Last night many gamers were subjected to what could only be considered an insult on the intelligence of gamers. GTTV's annual pre-E3 show subjected viewers to an all out hour-long assault of product placements, a fake boobed Morgan Web wannabe and a super model that could careless about gaming. It was an insult to intelligence to say the least.
Get the scoop on Comedy Central's exciting new cartoon show inspired by the iconic Golden Axe video game
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.
GB: "With this feature, we will be taking a look at 15 of the best games from the PlayStation 2's vast library."
With so many games fighting for players' attention and interest losing out over time, time sink games are at risk of eventually losing steam.
It was worrisome to begin with.
It's a niche genre with only a handful of hits that can stand the test of time.
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.
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.
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.
Well I sure didn't tune in to see Geoff Keighleys ugly mug. I came to see two things Boobs and Games and the mission was accomplished. But I do get your point. Seriously Geoff could have been riding a unicorn and I wouldn't notice him standing next to Marissa Miller.
ROFL. Now thats funny.
I watched it too. I did find it pretty cheesy.
GTTV is like porn with a story. You have to sit though the cornball antics of people who couldn't give a rat's ass about gaming (the story) to get to the trailers (the sex).
It's the same exact reason why the VGAs are generally mocked by gamers. It's like they've got a bottomless barrel of ass clowns to throw on stage as a distraction for the pop culture dullards they're trying to leech ratings from.
There is no place for actual gamers on TV anymore. Not that I know of.
The Storm Trooper bit made me cringe.
I agree whole-heartedly with the author on this one.
The chick in the pink was hotter then that twig "super model" with her manly jaw....
