  1. If that's true, they've gone and made the same mistake as they did with the Wii U. Unique controls for no reason other than to be different to anything else, and not nearly as powerful as stuff that's already out, which will immediately turn off third party developers. They may as well just make handhelds at this point. 

  2. It depends on the connection, Im normally alright, so you might have NAT set to strict or moderate, definitely affected getting my throws off, and there was one sack that Cam would've jukes out of had it responded quick enough to the controller input. 

     

    Also, I noticed DYSI didn't switch injuries back on after the preseason. That and simming the conference championships. Worst commish. 

    Couple of notes on the game:

     

    It should have been a shutout ¬_¬ Green had two TDs of 60 and 50 yards, without them he'd have had 2 catches for 60 yards, which still would have topped the Chiefs. Annoyed I let those through. 

     

    Both running games failed miserably, neither back topping 100 yards. Although Artis-payne did score. 

     

    Luke Kuechly was MVP with two picks and 6 tackles. Although he didn't get in on the sack party (Kaepernick was felled 6 times, and I think Cam was taken down 3 or 4)..

     

    Highlights! 

     

    I presume that's it now? Since 17 is around the corner, we won't have time for another season.

  3. Knocked out the Seahawks in what was refreshingly a legit tough game as opposed to a cheap tough game. I dunno if I'm just awesome at run defense, if my personnel are suited to it, or it's just too easy this year, but I hope 17 gives me more of a challenge. I shouldn't be able to keep Lynch to 20 yards on a dozen carries in the playoffs.

    I give up on my argument, I was working on the logic that if you keep doing the same thing over again in a short period of time it can lead to lower interest. But then again I forgot to factor in "Nintendo".

    That was basically my point, the brand loyalty with Nintendo is ridiculous. You see it to a lesser extent too with franchises like Call of Duty, where I've had people come up to me and drop 50 quid on it even as they're moaning that they don't like the future setting or gadget focus, but they can't not get it as they'll have noone to play with if they don't.

    The comparison was more to do with the frequency of games being released than content, between Guitar Hero and Rock Band they put out nearly 20 unique main console games over 5 years.

    For a start, you've got two separate publishers putting out games inflating your totals there. People buy Pokemon games because it's Pokemon, there's comparatively few people who bought Guitar Hero or Rock Band games, because of the franchise. Yes, there were a lot of releases in a short space of time, but there are more factors affecting the decision to buy with those games than with Pokemon - constant updates to expensive peripherals, different instruments entirely being introduced etc. Hell, people buy entire consoles for Pokemon games, have you ever heard someone say they're getting an Xbox to play Guitar Hero? 

  6. Not sure Guitar Hero is relevant here, there were more deciding factors. Mainly the additional cost of instruments but also things like tracklist. If you don't like half the songs on a game, you're likely to skip it, but chances are a fan isn't going to skip a Pokemon game because they don't like Pidgey or something.

  7. I can has GTA now. Naturally the best part of two years away from it has only increased my ability to drive 20 metres without catching on fire, honest. 

     

    Serious, I'll totally be your getaway driver and we totally will survive long enough to spend the loot. Totally. Honest.
