Pretty much. I don't get why people are bringing up sales either, Platinum already got paid to make the game. It's Nintendo who needs to worry about the sales.
Seriously capcpom? You have such a huge list of IPs you can make games for but you decide to focus on mobile? urg... I guess this is the future for them. Please don't f*ck up Monster Hunter and dragon dogma. You already killed Resident evil ;-;
I'm just not a fan of something that sacrifices good gameplay solely for the purpose of telling a story like a movie... That's what basically causes my extreme dislike for Uncharted. If The Last of Us does that then I won't bother with it. Although, I have a friend who desperately wants me to play it...
I'm just super focused on gameplay mechanics and/or level design. Those engage me and satisfy me more than anything else and the best reason I can come up with to explain this is that these elements are exclusive to this medium. These aspects are something that ONLY video games can supply. A well paced story is something movies do best. An intricately woven narrative with subtle details is a novel's best territory.
Uncharted 2 was something that tried to merge movie and video game into one package and I felt it failed on both sides.
The game actually has pretty decent gameplay. It's just nothing I'd call outstanding or new. The slow, heavy feel the shooting has is nice though. The focus of the game is certainly more on the story and the characters though which isn't really the most important part for games for me. Which is why I would take Metal Gear Rising or 3D world over last of us any day. :P
Edit: What's with all of the attacking in this thread? :/ I know this place is pretty bad sometimes but jeez.
Yeah I am getting a Wii U around that time. It's really the only next gen console worth getting right now for me. Can't wait to try out Wonderful 101 and Monster Hunter 3 ultimate!
Not really a fan of these kind of threads but heh why not. Off the top of my head for people that are cool, Freedomfreak, Michael, 93BlackHawk93, SolidTy, Sagem, onesan and yangire, charizard, and a few other people I can't think of right now.
Mostly depends on what kind of game you want. A decent H&S or a decent RE game. DmC story is a bit short but you unlock plenty of difficulty modes which add replay value plus the vergil dlc and bloody palace. Revelations campaign is mostly great when you're on the ship. Stuff outside of that is average imo. It also has raid mode which can add a lot to the game if you can get into it. Personally, I'd go with DmC. The boss fights are meh but the combat is decent enough to keep you entertained for a while. Though it's obviously no DMC3 or 4 in that area.
