Wow bet you Xbots cant wait until this demo hits

Ha Ha

If thats the only thing you got to look forward to FORGET IT !!

Ha Ha

Presentist5830d ago

Who cares, I'll have purchased it by then.

JsonHenry5830d ago

My friend back in my hometown has been playing it on his modded 360 for two days now and says he loves it. I would call him a liar, but the site I use to download pr0n torrents has had it listed (along with others) for a couple of days now. So his story might be legit.

Either way, as soon as gamefly gets it to me I will be enjoying it as well.

Seraphim5829d ago

Exactly.

So much for a May release of the demo. It would have been great to have last week [May 18-25]. I'm leaving for Minnesota [Yankees game Monday Night] but as soon as I get back next week I'll be cracking out on Ninja Gaiden II. Hopefully I'll have it done once MGS4 drops the week after. Not planning on it but even if I can knock it out in 2 weeks I'll be happy. ;)

little off topic: Thing that sucks is I'm on the last leg of Lost Odyssey and will probably have wait till next week to finish that as well. Like 2 hours left to play, 3 skills to obtain [91/99 seeds] and 1 more Backyard event on Super Heavy Class [Ring Master] and I gtg out of town. :D

livespawn5830d ago

uh...i look froward to the full game moron

livespawn5830d ago

ya, it'd be different if it was released lets say this weekend so i could try it first but noooo.... lets release it in JPN where they could care less about NG2. stupid M-shi7 sometimes

Jack Bauer5830d ago

it's a sweet demo....i wasnt planning on buying it, but the demo convinced me to get it...although im curious as to why the review scores have been average for it...seems like a solid 9+ title based off the demo.

Imallvol75830d ago (Edited 5830d ago )

If you watch the videos of the guy playing through the demo, there are two levels and they look quite long. :)

Im looking for the link man, but I can't seem to remember where I found it.

FOUND IT. http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...

I almost got the Lost Planet 2 one, but that get no One in the Leaderboards was effed up.

Many of those trophies are just time consuming, if we are going to talk some seriously hard platinum trophies, put MGS4 in there.

I will never forget the day i got that Big Boss Emblem.

Complete the game in less than 5 hours
Use no continues
Use no health items
Kill no enemies
No alert phases
No special items
Complete the game on The Boss Extreme

One of my proudest trophies :)

skcej3009d ago

yeah the Lost Planet 2 one was pretty ridiculous with the amount of time you had to put in but when I researched the list I found a lot of people saying that the Nom de Guerres were really annoying/ quite tricky to get. I did think about putting MGS 4, maybe it should have got an honorable mention. Impressive trophy to have though dude! :)

kotaku773009d ago (Edited 3009d ago )

Yeah! specially when you got to play over and over MGS4, when you could be playing, idk, MGS3 or any other game

FallenAngel19843009d ago

I'm only one Trophy away from getting the Platinum in MGS4, but unfortunately it has to be that damn Songs of the Battlefield one that requires me to get all the emblems. It's such an eyesore to be so close only to be set up against such a daunting task

Are AAA Games Too Easy?

"Perhaps extreme difficulties are still here, just presented in different ways. Multiplayer focused shooting games (for the most part), have average (to-below) difficulty within their campaigns. However, jumping online and playing competitively can produce a welcomed contest." KJ of Play Legit Writes

From Software thinks differently

bacrec13313d ago (Edited 3313d ago )

Real Talk. Wish more companies would get the memo.

joab7773313d ago (Edited 3313d ago )

So do I. Unfortunately, it doesn't sell so it doesn't get made. At least it doesn't sell 5-10 million like Assassin's Creed, And all the others. Bloodborne is one of the best games I've ever played, and it ruins other games b/c it expects better of you. It wants you to play it for awhile, instead of moving on to the next big thing a week later.

It's goal is to consume you, and not just your time, but your patience and your will, and it promises, unlike other games, to reward you for that time w/ actual satisfaction.

breakpad3313d ago

eeh ?? have you heard bloodborne or Souls games ? ..no if the develeopers dont seek wide casual acceptance (aka all kids must play the game) no ... are not easy

bouzebbal3313d ago (Edited 3313d ago )

i think western games are getting much easier than ever.
japanese are the only ones who dose difficulty. Games like Ninja Gaiden, Souls, Bloodborne raise the level.

johndoe112113313d ago

Why? That makes no bloody sense. Most games have varying levels of difficulty, if you are someone who likes to be constantly punished and frustrated while playing a game simply start off playing the game on it's hardest difficulty. Why the hell should they make all games with only one level of frustrating difficulty, to pander to a select few who have nothing better to do than spend 10 hours trying to pass one level?

This argument makes no sense and since bloodborne released people act like they've forgotten about difficulty settings. People saying all games should be difficult and punishing are selfish and inconsiderate and don't give a damn about anyone else's time or preferences. if gamers want to spend over a month trying to finish every game then they should not complain when only 5 or 6 games get released every year. It's a senseless foolish expectation.

From Soft makes Souls games hard the wrong way. Slow clunky controls and questionable mechanics and design. Anybody can make a game where you die a lot. It takes more talent to make a game with a good difficulty balance and smooth gameplay. I have not played Bloodborne but at least it looks to be step up in gameplay over the Souls games.

freshslicepizza3313d ago

from software became a aaa developer based on expanding its fanbase who often felt neglected to play games where if you die you suffer for it. the first demons souls game was not marketed as a aaa game, it grew from word of mouth and they managed to fill an area that was being ignored.

lots of aaa games are made easy and that makes sense since they want the barriers of people to play them to be as wide as possible. the more accessible the more will play is what they are thinking because aaa games cost a hell of a lot more money to make now than they did 30 years ago.

AngelicIceDiamond3313d ago

The industry doesn't use the word easy but "accessible" so yes games are easy.

joab7773313d ago

It's because they know that you won't be playing long. Only certain games get played over a period of time longer than 2 weeks. They just want your money, and want you to finish it. And they know that if you get the Souls reputation, you are screwed.

700p3313d ago

it depends on the game really.

BitbyDeath3313d ago

Depends on the difficulty setting.

Perjoss3313d ago

I find the souls games a bit too hard personally but I think Bloodborne has perfectly balanced difficulty.

KryptoniteTail3313d ago

Too hard, actually. Well, not "hard" but complicated, with long boring tutorials, and unbalanced sections and they try your patience with collectathons, bulls*** missions and try to make up for it with half hearted multiplayey and/or bitchy trophies.

I prefer more indies these days. AAA can still be the best around but most are boring rehashes and DLC fests.
