Thelogan Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I didn't know Child of Eden was a full retail game, this whole time I was just assuming it was a XBLA/PSN download. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Holy shit you guys are getting raped on that. Not only is that the price for Child of Eden here, but it came out weeks ago. I went to pick it up on the weekend but the silly trainee twunt at EB didn't know how to do a trade, so it had to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worse part is that the marketing for the game made it seem like the only way you could play it was with just the Kinect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Which is what has me interested. Try as I might I couldn't get into Rez. Popping this on, sparking up and standing in front of my 50in is going to be a special kind of magic carpet ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 I didn't know Child of Eden was a full retail game, this whole time I was just assuming it was a XBLA/PSN download. Interesting. i think most of us did, that's the problem. either way, it shouldnt've been more than $40 at retail, tops. if MS wanted to use it to hype Kinect (they did least year with Ubi's presentation, then kinda left it out of theirs), it was a weird choice - a spiritual successor to a niche title that i adore, but zero marketing and $60 (or 50 on PS3, still too high) - the whole thing sounds poorly planned. Shadow is just another victim of standardized pricing. i think. there's games people buy every year or so like Madden, COD, SF etc and get a shit-ton of replay value from, that could be priced closer to $100 with premiums and i think they'd still sell. likewise, i have a lotta love for my single player games - even short ones, but with good gameplay (or in suda's case here, charm) - but whether or not they bother tacking on a half-baked multiplayer, you're still not gonna get me in at $60, and apparently i'm not alone there. what's worse with this one is that literally video game forums that were hyped about this didn 't know it came out. i love platinum and grasshoper studios like i did clover, but they gotta figure out another game plan or just assume week 1 sales will be crap and hope for better when its $30-40 a month or two later.

Thelogan Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Chatter on other boards is that without Kinect it plays almost just like Rez, which is totally acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 yeah, i'm totally sold on that too. i'm just curious about the other experiences because a) i think i can get a kinect for cheap/free if i wait till later this year (expecting a holiday pricecut), and b) i think Los is debating getting a move for PS3, just wanna see which version holds up better under reviews. im so gonna rent in the meantime.

Now I'm excited. I need something to kill time until Skyrim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thelogan Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Bless THQ's little heart, Saint'S Row 3 looks awesome and I will be playing it, but they oughta have their head examined for releasing in that window. What I saw: Skyrim, Saint's Row, Assassin's Creed (eventually, still need to play Brotherhood. A sincere thank you to Mort for leaving it at my house several months ago, but I'm a busy man). If Mario 3D gets some crazy awesome reviews and doesn't have shit controls, I'll pick it up. Mainly because of the severe lack of quality 3DS cartridge games (launching without a solid first party lineup was retarded). Everything else can pretty much go die as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure Uncharted is cool, but if I'm gonna play it I need to play the first 2 first. Oh, MGS collection. That's pretty cool too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 im in the same boat; i still havent played brotherhood but will likely do so & get around to revelations since 2 was so good. Mainly because of the severe lack of quality 3DS cartridge games (launching without a solid first party lineup was retarded). i agree, but you gotta admit, that's pretty much how shit goes now. im impressed Vita's talking about launching with an Uncharted..when was the last time we saw hardware drop solid first/2nd party titles at launch? it's been a minute. I'm sure Uncharted is cool, but if I'm gonna play it I need to play the first 2 first. whenever you get around to it, that can be done on the cheap. ps sonic & zelda > your face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
