Here's yet another example of a developer showing one thing and delivering something different. This crap needs to stop. It really is false advertising/baiting and switching. I understand consoles are far inferior to pc hardware but even when you demo a game at a convention like e3 running on pc, the majority of the masses will believe their consoles are going to look the same. While they may be incompetent to the inner workings of the game industry's advertising/marketing tactics and scheming, they are not at fault for it. These big time developers/publishers need to be held accountable and I am not just suggesting we stop purchasing their products. I am suggesting legal action and punishment.

Despite receiving mostly high scores and praise from review sites and gaming publications, Namco Bandai's Dark Souls II is the subject of a controversy over its in-game graphics. PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 gamers have taken to the Internet to voice their collective displeasure regarding what they feel are significantly downgraded graphics compared to the preview footage Namco Bandai made available prior to the sequel's release.
