I can only focus one eye myself and I can't see the 3d because of it. But its no big loss. I play games for the games not for gimmicks like 3d

How is it your favorite if you barely played it? Or do you mean, you barely played it back then, but went back to them and whatnot?

Don't people get a personal satisfaction from punishing person who did something bad to them even it means killing that person?
Like if somebody killed someone from my immediate family I would not hesitate to kill them, thats me dealing out punishment to somebody who has done something horrible to me and your damn right I would feel happy about it too.

Punishment is the act of correcting misbehavior and ensuring it doesn't happen again.
Revenge is getting personal satisfaction out of causing pain to others.

The latter is a primal urge which borders on sadism.

If I had suffered a loss I would feel better knowing the taker of a loved ones life truly suffered a horrific end as in side effects of testing. Rather than a quick death.

Human torture is unacceptable and speaks volumes about your mental state.

The Commission isn't elected. Just as the mystery man wasn't elected, nobody even knows who he is, yet he is calling the shots.

You're right. I got 'Commission' and 'Council' confused. The Council is, however, the head of each EU Member State. And all the EU countries have an electoral system at least as democratic as the US. But we've been through this. The Council is the leader (the President, if you will) of each member nation. The Parliament is made up of MEP's voted for by region in each country. The Commission is proposed by the Council (who we elected) and yay or nayed by the Parliament (who we also voted for).

Very clever! Now, maybe you should trying quoting the whole thing?

Noun:
A political and economic theory of that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated...
(in Marxist theory) A transitional social state between the overthrow of capitalism and the realization of communism.

I didn't know you were a Marxist, Unny! The things we learn each day.

As usual, the best use of the hardware comes from first party titles. But in no way is that in their defense. If the main appeal to the current hardware lineup (motion for the Wii and 3D for the 3DS) is barely made beneficial by third party devs, than the entire focal point is a waste. Wii's happiest faculty is that games can be made for it cheaply and this is only due to lackluster hardware, thus it's less complex to develop for. I can see the same thing happening for the 3DS in comparison to the Vita. The more love these units get due to being a part of the Nintendo brand, the more consumers loose out on receiving technically sound games.

Ninty has never been my burning love in the game industry, though I have always supported them (barely ever missed a hardware launch). Sad to say, I've continually lost respect and praise for the company over the past five or six years. Successful due to blinded mainstream does not equate to successful gaming console. Just look back in time to see what those were. If I may, there were consoles that were deemed unsuccessful due to lifespan *cough* http://forums.elysianshadows.com/images/smilies/dreamcast.gif *cough*, but trounce anything Ninty has done in the past five or six years combined.

Yeah, looking at someones profile on PSN is pretty much worthless. All you see is there name, a short saying and how many trophies they have, that's it. And there isn't much for you to customize yourself to make yourself unique and show some personality in it. There really isn't anything else involved, and it's not very easy to compare and track games they've played or progress they've made on games. And it's not readily easy to interact with them outside of sending a text message either.

Even when you do send a message, it can often go unnoticed very easily and there's no way to instantly open the message and reply. You have to manually go to your inbox every time.

Like I said, I just feel isolated on PSN. I have a few friends I added on PSN but I've not really interacted with or played any games with any of them still. The only person i've played with is a R/L friend of mine who I had to talk to on the phone to try and setup a match and find each other etc. Even when we do find each other in game, it's difficult to try and get a voice chat going that's just between us and doesn't include every other person hearing everything we're saying and forcing me to constantly have to keep muting everyone else every time.

And the second the match is over, bamf, no more voice chat with my friend. Back to the phone to try and coordinate again.

On the flip side, on Xbox I can see my friends all the time, see a visual representation of them as their avatar to see some individuality and personality in them instead of just a text name. I can see what game they're playing, what they're doing in the game, who they're in a party with if any, and I'm presented with a multitude of options to interact with them or invite them to any game at any time, and party chat with them at any time continuously no matter what either of us are doing. And with the new update, I can now set beacons for games I want to play with friends and see what games they're looking for friends to play with currently on to. And comparing games and progress is extremely fast and simple.

