@horseman6: Truth be told, that's a pretty bad article. Here's one that goes more in-depth into what Meltzer and Alvarez actually say about this. Though it's not exactly a whole lot more encouraging but it is a little less black and white, I guess.

Essentially, there's an pro and anti camp within the WWE towards Owens. Safe to assume Vince and Kevin Dunn are in the anti-camp and Triple H is in the pro. Looks like for the moment anti is winning and as long as Vince is anti, he has the final say.

So lets be honest here, the only reason he has an anti-camp in WWE is because he is viewed as "fat" right? The best part is they can't just say no from the beginning, they have to give him opportunities and force him to fail to stroke their own egos and destroy dude' confidence in the process.

In hindsight I am shocked that Bryan and Punk ever got over on their own and in spite of management, that is probably their greatest accomplishment.

KOTOR2 had potential, if it wasn't for the pile of broken shit it turned out too. The last few levels were straight up broken, I was walking through the level geometry constantly, and the skills were imbalanced as hell. Ever defeated a major boss towards the end of the game with one move? well that happened to me.

I was never more frustrated with a game than KOTOR2, it was so broken on so many different levels and OH MY GOD IT HAD THE WORST ENDING. When people were complaining about ME3 ending, all I could think about was, "hey atleast it's not as bad as KOTOR2".

Obsidian games awlays have so much potential but KOTOR2 was too broken for me to put it in the same atmosphere as original KOTOR (probably one of my top games ever).

I will give it another chance with the said mod, maybe its finally amazing now; but god damn did I hate this game when it came out.

**edit: to give context I saved up money for 3 months to buy this game at launch, so that might play to my frustrations with the game

Hold on, how can Fallout 4 be Best of Show but not Best Console Game? I mean, if it's the best game, it's also the best console game, right?

I literally had a whole sub-point about this thing, but Jeff let me know that it was only running on PC at the show, which explains the voting.

Then why is it nominated for best console game? I mean I actually do understand why they would do it (I work in video game marketing and we need those sweet e3 nominations to make our trailers look super "rad"), but some of these categories really need to be revamped. Categorizing a game as Action or Action/Adventure in 2015 is super dumb.

@kishinfoulux: It's also unfair to judge a guy's promo ability based on 2 min promo that was written for him word by word, when the said wrestler is scared shitless about messing his scripted promo because he knows he will get buried for it backstage (one slip is all it takes for a guy who Vince already buried on Austin' podcast). Not saying Ceasaro is the greatest promo ever, but if you seen his old US Champ skits, his promos on NXT vs. Zayn, his promos outside of WWE, and in general his interviews outside of WWE; then you would probably believe he usually isn't as bad as he sounded on the mic last night and generally can be very serviceable as a promo.

Ceasaro is so unbelievably talented, that even if you believe that he shouldn't be THE top guy because of his promo ability, any rational human being would still push him as one of the top guys just to have him in top 2-3 matches because of his work rate and how good he can make your other stars look. Out of everyone on the roster he is one of the only wrestlers who would be able to pull off a believable one on one match against Lesnar, that alone should qualify him to get a push as one of the top guys.

Shibata vs Saku was soooooo good. I am still very uneasy seeing Sakuraba work, I feel like his body is going to fall apart at any moment........

Interested in seeing how the batmobile stuff actually plays, I liked all the Batman games (even Origin, it was a perfectly fine game on PC with the best story of the franchise) so I'm def picking this up but supper interested to see how the batmobile impacts the game.

I'm just not sold on the shooting, the combat in NG1 and 2 was so good that I will keep an open mind about this. Graphics look alright for Wii U, as long as it runs at a high and smooth frame rate it's fine with me.

Also the main charecter looked dumb the first time they showed him, I can confirm that he still looks super dumb today. Looks like a created character from Saints Row and I don't know if that is great or garbage.....

For me the comparison should be early 360/ps3 to early ps4/xboxone. If you look at it like that the graphical jump it is kind of ridiculous. Seeing a bit of game development this gen, the biggest change is that since the old generation went on far too long, everyone got too used to cadence and iteration they had before. Say if a game cost X amount to make during end of 360/ps3 era it probably cost 2X-3X more now because of all the additional cost you have for art assets (for examples charecter models have so much more detail in most games now, its just one of those things that you don't really notice unless you can zoom in and see the skin features cause most games are played from a perspective that is pretty zoomed out) and the lack of best practices and optimization that game developer created over a 8 year console cycle. Hence why we got all the delays last few years, it's freaking rough making AAA games now days.

Games will start looking crazy good sooner than later, but because of various reason listed (most of which have already been mentioned) it will take longer than last gen did. Plus the biggest jump for me is in the console\ infrastructure and its online capabilities that can be hugely expanded with software, where last gen those infrastructures were not in place and were kind of forced in via software.

@funkydupe: soooo if at some point (pre or post launch) they announce that PC version will have 100 player count, and in reality they have to make sure they can deliver 40 on console and quite can't promise 100 on PC yet because of game development being super hard with this short of time frame on new gen consoles (and announcing 100 and not being able to deliver would be worse PR they could ever ask for) and possible co marketing deals pushing console SKU and the fact that this is freaking a star wars game coming out around the new movie and its gonna sell like mad on consoles cause only a fraction of the population have the kind of PC that could run 100 player server) ...... would you be happy?

Just saying there is more to this than: hey! lets fuck with the fan base and deliver a subpar game cause fuck everybody. This game has to come out during the new movie, its the nature of the business and the fact you got two giant publicly traded company to deal with here.
