Damn i forgot about that DN game, i doubt it would be good tho.
>>
How good a game developer is can be directly correlated to how they support Nintendo consoles.

The more support they give, the better the developer. This is why Capcom, who is actively refusing to release new Nintendo titles, is becoming worse and worse every year while Sega, who has actually been giving reasonable support, is doing a little bit better overall.

because it's run by sjws and numales

Kill yourself

People only need to look towards borderlands and alien colonial marines to know Gearbox doesn't have consumers in mind.
>>
Remember when Randy said he was with Gabe Newell on a poker game, where they were deciding the names for their companies, then Gabe said it never happen and Randy went "lol i was just kidding"?
>>
>>386024957
Yes.

>developer tries to bring back one of the most iconic fps shooters from the 90s, and gearbox doesn't need to pay one cent for it beacuse it will be crowdfunded by the development team
>fuck you by Gearbox

>~~le Bulletstorm HD, a remaster nobody asked for and THE EPIC DICK KICKEM as a playable character (DLC)
>Gearbox is ok with this

It's over for Gearbox.

This really happened?

>>386026836
He was on one of Ready Player One's trailers.
>>
>>386026915

I doubt a tiny cameo is going to get them a "shitload" of money. There were like 30 cameos in the trailer alone and I doubt they are shelling out major cash to have the likes of Duke show up for a second.

It's true doe. MvC looks like it's about to be buried by dragon ball and fucking anime+Rwby.

But what the fuck does this have to do with Gearbox?
You sure you didn't posted this in the wrong thread?

Opposing Force was the only good thing to come from Gearbox

>>386028618
The Halo CE PC port was pretty good. They added a bunch of cut stuff to multiplayer and added support for custom maps. So two things, and it will probably end there.
>>
Gearbox is a fucking garbage company, but really now, how many fucking ports and remakes do we really need of Duke Nukem 3D? I've had my fill, I'm good, I'm sure they would have done a really great remake but I can only fight pig cops so many times.

Don't tell me you wouldn't do the same in his situation.

>release the game for free
If their offer was selling it for 60 bux each copy and gearbox gets 98% cut, they would get accepted
>>
I'll never understand why anyone thinks the 20th anniversary edition is good when the megaton edition not only features all official expansions. It also has cross platform multiplayer support for windows, max OS and Linux with steam workshop support with and editor to create your own levels and also has a separate PS3 and vita crossplay support. All for 10-15 dollars depending on sale price and region.

I think he meant free for Gearbox, as in they wouldn't have to fund the project.

>>386030718
Oh yeah, I just reread the sentence and it seems like you said.
>>
>>386030874
Yeah sorry you're right. Now that I think about it this game is all about nuances. The marketed it as "badass" but this whole time they were just trying to tell us that it's bad and it's ass. The marketing campaign was a success all along.

Desu, /v/ is only interesting when something like this happens. Randy hasn't said anything embarrassing in a while.

It's not f2p, it's a fucking trial system.

Randy can't even make a game f2p.
>>
>>386031443
As much as I hate them at least they're successful for some reason.
Gearbox is a fucking failure no matter how you look at it, they've been irrelevant for years and their games are shit.
>>
I don't even care to laugh at Randy anymore, at this point I just wish he would have the sense to kill himself
>>
>>386024957
Because Randy is still in charge.

for real though, this is the dumbest thing I've read today.

I liked the Brothers In Arms games. God I wish someone else could have the IP.

that's a real shame, hopefully it would be good and maybe redeem the Duke slightly.

Friendly reminder that Randy Pitchfork got so upset over a tweet that he wrote this incredible piece of music and performed it during a live stream.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IPZTRCu664
>>
>>386032642
>during a live stream
No, he performed it in front of a live audience which is even worse.
>>
>>386032642
I still refuse to watch this because I always get second hand embarassment from watching people do stupid shit.
>>
>>386032770
And the audience was a bunch of obese fucks too.
>>
>>386032770
Yes he did, at PAX if I remember correctly, but it was definitely being live streamed on Twitch.
>>
>>386032834
Well yeah, that way he was sure nobody would get up and leave, they would rather have to endure his dumbass song than move their fat ass.