I'm not playing an Xbox Vs PS3 war here or anything. Like I said, I like my PS3 a lot. It's just PSN that I'm not happy with. After so many years on XBL, I think I'm just spoiled by it. I always hear everyone going on about paying for XBL and how PSN is better because it's free. But, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

Regardless, I hope the next Xbox makes a 'Home' like thing for the avatars and actually integrate it into XBL to make it a fully functional 3d world 'dashboard' so to speak. I think that would be a lot of fun. Or if Sony manages to do that with PS4, I'd be all over them with glee just as well.


Oh and one last unrelated thing, I really dislike having to install every damn game I wanna play before being able to play it -_- Installation should be optional......

Well I think that that proves without a shadow of a doubt that RE4 is guilty of the crime of which it is accused. The statute of limitations never runs out on criminally bad storylines. Thank you. There will be no further questions.

Court is adjourned.

People cried heresy over RE4. But now people don't think of it like that so much, because of how much the series has evolved over time.
I'm pretty optimistic believe it or not about some things, but I am still crying heresy. RE4 has blasphemed the RE name even if it was fun and looked awesome and had Mercenary mode.

I go back and I play Rebirth or Re2 and I think of how awesome these games are and I think to what has happened from RE4. Granted stupid stuff happens in stories, especially from video games but I didn't want it to happen to this game series.

I still think this is legitimate criticism even though I make these threads in jest. RE4 is still relevant, it is part of the main storyline. It may have gotten people into the series but the older games have so much more value to me. Sure I beat 4 like 5 billion times like other people and it was cool, but it just doesn't deliver to me. The replay value is good, but the atmosphere and the very nature of the game isn't like my beloved series.

Nothing to tie it in good enough. I will say right now 100% I would have preferred RE4 not only to have a decent story, but to play like the classic games play. Sure, I understand people wanted the upgrades to gameplay, but I think they could be implimented differently so as to not make the game pure action. I don't know if 5 will ever erase the poopstain that is this game. Will that even be good enough?

I wouldn't be so kind to call the plot "light" it is pure idiocy. Believe me when I say my beef is with the core story, not just some Ganado looking into the camera and this whole thing. That was just hilarious.

Steroid driven Macho Guys breaking skulls in the palm of their hand carrying huge ass guns and swords with deep gruff voices are the only men who can be accepted by the majority of american males.

Anything else is 'gay'.

And ANY kind of voice that isn't 'deep gruff badass' equates to 'whiny' apparently as well. Because there are obviously only two types of voices in existance for males. Either badass or whiny. Nevermind the looks and voice tone of the player themselves most likely matching up with the latter rather than the former. Of course that player themselves is certainly not 'gay' or 'whiny' though. :roll:

I just like to elaborate to feel confident I explained myself properly and not leave room for confusion. Consider it a personal quirk to make myself feel better if nothing else.

It doesn't work, at least not in good games. ;)

Here's the thing. Camping can be annoying sure. But, it's a valid strategy. In a real war or fire fight, would you rush in constantly head first at enemies guns a blazing? Or would you hide behind something and wait to try and pick them off when an opening arose? Which is the safest and smartest strategy?
When camping is the safest and smartest strategy the game has issues. Camping only works if somebody is willing to walk into it so if it's the best option then smart players are all going to hide and nobody will ever fight at all. It actually requires a bad player to wonder around for it to function.
This.

So yeah. If these bills pass, the internet in every way imaginable is screwed. All your favorite websites that share free information will be censored and/or taken off the web indefinitely. Please don't let that happen. If you're a US American, call your senators and tell them what they're doing is wrong OR sign this petition here. Trust me, every signature counts.

SIGN NOW!

For non-US citizens, this will also effect you as most of the websites you may use (Wikipedia, Google, Facebook, Craigslist, etc.) are American sites that will be censored for you too. :(

For more information, please read:
