Hah. How has any of that been proved when the game is still in its first free month?
Maybe it's just me, but Toys R Us giving special pre-order deal doesn't equate to a "price reduction". They only did it for buyer incentive because they were one of the few retailers who didn't have the exclusive pre-order content that Amazon/Gamestop/Best Buy has.
Dark Souls has a better combat system, interface, enemies, and challenge.
Skyrim has a better story, quests, open world, and more hilarious bugs.
It depends what basket you want to throw your eggs in. For me, Skyrim's combat simplicity and lack of challenge is a turnoff. I'd love to try to enjoy the deliciously fantastic sandbox, but it keeps making me fight things. Dark Souls all day.
This is hilarious. Scratch that, pathetic.
Christwire is a satire site, like The Onion. You're all replying to a fake petition from a fake news site, because Kotaku is too stupid to recognize it... which surprises nobody.
Doesn't mean his point isn't spot on. The same site critiquing Skyward Sword for lack of innovation on the "old Zelda formula" gave Modern Warfare 3 an 8.5. Think about how absurd that is.
How did it become cool to hate on COD? Oh, right, it's been bad rehashed garbage since COD4.
"According to police reports, the man allegedly wheeled his cart over to the hardware section of the store, where he used a screwdriver to pry the games out of their protective, alarm setting-off shells."
From the article, love people that comment without reading shit.
And getting agrees doesn't seem to be your strong suit!
The vote total was only low because the video was released earlier in the day. And apparently it was enough of a 'story' for them to pull the video completely off youtube for some lame attempt at damage control.
2,000 within an hour or two of the video going live, and a 1:5 like/dislike ratio. That's the story, not the number of votes.
And of course it will sell millions. Just like iPhones. Just like the Wii. Casual streamlined garbage is the opium of the masses. That doesn't mean its not terrible, or that it doesn't deserve every ounce of criticism it gets for being the same repetitive remake in a new box for a premium price.
Typical COD fanboy, sales numbers are all that matters eh? Looks like the Wii was the best console of this generation!

While exclusive, they're also fluff. They're nice to have for about a second, and there's better available. This is a highly overhyped complaint in the case of BF3.
It's not great, but it doesn't suck. Reviewer comes off as a nitwit to anyone who actually gave the demo a whirl.. he missed some pretty obvious stuff that makes the crap hes complaining about irrelevant. Baddies be bad.
The reason Amazon is going this is because the collectors edition is ALREADY going to be sold at the same price as the normal edition. They announced this, its just going to be limited.
So dont think this is some kind of special Amazon deal.
This site is a fake/satire site for entertainment, btw.
Yeah, you guys are right. They went from going after jail time/huge fines/trying to show he was profiting off his endeavors... to telling him not to do that again. Voluntarily.
Total win for Sony! /roll eyes
Guess you forgot that Sony already caved and were forced to settle with Hotz. The hive has moved elsewhere, victorious.
All excellent points. Unfortunately, I only clicked this link to look at Tifa.
