Thank you. :) #2.1

The only thing that went through my mind upon reading this: "Can you imagine those two bundled?" #15

Interesting find, Maria. (And Haydan Christensen is back! o_o)

Even with what little details I've seen/heard of this game, it's really the only title I've seen that shows some worth for investing into the One--even then I wonder if it'll even remain exclusive, given Remedy's track record. #1.1

That's correct. Just .1up'd their previous high scorer: Skyrim. #7.1

No, that came out about...9 months after PS3's launch. #15.1

Indeed.
After playing FoM, I don't want to jump on the "lol PS3 had no gamez" train I constantly saw back then; however, I think it pales in comparison to 360's. As dated as it looked, Condemned perfectly captured first-person melee-based combat. And CoD2>3 #14.1

"Secondly, are you sure you're not the problem with the game?"

Good question. While I am limited to a laptop (a couple years old/Win 7 64-bit), things were really smooth sailing until I completed one specific task, outside of some framerate drops. There wasn't many settings choices to work with: turn off HD videos, put effects quality to low, limit pixel count (all of which I've tried). I'm going to retry with a few of Daedalic support's tips,... #1.1.1

Important Note:
Hope everyone enjoyed the review...misplaced in the blog section. Just kidding, it's purposefully here! ^^

Cat wanted me to submit here as a non-score review since that's the way she prefers it, as some of you are already aware. There's a few things I need to go through that I wanted to explain in the comment section:

-The big meow wanted me to go ahead and submit this since I was already past the deadline.
-Although it doesn't seem... #1

Or perhaps you cannot seem to get a hold of the fact that I recognize that and my point is in regards to the arbitrary shifts in some gamer's attitudes towards things they used to be morally opposed to, with your first comment being a portrait of the back-pedaling I'm seeing. (Note: that still doesn't necessarily paint you as one of the people I'm speaking against)

Seeing as how you spend the rest of your comment countering points I never bothered to argue ag... #11.4

I'm...not exactly sure where this conversation is heading. Let me try some bullet points to clarify:

-I am not griping against the new cost of PS+ multiplayer for PS4 or that the service in general doesn't have value (last night's conference showed 95% think it's a great service)
-I'm not explicitly grouping you in with the people on n4g I'm talking about, only point out how your first comment seems to exactly mirror the typical defensive resp... #11.3

A different generation doesn't discount the fact, unfortunately. If n4g had it's own goggle-like search engine solely for comments you'd see a profusion of posters in years past stating "Sony would NEVER stoop to charging for online play," and even to the days before this conference. Now, you could probably find a decent portion of those same posters marking this change as a something to be expected, or even a 'good thing' (because reasons).

L... #11.2

Knowing the possible--not likely--lucrative opportunities, plans could be bound to change. I wouldn't be surprised to see Xbox KH remaster news crop up IF KH3 somehow becomes a gangbuster franchise on the One as well. #8.1

I don't understand why that detracts from the megaton news, overall. The official announcement of KHIII and XIII-Versus revamped into a fresh new FF are 'forever' marked as bringing fans joy during Sony's conference. It could also be later announced for the 2600 for all fans care; they'll still remember where they heard/saw the news first. #3.3

You're basically highlighting Silent's whole point.
A portion (or many) of the same people who snickered and jeered at MS' XBLG policy, regardless of what another poster found in its value, are now throwing up the obvious defense "well...at LEAST it isn't that console" in order to justify this action. Before the Sony conference, it wasn't necessarily MS' similar $5 monthly cost that got to most people but the PRINCIPLE of the paywall that constantly had anyone--from fanboy to typical gamer--foaming at the mouth.

"The Xbox One will arrive November 2013 for $4.99 in the U.S."

I think I'll bite at that price. :P #5

@rainslacker (thought I clicked reply :P )
"Thinking about it logically, which I tend to do in blogs more than comment articles, it's kinda sneaky for them to try to slip this in after all the great things they said about gamer rights."

Heh..pretty much. When it was initially suggested in forums, some stated they didn't hear that PS+ online part b/c they were hooting and hollering from Sony's 'good news' before it. "That's the point" was the first thought that came to mind. #9

Everyone at 5 or higher stays where they are. What's really not fair is how I'm still being denied the ultimate prize of n4g commenting: the 11th bubble. Now, I'll never reach it with bubbles being removed for good. :'( #1.1.1

Thanks for providing the link for the beta invites, Dusty. Now comes the million dollar question:

Who will be the first poster to have their bubble count go down to one again?

Edit: My guess is Cat. [o_o]~ #1

Did somebody say Xbone?!?! XD

Glad that's out of the way. I thought this was a pretty good blog (grammar nazi sense tingles in some places though). The thing that's going to enrage me is the possibly awesome games they show at E3. Not the Halo or Gears--excitement declined for both to the point that I haven't touched 4 or Judgment, but some new stuff I'm sure they'll show. That's a feeling I've never had before: angry at awesome experiences bei... #5

If you hear any of the comments they cherry pick, you know those posters are stating more than their disagreement with the review. It's essentially the perfect opportunity to display just how stupid and angry the internet can be over review scores (typically), as if they hold an emotional stake with a franchise or company. #1.1
