Doom 3 was lacking in certain areas but I still felt motivation to keep playing. (Still yet to buy the BFG edition).

Lollipop Chainsaw was awesome D:

Last Guardian information was posted yesterday here

You're the same type of YouTube commenter I've found who "cares" about DmC yet has no idea what they are talking about. Rather than looking at the game itself, you complain about Dante not having white hair. I'm also going to take a wild guess and say you're one of those who "love DmC but have NO idea how to play it and just mash XXXXYYY". Everyone I know within the Deep DmC community are looking forward to this game and those that have played it(Some of the tournament players) have said the gameplay is "almost" on par with Dante in DMC4 (with stances and combos). The point of DmC (and Bayonetta) is that it's supposed to be an adventure/fighting game. You don't bitch about story and graphic design but talk about how in-depth the games mechanics are.
It's the same as complaining about the story of Street Fighter 4 but who cares about the story, it's the gameplay that's important.

DmC needed a series reboot as the series ended fine after DMC4. Look at games like Tomb Raider which have taken a more Uncharted root. The story of DmC hasn't been "spoiled" yet so no-one knows what the deal behind Dantes new look is, along with the environments, settings, characters and relationships. You're ignorance and blind hate also seems to shine high when you refer to the company as "Team Ninja(Ninja Gaiden/DoA)" rather than "Ninja Theory(Heavenly Sword/Enslaved)". Also, I don't think you grasp the point of a "reboot". Look at films like Spiderman 1,2 and 3 to the new Amazing Spiderman. I guess Amazing Spiderman sucks because of his costume or that Aunt May doesn't have gray hair? It's a retelling of the story/new story and DmC is now in that phase.

Lastly, there is a demo for DmC later this month. Instead of already spouting BS and coming to a conclusion that it sucks (based on Dante having black hair....) maybe you should play it.
You should use more caps and swear more.

Ok, where do I begin? Let's see, first off, fuck you for thinking I don't care about DMC. It is one of my favorite Capcom franchises. And, if you paid attention, I mentioned Dante's new appearance first because it was the least important thing. It does bug me, but not as much as how different they made his character. His appearance looks bad compared to his old one, yes, but I don't care that much. It's his new personality that bothers me. Also, fuck you for thinking I'm a button mashing Youtube asshole. Again, this is a great series that I've loved since I first played it. And, just for more obscenities, fuck you for saying how the story doesn't matter. Yes, the mechanics are more important, but does that mean I'm not allowed to like the story? And for more swearing, fuck off with that "Team Ninja/Ninja Theory" shit. So I said the wrong company name. The names are similar enough to confuse, so I'm so fucking sorry I said the wrong name.

And yes, I am pissed now, mostly because of you trying to make it seem I don't like the game itself. I've seen gameplay, and the gameplay looks solid. Just because the gameplay looks good, does that mean I should just shut up about the radical change in character personalities?

Was that enough swearing for you, jackass?

Jeez man,1,000,000 dollars to the Swear Jar,right now.No but seriously,don't take those post personal,this is NOT Youtube or whatever place that allows you to get "all that".

There's no shame waiting until the eventual price cut!

That's what I'm doing with the Vita but, since I plan on buying one, I am purchasing some games that I think might be hard to find later or if they go on sale. Supposedly it's taking a cut in 2013, so I'll have to wait awhile to play Persona 4: The Golden.

My problem is that I got the Wii and PS3 about 4 years into the current console generation and I really missed out in that time. I really hate missing out on the things I love.
Although realistically, I'm probably just going to decide to expand my 3DS library. 3 games is not enough.

The Wii U won't get a price cut so soon since Nintendo is already going to sell it at a loss.

IMO, the price isn't the problem with the console. It's the games. They just don't have that many games out that warrants owning a Wii U.

I guess I still can't shake how the Game Cube had such a massive price drop and that it won't happen with a Nintendo system again. Yeah, you're absolutely right about the price staying as it is but they do eventually have some bundle deals! Plus, at some stores, they occasionally offer gift cards if you a buy a system which can help sweeten the deal.

[A Zombie Riot]

See, Nintendo just wants to make their consoles affordable. So, they're willing to take a hit to make sure many more people will buy it.

The thing is though, I believe that the Wii U won't sell as well as the Wii. Despite it getting a pretty good headstart compared to the NextBox and PS4.

I think when we see a price drop will be in 2014. I'm sure some stores will have a sale on them one way or the other next year, too.

Is it just me or does anyone else run out of games to play, all the time?

[A Zombie Riot]

I do. I always have games I want to replay. But I don't feel like playing them.

Like Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie. And then Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.

[Hexadecimal]

I'm really afraid I won't be able to shake it, but my problem is that I seem to be forcing myself to play games rather than running out of ones. All I really used to do was play video games and now I really have no interest. I don't like that at all.

[Zaliphone]

My problem with running out of games is that I have no constant cash flow. So I get a surge of games about twice a year and about this time of the year I run out of things to play and can't wait to get the games that come out in the fall season.

[A Zombie Riot]

I have Gamefly, so that helps slightly.

With them delaying the release of South Park and Company of Heroes 2, things are only going to get worse. It's a shame as THQ can, when they want to, turn out a quality product.

Speaking of THQ, I asked Santa for WWE 13 for Christmas. In the meantime, I rented it from Redbox, and after about an hour realized it's not worth the sixty dollar price tag. It's a shame that the only thing they fixed this year was the story mode, every other annoyance from WWE 12 was carried over.

Well,shit.

[A Zombie Riot]

They're doing slightly better today. Stock has went up, and they're worth 8.25 million.

Bunch of GTA V news drops today thanks to Game Informer. I'm excited!!

Halo 4 is terrible, the multiplayer is broken, it has kill cams which is just a huge why and doesn't play like Halo.

343 ruined it, and they don't even know it, Halo 5 and 6 are going to be bad as well.

In my opinion if Halo's were a 10, this Halo is an 8, sure it's Halo, but it's terrible.

Also the mantis is to fucking overpowered, and there are no more weapon spawns which now just killed the arena aspect of it.

I seriously hope that 343 get a terrible fan reaction to it, and they change Halo 5 to be like 2.

Neat.
