It's completely disrespectful, and shows no concern or care for the person who just died and their family. The only reason anyone would do this is for attention. Especially since pepsiman didn't even know the person who died.

I don't feel it's disrespectful, it's not like he was talking ill of him, but I didn't read every post. I just view it as awkward.


Besides it was just one part of his post. He talked about his uncle dying, along with his classmate, I just assume he was having a bad day and wanted to talk about it, not make a quick topic to bask in comments of "I'm sorry to hear that."

If someone dies, it's generally considered to be rude to run to your internet friends and tell everyone about it. Show some fucking respect.

I don't know if that'll get ported. If I were you I'd wait to see first unless you really really wanna play that game now.

The large amount of my disappointment from consoles stemmed from my PS3, which in my opinion was the best hardware last gen(because Demon's Souls was the only good game in the earlier years that I even remember and still care about to this day). Now it only makes a good blueray player that I occasionally play Demon's Souls on.




I'd buy something with wii capababilities for twice the price of the current consoles if it had the best games on it. If it pumped out RE4 after RE4, followed by games like Stardew Valley or games of that quality regularily. I mean why do you think people felt burned by the N64? Because it's capabilities or because it's lackluster lineup after first party?

The poor lineup of N64 games was because of it's hardware limitations.

indeed, too vastly different that they couldn't possible put games on both the n64 and ps1. Also why the Wii U failed to have any 3rd party support. But that's a different story with the differences between the those consoles and potentially anything in the future.


Truth be told most ps4, pc, and xbox1 games with a little work can be ported to 360 and ps3. It has to be a huge difference for hardware limitations to come into play these days.

I really wish Nintendo would just make a powerful (by current console standards at least) home console, with no gimmicks, and just put out some quality games on it.

Or just forget trying to make their own console and just make some quality games. That aren't too kiddy to play when other people are around.

They tried that, it was called the gamecube, some would argue not Nintendo's strong point. It had some decent games, powerful hardware that made multiplatorm titles the best on it, but overall it was a very lacking console in terms of a vast library like that of the PS2.



If they do a power race now they might as well shoot themselves in the foot. The market is tight and both Sony/microsoft already have a hold on those type of gamers who obsess about latest graphics. It means spending more more and more into graphic budgets for their games so they couldn't focus on the gameplay and they'll be just like every other shit triple A publisher. They would probably end up 3rd place, below microsoft, due to their inexperience in online play as well.


They'd be better off doing a deal with any other company than going that route.

I don't have a camera to share, and although I found a random picture of me online I have trouble getting to it.

This is the very reason I can't stand consoles anymore. Rather than telling you play our console we have the most fun an innovate games! Instead it's play our console, we'll have 4k games at 60fps, who cares if they are mostly shit!


I want substance, I want new things even though I also want old things. And I feel like the majority of the console market doesn't wanna sell us that because it's risky to do anything other than to sell the same game/console with improved graphics. I think the console market needs to take a huge hit.

...then get a fucking Nintendo Switch ffs

I will, probably be a day 1 purchase for me.

GEARS OF WAR

Shit, brainless third-person shooter that is completely inferior to Mass Effect in every way.

And Mass Effect is an rpg shooter, heavily focusing on the rpg part. Comparing the two is pretty pointless. It would be like comparing Mass Effect to Mass Effect 2, which became more of a brainless shooter(not gears level but imo Mass Effect 2 was fricken horrible in contrast to what Mass Effect was).
