Support NeoGAF

I took this from the other thread, but this sort of garbage move deserves every backlash it can get. It`s like a new DRM to prevent people who buy the physical disc to experience how bad the game is before release, and this game is obviously very bad. The "patch" is bigger than the "game" that is shipped on the disc.

Edit: I haven't tried it myself. It would be cool if someone else tested it.

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

So if you have no internet rip?

 

[Sou Da]

Jesus Christ, that better be one hell of a tutorial.

 

[dark10x]

Whelp, although my interest is low, I had at least considered it out of curiosity. No way in hell will I purchase a game that doesn't run off the disc, however.

 

[Ouren]

How is this a real game

[Gamezone]

So if you have no internet rip?

Yeah. Or if you like collecting, the disc is useless. And we are talking about consoles here.

 

[Sephzilla]

jesus christ

 

[Dartastic]

This game should not have been released at all. Holy shit. How is this okay?

 

[Askherserenity]

This game is bringing all the laughs as expected.

 

[CassSept]

So if you have no internet rip?

They have a product for those who can't get online, it's called THPS3.

 

[Mike Golf]

Guess if we won't willingly go all digital we'll either be forced into it or forced out of gaming altogether. Really hope this kind of thing doesn't catch on with other titles.

 

[Bsigg12]

That's one way to ship a game...

You have to wonder what that studio environment must have been like for the last few months for the game to be what is it is today.

 

[Soulflarz]

For what it's worth: I'm happy this exists for the comedic effect?

 

[Flandy]

Jesus christ whoever decided this was acceptable can fuck right off

 

[Labombadog]

Neversoft am cry.

 

[Sidewinder]

Is there no certification or quality control going on anymore?? This is just sick.

 

[BibiMaghoo]

Is anyone actually surprised? Anyone?

 

[Ferrio]

Well... okay so everything sucks about the game...how bout the soundtrack?

 

[SaganIsGOAT]

They have a product for those who can't get online, it's called THPS3.

lol 😂

 

[Alec]

Such hype...so deflated.

 

[Gamezone]

Is anyone actually surprised? Anyone?

This hasn't been done on consoles before. Games have had bugs, but they were shipped complete.

 

[rrs]

nailed it

 

[Couleurs]

$59.99

 

[myco666]

Well... okay so everything sucks about the game...how bout the soundtrack?

Soundtrack is good.

Oh boy this game is something else. I almost want to buy it and experience the trainwreck.

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Neversoft am cry.

What are they doing these days anyway? Call of Duty map packs?

 

[zahran]

oh no.

 

[Sawneeks]

Setting a new bar for how bad a game can be.

 

[Simply Sami]

Everything about this game is so bad. Typical activision.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Inb4 some controversial news piece about entitled gamers or something

 

[Daffy Duck]

This is the game that just wants to fail.

 

[Jackbooted]

Normally I would say vote with your wallet but I'll put good money on the fact that the game sells well enough that Activision won't get any message about putting out incomplete SP games and relying on patches to finish it up.

 

[chadskin]

Man, this has become an even bigger train wreck than I expected. Shame to see.

 

[Funyarinpa]

Come on guys, they're just trying to replicate that feeling of playing a demo over and over again.

 

[Nyoro SF]

What are they doing these days anyway? Call of Duty map packs?

The company officially dissolved and the employees were absorbed into Activision / left for other ventures.

 

[Stilton Disco]

Fucking despicable

 

[MikeE21286]

It better say internet required on the box. If not i would buy it and play it and then return it.

 

[schaft0620]

Holy shit

 

[brandonh83]

This game should not have been released at all. Holy shit. How is this okay?

Consumers tell them it's okay.

 

[smashballTaz]

 

[Iacobellis]

What struck me odd was how the base game was only about 4 gigabytes. I'm pretty sure 360 games at LAUNCH were that same size.

 

[schaft0620]

How big is the patch?

 

[Kriken]

...How is this even allowed? That's some straight up BS what they offer purely on the disc

 

[Overside]

This hasn't been done on consoles before. Games have had bugs, but they were shipped complete.

I hope the people who wanted convenience so bad that it lured them to give up everything they did find that convenience was worth this being the future.

Because it wont stop here.

This generation.... Chose poorly.

 

[Nokterian]

It keeps on giving and giving..

 

[Falchion]

Wow, this is just hilariously terrible. No way I'm touching this now.

 

[mrmickfran]

I didn't think that Activision could dig any deeper, but here we are.

 

[Gamezone]

How big is the patch?

7 GB I think. The game is like 4 GB on the disc.

 

[BibiMaghoo]

This hasn't been done on consoles before. Games have had bugs, but they were shipped complete.

Not sure that is so, MCC shipped without multiplayer right? Without an update all you got was the campaigns.
