I think Capcom's saving grace may actually be Dead Rising 3. I don't think the upcoming Street FIghter DLC is going to sell too wel, but you never know.

Why would you think that? Dead Rising looks (and plays) like garbage. Seriously, all the company has going for them are Monster Hunter and Phoenix Wright.

Because you speak for everyone.


DR3 doesn't look absolutely amazing (Even though it looks fine) because they focused on keeping a consistent frame rate with a large draw distance, because having so many fricking zombies on screen is taxing. It's more important to avoid assloads of lag and screen tearing, so it's a perfectly understandable trade off if it means it isn't the prettiest looking game.

It 'playing like garbage' is your opinion. The original was one of the best selling games when it came out, and this is a large expansion and refinement of the formula. People like the game, and will buy it because they think it plays fine. Being a launch title just helps it out, and there are plenty of people I've seen who want it over any other of the launches.

Considering the map is the culmination of the first two game's combined, at least they can get that.
It still doesn't change the fact that it a game that peole will buy because it is good.

Can get what? 10fps? congratulations

It can't even hold 30 consistently, let alone 60

Quote:
A hot debate over the years has been whether or not video games make children more violent or not. Even in the days of the Super Nintendo there were questions of whether or not video games such as Mortal Kombat made children more violent. A UK study carried out at the University of Glasgow used surveys of mothers for over 11,000 parents in order to track children’s behavior over time. The key findings of the study were as follows.

Quote:
Exposure to video games had no effect on behavior, attention or emotional issues.

Watching 3 or more hours of television at age 5 did lead to a small increase in behavioral problems in youngsters between 5 and 7.

Neither television nor video games lead to attentional or emotional problems.

There was no difference between boys and girls in the survey results.


This is one of the largest studies every conducted on the issue of video games effect on behavior and is interesting because it conflicts with other studies done in the United States. Do you believe playing video games can make a child more susceptible to violence?

:roll: This is exactly what I'm upset over. The article I posted wasn't video game news per se, it was news about a groundbreaking study proving once and for all that games don't make kids violent. I don't understand why that couldn't have gone in the current events forum considering that it's LEGITIMATE news and not GAMING news. If they didn't lock the topic about that guy who bit a man's genitals because he told him to turn down his TV while he was playing XBox, I don't see why this article couldn't stay too.

I dunno, I have suspicion that minecraft is causing kids to attack them with hammers

Are you serious.

First of all, the rule was made BECAUSE of the topics like the genital biting. Secondly, it's NEWS PERTAINING TO VIDEO GAMES. Please quit acting like there is some sort of thin line that needs to be treaded. If it is news, and it is about video games or video gaming in general, it's video game news. Stop deluding yourself.

So yeah, a Persona 3 and Bayonetta anime were just announced. Thoughts, anyone?
