This is sort of a joke now.What videogame company hasn't been sued for something.

He's probably not the first, second or third person to think of doing something like this.

People just want to get money from someone else's success.

 

[phear3d]

maybe a suggestion for cag foreplay? instead of 'Fore' just drop the E and just go for 'For'. or just call it 4play. or do the same thing prince did

CES 2008: Soul Caliber IV: A New Hope

When I saw that trailer I instantly got a huge smile on my face. I am a bit disappointed they are both console exclusive though. The idea of being able to unlock the other character by a digital download would be cool, but that is unlikely and they would probably charge for it.

Dont get discouraged, man. I felt the exact same way about the game, because in reality it is unbalanced for the first few levels and the matchmaking is one of the weakest parts of the game. But level 6 is where it starts to level out a lot, because you unlock the “side missions” to get the scopes and such. Also, the game relies heavily on knowing the maps, so after playing a few rounds on each or focusing on a few maps you should start to see some improvement. Good luck, maybe ill see you online .

It’s too bad. I never got a chance to play the original. It also sounds like I’m too spoiled with modern FPS’s now to go back and play it. =/

It’s such a shame, but at least now people won’t be struck by the horrid reality that Goldeneye hasn’t aged too well in this past decade.
They’d have to practically rebuild the entire game to make it relevant to an audience that has seen the likes of Half-Life, Halo and Call of Duty.
It’s just too bad that Microsoft is more hurt by this than Nintendo: the Carnival Games crowd doesn’t care if they can’t play of those “violent murder simulator games” from 1997.

I don’t have a 360 but it’s still too bad ‘cause anyone who didn’t play the original on the 64 should get to experience it. Well, hopefully it will come out for the Wii’s Virtual Console at least.

Although it is a valid word, I don’t know how you would do it even once in Ninja Gaiden. Impossible achievement just present to mock you… that might actually fit Team Ninja’s style perfectly.

"I understand the feeling. I was doing pretty well at the end of November, up to level 41 or so. Then I got sick, spent a week in the hospital after a gall bladder removal, a week at home recovering, then more time cleaning up messes at work after I went back. In short, I didn’t play for almost a month. And when I tried to, I just couldn’t keep up any more. It seems short of playing with friends, there just is no place in games like this for anyone but the total hardcore. Buy a while after the games release date, or miss some time, and you’re screwed..... "

I hear ya Wombat. If it wasn’t for a large majority of my friends playing, I would have given up a while ago. I only play when someone I know is on. It’s still a little lop-sided, some better matchmaking is needed for sure. A level 10 should not be in the same match as a 50. I don’t see how they could have missed that.

From Destructoid Makes “the Rules” For Online Play

Your post reminded me of how Microsoft touted the new features of 360 XBox live and how things like the star system and zones (pro, recreation) would cleanup the original Xbox live experience and make it more family friendly.

If you ask me the ‘quality’ of players on Xbox live are exactly as bad if not worse on the new Xbox live and as far from family friendly as humanly possible.

No, COD 4, It’s Not You It’s Me

Some of the best perks are unlocked at level 1. Try stopping power and steady aim/deep impact/extreme conditioning. Even in the higher levels I still stick with some of these basic perks, stopping power in particular.

With the scopes, stick to the red dot and avoid the ACOG, at least until the patch comes out. I find it much more effective.

He did enjoy what he did listen to, and with his birthday coming up, I’m planning on getting him an iPod, so hopefully then, he may be a regular listener.

I’m with Beano Rx on this one - I find myself trying to avoid the general online community more often than not. I leave my headset plugged in, but only to keep the voice chat from blaring over the main speakers (I have voice chat set to “headset only,” but it defaults back to speakers if you unplug your headset - a “feature” that I absolutely loathe). I must admit, however, that I experienced a perverse sense of satisfaction the first time I received a scathing VOICE message accusing me of “cheating” in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. I small doses, that sort of thing makes for some great entertainment!

No, COD 4, It’s Not You It’s Me



I feel like this leveling system is a way to add more to the multilayer portion of the game. This was also on Battlefield 2 on pc and I put in 4x more in that game online than any other pc game, ever. It makes the multilayer more re playable and add incentive if you put in the hours.

I think it’s sad that they charge for things already on the disk. They would be better off from a PR stantpoint of just making it “downloadable content” or even better, including it on day one.
When it’s already on the disk, it’s part of the release for me. I’m with you 100% on this one Wombat!
