[quote name='VyseArcad1a']An added feature is not a bad thing at all. Chastising a game just because of a feature that not all games have to have is just stupid. Someone earlier said that no game HAS to have anything. A great single player experience is important in any type of game, so why should it be wrong that a game focuses on just to be a fantastic gaming experience. There are people that prefer to have their friends come over to play rather than play with random people online, so why is that bad?
Maybe I do reminisce about games of yore, but at least many of the games in the past have true blood sweat and tears put into it for a great gaming experience unlike a good chunk of recent games. But then again I don't need to cap random people's heads off and waggle my e-penis in generic military shooter #3209. That's just my opinion.
So in conclusion, it's not necessary. Oh yeah, and bite me you young whippersnapper.
Anyway, BACK ON TOPIC: Rayman has been awesome for years, and I'm glad to see him come back in a non-Rabbids game, but I'll wait for it to go below $40.[/QUOTE]
lol@you not being willing to pay even $40 for it.
Yeah, I said games don't have to have anything. Nor do I have to buy them. I think we're getting confused here with the sense in which "have to" is being used. Online co-op being available wouldn't prohibit your enjoyment of offline co-op. At all. It is, however, a feature that adds more value than a variety of other features in the form of time played. I'm going to beat this game in a day (probably) and it will be close to worthless to me because I'm not going to wait around until one of my friends randomly says "yo dawg you got rayman?!
YEAH LETS PLAY IT". So it's going to be collecting dust. Or I'll resell it. Either way, I'd like to minimize my initial investment. Ergo, I'm not paying $60. And neither are you so wtf do I even have to explain this!
By the way, online being included in a game is a great determinent of how quickly its price will plummet (and to which extent). Regardless of how "great" a game is. And I'm sure this game will be great. Just...not worth $60!
*The required is attached to the fact this game already has co-op. It's silly to include co-op and not allow me to play with my Xbox LIVE friends.
