When I buy maybe one FPS a year, and it's usually not recent, do I care much about that?
Quote:but really, why should I when FPS controls are so much better on PCs?
Says the person who played Beyond Good & Evil on the PC...
As in, action-adventure games have better controls on consoles? That's not necessarially true if the game had either had a good control scheme redone for PCs or had supported gamepads, but it did neither... but how was I supposed to know how bad the controls really were without playing it? Anyway, it was like half the price of the GC version at the time...
Well yeah, if you don't want the game anyway then it's no big deal. I was just saying your argument that "the controls aren't as good as PC" seems a little silly if you desperately would want the game otherwise.

Read a review?

The GC version is probably more than twice as good as the PC version, so the GC actually has a lower real price.
Have you actually played the PC version? Oh, it has lots of flaws, but still... on a better comptuer that could cope more with their incompetent porting job (ie: deal with the framerate problems -- similar graphics quality to Rayman 3 + worse framerates than Rayman 3 = ?) it'd be better... it still wouldn't fix the controls, though, but even so... it should have been a lot better. Ubisoft COULD have made it a good port, like they did for Rayman 2 or Rayman 3... :(
Even if I had gotten it for GC, though, I'm sure I still would have found it flawed and overrated compared to expectations.
You and your BG&E hate... :shake:
Yeah, BG&E was awesome! Who doesn't like a hot chick with a pig for an uncle...;)
Seriously though, it is a very enjoyable game.
What, do we need to debate how good BG&E is again? I haven't played the game in quite a while now, so I don't really have anything new to say... but my opinion hasn't changed. Overrated game. Not bad (I'd give it a B, probably), but overrated because of how much hype and good press it gets...
... I could just quote myself from any of the other time I've talked about this... :)
Should of used the Tears for Fears version. ;)
Naaa, that version sucked horribly, I much prefer to remake done by Gary Jules and Michael Andrews
I don't know what that means!
They're talking about a song.
