Fair enough, it probably is generic enough. I just get the feeling that people think it’s going to be the wild west when it comes to mods on XB1 Fallout 4. Microsoft is going to lock this shit down hardcore, moreso than Steam Workshop. They are letting outside “software” onto their secure ecosystem, you know it is…

Yeah, I know. But, you can just install mods on your PC. On the XB1, it will have to be approved by Microsoft - they aren’t going to let just anyone put up content that is downloadable over XBox Live to an XB1. That would be a nightmare trying to contain potential hacks. And given they will be keeping close watch on…

Nintendo is veeeery aggressive on potential copyright issues though. Legally they would likely be ok, but that doesn’t mean they don’t go all C&D on them. Nor does it mean they would let it go and risk it.

I know you are joking, but I wouldn’t expect copyright violating mods to be allowed through the approval process.

Not trying to be insulting. I get some just don’t like rare-ish meat. Of course it tastes good, but the issue is you don’t really get the flavor or tenderness difference that makes a filet worth the price difference. You can cook a decent thick sirloin to medium well that tastes just as good and spend half as much.…

That sounds frustrating.

Yep, I have a relative that uses “allergy” as a substitute for “I don’t like it”. He makes a point to explain all of his food issues (some of which, like fat are a problem since he has stints and a heart attack) to anyone that can hear him. I swear people in a three table area know his dinner has as little fat as…

Yeah, I saw that and thought “so you are giving me more of the great gameplay I want and cutting back on the nonsense story bullshit and endless conversations I do not want”. The one thing that did make me go “bummer” is apparently they cut way back on the traditionally awesome boss fights. That was a complaint of…

Oh come on with this “culture” bullshit. There are great examples of storylines that come out of Japan. Ni No Kuni is an example of how it is done right, along with many, many others. Not liking Metal gear story is not due to an insufficiently “broad” mind. You are not showing how cultured you are by saying Metal Gear…

To be honest, I don’t think anyone understands it. I think a whole bunch of people like playing the games and don’t want to admit they don’t get it either. Can you seriously sit through the ending sequence of MGS2 and then call someone “stupid” for not “getting it”?

Come on, the “best” video game story? Are you drunk? Maybe the “best” Metal Gear storyline, but that’s a really low bar. There have been a TON of really good storylines in games from both sides of the ocean, but stop it with this Kojima fanboy shit. He makes great playing games, but his storylines are little more than…

I agree, this series really shouldn’t be completely missed. Sure, some iterations were not that good, but as a whole they are really good playing games. And that comes from a guy that absolutely abhors Kojima’s storytelling. He is desperately in need of an editor and his storytelling is like an 8 year old telling a…

I don’t play the Madden games (at least not for several years), but ...

Yes, I know about their attention to detail, which is why it sticks out. I know they notice if you are close, it’s on one of the videos - but if you were to airlift a person (or a jeep as he does in the video) in the middle of the desert that would be visible for miles - like the whole base should see it. It’s still a…

They HAVE to play test them. You cannot upload a level until you beat it legit. That’s how they are filtering the impossible ones.

You tell me to “Just stop” because MY argument is nonsensical? Did you even proofread your post? I don’t even think you finished typing some parts of it.

It wasn’t causing that big of a problem for the other devs to have to drop the resolution that far. Are you suggesting that Kojima’s team perhaps isn’t as good as the other devs churning out most other games that didn’t have to reduce the number of pixels by half (720p is 1/2 the pixels of 1080p, 900p is 3/4)? I was…

Because the previous 720p vs. 1080p is an obvious lack of optimization - that’s a BIG difference. Obviously they are capable, given the game is much, much closer in the final version. This was a very significant gap, way more than what less capable teams have been able to do at the same time period. The simple answer…

Lateral compression does cause the XB1 controllers to “creak” a bit, I noticed that as well. As long as it doesn’t break it’s fine for me though, just avoid squeezing it.

I love the 360 controllers, but the XB1 is still nice, and in some areas superior. The PS4 controllers have significant issues for me, the placement of the PS button. My thumbs slip sometimes in an intense game (like Bloodborne) resulting in me popping to the system menu bar - without pausing, which pretty much…
