   Don't Buy Our Game!
BBC News Service.Apparently, Ubisoft neglected to test their Xbox360 version of Kong on a normal telly (the kind that most people in the WORLD own). Now its been released, they have realised that it is near on unplayable unless played on a HDTV...They are telling people to only buy the current gen version.  Well done boys...  another stunning release and another reason not to buy an xbox360.  Daisy   
  I'm now more convinced than ever that (most) game-development shops don't follow anything even approaching good standards of software development. Imagine if they'd been asked to write missile-launch software instead. "Whoops -- we forgot to check to see if the blast bay doors were open before initiating the missile launch..."   ;  lol im glad im not dumb enough to buy an xbox360 - or any other console for that reason.I asked my buddy earnestly the other day why he bought an xbox360. His response was something like "its so awesome; it can do almost as much as a computer can do"To that I replied, "my computer can do exactly as much as a computer can do", then I punched him in the stomach.   ;Quote:Original post by AndreTheGiantlol im glad im not dumb enough to buy an xbox360 - or any other console for that reason.I asked my buddy earnestly the other day why he bought an xbox360.

It’s a good thing we have museums to document that. - Bill Gates   ;Quote:"I'm a bit disappointed that we didn't see it when we were developing the game," he told the BBC News website.Give this man the understatement of the year award...   ;  LOL.  All that money spent on development and they never once tested on a regular TV?  Hahahaha.I'm guessing someone just posted a fresh resume on monster.com.   ;  Apparently the engine is running but noone is behind the wheel :D[tin-foil-hat]or perhaps it is a diabolical scheme to force people to buy HDTVs!!!11111one[/tin-foil-hat]   ;  I don't see the problem.  It's just another Doom 3 clone. [wink]
