Which is a nice was of saying: "The Wii U is a better machine than the current generation of consoles, but less powerful than what we expect out of the 'real' next generation of console hardware".

Right?

Good to see that Square Enix still knows how to make a wildly obtrusive HUD.

So they took the worst enemy in UC3 and spun it out into multiplayer DLC?

No thanks.

But then again, I say the same thing to all of Uncharted's multiplayer. If ever there was a game fiction that didn't justify a deathmatch based spinning out, it's Uncharted.

Go watch the credits to GoW3- Epic China is listed. Epic even had one of their own people over there managing the studio for quite some time, though I fail to recall where I read about it. Maybe Gamasutra?

Started as an asset farm sort of studio to my understanding, and now they are releasing their first internal game. No?

@Kbb81tn

I can certainly agree to that, but I'm still unclear as to why you decided to invoke Call of Duty comparative sales into the conversation as though that somehow supports your point. It just came off like trolling they way it reads...

@Kbb81tn

Not sure what commending a studio's commitment to post game support has to do with it's volume of sales in comparison to another game by another studio.

Or are you just trolling?

Thanks for assuming I have the brain function of a drunk 4 year old.

I also understand the concept of: paying the people responsible for making the game in the first place, not just those who sell it to me the cheapest.

The only way those prices are decent is due to the sale. I've seen all of those games new, for less, elsewhere at one point or another. Just because I can't afford to buy every game at $60 doesn't mean I have to screw the developer over in order to enjoy their work. I can wait until it affordable (while still being new) to buy it.

No need to feed into the business model that's killing physical media and making it impossible for smaller publishers to compete.

@Brendan Drain

100% Agreed. It read so naturally to me I had to click on the link. I just assumed there was a venture capitalist group with some serious nerd cred out there...

I think you mean 'Venture Partners', not 'Venture Brothers'...

@docstrange

Strike that, $27 is another used price, but it's still 29.99 elsewhere.
