Nah, i think they just like people actually paying for their products.

Dont take it personally....

Valve- amazing games, they are always doing something new and innovating in more areas than just gameplay. They came onto the scene with the revolution called Half life and fallowed up with one of the greatest games ever made, Half life 2. then they did it again with portal, not to mention they made the best coop game ever and two of the greatest multiplayer FPS games ever, TF2 and CCS

Blizzard-They made THE e-sport with starcraft and fallowed it up with the second e-sport, starcraft 2. They are the creators of the biggest cult/alternate reality in history that shows no signs of slowing down with 11.5 million subscribers strong. not to mention warcraft and diablo.

Rockstar-sure, GTA4 is overated.... but red dead isnt and LA noire is looking to be the citizen kane of gaming jr. they also started this whole open world trend that has just recently settled down with the revolutionary GTAIII. ive got more.

yes? no? i hope this doesnt sound to dumb or preachy.

thoughts?

I really cant understand the blind love that valve and blizzard get, they trully have the most committed fanboys in the industry.

When you look at their actual ouput this gen, its pretty thin to say the least.

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"] I like my 360, although I'm primarily a PC gamer, but I'd buy a PS3 atm without thinking over a 360. It offers so much more. I understand why people want a 360, just not sure why its doing so well vs the PS3 (assuming we put aside the current PSN woes)blue_hazy_basic

I have a ps3 too, and it happens to be home to my favourite game of this gen, but all in all , i dont really see how it offers so much more, especially to the average consumer ( for me personally blu-ray hasnt really been worth the extra cost)

Fair enough, i thought the gamecube was far and away the best console last gen, i guess theres no accounting for personal taste....

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"]*scratches head* why is the 360 selling so well atm?blue_hazy_basic

hmmm... i dont know, maybe because its a fantastic console with a superb library, and a great online system.

Stepping outside teh console wars can so wonders for your sense of perspective, you know.

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"] Yes because i couldn't stand playing that game for more than five hours. What i don't do is i don't tell people they are delusional for liking it, and I don't tell people it's overrated because it's console exclusive. I think the flaw is in your logic.ChubbyGuy40

kids nowadays.... accept your ownage.. and shrink away please....

Or some people thought it was crappy game and you can't stand to see your precious series that hasn't aged since the 90s get low review scores. Game sucked, get over it. Get off your high horse.

Lolz - i think ff13 is much MUCH worse than the witcher.. where does that leave you?

[QUOTE="mijkil"]

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"] No..

Critical reception = quality

Gamers praise = quality

Check out the user scores, check out the critical reception people agree that it's a quality game and it's loved by many.

Then you come along and say it's utter garbage and people only pretend to like it because it's a PC exclusive.

You're welcome to your opinion, but don't tell others what to think.

GeneralShowzer

thanks... ill happily stick with my opinion... you stick with your deluison.....

What delusion ?

Or is it just you calling people that don't think the same as you delusional.
