Re: PlatinumGames Addresses Wonderful 101 Kickstarter Custom Fees, And Backers Aren't Happy

@sanderev lol again no its not. How on earth would i find out the information for that? The seller has to display that information and again kickstarter rules state you have to display all potential fees. Platinum made a mistake they need to own up to that. Stop defending dodgy practices this is why companies think they can get away with it because people defend them. I love Platinum, mgs rising, bayonetta, mad world and hell yeah wonderful 101. But this is a kick in the teeth to the people who love them the most. Own up to it, reimburse those people move on. Done and dusted no harm done

@sanderev lol no its not. Kickstarter rules state you must inform backers of potential chargers regarding import fees or otherwise. Also IT IS down to the seller to state where they are shipping from. They offered the product to the uk so it should of been clearly stated in the project that import fees would apply. Not hidden in the FAQ and added after they had been backed

@roadrunner343 very true they will just create hardware for the situation. However other companies have done this and failed, and although Google are big, no one is big enough to avoid failure. I will wait until its available to fully judge, but i can see it now ending up with blurry laggy games that become unplayable as your internet buckles . Fingers crossed its better than previous attempts

Once again another company takes a crack at Streaming games.... I mean look how much of a success they have all been so far! Look at Onlive, truly a gaming marvel unparalleled in it's levels of success.... Seriously though why Google. You don't even have the biggest cloud infrastructure, Amazon does. Even though the internet is better than it was even just a few years ago, Games are much bigger than they were and require more data to be playable. Unless Google has some magical way to give all of their audience better internet, this is pretty much a waste of time. Can you imagine trying to play a fast-paced fighter or shooter via streaming? Just not viable

Re: Assassin's Creed III Remastered Gets Official Release Date, But It Seems The Switch Rumours Were False

@NotTelevision Exactly. I haven't played origins and Odyssey yet so not sure what their tutorials are like. BOTW opening was amazing, as it wasn't so much a tutorial, but an introduction to a smaller area, before giving you the whole map. Off topic slightly but I also don't like that the latest AC uses the same climbing system as BOTW. Part of the fun to AC climbing was finding a route. Sure BOTW climbing was great too, but it worked in that world, AC I imagine would lose something by using that climbing system
