There's always lower!

Even lower than burning in Sun?

I hate to sound like a complete dick about the whole situation, but...
[spoiler=venting]YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAH!!! Now you know how I [tornado fang]ing feel whenever you make goddamned region-locked games for Xbox 360, assholes! /venting[/spoiler]

But seriously though, they just gave all of Japan a big middle finger. I highly doubt they'll make many games for it now. It's ironic that MGS V is gonna be on Xboned. $:\$

You can't be too much of a dick in this case.

Really, it's impossible to be a bigger dick than Microsoft is right now.

I completely forgot about MGS5. Isn't the Metal Gear Solid series fairly popular in Japan? Why would you make an MGS game for a console that Japanese players can't authenticate their games on (either right away or ever)?

ViperAcidZX · **Reply #305 on:** June 13, 2013, 05:38:52 AM

Shoot 'em ups are also popular in Japan, and the majority of those games get developed or ported to Xbox 360 (those dammed region-locked ones especially). I can only imagine a lot of Japan-only shooters are gonna end up PlayStation 4 instead (which is good because everybody can play them regardless of their region).

I wonder if Kojima is face-palming about this when this crap surfaced in Japan.

Well, technically Japan did give it the middle finger first, what with the 360 barely even selling past 1.6 million to date. If you want to see exactly how failure looks, just look at the Japanese 360 sales.

Hand-picked a couple of images and videos for the first post, and I think those pretty much sums up everything about X1.

So there's a way around that achievement without ever buying it?

Doesn't really matter, It's on the other consoles as well. (including current gen)

It's official.

Microsoft is the jealous girlfriend who gets dumped and tries all manner of completely illogical things to win love back.

Granted it's doomed to failure, but still.

God Dammit Microsoft just stop...just...just stop....you're going into a [tornado fang]ing blackhole that's going to pop you into a dimension full of man eating plants and acid.

Seriously where are their brains, I think they got shipped to 10 million BC or something.

They're just jelly that they're not wanted because of their controlling nature.

If only I was there. I would said to the guy: "I'm here for the Wii U. If I wanted the Xbox One I'd connect myself to the internet every 24 hours."

Well it's true.

Developers are quick to blame Piracy and used games for their woes, but have they ever considered the quality of their product as a factor? Of course not. Just like The market was over saturated with bad games and similar consoles back in the video game Crash of the 80's, the current market is over saturated with wannabe AAA blockbusters and FPS Call of Duty clones. The games sure are not getting any cheaper, but their quality is stagnating, with gems hidden beneath piles of turds whoa ll try to be the next Arkham City, or the next Call of Duty, or the next big Zombie game, or the next big "survival" game.

People play it, get sick of it, trade it in. if there was more quality control instead of this play-it-safe-and-try-to-be-the-next-blockbuster system, they would all be better for it. To make money you have to take a risk and try something new. Something creative. Not what everyone else is doing.

What point is there in keeping Call of Duty: Shoot People With Grim Background when Call of Duty: Shoot More People and [tornado fang] Color is coming out in a year?

Police Girl · **Reply #324 on:** June 13, 2013, 08:41:29 PM

My dad still has all the CoD games he's been given for christmas and such.

He likes them enough and plays them pretty casually but I don't know why he doesn't trade in the ones he doesn't play anymore.

But yeah, there's no point in keeping the last years model when the current year's model has MOCAP DOGS.
