"I'll never truly understand art."
I don't get it.
The sequence is a shining example of why I will never accept Treyarch's "FUCK YEAH! WAR! HARDCORE! BADASS!" approach to Infinity Ward's near-reverence for the sacrifices and grueling situations that soldiers go through. MW2 will remain the last Activision game I buy until Bungie's next title.
@Simas: I don't think that anyone can really dispute your point after Iraq.
As a Mac gamer who's had San Andreas on his computer for years, I can't help but say "buh?"
@EnigmaNemesis: Whether or not you accept is at truth or spin is up to you, but in the Special Edition content for Alan Wake, the developers specifically stated that canceling the PC version freed them from the ordeal of having to develop the game to be compatible with all of the different possible hardware setups…
@GhostRaven: Some games are great because of the amazing community and the content that comes from it (LittleBigPlanet). Some games are great because of a fantastic story and atmosphere (Alan Wake). If you're implying the latter is worthless because the former is "better," you're wrong.
@Kevek90: Imagine if they simplified and polished the gameplay of Max Payne, then made it very intense and scary. Mix in an EXCELLENT story and atmosphere, and you've got this game. Absolutely worth your money. I still don't regret buying the collector's edition.
@DeannaCallidice: Absolutely. It's a good place to pick up games that I meant to pick up when the price dropped, but forgot about. Saints Row 2, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts, Red Faction Guerrilla, and Raiden Fighters Aces are all great values at their current prices.
@Viper:
Psychonauts was a day 1 purchase on the Xbox for me. Even though the price dropped twenty dollars a couple of weeks later, I had no regrets. If anyone that matters in the decision-making process reads this, just know that I will make the same commitment to this one, no questions asked.
@RockyRan: Where did you find Just Cause 2 for $25?!?
YEEEESSSSS.
@RockyRan: Considering that they removed LAN support, of all things, I really don't see how anyone could argue with you.
*sniff*
Reading this is like seeing Linux users complain that Microsoft has the market locked down. You want traction, entice your customers with things that Steam can't offer.
I see everyone's Activision boycott is going well. I'm sticking by my guns.
There really, really needs to be an Elder Scrolls game that consolidates the entire continent into one MASSIVE free-roaming experience. I miss Morrowind.
@Fecal-Lord: So encouraging to see that I'm not the only one who immediately thought of this. Kudos to you, sir. ^_^
@Smiley Massacre: Feels like more of a biker mentality, which is pretty punk if you ask me. I think they're going for more of a punk rock attitude more than a punk rock style.
