This meant that I missed out on a few RPGs because I was too eager to see what the next rom is like.
Actually Steam and its sales have the same effect. On me at least. But that's actually worse because those games cost money.
Yeah? How many of those did you get just because they were part of Humble Bundle?I have 164 games on steam. I have only played 66 of those. And those aren't pirated games, I have actually bought them.
To top it off, recently I have pirated quite a few PC games and played them through to completion (Tomb Raider a prime example).
Maybe half? There's still quite a lot I have bought from Steam that I haven't played. (Btw that 66 doesn't include games I've only played for about 2 minutes.)Yeah? How many of those did you get just because they were part of Humble Bundle?
The 3DS hasn't been hacked and [snip] look at the quality of games we have. If we had piracy, could you honestly say we'd have the same quality in games?
Absolutely no.
I am not seeing that at all ( http://gbatemp.net/threads/essentials-3ds-retail-games.317711/ seems to be a parade of playable but nothing great beyond those a certain crowd enjoys) and for my money the DS library was kicking the crap out of the present 3ds library at this point (some two years in- http://gbatemp.net/threads/5-years-of-ds-roms-in-5-days-year-1.236483/ and http://gbatemp.net/threads/5-years-of-ds-roms-in-5-days-year-2.236648/ and http://www.abgx.net/nds_releases_date.txt for the complete one). Going by the upcoming line up ( http://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendo-3ds-retail-lin-up-2013.345813/ ) I am not expecting great things there either though we do have the big announcement season to come.
Games ARE and have always been entertainment. (except the professional simulators and stuff) Sure, there's the artsy story games (which I really like), but most games are still about having fun. The ones you listed (NFS, GOW, COD, PES/FIFA) are certainly not about the story anyway.Don't know, i think games nowadays are more focused on entertainment than actual fun. when i was a kid, games had challenges, some really hard, some really crappy. today, AAA games are more like "GOW style, COD style, NFS style, PES style"
And you play a game for it's story, not the actual gameplay.
