-Or-

They should just BLAME CANADA

... the ESRB facepalms itself muttering, "you morons... that's what WE'RE here for... you just keep ignoring us!!!"

IntelligentAj5867d ago

Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.

It was worrisome to begin with.

It's a niche genre with only a handful of hits that can stand the test of time.

Cacabunga1d 11h ago

I like the sound of that!! I will for sure never support these gaas games.
Sony must be shocked at gamer's reaction, making them cancel a few of these and hopefully go back to the good heavy hitters they had us used to..
now bring on that PSPro reveal and show us some SP 1st party awesomeness.

CrimsonWing692d ago

What’s to be unsure of!? Look at the ratio of success to failure!

DarXyde1d 14h ago

It's pretty ridiculous.

Imagine having a breadth of data at your disposal to see the statistically low success rate of these games, only to be laser focused on the exceptional case studies.

shinoff21832d ago

Yes. Stop all the live service bs.

jznrpg2d ago

Only a few will catch on. You need a perfect storm to be successful in GaaS and a bit of luck on top of that. But a potential cash cow will keep them trying and some will go out of business because of it.

Helldivers 2 manages just fine…

Keep production costs low… don’t just make custscenes until the mechanics and enemies are perfected first.

Make so much content that you can drip extra content for years, and the game already feels complete without them.

Most importantly: make weapons, enemies, levels, and mechanics that will stand the test of 1000 hours. This might require more devs embracing procedurally generated leveled, which I think separates Helldivers 2 from Destiny’s repetitiveness.
