Post it on craigslist or something, I sold my elite for 50$ bucks cheaper than brand new on there. I had played it one time and never got any other games besides Kung Fu Panda and my PS3 was stolen!

Yep, just signed up. If you try to go through Major Nelson's site, be prepared to press F5 a lot. It took forever to get to the site and not get a 500 error.
Thanks for the heads up, signed up and guess things had slowed down as I had no problems getting through.

IGN: When Did Gamers Become So Soft? (good article)
We didn't. Developers stopped taking chances (except for small developers, like From Software) because of the ginormous amount of money spent on these games. During the 8-bit and 16-bit days, when it didn't take $10 million to make a game (as according to this article), you had so many games that were unforgiving or just ridiculously hard to beat in all genres. The only genre that continued that, somewhat, into the PS1 and PS2 days were the RPGs, and, even then, it was only by the small developers (like Nippon Ichi).Quote:

Good article and IGN should not be used in the same sentence. Have you read some of their "what X game could learn from x game" fluff lately?
It is getting so bad this guy made a hillarious article generator for IGN.
As for the difficulty in games, there are plenty of tough games, especially when you bump up the difficulty on them. The gaming market is so much larger than in the 8 bit days and developers have to cater to a vast audience. While not exactly Indy, Super Meat boy is an example of a brutally tough game. They are out there in spades if that is what you are looking for. My reflexes are not what they once were and while I used to enjoy extreme challenges, I lack the desire and patience to replay levels over and over and over. Trials HD being the rare exception.
Oh you will die multiple times in Super Meat Boy, then get to watch all of your deaths at once. It's awesome.
I could handle the regular world in SMB up to a point, the dark world was just brutal and then you have that warp zone, The KID. No thanks.Quote:

WELL worth it. GREAT game.
I bought it for PC and hated the controls... am I missing something? I couldn't get past 15 minutes into the game before I gave up on it.Quote:

Yeah. The PC port is ATROCIOUS. Buy the Xbox game and play it on the 360. Works WAY better.Quote:

Popular video game systems such as the Wii,PlayStation and Xbox may still be in homes next decade, but they will look much different. Rather than buy a separate console, Enderle expects that consumers will instead buy smart televisions with a gaming system built into it, not to mention tablets and smartphones that will continue to ramp up their gaming options.“It looks like analog game systems won’t make it until the end of the decade,” Enderle says. “You are already seeing the Wii have a tough time holding on to the market and PlayStation has been struggling for a while.”
The gaming systems that will succeed in the future will be those that manage to move away from being focused solely on video games and more on other entertainment options such as movies, evolving from a traditional game console into more of a set-top box.
They've been saying that for years. That's a lot of contract stuff that they'll have to work out. I just don't see it happening. No way Micro$oft is going to be willing to share their profits with 20 different television makers just so they don't have console expenses.
For Sony, it might make sense, since they are a television manufacturer already (though it is a separate part of their company from their video game section), but there's no way Nintendo and Micro$oft are gonna go that route.
It's one of those mediums where the consumer these days still doesn't mind having that physical disc. Though, I have never seen any kind of sales figures for digital sales of full retail games....I have a feeling they are pretty poultry. I don't think we'll see this until the next generation of gamers 20 years down the road or more.
Unfortunately, there's no way of knowing how digital sales are doing through Steam because Valve never releases them. While there are estimations that Valve is 70% of the market share of digital media sales, it's basically impossible to what that equates to in sales numbers.Quote:

I wouldn't be surprised if close to 50% of the sales for PC games is digitally through Steam or Amazon's download service. It's like you get every game you'd want to buy at the midnight release date. Why would you wait for the physical copy of it?
Yeah I was thinking more of full game sales from XBOX and PS3....to me they're too expensive, and most games don't even become digitally available until months after release.
That's because Micro$oft and Sony are still prescribing to the super old way of doing business instead of pushing toward the future of gaming (aka digital only releases).Quote:

I need some advice. I will be buying Uncharted 3 on release but want to buy something else for this Thursday when I'm off work. I can't decide between Rage, Batman, and Battlefield 3.
I don't play multiplayer and only play these game for the campaign. Any suggestions? I'm leaning towards Rage but not 100% sure.

If you want depth/length, I'd go Batman... Rage was pretty shallow and not all that long. If you love guns & shooters, then Rage is probably your answer. I don't have any input on BF3.
Cool...thanks. I may get Batman then. Heard a lot of good things about it.Quote:

Battlefield 3 is getting horrible reviews for the singleplayer experience as it's just like Call of Duty in that it's horrible scripted shit that lasts 5-10 hours with no reason to play it more than once.
Batman is getting ridiculously good reviews and is being heralded as the best Superhero game EVER. Pretty easy choice in my opinion (and I HATED the first Batman game because of how linear it was).
Thanks Mors. I just read another review on Batman and based on what you and G said I think Batman is a slam dunk. :nod:Quote:
