Re: Pokémon Go Makes Nintendo More Valuable Than Sony

DietSmile

Pretty sad considering nintendo really had very little to do with the game aside from owning a small part of it. It's a crash fest too. I play for maybe an hour a day and I have to restart it at least 3 times when it freezes or crashes. Bottom line is my vita and PS4 get used daily, and i can't remember the last time I played a game on wiiu.

Re: Review: I Am Setsuna (PS4)

Glad it's 30 hours, I was a but miffed at the price tag for a traditional JRPG, thinking it would only be 10-15 hours based on the youth of today having such short attention spans.

Re: Review: Ghostbusters (PS4)

DietSmile

I consider the game from 2009ish to be the third movie. It had the original cast, a decent plot, and was fun to play/watch. As far as this "reboot" goes, I think it's pretty funny that after 5 years of absolutely terrible franchise reboots, we decide to write it off before it comes out and are considered sexist jerks. I think the movie sucks for the same reason I would think the movie would suck if they had done a reboot with an all male cast consisting of Seth Rogen and his group of stoners; it's just not the right fit for Ghostbusters.

Re: Review: Resident Evil 5 (PS4)

I don't really remember the controversy around the fact that you're killing Africans, and i think bringing it up is an attempt to justify lowering the score. And this game for all it's faults is 10x better than Evil Within.

Re: Fallout 4 Mods Don't Sound Too Hot on PS4

DietSmile

At this point you're really not allowed to complain anymore. If you own a playstation system, and you've played an open world bethesda game on it, and you STILL bought fallout 4, you set yourself up for failure.

Re: Destiny's Rise of Iron Is a $30 Expansion

DietSmile

Wow, really milking the teats dry on this one. I was dumb enough to buy TTK when my friends were "so pumped" to get back into destiny....and we all stopped playing two weeks later. Definitely passing on the MMO genre in general from now on. FPS added doesn't help make it better.

Re: Bethesda to Bring Prey 2, The Evil Within 2, and Wolfenstein 2 to E3 2016

DietSmile

Please don't waste our time with a sequel to evil within, that game was horrible. Story was terrible, controls and framerate sucked, and there were set pieces and battles quite literally ripped straight from RE4. It's like someone asked Mikami to make a unique game, and he just took an alpha build of RE4 and had M Night Chimichanga write a quick story while he was stoned.

Re: Just How Bad Is Fallout 4: Far Harbor on PS4?

DietSmile

@get2sammyb I'm gonna have to call BS on the PC version being poorly optimized. I've played through with several mods and tweaks and have had zero problems for 100+ hours, and the expansion has run just fine on ultra for me and several friends.

Re: Round Up: TMNT: Mutants in Manhattan Gets Deep Panned by Critics

DietSmile

No way, a beat em up got low ratings?! It's almost as if the formula went stale! I'm sure everyone will jump to platinum's defense since people have this weird obsession with that other generic beat em up, bayonetta. I just find their games to be repetitive to the point that once you've played an hour of one of them, you've expereinced the extent of what it has to offer. They get boring fast.

Re: Round Up: Overwatch PS4 Reviews Are Ridiculously Positive

DietSmile

Have none of the reviewers ever played TF2? It's the same damn game, just instead of original characters they have copy pasta'd characters from other games. It's not worth $60 if you have a PC capable of running TF2. Sure, everyone is playing it now and singing it's praises, but we all know in 2 weeks it'll be barren. Remember The Division?

Re: Hideo Kojima Modelling New Studio on Media Molecule

DietSmile

@AyeHaley Nintendo hasn't learned anything. They have a guy who ran out of good ideas 20 years ago still helming most major projects. It's a bunch of old japanese men trying to run a games company, and it's going to blow up in their faces when NX bombs.

Re: There's More to Kojima Productions' Logo Than Meets the Eye

DietSmile

@themcnoisy It's good konami has the keys. If they would've let kojima keep being himself, he would've bankrupted them with all of his delays, excessive production costs, and missing of deadlines. Everyone seems to blame konami for the fact that kojima has cost them hundreds of millions of dollars over the years that they'll never get back, and sales don't make up for it either.

Because i see kojima as a talented but flawed games creator who's trying to become a b-list hollywood director, i'm often berated for my opinion, but that's what i see out of it.

Re: Wait, People Thought Final Fantasy VII Remake and Kingdom Hearts III Were Releasing This Year?

DietSmile

KH3 would've been done last year if they'd pull their heads out of their butts, stick with an engine, and finish it. Instead, they seem content trying to milk every last drop out of making remixes and remasters before they release 3. Not only was i not expecting it this year, i wouldn't be surprised if they delayed it until PS5 is out so they can ride the remaster train again.

Re: People Are Already Playing Uncharted 4 on PS4

DietSmile

Wow, hey, great job ND. Clearly the game didn't need to be pushed back if every retailer already has their copies. If they learn anything from this experience, i hope it's how to properly make a game without delaying it 4 times.
