I wonder if the extended ending will be 1.5 hours long like some Japanese games.
Maybe Bioware real strategy is put the ME fans to sleep before the ending cutscenes are over. That way the fans never saw what happened in the final minute.
If Heavenly Sword is to have a sequel, it needs to be a new hero or heroine that carries her swords. Nariko's story is done. She has served her purpose and died a heroine.
The new hero or heroine should also died after using the swords to destroyed the enemies and saved the people. That is the curse of using the power of the swords.
If there is going to another sequel, same thing, a new hero or heroine again.

Simple question to everyone, why do people so easily get hyped (and sold) after Nintendo showed some pre-rendered cutscenes from other console? Not only the early pre-rendered cutscenes proven to be fake, people insisted to want to believe Wii U is going to be better (or at least as good) as PS3 or X360? You know the development hardware are more powerful mostly for debugging and once some developers said Wii U is more powerful, people can't wait to believe it. At best some of the cross p...
On achievement, it has Gamerscore. To some gamers, they like to show off with huge Gamerscore number like 30,000 Gamerscore.
On trophies, it is not one big number to show off. Either the PS3 gamer can say, Level 15 trophies, 30 Platinum trophies, etc but there's just no one "total" number to show off.
In reality both achievements and trophies are only good for boasting and show off. So what you have 30,000 Gamerscore or Level 15 trophies. Some g...
I own PS3, X360 and Wii. Does that make me a "fanboy" since I play all the current gen?
So Reggie now calls Wii U can do everything? Isn't that supposed to be PS3? How about a simple function of able to play Blu-ray movies on Wii U. But e will say Wii U is not for watching movie which doesn't count as able to do everything. How about show Wii U able to surpass eye candy games like Uncharted or Last of Us? He will come up with some excuses why it's not needed.
I agree he did a great PR at Jimmy's show but if you are able to look closely, everythin...
In theory, developers can improve AI using DLC or patch but nowadays, why would they do that when the game shelf live is only a few months? They have to move to another game as soon as the previous game shipped.
Games that stay popular for years are usually online shooters which players play against other players, not AI.
Amusingly, I got more disagree than agree. Well, people loves to live in fantasyland than acknowledging that real world because it's to...
"Creative director Alex Hutchinson said the jump will be an "interesting hardware transition" due to higher production costs."
That is something most gamers try really hard to ignore because it's the biggest bottleneck. Sure we all like better graphics, good story, good AI and gameplay. But everything costs money to create. Just think why it costs Hollywood millions of dollars to create very high detailed CGI movie that runs for 2 hours. Minus the high...
If you care about the game story, FF XIII-2 story makes no sense what so ever. Even it's supposed to be time travel, they will never meet a copy of each other even you reset the time segment and return to the same time as before. 80+% of the game contents are recycled from FF XIII. There are only only 2 new locations and every location is slightly modified as different time segment. The game has no ending with the message, to be continued.
The DLCs make even less sense. F...
The problem is PC games that cross platform with next gen consoles will cost the same. It used PC version was $10 less, but not anymore for a long time.
It's the cost of making "next gen" quality like graphics, not "PC".
When that happens PC gamers will understand the meaning of more graphics to take advantage of the hardware. Right now they keep thinking more graphics to run on high end PC hardware doesn't cost anymore.
That's not Microsoft brand. Just a 3rd party that cloned Microsoft brand firmware.
While Microsoft currently doesn't check for cloned hard drive, there's no way to know if they will ever.
Also, it doesn't say if it contains the Xbox BC partition that allows you to play many old Xbox games.
$78 is not really that cheap since you are buying a generic hard drive with generic case that you can do yourself for less.
While it's true that it's too late to bundle COD MW3 with PS3, you need to understand that COD is not published by Sony. For example, Uncharted 3 is published by Sony and it's much cheaper for Sony to include it as the bundle when the game came out. That's why almost every game bundled with PS3 is published by Sony.
Since Activision knows COD MW3 will sell super well, there is no reason to let Sony bundle it with a PS3 for small licensing fee. Only now, as MW3...
Does that mean FF XIII takes place in of the galaxy that is going to be wipe out by Reaper? Does Commander Shepard know they need to fly to FF XIII planet to help them?
Keep dreaming and Sony will not give you BC. What are you going to do? Keep your old PS2 console around.
Let's see who's right when PS4 comes out.
Reply to Megaton:
It has been 3 years since ME2 (our time). 3 years is a long time for some girls to change their appearance. Who's to say after ME2, Ashley decided to have a new look? She's a girl after all.
I have been buying almost all my games in the last 2 years on sale for around $10-30 after waiting for 6-9 months. Not only the games are cheaper, it's more patched from bugs.
Tell this to most gamers and they just can't wait to play.
Digital download version pricing doesn't make sense especially for older games. If you can buy a year old game often GOTY/Complete Edition for $20, the download version is often more expensive minus the bonus DLCs. ...
I agree with most of what you said. As I said in my other reply, most gamers have no self control to not buy them. Simple example, all your friends give in and got COD and keep asking you to join in the multiplayer. Do you have self control to say you refused to buy the game? (I got more request from friends to join COD multiplayer and I keep telling them that I don't have the game.)
Gamers is the type of consumer that rather buy and then complain. Once you buy, you are t...
I have saying the same about waiting for the game price to drop to around $20-30 before buying. But how many gamers have the self control to wait?
We complain games are so buggy and incomplete when shipping. So why do gamers rushed out to buy them at full $60? Same reason, not self control to wait.
Maybe it's just showing some girls appearance changed a lot over the years. Ashley is one of those girls.
Liara lives for about a thousand years. Can you imagine if she changes the appearance that much in a few years only. Maybe if someone looks her up in 200 years, she may look more different like Ashley.
As long Wii U has Mario, it can't fail. Nintendo fans will buy it for Mario.
