that would be a lot cooler if you had more option for factions... never thought of that. it might make the gang affiliation aspect of the game make some sort of sense, also.
oh, the hatred i had for that gate as a child... *shakes fist*
apple here, i remember playing it at school...
that because you can unlock all of those items in the game by playing it. they are in marketplace for those that would like to buy them rather than earn them.
that doesnt mean you cant weigh in on the game, mike. just because you state your opinion, that doesnt mean it nullifies or contradicts lukes opinion.
im saying that because i really like this review form. i like the giant red "no" staring at me up there... even after a long history of kotaku not wanting to grade games in that fashion, and me agreeing with that idea, i like the 'no,' and i like the overall feel to this review. i didnt mind the previous iteration of 'yes' and 'no,' either (i cant remember what it was called). this review form seems to use the best of all kotaku review forms of the past, it seems streamlined, somehow.
the only thing i would change is adding the reviewers name somehow above "would you play this game?" i like that kotaku staff is made up of different people with different tastes, but it can mean something different if its coming from a specific writer, if i feel that i am familiar with their tastes. i like having luke write a review that says 'no,' and you saying 'yes' or 'maybe' (inferring here) in the comments.
also, its saucy.
dropped the ball? their ball goes up in this scenario, not down - they make bank.
it sucks, but thats how it is. it was pretty brilliant, really, they never promised anyone anything on a price/content scale, only all of the dlc for the "year." the trusting side of me wanted to believe that i was getting a deal, and i probably will save a few bucks in the end (with the hardened edition price), but its less dlc that i believed i would get.
if snoop dogg was dead, i wouldnt have seen him on the price is right playing plinko about a month ago.
fahey, get blazed and watch this:
hah! i didnt even catch that the first time i read/skimmed the article. snoop is aliiiiiiiiiiive!
"according to GameStop president Tony Bartel, the opposite is in fact true. All up, in the week or so after the game’s release, GameStop sold nearly 600,000 subscriptions to the service (note this figure does include pre-orders)."
i bought elite because i end up buying the dlc anyways, so it saved me $20 when i got the hardened edition. however, i dont play on the elite playlists now because i dont want to play the same two maps over and over again (generally what people vote for, its what theyre there to play).
when the list of new maps grows, im sure i will play on those playlists, but for now, its a once in a while thing.
my prediction is that these map packs will cost $20 instead of $15 this time. i have a number of reasons why, but ill wait and see if it comes true.
i really wish this wasnt an exclusive....
i actually dont like american apparel shirts... i liked the shirts they used before switching to AA better.
yeah, i tried to find a few shirts on threadless the other day (i wont make an order for only one or two shirts)...
i couldnt really even find much i would want at all anymore, let alone whats in stock in my size. everything used to be kind of witty, or at least aesthetically interesting. now most of it is just blah...
i know its a little redundant to have custard ice cream, but damn its good.... burnt caramel core.... dope.
i miss disemvoweling. such a brilliant reaction to asinine comments.
i agree with that point. i've been reading kotaku daily since mid 2006, i comment when i feel i have something to say, or if a response to another comment seems to be in order. i usually keep it short and to the point, with the occasional rambling rant, or lengthy explanation comment, and i am generally witty when the opportunity presents itself.
the thing is, this in itself isn't enough to get a star. im not really sure what it takes, and honestly, i kind of don't care anymore. that's unfortunate, because it keeps me from really feeling that i am part of a kotaku community, as i am a second rate citizen on this website, at least since stars happened. not being starred gives less value to the things that i have to say, and for some reason, i am not special enough to deserve one. its all a bit silly, but i understand regulating comments is difficult, too.
i stuck with kotaku through all the gawker/kotaku ups and downs of the last 5-6 years... through awful site redesigns, stars, staff changes, et c. now with crecente gone, i am really curious about vox's new site, because it seems that over time i've made myself at home at a site that doesn't want me here at all anyways. might be time to move on...
which makes it look like kotaku gets much of its news from other sites... not much of a bright side there.
try kotaku.com/ashcraft. same thing.
good eye, good eye....
play ball!
