All I'm saying are that the default rock band controllers are cheaply made not that the game is bad or anything.

I said the game was fine without the regular in box controllers.

I just do not personally care for the genre. I mean people made the accusations that I'll just play mindlessly whatever is put in front of me, I just did not care for that genre. It was the same with Dance Dance Revolution too.

How well does Street Fighter sell? I know its a big name but I've never paid much attention to fighting games and hadn't really thought about it but it probably does sell a lot and should be capable of moving units.

Street Fighter IV itself and its Champion Edition were huge, but after that they make most of the SF money off DLC updates for it like arcade edition and ultra.

I forget where, but there was a point where a Capcom guy said that Resident Evil 2 on PSX alone sold more than like all Marvel vs. etc. fighters combined. But we have that more useful chart Capcom put out to compare and this was before SF4 was released.

That chart is very specific though so in some cases like "Resident Evil 4" it seems like a low number because they count the Gamecube, PS2 and Wii versions of it as three different games.

Mario Kart and 3D World have been very good and worthy installments to their respected genres and in the case of MK8 it was worlds better than the previous 2 installments.

But it's just that there's just not a whole lot going around, the quantity is the issue not the quality.

That and NOA is still more heavily tied to NOJ which limits them from doing stuff like the other companies are doing with HD releases and brining series like Yakuza over to America.

I mean I will give it to you that Rock Band guitar and drum controllers were pretty lovely but Guitar Hero guitars worked great

Also it contradicts because you said if you had no taste, you'd own the guitar hero and rock band games but later you said you didn't mind them so did you just admit you have no taste? :confused:

And ironically the RB3 keyboards were made by madcatz and they were actually really good and they didnt crumble

Oh no it was more to do with the assumption of I'll play anything. I just picked those two series because they had multiple installments and large amounts of DLC released within a short period of time and were driven into the ground by the publishing companies.


Also I don't really see the issue with tomb raider, granted it didn't have DMC style combos, but it was certainly better than Resident Evil 5 and 6, and better than Castlevania Lords of Shadow. Like a solid 8/10 action game. And it wasn't like Call of Duty where you were just guided down a tunnel or like that Prince of Persia remake with the headscarf where there was only one path through a level and no backtracking or places to explore.

None of that's really worth defending yourself over dude, like the great Katy parry once said, "choose your battles babe then you'll win the war, stop digging your own grave when there's so much to live for"

right now it's like this.

Capcom is right now an expensive whore. Like a wore dipped in solid gold and rolled in glitter made of pure diamonds and the ashes of the recently dead Stan Lee. Your frat bros won't let you have her for the night because there's a bunch of cheaper uglier whores by the dozen available all for the price of that one single whore. So you're going to put that money else where because that whore makes enough cash to sustain herself. She's no desperate for your money this solid gold dipped whore encrusted with pressurized carbon and the remains of a dead man. This whore don't need you this whore don't need nobody.


But one day a rich man(a man who is not you) with enough money might want the whore for himself if he so desires and he will pay the high price.

And then a week later we will find the whore laying dead in a marsh with two bullets in the back of the head and all her organs removed and sold to people at auction.

The organs are the game IPs and Megaman is forever doomed to be a Pay2Win IOS game.

MadCatz got a lot better last generation, around when they started making the Rock Band stuff and fight sticks.

The death sequences were tamer than resident evil 4. Lara couldn't even get decapitated or mamed. It just made it appear more bloody than it really was because of the red blood border that appeared when the screen turned black and white at low health and obscured everything.

That river death when she gets implanted in the neck wasn't even a separate rig or anything it was a polygon just going through another poly and facial animations.

I remember wincing when I was a kid playing Tomb Raider 2 and fell into a spike pit for the first time, there's a pretty gross crunch/glug sound while she twitches like a spider. TR2013 was just that in HD.

I tried GIS'ing it but it just gave me 10000 versions of TR2013 river spikes, haha.

Yeah the Xbox can't even get that politically correct Uncharted Ripoff made by that indie dev. They apparently denounced the bone but the game wasn't all that good to begin with and nobody really bought the game so nobody really cared that it was staying PC exclusive.
