For this and many other reasons, this is why I use an ISP that has no bandwidth cap. Unless you live out in the fucking boondocks, there is no reason to be a customer of Comcast or any other huge conglomerate ISP. Do some research and find some smaller ISPs that service your area, and sign up with them.

I live in the…

What reason could you possibly have to censor the twitter account name?

Yes, it is a horrible situation.

I just don’t want to have multiple storefronts on my system. I’ve already got Steam and GOG, I don’t also need Origin, Humble, Desura, and god knows what else is out there. I also am not a fan of EA in general and don’t like the way they do business. Their whole development model is a detriment to the industry as I…

*Sigh*

It just occurred to me that due to EA’s incredibly stupid exclusivity bullshit vis-a-vis Origin, the only way I’ll play this or any other new god damned Star Wars game in the future is create an Origin account. Fuck.

Force 10 From Navarone isn't on this list, making the entire thing irrelevant. Although I appreciate the effort.

Guns of Navarone is fun camp WW2 stuff, but Force 10 has a bloody excellent cast and an awesome plot and some brilliant dialogue and...yeah it should be on the list.

My response to all of that is : crowd-funding and self-publication on PC. That’s yet another positive aspect of PC development - you don’t have to pay a platform owner to publish your shit. Sure, Valve might take a cut of the profits, but they don’t charge you to publish on Steam. Alternatively, just release the game…

I think you misunderstood my comment.

Only problem with that argument is that Monopoly is a storied franchise. It’s existed for decades, and is still actively published under a variety of other IPs.

Phantom Dust is an action-combat game. You can no-more copyright its gameplay than you could an FPS or a MOBA or any other genre. The assets are what matter,…

So, take the build you’ve got, create new art assets, rename the game, and publish on PC. It’ll sell like nobody’s business.

There. What they should have bloody done in the first place.

Going to a major publisher with a game pitch is exactly as foolish as going to FOX with a show pitch. They might back it for a bit,…

Nice.

That was actually just Ninja Resurrection, it looked similar and was based on the same book as Ninja Scroll’s universe but wasn’t a sequel to Ninja Scroll :D

Yeah that had some pretty gory shit in it too. That English dub rapes my earballs.

True, however if they do have a timed exclusivity deal with MS, they’ll have to wait that out before doing anything else with the IP, which is sad. I hope they realize how much money their game could make on Steam alone. Uh, minus 30% per unit.

Sounds good.

There’s a history of this sort of thing, it’s what Epic did with the original Gears of War, however they handed it over to People Can Fly, who did one of the most piss-poor porting jobs of any game ever. Which I found particularly amazing, as the game used Unreal 3, and all the assets were *already* set up for running…

I’m glad you feel somehow superior, but before you go blowing yourself, I’d like you to know that I’ve worked in the game industry as a developer for a decade, and I contract as an industry analyst for two market research firms. So, with all due respect (none), I know a lot more about this shit than you. I invite you…

I remember seeing Akira back in 89’ when it hit the US on VHS, I think I was 9 years old. For the longest time that was the goriest, scariest thing I’d ever seen.

Until I discovered zombies.

I’m just as old! I’ve totally seen Angel Cop. I found it rather tame, actually. >_>

I’m assuming it’s a timed exclusive because Microsoft tends to release almost all their Xbox titles, except Halo 3-on and the last several Gears of War titles, on PC. at some point or another.

I also assume that Microsoft isn’t fucking stupid, and wouldn’t be willing to deprive itself of a fair percentage of sales to…

Awesome, thanks! Somehow I missed this trailer.

That was crazy!
