This is what I don't understand about game developers these days... Tekken was fighting game ROYALTY... then you throw in stupid items and costumes, characters that don't make sense in the story whatsoever, and just like that your game sales plummet... it's not mystery, tekken sucks now lol
same can be said about soul calibur, namco lost it....
while the performance of the newer madcatz fightsticks is actually near identical in comparison to a hori... the life expectancy is absolutely a joke... my hori stick is going strong 2 years in, only had to replace 1 button, while the highest quality madcatz street fighter stick i got lasted only one year, if that...
Precisely... Blizzard is just getting annoying these days... I mean it was pretty obvious that the merger with Activision was because they intended on making console games down the road, which is fine, but bringing this crap up with D3? Just release the game, seriously... You already made us wait 12 years for the mediocreness that was Starcraft 2
eh... makes it kinda hard to understand whether the beef is between marvel and capcom, or just villains vs. heroes... then again i guess the story doesn't matter at all in a fighting game
I'm gonna have to agree with Mr. Bluth here... Companies can blame the big bad wolf Mr. Blizzard all they want for their misfortune, but the fact remains that if you make a good game, 9/10 times people will play it and support it...
Prime example, look at Guild Wars... Constantly growing player base, game has been F2P since launch, and Guild Wars 2 will be as well...
League of Legends, COMPLETELY free game with almost 2 million players... They make their money off of custom character skins because people love the game so much
i dont know of many completely free to play MMO's, but if you're willing to at least shell out the small amount of money to get a hold of theGuild Wars game then I recommend that over ANY other MMO out there, including WoW
