Beggar Prince - new Sega Genesis RPG: now shipping!

[poieo]

That was my point. Nobody cares what Play says about anything. As for your reading comprehension, better luck next thread.

And on top of that, if all you care about is what advertising effect a negative review has, eat shit and die.

For what it's worth, I like PLAY magazine and look forward to getting it every month. SOME of the content is very entertaining and well-written. That being said, I DON'T trust the reviews and I don't have a lot of respect for the publisher. Anyone notice how the last issue had the new Sonic The Hedgehog game on the COVER and gave the 360 version a review score of 9.5? Compiled scores from GameRankings.com give it a 4.7 and that's not good. Seems like Play's reviews and covers are available for sale to the highest bidder. I remember a few issues ago where the editor said that Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness was a great game that had been dumped on unfairly. That game sucked.

I guess I'm in waaaaaay over my head debating this matter with an internet troll like you. I've seen about half of your fifty posts, all of which flame other people.

I've noticed that as well. I've got a feeling he won't be here for much longer. Shit, it's probably Tony_Good or some other 'tard like that.

Ah yes. The time tested stance that pointing out idiocy is "trolling". Swift dodge, sir.

The only idiot is a guy who can't go 2-3 posts without cursing or attacking people. You have less than 60 posts and they are all garbage filled with name calling or curses. One post reads "Eat shit and die." You have two or three posts in another thread accusing other people of being "pussies." I seem to remember a couple f-bombs you've wrote. I'm aware this is a message board for all ages and I'm not the language police but no credible member around here regularly curses in their posts like you do.

As for my original point, most game developers would rather have a lukewarm review from a magazine than not even get mentioned in the magazine at all. The only people who care what magazine is writing the review are stupid fanboys. Do you think RockStar games or Nintendo cares whether it is Gamepro, EGM, Game Informer or Play reviewing their game? You seem to think it is a bad thing for the people who produced Beggar Prince to get their game reviewed in Play or any other magazine you don't like.

You're no troll, you got me there. You're a cancer. Guess I stooped to name calling, too. Oops!

I really hate to just flat out agree with you bangtango, but I'm going to anyway. I have now spent a large portion of the last month meeting new people here and having friendly adult conversations about our beloved hobby. For the most part, this board consists of adults who are sensible and use logic in conjuring up arguments. But this guy decided to hop into the Wii thread that Anthony created and fire up a huge storm against me and accuse me "of having no perspective for someone who worked for EB." You can disagree with people---that is all well and fine. But you don't have to be vindictave and cruel. If we wanted that we would go to the gamefaqs boards. Thanks, I feel I've made my peace now

Fixed.

Retro Gamer magazine (England) worked a rather lovely, 3-page Beggar Prince feature into their 28th issue. Though the magazine shipped in September, 2006, I just recently received high-quality scans of the feature. So, without further ado:

Just ordered mine. When does the second batch ship out?

Thanks, we appreciate your order.

Your order will very likely be shipped on Monday. Watch for the e-mail confirmation.

[goldenaxeboy]

Sorry to bring this topic back from the dead but I wanted everyone to know I ordered my copy a couple of months back.

[bangtango]

Now completely sold out, says the Beggar Prince web site, for the benefit of people who haven't been around here the past 5-6 months.
