I think there are 360 emulators in the sense that there are PS3 emulators, they can probably only do things like run the menus of indie games at 2 FPS.

Bought a DS4 for my PSTV because the DS3 is a trash controller, feels good to hold two dildos while I play Persona 4.

The only 360 games I care about are basically Banjo Kazooie/tooie, perfect dark, and re4 at this point. First three are covered on the rare collection and re4 will probably be ported to the bone anyway like it was with every other system on earth so I'm content not playing it again

Was Blue Dragon any good? I remember wanting to play it and never actually did

Don't even really remember what it was beyond "RPG, with some J, that DBZ guy might have been involved???"

The ME3 logic is flawed. I get that Valve might think it but there are other big games with heavy expectations that have come out and not earned the amount of vitriol that ME3 did. It wasn't a vocal minority like with Bioshock Infinite or DA:I. The ending was universally panned. And that poo poo was paired with Sim City, another extremely hyped-up universally panned game. EA earned their scorn from that couple of years.

I believe it. Valve really aren't as good at making games as most of their fans think they are. Don't get me wrong, Portal 2 was great but imagine if Half-Life 3 was about on the level of quality as Left 4 Dead 2? There'd be death threats, no question about it.

I dunno, I think people were pretty forgiving of the people involved in Duke Nukem Forever, and that game was wayyy worse.

Yeah, but then that came out before Mass Effect 3. This practise of forming hate mobs against anyone who even mildly inconveniences you is a recent development, but it's very powerful.

I really think that was born of a genuine investment in the story and characters, on a level that Half-life can't match.

ME3 was 3 years ago, and there have been plenty of sequels since then that haven't lived up to their predecessors (regardless of their actual quality). It seems a bit strange to blame it on that.

To be honest, a lot of the mass effect issue was reviewers blowing the negative reaction out of proportion and then inexplicably trying to explain to the people who'd purchased the game that they were wrong to not like it.

At first I thought ME3 whiners were just being typical gamers. Then I actually played the game a couple years later when it was cheap. After seeing the extended ending I thought it was merely mediocre. Then I watched the original ending.

I'm not even a huge fan of the series but lol at whoever thought the original ending was shippable.
