Seriously the changes with games lately that people swallow and don't care about are atrocious. Fans didn't let it happen with DXHR becaue people actually spoke out.
Ignoring the gameplay, what is with the change of direction of Max Payne 3? How is a colourful game about gangster protection noir?, I'll like to see it f*** up for myself. WHY DID HE SHAVE HIS HEAD BUT NOT THAT BEARD

Yes
I thought that
I can imagine it now, Max Payne 3, an ex-cop gets caught up in a hacking conspiracy which he doesn't understand.
Now he has to fight this cybercrime, one bullet at a time
Also
Bullet time was like cover based shooting at the time, in that it was a mechanism to assist the character in defensive and tactical shooting
If they replace bullet time with cover based shooting I will die a little

They pretty much have, IIRC the only bullet time will be you on an inch of life going slow motion... kill someone and you get most of your health back.

I understand why cover based shooting was implemented
Going around with a "lets pick up this rotating Red cross to replenish my uber health" is unrealistic
But bullettime resolved this by "how do we resolve a weakish person when theres bullets flying everywhere, let them control the game in slower motion"
Worst case they could have a reverse exponential regenerative health model (the closer you get to 100% the slower it takes to regenerate) and this would complement bullet time, since the original had 25% regenerative health

Sweet Jesus they changed it. Cover still in but not important.

Yeah, that's large; but not a big deal. I'll just buy the disks instead.

It's a big deal when games you download are also upwards of 20gb but you only have, at best, a 25gb data cap.
Some people in NZ have twice that but it's much more expensive than what the US rates probably are. Some have unlimited but frankly, I'd probably end up gouging my eyes out at the horrible speeds those plans get capped at.

35GB isn't the problem
THE 8 CORE CPU and GTX 680 are the problems here

Yeah, I'm willing to bet it's not going to need an 8 core CPU.
I don't know of any games that are being developed solely for multi-core CPUs, let alone one with 8 cores.

If that's the only game then I consider that the exception, not the rule. Even if a handful of games do it then it's still not really common in comparison to how many games don't.
Though, I'll be lenient, I suppose. More games
are starting to be developed for multi-core processors, though I don't know any beyond that mentioned. Maybe I just don't look at system reqs as much I used to/probably should?
I'm not necessarily a big fan of games being developed with the requirements of a multi-core CPU but I suppose they're cheap and common enough now that it probably doesn't matter. I haven't seen a PC in a while being sold
without a multi-core CPU in it.

A shame, Rockstar. There was a time when you weren't shit.
Oh wait the only good games you made were derivatives of an accident

I HOPE ROCKSTAR WILL LEARN FROM THE MASS AMOUNT OF SALES THIS GAME WILL MAKE,
THAT THEY'LL NEVER MAKE THIS MISTAKE AGAIN.
It's sad, but true.
