because you can have copyright on a combination of facial features?

@GrayF0X786

you do understand the concept of sarcasm, right?

why'd she care? it's free publicity to be featured in a top game.

brutal murder? fine
boob? OMG THIS IS CORRUPTING THE CHILDREN AND RUINING OUR SOCIETY!

love the gameplay of course, but , i don't know, the story seems less.

in the original, it was all desorientation, trippy colours and just the human instinct of following orders, leading you to an everdescending spiral of madness and drugs.

i feel that just ''making a movie'' isn't that great a setting.
if the group later gets the phone calls and finds out about the whole hidden vigilante movement (51 blessings i think it was), that'd be cool, but if half the game is just making a snuff film, it's not as appealing to me.

@Gamer_4_Fun @Succumbus

all the points he raised were valid. after playing the original a couple of times, i could also breeze through some levels. it's called learning. also, running and gunning is what the gameplay is and was...

great that this game is getting more exposure, it certainly deserves it. also, hotline miami 2 is announced already, i can't wait.

just knowing that Microsoft intended to screw us over makes me feel like any future decisions might have these intentions still, i'll go for ps4.

also, people, please read this article and see how Microsoft is still enforcing draconic policies for indie games and really just downloadable games in general:

@abHS4L88 @blackrunie

it's based on both, otherwise my example would work and i'd be making the 9th generation console before any other people even get the 8th.

bullshit and you know it. Sony had it announced for the ps3 and psp, before the ps3 even launched.

asymmetrical multiplayer only means that one player can do more than others. it's been around forever.

i don't see how that disproves me saying it's a 7th generation console and a failure from a sales point of view.

*is going to be capable.
so you're bragging about things that it can't even do yet?

@abHS4L88 @blackrunie

didn't you read any of the other posts? specs are the ceiling, developer effort determines how close they can get.

all sounds like things that have been added as dlc to other games.

that's a non sequitur. it doesn't matter how much time is between releases, there's no direct relation, you're just claiming a correlation.
L4D2 came out only a year after the first one, yet definitely qualified itself as a full sequel.
