@OdessaSteppa Of course they are going to do what they can to stop from games being sold used. They aren't punishing you for buying it used they are thanking you for buying it new. Used sales they see no profit which means the developer can not continue to develop games without it. I too am not a huge fan of the online pass when it comes to playing games online but for single player oriented games who cares? Go QQ somewhere else guy.
@singleandlovinit we had more games being imported from asia. the lack of rpg's and eastern games makes me sad. FFXIII was crap. Their were a few 360 exclusive asian RPG's like Lost Odyssey and Last Something... but I want more.
@lazerbyte also don't be so mad bro! You will be able to be just as lazy as all the XBOX users when Sony releases the PS4 and all it's Kinect like capabilities! No more being jelly for you Mr. Grumpy pants! ^_^
@lazerbyte the cloud saving is late I agree but most of this update is free to all users regardless of whether they have a gold account or not.
But the PS3 is so ahead of its time right? What with that cross game chat it's got going on. Oh wait... is that the Vita I'm thinking about? IT IS!! A hand held console out performing its Blu Ray counterpart. Also the cloud storage on the PS3 is only for the ppl who have PSPlus which is a waste of money unless of you buy every single downloadable game and theme you can with your "discount". Alot of ppl boast that free online gaming is the way to go but if you did pay a fee the experience would be far better. I have a PS3 and I still go back to my XBOX because its a better experience for me. Personal preference is a hell of a thing. Now go back to commenting somewhere where you aren't sounding like a douche.
for anyone that is interested there are some videos on youtube about this from i believe a PAX East showing. 45 minute demonstration broken up in to 5 video's. I liked watching them all the way through cause its really nice to see a small company getting so excited about their product. It's really gratifying to see. Also this game looks like what Peter Molyneux wanted Fable to look like. And here is the link to the video. Enjoy!
@superklye Actually when someone is buying the game used whoever the company is that made the game gets to see $0 profit on that purchase so the online pass is their defense against the growing used market. I don't necessarily agree with it but I do like playing games and buying games new supports those companies so future products can be made.
See some stupid alien get curbstomped in the latest Mass Effect 3 trailer
