I hope that they come out with some good games ! As some folks mentioned below, the glitter and hype don't mean worthy titles. I think we all benefit from good games, it sparks new ideas and takes things in new directions if something good happens.
I have nothing against xbox , I'm sad I had to get rid of mine ( early gen, wouldn't read the disk, and really got to be annoying for me ). I love some of the PS4 titles and Nintendo is also doing well (I just picked up a switch) .
I love games on all, PC, PS4, Switch, handhelds (3ds, vita) so let's hope for a good year to come !
I think fan service is what kept this series alive. Based on the over $500.00 in DLC most entries have in this series , they know it as well. I will be interested to see how this new one does if they try to make it more 'serioes' without the sexy DLC, I have a feeling they will rethink that.
Looks like I'll be buying this yet again. I hope this does well enough to get a sequel. The community for this game is really great (game faq's has an awesome forum) and its one of the game communities that have remained helpful and friendly this long after release. I have it on PS4, PC and last gen (ps3 and 360).
If you have not tried it yet, I highly recommend it and I'll be happy to help out with questions/goodies when it comes out :)
They really started a down slide when they took over Think Geek and the stores became Pops are us. People want games and not a ton of other junk, the store by me is about 40% junk and 60% games, most sections have been reduced/eliminated to make way for all the pops and other crud.
I agree with some of the comments below, having a nice retro section would be nice, along with pricing that meets others. Their rewards offers are not what they used to be so unless you buy a LOT of used games, it's not really worth the investment.
