The bill never should have passed in the first place. It was more about them and less about us. It was just too bloated. And after they failed to increase taxes on people making over $200,000 a year, they had no way to even begin to pay for it. So hopefully they can repeal this thing and pass a better, smarter bill. We still need reform just not THAT thing. And even if they don't repeal it, it'll collapse under its own weight eventually.And we'll just start from square one.

Are you talking about the CBO number with regard to repeal costing more? The estimate in which the doc fix was taken out and voted on later? The one in which 10 years of taxation pays for six years of benefits? The one that double counts Medicare cuts? That one? Just curious.

[QUOTE="Microsoft1234"] calling RDR a rehash says it all. haters gonna hate.[QUOTE="6matt6"][QUOTE="GnR-SLaSh"]

Getting sick of RDR hate purely because it's popular. Grow up, it's a good game - fact.

The game being defined as good by EVERY credible source may be a fact (haven't read them all), but that doesn't make the game being good a fact. Subtle difference. Also, the popularity of Disney World has noimpact on whether or not I or anyone else feels that it is indeed a good tourist location. As such, this whole thing with facts regarding reviews would be more like saying that it is not a fact that Disney World is a fun tourist location. You have again missed the subtle difference and are addressing something different than 6matt6 was talking about (if I understand him correctly).

I have the game sitting on my shelf, it is probably the next one I'm going to play. I've actually been looking forward to it. Like the other guy (I believe), we aren't arguing that the game isn't good, just debating what facts are.

Mass Effect 2 has Yvonne Strahotski. Therefore, instant win. Nothing else need be said.

[QUOTE="Bread_or_Decide"][QUOTE="Heirren"]

Na, can't agree with that. The original Star Wars in '77--along with ESB--recieved plenty of bad reviews. Guess Star Wars was a flop, by your logic.

Heirren

Yes, really. I figure that was the only way to put things into perspective.

Does anything in System Wars really require perspective? You realize that nothing here is all that important, right?

Just wondering, but are you saying that the rule does not existin system wars thatnot meeting hype = flop? Again, it really doesn't matter, I'm just curious.

Lot of people in denial here.

Lemmings were hyping RAGE as a graphics king and they were also making a lot out of the ps3's alleged issues with framerates.

Focus on the crash comment all you want, lemmings have indeed largely neglected to comment on the fact that all 3 versions seem very similar in regards to both graphics and fps.

I however, will voice my disappointment right now. Will the PC version really feature little but improved resolution and AA? will the hardware requirements reflect this? I know they won't.

Filthybastrd

Maybe they are focusing on the crash because that is the part that the TC highlighted? Just a thought.

As for the crash itself, if you (TC) can prove that the PC and PS3 versions have never crashed, then you have a point. If you can't, it could just be bad luck that the 360 version failed when it did.

Surely people can come up with better ownage than this.

Its couldn't care less seriously read it out loud and think about what you are saying...

Retro/Nostalgia isn't BS, even new IP's have little easter eggs and references to older games/films/music that inspired them, as long as it isn't a complete rehash its fine. I think a lot of the issue here is many of you aren't old enough to remember this gaming heritage, insulting it just makes you look bad though (eg. Half Life bashing, you bashers have no concept how much the first game did for SP shooters).

SapSacPrime

Thank you, it's good to see other people point out the "couldn't" thing. You wouldn't think that it would be that hard to figure out.

And I suppose all new IPs are amazing? As long as the games are good, I don't really see the problem.

Cerberus_Legion

Yep, pretty much this. And it is "couldn't care less". Why is that so hardto figure outfor people?

I really enjoyed ME2, but I didn't feel like I needed a cigarette afterward or anything. That is a really odd and personal question you are asking and I'm not sure if it is appropriate.

Oh yeah, the guy/chick above me reminded meabout Borderlands. I agree, that game doesn't get old!

Here on System Wars, flop refers to score. Doesn't matter how well it sold, if it scored below the hype level, it flopped. However, from what I read, you make a valid point if the term flop is removed. Regardless, it will be getting a purchase from me soon (probably after I finish FFXIII) and I hope it continues to sell.

Edit: I see you have many posts under your belt, so you probably already know this. Therefore, it is more for newish people who may not know.

I don't have time to play all of the games that 360 has to offer. I still have to get FFXIII, Bioshock 2, Modern Warfare 2, Alan Wake, soon to be Red Dead Redemption, and it seems like there are others that I am leaving out. Why on earth would I buy another console when one provides more games than I can play?
