Right, which is a the lie I am talking about.

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

[Dyne]

Probably look better too. Curse of Darkness looked bad even for a PS2 game.

Nobody even mentioned that turd. LoI was the only one brought up in the thread.

What does that have to do with anything? Does no one else mentioning CoD in this thread suddenly not make it the last 3D Castlevania game released?

You can call it a broken promise if you'd like, but I'm not willing to split hairs.

Most Microsoft Studios games aren't region-locked, they're supporting what they said the system can do.

The only company that truly cares about the subject and is locking down the majority of their games is EA. If you want to complain about someone in particular complain about them, otherwise it's a spotty decision that has nothing to do with MS. Now read this list of region compatible games and then you can go back to bashing the DS for raping your children or something.

I don't give a fuck about Microsoft Studios. The Xbox hardware arm of Microsoft promised region free games, and they failed to deliver. The PS3 and every portable ever have region free games. The 360 does not, period. EA games are region free on all those platforms.

Tell you what, you provide a source of a Microsoft rep stating there will be no region encoding on any 360 games and I'll admit that you might have a point this time.

[Space Pirate Roberts]

How can you expect him to do that? You know very well Fox News doesn't cover games.

[Mikhal]

I tried looking and saw nothing about MS confirming region-free games. In fact, most of the stuff I saw was people actually being SURPRISED that the 1st wave of games were region-free! Then I had a laugh cause I saw E3 '05 PS3 info with dual HDMI ports and 1080P standard.

I don't care enough to go dig for it, but I am sure I'm not the only one who remembers. It was a pretty big deal at the time.
