Wow. 2K has been given a one year license to make MLB 2K13, according to pastapadre.

The license 2K got to make MLB 2K13 is just for the one year. Situation will be reevaluated then - maybe another company going into next gen. This was the only way there could be an MLB game on the 360 this year though and the league recognized that.

What a fucking joke. At this point, it will literally be nothing but a roster update, and 2K12 was already a broken pile of shit that 2K pretty much never bothered to patch and fix, so 2K13 is essentially going to be the same broken pile of shit, just with some makeup and lipstick smeared on. :smh:

Well, first off, he's completely wrong in his assumption that people play FPSs in the way that he's talking about. People playing FPSs for the competitive nature of their design and, most importantly, to play against other humans in that way. FPSs wouldn't be the massive market they currently are if there wasn't a multiplayer aspect to them that enticed people to keep playing. Call of Duty sure as hell isn't as popular as it is because of the singleplayer campaign.

As for his blaming of the developers for continuing to make games like what is currently out, that's the dumbest thing he could possibly say. Again, there's a reason why a new Call of Duty game comes out every 6 months; people buy it. As so many EA haters like to say about their football games, put your money where your mouth is.

Regarding his overall message, the guy is trying to walk the line between a double standard and he fails. He says numerous times that it's ok to play games like that and he enjoys them himself yet, his overall theme is to belittle those type of games and have a "shame on you type of attitude" toward people that play them and the developers that make them.

His general theme is definitely something I've thought about numerous times before. His question about "virtual blood" is easy for me to answer, outside of Hotline Miami, I haven't played a single game where I'm killing humans that aren't multiplayer opponents. I don't play the FPSs that most people play because, truthfully, I find them boring.

More talk of Congress regulating video games/parenting:

The government - still teaching the public to place blame anywhere but itself

Gotta love it... :smh:

Congress couldn't get their way with the internet, so they have to attack the second most evil thing that's warping young children's minds. :glare:

First hour into Spec Ops: The Line. It's definitely your boring generic 3rd person shooter (I HATE 3rd person shooters) but, knowing that the story is interesting and, sadly, I've had the twist spoiled for me, I'm still interested to see how it turns out. Obviously, not giving a shit about the shooting, I'm playing on the easiest difficulty and it is, indeed, a breeze. Should be able to plow through this game in another few hours and I can mark off one of the 50+ games on my Steam account that I haven't finished yet.

You should play it on Suicide Mission. It's one nasty experience. I loved the game, though...probably the best story in a shooter I've played in a long time.

You might take a look at the NCAA General discussion above.

If anyone was going to get DMC 3

I haven't seen this kind of hate since ME3 ending...lol

I have the game and its not a terrible as these reviewers would lead you to believe, honestly I like the game but if you are a diehard DMC fan then I could see why you wouldn't like this game as I have played just about all of them (except the last one)

Honestly I like it for the easy pick and play style I don't have the time to invest in mastering games to that extent anymore, and I can't remember not one DMC that had a good storyline anyway.

Probably the best review I have read about the game IMO, though he is generous at certain points but overall its exactly as described.

The idiot fanboy uproar is HILARIOUS. God the internet is so fuckin' dumb. :smh:

Their ONLY hope is that Hollywood is a big donor to the Left. Unless you think the Left just likes spending money for shits and grins... Oh wait maybe your right. :nod:
