It's just the formal adaptation of distribution to the video game market.
They don't touch the engineering product, they just package it and ship it for a profit. It's a beautiful thing.
I didn't particularly mind the expensive rubbish they packaged with their games, and I could tolerate the delays. The only one that really stung was the Silhoutte Mirage difficulty tampering. If they saw fit to "rebalance" (WD-speak for "ruining) it, they should've at least included an option to toggle the original difficulty.Quote:

The problem is that they do. They put Bill Clinton jokes in the Lunar translation and changed the gameplay in Silhouette Mirage, for instance.Quote:

No and yes. Ninja Gaiden was published by Tecmo I believe.
Yes Tecmo.
He's trying.
Can we just write off Alan Wake as a miscarriage and stop wondering about it?
That's the most interesting thing Microsoft has in their stable because it's already been announced for PC.
