Sounds more of a "paid beta" scenario to me:

He continued, "EA’s view is that the PDLC costs a lot less to develop (essentially, it’s the first few levels of the full-blown game), and they have the opportunity to fix whatever needs to be fixed in the packaged product that is released a few months later, whether that entails doing more of what people like or doing less of what they don’t like. It sounds like a brilliant strategy to me." Gamasutra has contacted EA for further clarification about the new strategy.

Still shit, in my opinion. Unless the money paid could net you a discount off the final product. Which I don't see happening.

I like the hub worlds, but the map is good too, I suppose.

 Never been a fan of hubs.  All you do is walk around, it doesn't add to the game.  In Psychonauts the hub was the worst part fo the game, you could even get lost.

I like the exploration in them. Lots of secrets to find, stuff like that.

 Paying to de-bug a game.  It's like we are all in an episode of "The Tester".

I already have Liberty City Stories You should get Red Steel 2. It has PS Move 1:1 controls right here, right now for you to try.

So are you going to give me the experience of playing LCS through the internet somehow.

Send me some money I will try it out for you, then send the copy to you, but its probably region locked.

ONM scans, of their Red Steel 2 review. It scored a 93%

Just picked up the latest copy of ONM and according to them they have the world's first review of Red Steel 2. Needless to say, they gave it a 93%. They said it looks incredible, controls are well done, combat is perfectly pitched, well balanced but has a few control issues.

It's this, only slightly more fun.  

Now buy a third party wii game at full price. Or get a PSP and MGS. You're choice, Iga will have your ass otherwise!

Hey! I called dibs!  

Jack the Ripper game confirmed (story above).

I don't think it's appropriate to profit  from  games/ movies about real world serial killers.  I support their right to make stuff like this, it's just not for me.

I know it was from 150 years ago, or whatever, but it's no different if they made a game about Jeffrey Dahmer or Charlie Manson.
