Microsoft cautious on Windows 8 success: "we realise that change takes time"
This is why they fail. Frankly, I don't know what the new OS is like. They made it sound like there were versions that wouldn't let you run unsigned software or buy software out of the Windows store.
Eeeeeeh ! Look at us we made a retard PC that's plastic as an Android tablet, heavy as a microsoft 1990s packaging, closed as an Apple platform doesn't have apps and won't let you run your old software.
It's the worst of all worlds in one package.
When it really should be just a PC.
As a bonus, your dad won't know how to operate it cause we hid the start button within the hidden desktop just to troll users.
Also, a PC is for work, and bullocks like live tiles won't cut it.
As for entertainment... Bullocks like live tiles won't cut it.
Imposing the same OS for touch controls and keyboard + mouse was stupid. Reply -2

Sony doubles income expectations for current financial year
Problem with Vita is games are either PS3 crossbuys or are old licences. Although new games are indeed new.
Anyway, sony naysayers should be the ones benefitting from it if that's their first playstation... Reply +2

If people get exited over rehashes and lazy graphic updates, fine.
There is nothing exciting in the 3DS's lineup, as I already played it on snes, gba, virtual console, DS... ENOUGH !!!
Especially that SCAM Animal Crossing, the same freaking game every other tired iteration. It's the 6th time Nintendo tries to sell gamers the same game, and it works ! People are that gullible.
Nintendo continues to fail repeatedly. No, what hardcore gamers want is not a lazy ALTTP clone, that's what raving dorks on Neogaf want.
What gamers want are good games like Metroid Prime (but not a rehash and not a carbon copy and not Metroid). A all-new, fresh, amazing, with no narrative chaff but still a definitive title.
Maybe like Pikmin in its time. Or Golden Sun (OK narration was all chaff in that one.) Reply 0
Platinum Games president rates its sales as a "C or even a D."
It was so japanese and yet so trying not to be just that. Its was ackward and embarrassing, like the japanese would put it.
When you're being caricatured and ridiculed (characters are vulgar "douchebags" who inappropriately swear all the time, voice acting is terrible, storyline clichéed and boring), then you don't enjoy what you're seeing.
Poor stageing during the action sometimes led to confusion. Like someone commenting on something that's happening but you're not necessarily facing the right direction, or inconsistent dialogue while you're struggling getting to grips with the game's mechanics.
Vanquish was too hectic, had to many character of ennemies onscreen at the same time, and was a fucking hard game. It's not very accessible.
I'll allow it's a fantastic game, and all those imperfections don't change the fact that it's cool and great. But there's too fucking much confusion for fuck's sake ! Someone sort the fuck out of the fucking fuck fuck.
Did I mention the never ending fucking, I mean swearing ?
So. Cheesy would-be western coating and poor readability of the action are what pulled the sales down. I my opinion. But it's a great game, you should try it ! Reply -9

Final Fantasy 10 and 10-2 HD re-makes shown in screens
No. The graphics couldn't be matched on PSOne. Voice acting was out of the question too. And that FFX game was REPLETE with mini games and sidequests.
And I don't think PlayStation One era gamers could have stood that amount of PURPLE in one game either :p
Still, second best in the series for me. Reply +2

Ace Attorney 5′s heroine will deduce lies by listening to heartbeats
You must fail to understand the distiction I made between a literary tale of impossibility, and a story about someone's who's plain lying. A detective novel is about tying lose ends, not about truth, and certainly not about lying. The detective pins the murder on someone, they have to go to the furthest recesses of possibility if that's going to exhonerate themselves or their clients, in the case of private detectives of Perry White style court dramas (or Gyakuten Saiban here).
This is why Phoenix always starts out by pinning the murder on a innocent witness just to get the trial going.
It's all about who's being a narrator and who's in command of the story.
A detective story is a battle for narratorial one-upmanship, usually between a detective and a hidden culprit.
Hence the "last boss" in Phoenix 1 and 3.
"Lying" is just a word in a book. Detective stories aren't stories, they are the staging of sense in the making.
You can't say you trully enjoy them if it's just a game of "guess whodunnit". But then maybe they make their readership experience that aesthetic of sense in the making without getting too metaphysical and that's why people enjoy them. Reply 0
