I don't like rushed games (like True Crime 2), but I also don't like games that are shown at E3 of one year, then we wait 4 years for that game to come out because the developers have amnesia and when they bump their heads they remember some ideas and push the date back. Example: two games were shown at E3 2006, one PS3 exclusive, one XBOX360 exclusive (you'd really know what I'm talking about). We get hyped for them because of their graphics and stuff. The developers for both games promise release dates in 2007. But then they're like, "Fuck, I forgot something." We keep seeing more gameplay in the next 3 E3s. Then in 2010, they finally fucking coming out, one in February, one in May. Who won? The XBOX360 exclusive. Why? Better voice acting, less glitches, more experienced developer, a story that doesn't break and more DLCs for the game. The PS3 exclusive, however, was made by an old noob developer, a story that got beat by Red Dead Redemption (also beats the XBOX360 game's story), glitched walking controls (plus they didn't put common sense into what button we should use for walking), bad voice acting (for some characters) and only one damn DLC that didn't affect the story. But, the good thing was a lot of endings were possible, except that I can bet Bioware could beat that number with Mass Effect 3, seeing how many endings there were in the second game. The moral? Don't hype too much for a game that takes forever to buy and then all you get is half of what you wanted. And to make that noob developer more classified as experienced, they should make one more game and release it faster because their product was more of a 2007 kind. That was long.
