StarChan: But you seem all eager to be publicly humiliated once more.
I stand by everything I wrote in this thread. If you believed in your words you wouldn't feel the need to score points.

We had an ended debate, you now return to throw another punch. Then you climb onto your high wanna-be-a-GOG-mod horse, complaining about my tone to you. Now, do you live by the sword, or don't you?

We had an ended debate, that says nothing about your debate with amok. My post was questioning the way you shut amok down, throwing in a reference to our discussion it does not constitute "another punch", especially since I didn't know we were fighting. It turns out (apparently) that we weren't having a friendly discussion but rather you bear genuine animosity and the pathetic desire to score points.

Writing a comeback is wanting to be a mod now? Somehow I don't think that's the sort of thing a mod would have written. Apparently you missed the subtext.

Your attempt to coax me into an extended debate with Amok lacks motivation if you not either a) wanted to see that debate continued, actively fuelling it, or b) wanted to meddle in the exchanges of other users because, somehow, you feel morally entitled to it. Which obviously would justify my GOG-mod-wannabe claim. As for that, all you need to do is to state that you in no way desire to be moderating for GOG. Who would I be to argue against that?

It would also be helpful if you refrained from editing posts as they were being answered. It seems you have worked up a bit of self-righteous rage, to the effect of altering your entire post.

CymTyr: I digressed here, but we have two potential outcomes on this path we're taking as consumers: We can either support digital only with no right of resale, or we can prolong the life of disc based systems. Your choice. They already got pc users to forget about disc drives in a lot of modern pc builds.
avatar
CMOT70: Both Microsoft and Sony have shown indications of bringing in resale/trade options for digital games. Microsoft stated outright they are working on a system. Sony haven't said anything official, but a year ago they did file a patent for a technology that allows the building in of an ownership portion into digital games- meaning that ownership could be transferred.

Anyway, despite having discs- the current generation has shown a huge increase in people buying digital on consoles, even higher than 50% in some markets. People are going that direction, the purpose of the Xbox SAD is simply to give people a $50 cheaper option if they only buy digital...plus there are now people that are using primarily Game Pass to play- the SAD is great for them. Yes you can buy bundles of the standard model for cheaper- when it gets out there the SAD will still be $50 cheaper than whatever the S can be sold for. And the SAD had a bigger HD as well.

Sarang: My question is will the PS5 be bc with PS3?
avatar
CMOT70: Sony have only confirmed PS4 backwards compatibility at this point. We don't know other than that. My guess is that emulating the PS3 is too hit and miss, they probably have something but it only works well with a few games.
I am never going to digital fully for various reasons, one big reason is license expiration. "Scott Pilgrim" is a great argument for why we need discs, the licensing now being an absolute clusterfuck likely because Universal sees the demand but is demanding too big a wad of money to see it re-released. In other words they are greatly overestimating sales numbers. I haven't even brought up patches for releases on disc that need to STOP.

As for PS3 I'm not re-buying my games for it, I will wait for an FPGA that handle it. Sony can suck on a lemon if they think I will re-buy "Ni No Kuni", "Demon Souls", "Lair" and the many other PS3 exclusives that haven't been ported to other platforms. The sad thing is the PS3 is chockful of PS2 goodness with the PS2 classics to buy which is still much better then the PS4 store for them. Case in point, pretty much the whole big Atlus slate, Tecmo's "Trapt", Suikoden 3-5, Eternal Ring, Evergrace, Fatal Frame 1-3(why are the first 2 missing from the XBox store), etc. All that is on the PS4 are like 10 games..."Parappa the Rappa"(which has a timing problem), "Fantavision", "Primal", "Me and Satan King(i.e. Okage)", Wild Arms 3, "Dark Cloud 1-2", etc. I would love to see rares like 'Haunting Ground", 'Rule Of Rose" and 'Blood Will Tell" where Atlus realized there was money to be made reselling their rares unlike Capcom and Sega.

edit: At the end of the day the PS3 had a much wider and BETTER set of exclusives over PS4 and I love my PS4. I think this is part of the reason people were so pissy how "bc" was handled by way of PSNow with a fee....ugh.

Woah, you caught me! I was curious to see the discussion continued by you and amok. The fact that I lost the will to keep discussing the topic doesn't mean I was completely disinterested. How foolish of me!

What I don't understand is where this animosity has come from. The fact you characterised one of my posts as "throwing a punch" says a lot about how you seem to have seen our exchange.

Two small additions, hardly altering the entire post. And whoops, looks like you edited yours while I was replying!

You flatter yourself. The discussion was fair, then was ended amiably enough. The fact that you couldn't resist continuing the debate by proxy, refusing to accept that my other exchange had come to a close, speaks volumes of the fact that, perhaps, to you, the debate had ended in a way you were uncomfortable with. If I appear to be treating you somewhat disdaintfully, the reason is solely your cheap jab to the back of someone walking away.

Editing? I was replying to your other post. The two replies will then be cojoined and show as edited. But you know this. Are you that short of ammunition?

It would be by proxy if I was telling amok what to say. I was simply interested in your response to amok's post... the disdain I saw was in the way you responded to amok and so I commented on that. I apologise if that post came across as a cheap jab, it was meant as a joking callback while trying to make an actual point.

Of course I know that, I just thought it was amusing.


I'm also not sure why you decided to do that one as a separate post. It clearly shows in both quotes of the post you were replying to.

SirPrimalform: Hey, just because I gave up on trying to get through doesn't mean you should deny amok the chance to try. After all, you didn't believe me about forever being forever. :P

StarChan: I'm certain that Amok can fend for himself. But you seem all eager to be publicly humiliated once more.
oh aye. nothing is forever, if that whats you want to argue. one day the sun will explode and entropy dictates the cold death of the universe. but until then, - digital goods can last. and perhaps by then we have the technology to move the cold shells of dead stars around to create digital patterns for Duke Nukem 3D to float around when the universe reach 0 kelvin

If next you start talking about quantum information and black holes, interesting though it be, this is where I leave. ;)

My error. It was the same post. However, once you had altered it, it was effectively brand new.

Peculiar, as the second part (alteration as you put it) shows in both quotes of my post. In other words the second part was already there when you started replying to the first part.

I think you know as well as I do that when you edit a post, it shows up edited in the reply as well, if the editing occurs before you post the reply. I will take the liberty to paste here the text in question, with your alterations and additions to the original in bold types. For all I know, there may be more. These were the ones I was quick enough to notice.

I am amazed that Sony has plans to release the PS5 with a disc drive in it, I am happy about this and the fact that you can play all your PS4 games on it so win win tbh, I am even tempted myself on getting some PS4 games to play on the PS5 when it drops. Does anyone here know if that Samurai game Ghost and sekiro are any good? I been eying them at E3 and hope they both turned out well.

That's not true at all. The quote is simply text incorporated into your own post, no editing I do can change what appears in your post.

Wrong again. I have taken the liberty of fixing your bolding. You can look at your own post in which you quote me in order to see the "before and after".

Oh and finally, my post 56 was actually referring to your double quoting of my post 52. Since the second part already appears in the first quote I just thought it was weird that you made a whole new (merged) post to reply to that.

I hardly think anyone but you and I will be bothered to read this exchange, so when you pretend not to have edited the part of the post I set out in bold, it only affects you, and me. You know that the post was edited according to what I indicated, and I know, because I saw the text changing while I was replying to your post. So why the pretence?
