While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.
Well that's good news because 1200 points is to much! Another thing they need to fix is the price structure for points! If a game costs 400 points then I want to buy 400 points worth and not 500! I love Xboxlive arcade but still feel burned from the original Xbox because I had just purchased all the games on arcade and when I switched my gamer tag to my 360 anyone would of thought that MS would have given you credit for a games you already purchased!
Beans, I don't think they'll lower the 1200 points. I think that is a fair price. Around 13 Euro's. Lumines on PSP version cost you more.
What's not fair, is having to pay 600 points extra for something over and over again after that. Or at least, it's almost covered costs. I think MS will do something about that. Have it for free or something like that and give credit back to people that already bought that package.
I thought the problem was that they sold a "full version" for 1200 points, but then people found out it would take 1800 more points to get the other versions out there, making the full version, not so full afterall. Are they going to implement a refund system for people who felt shafted? And 3000 MS points is about how much Lumines 2 costs, and almost twice as expensive as the original Lumines for the psp, btw.
If it says full version, I expect the entire game. I don't mind if they charge for extras, but don't let me buy it, only to find out that five levels later I need to add more cash.
That's misleading. Apparently MS has some rule regarding limitations on game size and cost, but this would be remedied if people had known that the full version was, in fact, an extended demo.
I myself dont like how the MS point system is set up at the moment. Instead of buying MS points why cant we just purchase the item right then and there by just clicking buy. This whole point system is just taking stuff a hard way and realy making things look more expensive than it realy is. If the PSP cost more than that, actually then we are getting a good deal but the big numbers in the MS points mentally changes things.
