Re: Why i wont be buying HCEA *article*

In Response To: Re: Why i wont be buying HCEA *article* (General Vagueness)


: The porting process doesn't necessarily include that part of the game. This
: is a different product anyway that doesn't by definition include any
: single given thing from an older product-- it does include a critical
: minimum of things, but necessarily any specific thing.

False. A port, by definition, takes a game from one system and and makes it native to another system. Sometimes extras are added (see: Halo PC).

: I think the way the semantics are taken can say something about the
: viewpoints of those arguing, and your comment seems like support of that.

Sometimes, yes. In this case, no. In this case, you just have your definitions mixed up.

: If things were different I'd probably think (and there's a good chance I'd
: say) it speaks of entitlement, but in this case I think it's just wanting
: what you and some others want and not caring about what else is or isn't
: present, and that's understandable, it's human nature; the thing to
: recognize is not everyone's priorities will line up, both within the fans
: and within the content producers and adapters, and the mutliplayer element
: is the most questionable one to copy over (unless you just hate The
: Library that much ). I fully submit it might be nice to have XBL
: multiplayer and I would've liked to be able to play custom games with the
: original maps or even just LAN games and I'd like to know why that option
: wasn't included, but this fervor, and if I may say, this attitude, or
: something about it, seems unwarranted.

So you're saying we're mad only because we wanted it? Then why aren't people so upset about the lack of theater, etc? (Sure, we wish it was there, but it's not infuriating like the removal of LAN is.) We are mad because they are removing something that was in the original. Something that was considered very crucial to many people who played the original.

Also, if our attitude is unwarranted simply because we want something, then your attitude (that we're being babies about it) is unwarranted just because you don't want/care about the feature.
