No, the thing that makes gaming unique - the interactivity - is the thing that inherently makes it an inferior storytelling medium. Never will a game be able to tell a story in the same way as a great novel or film. The necessity of gameplay dictates that the story will not flow as it would in a book or on a movie screen.
If Nintendo was so interested in abandoning single-player, then they wouldn't have cut multiplayer from Metroid Prime 3 and said that they felt that some games aren't built for multiplayer.
Seriously, go to hell. Paladins were meant to be viable in all three roles. They weren't meant to be healbots standing at the back of raids. If you recall correctly, Blizzard even admitted a couple years back at Blizzcon that having Pallies being delegated to the healers didn't fit their vision.
Since I have a DPS tree, I should be able to DPS well. It's Blizzard's damn fault for not fixing prot and ret that we've been reduced to nothing more than cowardly healers.
Someone needs to get on their knees and beg him to beg Capcom to give him the funding for Megaman Legends 3. It's a shame that it'll probably never get made.
Microsoft is apparently going to spend the rest of the conference showing a brief trailer for a game and then inviting the developers on stage to play a shitty demo. Bravo, Microsoft.
I went into this honestly expecting Microsoft to kick me ass-first on to the ground. Instead, I'm getting a shitty and underwhelming excuse for a press conference. This might be worse than the 2005 conference.
