Title: I'm royally f*cked off with COD Vita
Post by: soop on November 16, 2012, 01:11:06 AM
I was really looking forward to playing this, but it became apparant before release that Black Ops Declassified was going to be an absolute trainwreck.  Anybody else disappointed?  If nothing else, it's bad news for a pretty decent console.

I really wanted to be right about portable gaming still having a place on a platform like the Vita,  Touchscreens are a bunch of ass for a whole load of genres.

:)

Even if you don't care about the game, it means that:
There's no "killer app" for the Vita
Less Vitas sold as a result
Less reason to make other decent AAA titles (no money in it)
Or if it does do relatively well, it just proves publishers can just release any old crap and people will eagerly swallow it down

I don't care about COD one way or the other, but I was hoping it would boost Vita sales a bit so it would be considered a "real" system.

I mean, the hardware is great. It just needs games, I can only play Virtua Tennis so much.

Ditto!

I really enjoyed that free Warioware rip off.  Lumines is good, if not a bit too Lumines-y.  Mortal Kombat is the port that shows that console games can be done on the road.

I have 11 games for the system, I think I enjoy 9 of them.

I've got 4 so far, and I have to say, Uncharted and Gravity rush are pretty good.  I'd rate them both around 80%.  Unit 13 is alright if a little samey, and I don't play the golf title that it came with much.

That's because Jack Nicklaus doesn't star in it. (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

I've got very mixed feelings about Assassin's Creed 3 Liberation.

I bought the Vita for Falcom games. Zero no Kiseki Evolution is currently my favorite game to play on anything. Just wish it wasn't for the farking Vita. Why must I put up with this little screen, low resolution, and aliasing? Never really understood the appeal of handhelds, though, to tell the truth. Turbo Express was never anything more than a cool gimmick to me.

CoD can rot. I'm glad it disappointed fans. They deserve it. That kind of mega budget re-tred war mongering bullshit is %70 of what is wrong with modern gaming.

For the record: %10 is "cheap-ass iPhone shit", %10 is "WoW-type crap", and %10 is "misc.".

COD for vita was going to fail from the start.  Why in all that is holy would you want to play an fps game on a handheld?   Just cause it's supposedly a AAA title doesn't mean it's going to be a good game.  Usually now a days a AAA title means crap that's going to get sold back to Gamestop.

It does suck though, cause the vita really is an amazing system.  It just needs the games.  Tokyo Game Show this past September did show some nice titles that will be coming out next year.  Still though, it's going to be to late when that happens.

I used to hate FPS' since Quake, but I have to admit, I do like the CoD series.  A lot of my friends play it, which is nice, but then they play Halo too, and (story aside) I don't really like that.

What I was really hoping for was something like MoH Heroes on the PSP, which I had hours and hours of fun with.  I might even go back to that TBH.

But yeah, a decent FPS would have been nice to play on the Vita, though it would be even nicer if any of my friends had one... everyone used to have a PSP, and now it's just me and my Vita and hardly any good games.

I just reserved an HTC Droid DNA (known as HTC J Butterfly here in Japan) with a 1080p display, so the Vita's 544p (which hardly any games even use BTW) can lick my hairy keister.

(Disclaimer: Yes, I know there aren't going to be any polygonal Android games that run well at 1080p for a while. Still, 544p is pathetic, and the least they could do is make games that run at 544p. Even if the frame rate turns to shit, at least the jaggies would all but disappear, so fark the Vita and most of its developers to farking hell.)
