Not really excited for Titanfall. I'm more excited to pick up my Xbox One sometime this year with DR3 as that's the main game I want for it. I have somewhat grown tired of shooters as of late so Titanfall really doesn't appeal to me too much.
I got tired of the conferences. They're always underwhelming. I usually DVR them then just look at what is important after. So, in reality, Nintendo doing this has no affect on me. They'll have all their games there and everyone will see them and they'll get heavy coverage. I just don't have to watch a 90 minute speech with douchebag after douchebag hopping on stage this time. So, for me, it's nice. I applaud Nintendo and will be watching all the Nintendo Directs.
The game is horrible...why would anybody want it on the Wii U anyway. I'm playing through Monster Hunter Ultimate and Lego City Undercover. Why would I even bother with Aliens Colonial Marines?
So, essentially, you're going to review it before the issues are ironed out in the servers. Which essentially means that, when the issues with the servers are fixed (which will most likely be within a day or two), this review is void. Awesome, another pre-emptive shoddy review from Gamespot.
Every Console launch is lacking. In comparison, the Wii U launched better than both the PS3/360...and we're in heavy recession right now (way to fix it Obama). The Wii U games will come just as they always do after every launch.
"Is Strict DRM contributing to the decline of PC gaming?" Did GS really just say this? LOL, always knew they were anti PC. Glad to see they finally own up to it. Amazing because the PC is still the largest played gaming platform in the world and, on top of that, records the largest amount of revenue. 11 billion just last year alone (WoW was only 2 of that billion). The PC is getting bigger and bigger every year. And, on topic, DRM failed. It gets cracked almost immediately. Spore, Crysis, CoD4, etc etc. (all the million PC sellers are in my Sig) all sell millions of copies on PC. Yes, DRM sucks. Luckily it's on the decline and seems to be going out.
Big waste of money. Is anyone seriously having problems with HDD space? I mean, even with a 40gb HDD on the PS3 you can still delete installs anytime you want for the titles you aren't playing often. And considering that very very few titles on the PS3 (that have to install mandatory) have an install time of higher than 10 minutes I just don't see the problem. Most are between 5 and 8 minutes. DMC4 is an exception in that, well, Capcom really screwed up with it. But it's really the only title of it's kind. 20 minute install time? It's one of the very few titles to be over 10 minutes let alone around 20 minutes. But, anyway, my point is that it's a waste of money. I just don't see the point in spending so much on a slower HDD when the 40gb/60gb HDD is more than enough space and when it's just as easy to uninstall a game for the week or 3 weeks that you arent playing it and then waiting 5 minutes for it to intall and then play when you feel like playing it again. Anyway, kind of a wasted article IMO. Guess they got bored.
Terranup16: "My 360 exploded, and 29/31 friends of mine who have/had 360s have had serious enough issues where the 360 has exploded, or broken down entirely (beyond repair). The other two just got 360s for Xmas. That also fails to account for those of my friends who got their 360s replaced, and had issues w/the replacements w/in a week (b/c they're just refurbished lemons)." It's fairly obvious that you're lying. You're posting on a videogame board claiming that you have 31 friends...please. You don't have any friends and you never had an Xbox 360. Grow up. Yes, i'm on the videogame board as well...but i, unlike you, am not claiming something as stupid as you just said. I've got 10-15 immediate friends around my college, about 8 or so of them have 360's and neither one has had a problem. Does that mean that none have had problems? No, of course not. Everyone knows of the 5% defective rate the 360 had at launch. That doesn't change the games that it has though or the fact that MS is fixing 360's for free. Wasn't any different with the PS2, people still had DRE's...i being one of them. Ended up getting a slim PS2 when my original one busted. You act as if consoles are completely invincible...they aren't. Some people don't take care of them and that's how it happens. You claim your Xbox 360 blew up? It's kind of a coincidence then that you bring this up now...considering the fact that so many Xbox 360 exclusives are on this list. Are you having trouble accepting it? Seriously, grow up already. Nobody believes the lying.
