This game is separate from the first two so there's no need to play them although they are also great. #2

It's quite true PC sales have been on a decline, but I have found much use in my PC since I've come to PC gaming in little over a year. I turn on my PC to game probably every other day if I'm not too busy with work. As someone mentioned, Steam sales and greenmangaming sales are great! I usually shop on eBay as well to get gaming codes as well as look for bargains on hardware in case I feel like adding something to my build. I guess we are some of the few (who knows) who like our P... #4

That's a decent price to get Tomb Raider at on eBay. You can always find better deals as well on eBay. I picked up Bioshock Infinite and Crysis 3 for $39 together from there. Gotta love eBay I guess. #7.1

LOL! Got guts admitting that. #4.1

"People have terrible taste". Is this because it may be opposed to yours? I'm actually not being rhetorical. #1.1.1

I thought it was a pretty solid overall conference. There were a few dull moments with some of the dialogue from the designer, but the games shown were very impressive. That racing game looks pretty darn sweet and I'm no racing fanatic but I definitely was intrigued. Also Killzone, Watchdogs, Infamous, and Capcom's working title were pretty darn good.
I know we all say gameplay comes first, and I agree it does, but those graphics are very impressive. Look at gameplay and graph... #22

To each his own, but I would have to disagree with MGS. MGS3 Snake Eater is regarded by many as the best in the series. To say MGS could not recapture the allure of the original I guess is quite subjective. I guess that's the differences of opinions. Mine nor others should be taken as fact. #6

Lets get something out of the way. As mentioned before calling someone as "supergeek" as you phrased just makes yourself look quite juvenile. Secondly this myth of PC players buying a GPU every year is ridiculous. Their are those users who do that, but the majority of PC users don't. I have a GTX 680 and have no plans of buying a new GPU this year. Quite frankly most PC games don't utilize the power with exceptions of games like Metro 2033, Battlefield and I would say less t... #4.4

@Kutocer You're quite right there. I guess if you go in knowing what to expect, then the purchase definitely is on the customer. From what I've played it's okay, and like you I knew it wasn't going to be anything phenomenal. So with that it'll be a distraction. I currently have a backlog of PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC titles to finish off (shame on me I know), so in terms of gaming entertainment I have no worries. I just fined it hard to finish games as I've gotten older... #16

What you say is very much true for some, but as you know does not apply to all. Rental services may not be available to all, therefore people may not be willing enough to take the plunge on dropping down $40-$65 after taxes for a game which is quite a lot in today's economy. I've been burned by MOH, but some may enjoy it. I usually wait for reviews, but as you said I took the plunge and decided to see for myself. Was it wise? Not in the slightest because I found it to be a very averag... #13.1

Played it on PC and the graphics aren't horrible, but as you said the gameplay is quite boring. Dialogue leaves much to be desired, I think developers need to realize that if you know in the bottom of your heart that the game is not going to be good, then don't even release it. Gearbox must have come to a point where they were looking at the product and said, "You know what, this is not our best work". If more developers did this, we might have better games. I don't thin... #12.1

I did the same with MOH: Warfighter. I've learned that in order to save my money i'll wait on reviews. This goes especially for single player games. Of course you can make up your mind for yourself, but who wants to throw away their hard earned money when you can get a much better game? #9.1

Well with all things being as they should, the game should have been released "on time", but to be honest they're not missing out on much. Played some of it this morning and I have to say it's a very average game. The shooting is okay and uses the customary shooting scheme layout we all are use to (not saying anything is wrong with that). Yet the feeling of being scared/suspense is certainly not there. #4

Played some of it last night and I have to agree its really not that great. It stands out in no area which is just a bit disappointing. Unfortunately as others have noted, license video games rarely do well. #7

I guess it's a matter of taste more than anything. I'm figuring he probably enjoyed it more than other reviewers and maybe looked past its faults. Who knows? I guess if anyone is remotely interested give it a rent and judge it for yourself that way you're not out $50-$60 if you don't like it. If there's no rental service where you live wait for that inevitable price drop. You know there will be one in a matter of weeks for a sale as all games do through Amazon or your loca... #1.1

Ummm... why are you on to your 5th vita? #8.1

It's nice that these companies are bundling their hardware with games. The games may or may not be to everyone's taste, but at least you get an added incentive. #1

This is why you can't win with everyone. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Not saying this is the same, but when Ninja Theory changed some things about DMC all hell broke loose. Now because the gameplay mechanics are pretty much tried and true with GOW, with a hint of enhancements some are going to cry formulaic.
It's impossible to please everyone. As a developer you just have to remind yourself that all of your customers won't be pleased. If you can please the ma... #5

Just watched the video and I have to agree with Jaffe on this one. She came out with an assumption and tried to state it as fact. I'm assuming from her dialogue she's had no real exposure to these games, and she cites references GTA as all news journalists appear to do when this topic presents itself. Her journalism in this case was pitiful as it appears she was attempting to coax the interviewee in joining in on her opinion.
I can't say positively if there's an under... #3.3.1

That sounds about right, but because Metro 2033 was not well optimized you can't evem get 60FPS with a single 2GB GTX 680 playing at 1080p. Most games however max out with that card and you get a steady 60FPS with it. You can run The Witcher 2 with max as well at 60FPS, but with ubersampling disabled. Unfortunately games such as mentioned above as well as Sleeping Dogs running with everything maxed out makes the higher end single graphics cards work hard for its money. #3.2.1
