Bungie brags about PS Blog Game of the Year Award
/facepalm...
Thats so damn embarrassing... thats like a developer bragging about a good review they got from Game Informer.
I cant wait for this weeks fluff-date to have more back-patting over a job well done. I think the psychology at Bungie has become the following:
[quote]Dont address community concerns. Continue to stretch gameplay as thin as possible in place of content. Strong-arm players for $$$. Smile and tell everyone how great your game is. If we do this long enough, it must be true.[/quote]
A lie told long enough, eh Bungie?
Well, in between [url=https://twitter.com/bungie/status/543547273448140803]giant cupcake parties[/url] and the once-a-week pulse check, perhaps you should put your ear to the ground?
[u]Gamespot[/u]: didnt win on any console, GOTY was SoM, didnt even place in the player's choice top 5
[u]Polygon[/u]: didnt even rank in the top 10
[u]IGN[/u]: although the GOTY hasnt been announce, Destiny isnt even a nominee
[u]Edge:[/u] Nope, Bayonetta 2
[u]EGM[/u]: Nope, DAI
[u]Eurogamer[/u]: Nope, MK8
[u]Gameradar[/u]: well shit... you won one... before you get too happy, look at the comments by readers in the GOTY article, might actually be more humbling than had you not won...
[u]Game Revolution[/u]: Nope, DAI
[u]GameTrailers[/u]: Nope, HS... (seriously?)
[u]Giant Bomb[/u]: Nope, SoM
[u]Joystiq[/u]: Nope, Som
[u]Kotaku[/u]: Doesnt appear to be doing a GOTY this year... just a top 12 games, in no particular rank, of which, Destiny is one... so grats on at least 12th place?
[u]Metacritic[/u]: Nope, SSB
So what I am really saying, Bungie, is Congratulations! What a [i]prestigious[/i] award! You should be really [i]proud[/i] with the game you have made. As I am sure you are aware, the players couldn't be happier!

8 RepliesI would brag too if I tricked millions of people into buying worthless shit. Wait no I wouldn't I actually have a soul.

3 Replieslol it's like getting your mom to say you are kid of the year. Fags.

24 RepliesIt's called PR. They need people that don't play the game to think it's great so they buy it. They have a 10 year plan and at this point if they want anyone to be playing it by then they will need all new people as most everyone already playing will have burned out long before 10 years gets here.

Bungie could of made so much more money with anyone but Activison.

Sony had to give it to them, after all the money they spent marketing Destiny for the PS4 and securing console exclusivity on certain strikes and shit for a year.

22 RepliesEdited by CarnivalLaw: 1/9/2015 6:12:41 PM$500,000 to produce a game that wins one blog "award". Stunning, isn't it? Oops: makes that $500,000,000

How in the -blam!- was Destiny even considered for game of the year? It's a broken, messy, shell of a game. Maybe, turd of the year? Disappointment of the year?

1 ReplyAre they not allowed to have somebody like them? Geez man.

1 ReplyPeople also realize that Playstation sunk a lot of money in to Destiny and try to publicize a game that is getting poor reviews in a good light. Why do you think PS has so many exclusives compared to Xbox. MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY. Greedy cockbites both Bungie and Activison.

If you got a award you'd brag too. "Look tommy I got a participation trophy are you jealous HAHAHAHAH"
-
2 RepliesIt's only a matter of time. If Bungie maintains the game's current trajectory through HoW, a lot of people will stop playing. Game's only been out 4 months, so we're all still hopeful Bungie can turn things around.

What? It won an award and bungie is saying thanks. You're reaching, bud...

Going to have to bump this bungie..sorry,I love the game but I know there's faults..your so focused on rubbing your greatness in people's faces but it's having the wrong effect, Now the cheesing..funny how you put so much effect into that after your 2 week's off but can't give us a new cloak from the speaker in 3 months...your Christmas noobs will soon be bored like the rest of us and your be wanking in to your overdrafts soon enough Refresh your shit!!

1 ReplyDark Souls 2 is a much better candidate (even though its arguably the weakest of the souls games and is last gen lol)

2 RepliesHow can they win a goty when the whole game isn't out yet?

1 ReplyEdited by hafevil333: 1/9/2015 7:13:56 PMBump. They got that award with great help from their exclusive deal with Sony.

12 RepliesI don't care for any of those reviews...most I don't read...the sheer volume of players that criticize the game are the same ones that continue to log in every day and still play the game...if you don't like it and feel the same way as these reviews, then don't play, to simple...why continue playing a game you feel is one of the worst games ever?
