I agree with his some of his opinions on gameplay vs. story. I play games to play a game, not to watch a movie. Gameplay should always be the main focus when making a game. Look at final fantasy. It went from nice Story AND gameplay to just focusing on elaborate cutscenes. We should've been on FF16 or something by now, not trying to fix the broken narrative that was the original FF13.

There are certain games out there that stand solely on its gameplay. Darksouls is a gam...

I dont agree with most of the characters on that list, but it's their opinion. I'd really like to see more female characters in Smash bros. 4. So Lyndis, Krystal (Starfox), Mia (golden sun), Fiora (Xenoblade), Calista (The last story), and Milkyway (Custom Robo GC) are just some of the many female characters nintedo could add. Zero samus is not a new character, she's another form of an existing character much like Shiek/Zelda.

As far as I know, 98% of games have some or violence in them. Mario punching, spinning, and stomping on enemies is VIOLENCE! Unless you're playing Tetris or a puzzle game of the same nature...then it's not violent.

Keeping more to the topic, I disagree with David Cage wanting games to reflect real life. Why? Cause I think that most gamers play games as an ESCAPE from real life. Games shouldn't aim to mimic real life, but give players different experiences away fro...

Partially true. It sucks that most gamers do hold power and graphics so highly when Nintendo has always been the ones providing great gameplay experiences on their consoles. A lot of those gamers would probably not admit that they were wowed with the wii's motion control and games simply because it looks like a "Gamecube game" The Wii-U IS an upgrade from the Wii and since many developers got a mastery of current gen tech, the games on the wii-u will only look that more amazing....

If they acknowledge themselves as gamers and don't play games or consider it a hobby. Then that would be hypocritical. I never met a fake gamer girl before who does that. I've only seen it in the media with whats-her-face that's on ign these days. When a person does something like that, yeah, it really is just for attention. Maybe she is a gamer and really did grow up playing RPGs and whatnot. I don't really know. Girls can be sexy and have their own right to flaunt what they ...

The first Bayonetta was an amazing game that I still hold in high regards. The problem I noticed was that it didn't get much marketing of in the States. If Sega pushed this game as much as they did with their Sonic Racing Transformed game, it might have been a much bigger success.

I'm hoping Nintendo puts Bayonetta in Smash bros. 4.

@OmniSlashPT
If they bought a PS3 and those games, they have to have some level of care and interest in gaming. Just based on that, I'd consider them gamers because they got what they wanted, played it, and most likely enjoyed it. If they don't acknowledge themselves as gamers, then they're not gamers. If they do say they're gamers and continue getting games, then they are gamers. Try to be more involved, maybe you can turn them to like gaming.

Wow really? This was news worthy for Kotaku?
The pants don't match her outfit at all and Cammy's main thing is her butt. Take that signature move and you don't have a "true" cosplay. You can remix characters, but taking away signatures of that character kills the character you're cosplaying as.

I disliked Heavy Rain mainly because of the entire scenario presented before me. I don't have any kids and the main character (the father) was stupid. First he lets his kid run off. Then he takes the blow of the car and the kid still dies. The wife leaves him and actually leaves the other kid with the father who now has mental issues. At that point I just gave up taking the game seriously. What I did like was the build up, but it seemed a little on the cheesy side in the last act.

The problem is that the gamer community that would actually not buy this content is very small. Most sales of a lot of games are the casual gamers. These are the people who typically found out about the game because of a commercial or because they liked the movies. not because they are actual RE fans who grew up with the series. Those are the people who buy content for this game and others and who continue to do so.

The idea of DLC was a good one, but to sell it of killed it....

I hate when big companies shut down smaller ones. On one side it's all about business. Did the game flop? Maybe? I don't really know the exact sales numbers, but I'm not sure this game sold enough to make Sony want to try this venture again.

In my opinion, this game did fail to celebrate Sony and ended up feeling mediocre after a while. I'm not a Sony fan nor did this game make me want to play the games of the characters featured on the roster. It had the sam...

Tiny Tina racist for using a few slang words? Isn't it racism in itself to say that those terms she used are "black" terms?

I simply disagree with this. Besides the red ring fiasco, paying to play online was a huge detractor for me for the 360. I like playing with my friends online, but to pay to play with them? I don't like them THAT much. Joking aside, I can see both sides of the argument.

I PAID for the online services on PSO/PSU. Why? Because that game was an online only game and $10 a month was a good deal back in the day. I payed because that was the only online game I had. I think that ...

First of all, I would like to say this one simple thing:

EITHER OFFER FREE CHARACTER DLC OR NO DLC AT ALL!

Why? Harada from tekken made a really good point, that characters in a fighting game are like chess pieces. You need all the pieces to play a complete game of chess. The same goes for fighting games (I do consider this a fighting game. DLC this generation has really sucked, especially since last generation games had unlockable content. DLC, Disc Locked C...

That concept console looks really bad. It's just overly designed to the point of being unattractive. Most of that stuff isn't needed either.

TBH, I don't care about the final outlook of the console itself, as long as the damn thing works and has a long life cycle. It's sad to see some of these newer systems failing after a month or so all while systems like the snes and Dreamcast work perfectly fine to this day.

If it wasn't fr that "Emotional" trailer, this franchise/game would've never taken off. Before that CG trailer, it was an under the radar game, but that misleading ad coxed people into buying the game expecting something that was only a small mention in the over all game.

I played through the game, somewhat coxed myself after seeing the trailer and absolutely hated it (played it solo). It was an extremely bland and safe game. I say safe because it had nothin...

Reviews are based the player's experience with the game and the games they have played before it. Personally, I'd give this game anything between a 6-8, 8.5 is pushing it a little though. This game is too good to be anything 5 and below, but this game isn't a Bayonetta amazing to warrant giving it a 9-10.

Yes, Bayonetta was the last hack and slash action game that blew me away. Asura's wrath was really good too, but what really killed that game for me was DLC...
