Love pirates, hunting for buried treasure, exploring islands, and sailing on old wind sail ships collecting booty. I have to try this one out. A must for me. Hope they patch the glitchs they talk about.
To put an idea out to get feedback on what people think is one thing. OK a gamer has a right to say they don't agree, and to give feedback and make suggestions. But in no case, does it give them the right to be a criminal and use harassment on a person. I have played many of games and I'm getting older 46, (yes you kids will be older and gaming one day too). So sometimes I have trouble getting through a level here and there, and I don't mind trying again and again. But if I have to try 25 times and still cannot make the level. I think, Yes it would be nice to skip to the end of that action in that case. Like in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and the pendulum swinging you had to get though it took me 2 days to get though that part (and that can be a little bit of a game killer). Kids don't understand that some people's eyes don't focus and register as fast as most. So there for our reaction is never going to be on par. I have always had that problem and it has gotten worst with age. You can say to put on EASY all you want and I usually do, if I cannot play normal. I have learned that EASY doesn't mean slower. EASY in almost all cases gets you less points and extras then as you would in a normal or hard level. So sometimes it doesn’t help at all. EASY with less points and extras doesn't help you level up and doesn't help you get the upgrades.
All I think she is trying to do is provide help for the people that have a handicap for the action that is being performed. I always thought if you tried an action say 15 times then and only then should the game give you an option to fast forward to next action. This would help with games that have glitches not patch in yet too. Like the flame throwing in Overlord Minions. I think that would make it more of a level playing field for all, because who but a handicapped person is going to try 15 times. Lots of different games, like bowling, have handicaps so all can enjoy. By making the gamer try the action several times, they are not tempted or able to just click though the game. They would at least have to put the time in on it. 15 tries would be time consuming and would give the person a chance to fight to complete the level. We want to be able to do it on our own. But then if the person cannot get pass the level they should be able to bypass it only after putting in the time. I don't think that would take anything away from any other gamer. And it would give that person a chance to enjoy their game. And that is what seems to be forgotten in all this is. Games are for fun and entertainment for all to enjoy. The gaming industry is definitely not gearing games for criminals to play and harass game makers.
I thought it was an informative article, not sure what everyone is complaining about. I very much agree with universal plug ins. USB is pretty universal they are on the PS3 also, so that would be a great complement to it. Yes I do want to hear about things like that. And the sillyness of the menus that is something I would think everyone would want to know about. I think there is alot of new R & D tech out there but I don't think anyone has found the golden egg just yet. I'm waiting for that one. When it comes around Mark please let us know about it.
Built my New Rig in Aug, Been playing alot of Minecraft on it, Great games this year The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, Fable III, Dragon Age II, The Sims Medieval, Tropico 4, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Yes looking forward to Guild Wars 2, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Mass Effect 3, Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm, Torchlight II, Game of Thrones. And I've been waiting for Alan Wake will it ever come to PC? Have much love for my Playstation 3 also. I know I will always have new PC's - - not so sure about new consoles. If a Playstation 4 comes out I will consider it.
Yes, it is a sexy motherboard and I like the solid state drive (maybe for my next one), I do get excited about the colors and how Mech it looks. Your rig is sweet. Keep building and keep up the good work. That is the beauty of building your own you get to choose what is inportant to you to overkill on. And knowing the power you have in your rig is awesome. I get excited about the new Rig I just built, I'm a 45 year old grandmother and I always wanted to build my own computer and I finally did. How do you like this. I have a sexy motherboard (it is older but all I need for now wanted to get my feet wet) also with graphics to kill. My next build it with a Thermaltake 10 GT- need more money for that one.
