It really angers me to see LBP not doing as well as it should. It has so much going for it because it's so much fun to play and it's interesting to see all the crazy creations spawned from the community. The thing that has truly let them down (as well as the Vita) is the marketing. You can have the greatest machine or product in the world, but if it has minimal marketing, it will simply not sell. If marketed properly, it really could've been a system seller and it's a damn sha... #23
"Yeah we treated them poorly, by buying their games that werent on the wii console, but has their sequel exclusive to wiiU?"

Bayonetta 2 wouldn't exist if it weren't for Nintendo. Also, here's a small collection of quotes from fans showing their gratitude for Bayonetta 2 even coming out.
What makes a game bad? When it fails to set out what it wants to achieve, whether it is a horror game that lacks in atmosphere like Alone in the Dark or whether it is an interesting idea like Amy but poorly executed. #3
Considering that they took part in the Hillsbourgh coverup, I wouldn't take their opinions seriously at all. Nothing more than a shill for government and big business. #7
Also, Sega are in a heap of financial trouble at this point and they allowed Nintendo to help with the funding of the game. They didn't need to do that but they did which speaks volumes a... #2.1
If it went multi-platform, it'd be a decent feather in the cap for Nintendo. I wouldn't like to imagine if GTA V became a Wii-exclusive like Bayonetta 2 though. It's just not worth thinking about when you know how many people will overreact over something like that. #24
"the only reason developers make games is for us to buy so don't try to make them look like some saints. Gaming like any other business and is based on capitalism. If Bayonetta is now exclusively on the Wii U is because of money and nothing more."
Indeed. It is about money. Sega didn't have enough money to make Bayonetta 2 and Nintendo stepped in to snap it up. Sony and Microsoft probably weren't interested because Bayonetta only sold to a million custo... #1.4.1
Deadly Premonition really is a once in a generation game that surprises and confounds you. A lot of people don't get it because they can't look past the graphics (even though there are parts that have had a lot more graphical work done to them) or the wonky combat mechanics. However, if you give it a chance and go with it, you would find an oddly satisfying survival horror which explores paths that are rarely trodden upon.
Also, one of the very few games (Red Dead Re... #4
It proves that most gamers are rather fed up with their policies and are angry at being treated with contempt by EA as they squeeze out as much money as they can from them. Can't blame EA for doing that when you consider how much money they wasted on the Old Republic or marking up unreasonable sales figures to continue to exist. A few notable examples would be Mirror's Edge that was supposed to sell around about 3 million copies and Dead Space 3 having to reach 5 million copies or it&... #4.2.1
EA brought it completely on themselves and deserve absolutely no sympathy.
Protip: Try treating your employees like actual human beings for once, stop killing off talented development studios and stop nickeling and diming your customers at every turn. #4
What's the point in making prequels to anything really? I mean, I already know what happened in Gears of War and God of War; so how surprising can a prequel be if you already know what's going to happen? Exactly. #9
Wow. There's a lot of comments here, so I'll tackle this one if I can.
@Joeorc "notice you point out companies that make mainly just Software!"
I am not sure why the writer decided to compare companies which are primarily software based. Perhaps it's to show how well-run those businesses are compared to Sony at this point? I am unsure of the writer's motives but I am guessing that comparing companies that have a stake in the game ind... #1.1.17
@Hatsune-Miku "Sony is on the decline but they make the highest rated and best exclusive IPs."
Cognitive dissonance is such a terrible thing. If you believe that the female Assassin's Creed cosplayer is far better front-page news than this article, that's just your opinion man.
