Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion
Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.
Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.
Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.
Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
Clive actor Ben Starr plays kiss, marry, kill with Final Fantasy characters, and decides to off Cid from Final Fantasy 12.
Ew VO actors and their cringe core. Fiverr voice actors could out perform this chump.
the thing i dont understand, except for the Nintendo Wii, is that there isnt shortages (as far as i know) for the PS3 or Xbox 360 so why are people going for ebay when retailers normally offer better deals, unless people are offering better deals on ebay, but then arnt they making a loss themselves? .... *confused face*
They give average sale data in the article, but don't differentiate between the type of XBOX or PS3, nor do they take into account that often games and accessories are bundled with the auctions. Anyway, as far as I can tell the PS3 and XBOX are (in general) at or slightly below retail, while the Wii is well above.
please tell me, why buy a ps3/360 on ebay when you can just go to target,wm, or bestbuy, someone please tell me.......
The Wii's avg price is >360's...
The Wii saw huge demand because its still very hard to buy in a shop so people are willing to pay over the RRP.
I think its madness for people to buy a 360 on Ebay, you wont save much and if its second hand you probably wont get the warranty.
PS3 sales I can understand since the console is so expensive and people are looking for a deal.
