Is it because no one wants it they give it away for free?

Lionel Hutz6494d ago

My God, Mart, that is the most profound comment I have ever heard in my life! Please, indulge me in your secrets of being so wise and witty.

Antan6493d ago

Aw, he just lost a bubble, thats what you get for writing absolutley nothing meaningful on this site whatsoever, take your over zealous comments and cult followers with you. Let the real gamers on here talk and discuss in a normal manor without been knocked down by your constant moronic outbursts of utter garbage!

TheMART6493d ago

Aha like all the articles I submit? Man if you can't stand sarcastic humor... Well you're a sad man then. Are you posting news articles yourself or only typing messages?

Why I loose bubbles is because I get spammed by Sony fanboys that are spamming me for anything they don't like. I really don't mind guys. Four bubbles, five. I'll just make my posts a bit longer to tell all I have to say

Antan6493d ago

Im all for sarcasm, lowest form of wit people say! i post the ood bit of news, but im too busy working to do much more im afraid. Ill just be sticking to typing the odd comment here and there on things that are in need of a little unbiased help. The majority of people on here do just fine diggin round the various websites to bring everything together.

"Four bubbles, five. I'll just make my posts a bit longer to tell all I have to say"

You're right. In fact, you only need one bubble to say all you have to say:
"PS3 sux."

We don't spam you for disliking something. We argue with you because you dislike anything and everything related to the PS3 without making any useful contribution to the conversation on the topic at hand. If you are going to hate a system and then come over to that console's area on the site, please at least provide insightful comments as to why you do not like the PS3.

Mortal Kombat 9 Is Still NetherRealm's Best Game 13 Years Later

Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."

I agree. 9 was awesome

Shaolin Monks next please

vTuro243h ago

Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.

vTuro243h ago

That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.

Unions in gaming are necessary fr fr

montebristo1d 6h ago

I used to be anti-union, it kills productivity, investment and turns product mediocre. Their games suck anyways though so what was lost? Might as well get their people paid until they are dissolved.

shinoff21831d 5h ago

Unions are necessary regardless of how you feel. You know how fked the working class would be without them. As if we're not already.

montebristo1d 4h ago

No they aren’t, regardless of how you feel. Unions make zero sense for skill based labor. They are for people who press a button every 10 seconds on an assembly line. “working class” is a made up term. I don’t care about corporations or developers, I just want good games lol. Killing your incentives to appease the lowest common denominator doesn’t lead to great games imo

montebristo23h ago(Edited 22h ago)

I wasn’t trying to be offensive if I came off that way. The Union is an old mentality and I can see their usefulness but also the danger. We’re in the age of AI and robots and skill based labor. Unions can be dangerous these days. You could replace your entire workforce in one move. Checkmate. Look to the kiosk replacing workers in the 20 dollar minimum wage era.

Well run businesses don’t need unions. If you need a Union that business won’t survive anyway. Unless it’s propped up by the government with corporate welfare (which is the real issue). If you’re not going to spend some on your workers (Amazon, Google) then your welfare is cut off. No tax breaks. All you put together don’t match their wealth and resources, the union is a traditional memory at this point and counterproductive with this new enemy we face. They need a flying elbow from the top ropes. And by “working class is a made up term” I just mean we’re not a class system and even CEO Bobby Kotick puts in a days work lol. Or did.. It’s just a vague term that doesn’t mean anything no offense lol. People say “middle class” but that can change quick right? Up or down. That’s not a “class system”.
