This is what they have come to... Their first multiple platform title hasn't release yet and now they are developing IOS titles, I guess I might have to pick up an Ipod touch.

Next gen AAA phone title.

64 players + and deep story!
Probably not though..

morkendo234863d ago (Edited 4863d ago )

while you at it INSOMNIAC try making a full fledge RATCHET AND CLANK GAME WILL YA!!!

"ALL 4 ONE" sucked, "FULL FRONTAL ASSAULT" sucked. try making something close to "UP YOUR ARSENAL" "GOING COMMANDO"

dont be like EA with N4S one crapfest after another.criterion games made it worst combining Burnout engine to it and auto fu'king log...

DOMination-4863d ago

Im watching my gf play most wanted right now and I've been sat there thinking how the he'll the game got such good reviews. Its a technical mess, the world feels lifeless, there's absolutely no narrative or personality that the original had in regards to the 15 drivers.. Even the soundtrack is terrible and criterion are usually good at that. And seriously.. Rubber banding needs to die already. At least at that level when its so obvious.

Glad to see Im not the only one

hotrider124862d ago (Edited 4862d ago )

Agree, criterion games is a technical mess, it feel like burnout through an through. you would think at least a list to climb as the original MOSTWANTED had. the game by far sucks as morkendo above said it is craptastical.
what was EA thinking adding auto-log to the format???

Skate-AK4863d ago

Maybe it's a companion app for Fuse.

-MD-4863d ago

I would be hesitant to dump more time and money into an app for a game that's sure to bomb.

landog4863d ago

i havent really LOVED a game by them since ps2

i like ratchet future tools, it was pretty good, nothing compared to going commando or up your arsenal, resistance was mehhh.....part 1 and 2 were pretty good, 3 was a 7/10 at best for me

i wish they would go back to the going commando formula for r and c and i think resistance has potential as a franchise,

i think they will do some cool things next gen, they just haven't wowed me this gen at all

juandren4863d ago

And here I was, thinking I'm the only one who didn't like Resistance. I see it as the "bottom of the barrel" of PS3 exclusives

Knushwood Butt4862d ago

I loved FoM and R2 myself.

R3? Not so much.

abzdine4863d ago

end of glory for this ex-great developer

CommonSenseGamer4863d ago (Edited 4863d ago )

If there games had sold and I mean really sold, on PS3 I dare say they would have remained exclusive. However, the Resistance franchise was solid but definitely not AAA. Basically Kill zone set a standard on PS3 that no other FPS ON Sony's console came close to.

Unlimax4863d ago

After reading the main title for this report .. This is what happen to me

http://alltheragefaces.com/...

Activi$ion .. Give them back Spyro Before they start doing something much stupid than this .

KMCROC544862d ago

That be cool if Activision got them to make a multi platform spyro or crash seeing how Act. Owns the IPs.
would definitely buy those games.

Insomniac Games Has To Figure Out How to Break the 'Normal' Gameplay Loop in Marvel's Wolverine

For a mutant who can't die, how will Insomniac Games adjust the healing mechanic in Marvel's Wolverine?

Knocked out is still an option. So are being captured or restrained. Then there's potential for fatigue being a factor or just putting limits on how many times you can come back from healing quickly, making it also something you upgrade throughout the game.

Really not a hard thing to gamify, honestly. Just look at the last wolverine game.

StarcrossedBits238d ago

Yeah, this is very silly. Wolverine's not invincible and he can actually die anyway. This isn't the Superman problem. The 360/PS3 game handled it great.

Deadpool is another example. That guy literally can't die because Death won't take him. But they still figured out a way to make a game around him.

jambola238d ago

Probably just have a health bar, only a tiny minority will probably be bothered by "oh but adanced healing" nonsense
Injustice was successful, people didn't cry about superman being beaten by humans

Juancho51237d ago

Ive seen enough to know that whatever they do will focus heavily on insane combos and dismemberments and all kinds of cool shit we wish we'd seen years ago as wolverine fans.

This is in great hands, all open world games get stale, I'm sure this game is going to be GOTY contender because of the talent behind it, but I hope its doesn't fall into any traps that make the world feel empty or underutilized.

LFG tho!! EXCITED.

BlackCountryBob237d ago

Of all the things to worry about, this feels like the lowest ebb. I’d perhaps be more concerned about how they can find enough variety in the combat mechanics to stop a 10-12 hour game from becoming a bit samey, even if they get that main combat gameplay loop to be incredibly satisfying.

Obviously Wolverines claws will remain the main combat method, but thinking about how God of War benefited from (and differentiated itself from predecessor’s) by increased verticality in combat and also ranged attack mechanics, I’d be interested to see what Insomniac can come up with.

__SteakDeck__237d ago

Jean Gray will be playable for a portion of the game. That’s how they’re going to spice it up.

LoveSpuds237d ago

Interesting to hear to views os such an experienced game developer/designer.........wha t's that, you just a random dude off the internet....
