I am unaware of any changes to cutscenes.

Maybe they should just patch the songs out.

I could swear I recall San Andreas having a similar issue. More that the music license passed. So they patched it out.

That was supposedly why Vice City disappeared for a while a year or so back, the licensing on the music (10 years, presumably) lapsed and had to be extended.

Rapper wants Rockstar to pay up or destroy all units of GTA5

 

Yeah, somebody really should have realized that when he said "No" to the money, that didn't mean "Go right ahead, no payment necessary".

 

Pffft, what a loser. He should be grateful that they even were interested in his music. A true artist would be happy that more people are experiencing the results of his craft and not care one silch about any monetary gain.

I'm surprised Rockstar did not try to secure a license not limited in time. My knowledge of U.S. licensing law is spotty, but surely that's an option?

Agree with the review or not, I don't see how Bioshock Infinite deserves a lower score than Resident Evil 6 and Aliens: Colonial Marines. Gamespot gave those titles a 4.5.

Maybe I am used to these kind of reviews, ever played Hybrid Heaven? Read this:

...but good god, that game was awesome!

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

they earned 800 million on the first day.

Remember: Argue the point, not the person. Remain polite and constructive. Friendly forums have friendly debate. There's no shame in being wrong. If you don't have something to add, don't post for the sake of it. And don't be afraid to post thoughts you are uncertain about, that's what discussion is for.

Reviews... hmmm. My Amazon reviews teach me that:

 

(a) People are awesome and love my stuff

 

(b) Some people are still awesome, even though they don't love my stuff because they tell me why

 

(c ) Some people aren't awesome and they slag my stuff for the sake of it. But, hey, they paid their money so fair enough

 

(d) Haters gonna hate.

 

Reviews are pretty much pointless unless they come from someone on the same wavelength as you. I get reviews from people who preface their piece with "This genre isn't my thing..."

 

It's like me writing a review for a vampire romance when I hate vampire romances. I just don't get it.

Suckeeeer! You caught up to my bait like a salmon in a spring fjord :D

 

I doubt that it will even get to court. R* will pay a sum of money for him to drop the charges.

I imagine Glee creators' replies to accusations of them stealing Johnathan Coulton's "Baby Got Back" cover when I read this. They didn't even give him as much as a mention in the credits, which makes it rather funny.

One of the (many) reasons Dave Grohl is awesome: He told Glee to **** off when they asked him if they could perform a FF song.

 

The asshat who produces Glee accused Dave of 'hating music' as a result. LOL. Glee is evil. It is evidence that the Devil walks among us.

It'd be an option, yes. But the only version that would be selling in ten years would be the PC one, there'd be very little prospect of the PSBox versions selling that long, and we're talking about a 2002/3 (?) release where there was no PCDD option and unknown compatibility with new OS versions too. Under those circumstances a time limited licence would seem to be sensible because you probably wouldn't be selling the game that long.

I started playing Assassin's Creed 3, and I know you're supposed to hate it, but.. I've only played it for a couple of hours and so far I'm having a blast. It feels less pretentious than the other Assassin's Creeds (ILLUMINATI.. TEMPLARS.. IN YOUR FACE!) and the missions I've been given so far have been fun. It also runs extremely well on my system and the controls feels more streamlined now (only 23 buttons to keep track of instead of 56 thousand).

 

Oh, and it's absolutely beautiful to look at too. I like.

Your opinion is deeply flawed, you are suppose to hate AC3. Everyone knows that?

I think you need time to reflect on what you saying and then repost :skeptical:

So this is really interesting, GTA V has broken 6 Guinness world records !!! These include the fastest game to reach 1 Billion in sales revenue and the game that has generated the most revenue in 24 hours. We done Rockstar !!! You should be proud of yourself and all the hard work :)

Assassin's Creed IV looks more interesting to me than III, to be honest. Pirate setting + escaped slave protagonist (?) is more attractive than Colonial America which doesn't appeal to me at all.

After playing the sail side quest on 3 I began looking forward to 4 but i'm hoping that they learn to make their game experience more consistent both in the story and gameplay.

My problem with it was that I was screaming (well my voice was slightly raised a few points from normal anyways) at the screen about how stupid the AI was.

You see, ever since the whole Doritos Locos Tacos thing, Taco Bell thinks they can do whatever they want.

We keep getting Assassin's Creed games as if they were Call of Duty or something. I played the first three games in the series and after AC: Brotherhood, I sort of lost interest in the series. Hmmm, might AC3 be worth checking out? Because I am NOT going to explore Renaissance Italy for the third time.

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

I loved AC2, but It was a long game and I had no interest in revisiting the game in the expansions.  I'll pick up AC3 eventually on a good sale, I regret not getting it when it was 75% off a week ago.
