I don't get it. I'm not calling EA a good company but I don't see while bundling games to increase sales is wrong... Why are you jabbing them with something like this when their are perfectly valid reasons to hate them for?
I just hope Bethesda remembers you can't beat World of Warcraft be being World of Warcraft. Guild Wars, Rift, The Old Republic, LotR Online, Aion, City of Heroes (although it did OK, probably due to a different target audience), Warhammer Online and Age of Conan have all told us that. Do something different with this MMO and you will have my full attention, Bethesda. Otherwise no thanks.
3DS is really a gimmick more than anything to me. I played it and I can't keep the 3D in it just gives me a headache. I don't like Sony all that much but if I was to get a portable system I would probably get a Vita. Also, just for the record, the Wii sold 50% more than the PS3 and 360, but it was still a pretty bad system. Sales don't make a system good.
@pokemonblackftw I won’t lie, I have a Wii. I've put a lot of hours into Skyward Sword. But really there are just so few games that's on the Wii that would make me want to play something different besides Skyward Sword (I'm not even saying better games, just different). No More Heroes comes to mind, that's about it. SMG2 isn't all the fun it’s cracked up to be; it’s a great game but nothing special. Factor this in with the fact that GameCube was also a load of sh*t and chips I'm betting that Nintendo is going to keep up with their consistency of publishing complete garbage. Maybe the Wii U will surprise me, but I doubt it. I won't hate the system if it turns out to be good but I don't expect it to be, and I'll stick to the legitimate systems (I.E. Xbox and Playstation).
@pokemonblackftw Ya it can do all that sh*t. But all that fancy gear is going to make it cost much more, it’s going to weigh probably 3-4 times a 360 controller does (not to say it will strain, but it will still annoy), it’s going to be huge as fudge, the whole design of the controller is terrible, even taking out the issue of the unbelievably huge and terrible size (the basic upside-down U shape is there for a reason, it gives a place to put your hands. Without the extensions on the sides to grab it’s going to be awkward to hold). Also, as an avid MMO player the idea of using a touch screen to play makes me want to vomit. HOWEVER, I have been wrong before (prime example, I thought the Wii was going to be amazing). Maybe this won’t be the pile of garbage the Wii was with its delayed responses, terrible graphics, poor processing power, lack of a functional online service, terrible library with a total absence of third party software (or at least any that was worth a damn), and the fact it took four years to make the system's motion controls actually work (with the Wii Motion Plus).
I love how people complain about the game without even playing, when actually it's really fun. And yes, the grind is still there, but the story distracts from it and makes the leveling actually pretty fun to do.
