I neither own or ever intended to buy that game so curious as to why you made that reply about what Ubisoft did or did not do. Ignore this post as it was reply to one made in error.

I think was around 9 listed above, mostly third party but still missed the specified target dates and therefore still count. I consider 9 to be a large amount that did not hit the promised release date targets.

What you said does not stop what I said from being true.

It's not like they had high requirements to meet, very limited amount of games for example set to be released during that period and still a huge amount failed to come out in time. But I suppose it still counts as keeping a promise if set the expectations low and reach that low target.

Seems like a system that is highly flawed and open to abuse in that case. I am glad I don't work in the US if that's how it is there.

It is the scale of consequence that was imposed by Turtle Rock that would be illegal in Europe I believe (well certainly in the UK where I am as it is since it's classed as automatic unfair dismissal meaning Josh would win if went to court/tribunal here), it is not the principle that there could be consequences…

You would still have legal responsibilities and a requirement to follow certain procedures, you could not just fire him on they accusation alone, the employee has for example also the right to defend themselves prior to the dismissal, the right to ask for written explanation and many other rights.

They show the US has a legal system that is broken, a nation with the wrong priorities and one that is behind Europe in such matters. An employee should have legal rights and an employer should have legal responsibilities. This is how it works in most of Europe and that is how it should be in general but this is not…

Not sure about the Escapist if he could sue them for deformation of character through purposeful misrepresentation. In EU I believe he could, in the US I don't know. The US seems like a backward nation regarding employee legal rights and employer legal responsibilities so I would not be surprised if they are also…

Maybe in the US but Europe is far more enlightened in this regard, employee's are protected from being fired on whims or from false accusations including misrepresentation which both were what happened to Josh. Employment law in the US must be a pile of shit if employee's do not have the same rights and protections…

It would not have made any difference in Josh Olin's case, they fired him without any investigation or review into what he said outside of reading the misrepresentation of the tweet by the shitty writers on Escapist etc. If they had done one ounce of investigation they would of seen it was taken out of context by the…

AC3 ran fine on my old system, runs fine also on my new one but given my new one is a major upgrade that's hardly surprising. It was AC4 rather than AC3 that caused me some grief on my old system, AC4 seemed a little unoptimized. With Watch Dog's from what I hear the game is like others have said, a poor quality…

It's kind of surprising just how many developers and publishers underestimated how long it would require to create the PS4/Xbone games. I just hope the extra time many are taking will lead to those many being better quality and less problems than the ones released so far in general. On the plus side though next year…

...and I was jesting. I don't think you needed to point out you were being ironic, it is not like I was having a go at you for your opinion. I thought the cheeky smiley face would of given that away. :)

Can you just list the pro's and cons in the box at the bottom instead of telling people whether they should or should not play/buy games even if is just meant as advice. At minimum I find it a little condescending that someone thinks they should tell people what they should or should not buy or play. Maybe you could…

Hasn't anyone made a Fappy Birds yet? Seems too obvious to have not been done already.

Imagine the outcry if had pictures of large woman vs skinny one proclaiming only fit good looking girls should apply. Double standards /food4thought... >:)

Okay, fair enough. It just sounded to me the game ticked the some of the same boxes as most adventure games from puzzles being straight forward, linearity and length of story. The protagonist looked interesting to me in what I have seen so far in clips and such plus story sounds like a great idea for story. Maybe I am…

You seem to blast the intelligence aspect of the puzzles yet given you classed it as an adventure game...do you know what other game has almost no intelligence required to continue the plot and pass the puzzles? The Walking Dead which is extremely highly praised as an adventure game.
