Or rather the Unreal Engine wasn't built for the system which said game was running on? regardless of which, I don't care, because all the Unreal games I've seen running on the PS3 have been just fine. The PS3 is more than capable of playing those games to a satisfactory level.

The PS3 versions of both BioShock and BioShock 2 (prominent UE3 games) had quite a few problems before they were patched, and neither of them was patched just once. Yes, both games run fine now, but it was a somewhat rocky start. There's something in Unreal Engine 3 that just doesn't fit the PS3 as well as it does the X360.

Its a video game. You lost 30 hours of your life whether your save got corrupted or not.

You're basically asking for a free DLC for inconvenience. That's a bit whacky.


Maybe I'm Jaded here, but I think it's a bit more than an "inconvenience".  I mean, if you went to the theatre to see [whatever movie] and twenty five minutes from the end, the projector breaks down -- and you are given two options:
1)  Go home and forget about it or
2)  Wait a few minutes while they restart the movie in an adjacent room

Wouldn't you be a little upset?


Lets be real: that's not even close to being the same thing.

If you go to the movies and it breaks down near the end, you get to see the same movie again at no extra cost. You're probably not entitled to a free popcorn on top of that, but I guess if you whine loud enough and they're open to it, you might.

If you rent a game from Blockbuster and it doesn't work, you get to play another version of that game at no extra cost. You don't get a free rental on top of that. I've never seen that happen.

If a game at home works but is bugged, you get to download a patch that fixes it at no extra cost. You don't get a free dlc on top of that.

This is how the world realistically works. People owe you a fix to their mistake at no extra cost, but asking for extra goodies for inconvenience is pushing it. You might as well sue them instead.

That's because it was built for the 360. The PS3 does not like it. Some people might be satified with "satifactory" running of a game but really when you're paying full price for a game that doesn't work and it doesn't work, whether it's an out of sync video or a corrupted save it's just not good enough.

All you complainers just sound like little kids whining. You act like you are owed everything.


Baa! Baa! Baa!

Shear the sheep!

You did not answer his question, would you be upset or not?

And in a sense you are right, they are not obligated to give us extra "goodies", but it is nice and also makes you think, "That company is nice, I mean sure they gave me a half assed product, but they fixed it and gave me bonus items too! I´ll be buying from them again if they care about their customers this much."

An example would be that when we first got satellite tv, it was not installed right and the company did not come back to fix it for a week. We were angry, but when they fixed it they gave us a month of free service on top of that. We decided to stay with the company.

A company has no obligation to give extra items to make up for a mistake, but it sure does help.
