Anyone besides me see an alarming trend now of games being hyped, with great looking E3 demos of an upcoming titles that don't reflect the end product? It's the new American Greed factor, and sadly, it may work.

That is, if you're a title dev/publisher and it ends up as an inferior end product, then... hyping it up BEFOREHAND with misleading demos and articles and then calculating how many will be reeled in, and going from there may be the new wave of selling games.

Lesson here is beware of tech demos.

Another lesson is to up your fucking standards. I've been shouting this game will suck balls SINCE I saw that freaking tech demo. Imagine the amount of acid boiling up into my mouth when I realized later the game was going to be even more horrid! I felt like a freaking xenomorph! Ha ha!

...Also: Don't blindly buy crap because you're fan of the franchise. I'm such a big fan of Geralt of Rivia, my wife actually shows signs of jealousy. Will I blindly buy The Witcher 3? Of course not. It's matter of factly a stupid thing to buy anything unless you know it's what you want. NOT because you've wasted your money -- that's your own damn problem -- but because you've supported a CRAP product and tainted the industry because you did.

Both Gearbox and Sega should be sued for this scam.

By who, Fox? They don't give a fuck, never have, never will. This shit wouldn't be canon if they did, and for the matter, neither would Alien 3 and Resurrection. My having been able to take a dump on them without even mentioning the AvP movies just goes to show how much of a damn they give.

I felt bad for Sega until I read the bit about how they wanted it to be like Call of Duty fighting marines. Not anymore. Along with Fox and Gearbox, they can go fuck themselves too.

Lesson here is beware of tech demos. They can easily mislead. Based on the article it looks to me that they had cut back graphics because of console ps3 limitations. I wonder if the game would have looked better if they didn't "lower common denominator" the game.
