GTA IV just looks like it has more personality.

wow4u6651d ago

Im thinking APB looks the most interesting in the sandbox-chaos genre.

Skerj6651d ago

Brutal Legend and Prototype wins over all of the sandbox games!!

Official General6651d ago

It does'nt look like this game is gonna sway a majority GTA crowd their way. GTA 4 just looks too polished, refined and exctiting enough so much, that not much heads are gonna pay too much attention to Saints Row 2. More importantly, GTA's legendary name and rep for delivering outstanding titles in gaming history is written in stone, on a global scale. Having said that, if it's very good I see no reason to have a look at it and see if it's worth buying. But it still most probably will not be better than GTA 4.

My favourite GTA game was Vice City and San Andreas was really good, but both titles had some significant things missing to make them complete. GTA 3, with it's gritty New-York style setting could have been the best one on last-gen, but it had way too many missing aspects (eg. motorbikes. GTA 4 just looks like it is everything all the previous last-gen GTA's should have been, and Saints Row will not even have a slim chance of surpassing this!

There are some hardcore fans of this genre -- that GTA still seems to be the peak.

But, there is enough fans of the mayhem sandbox game for more than one title.

Personally, I'm incredibly excited for A.P.B. & GTAIV.

Storm236651d ago

It could be fun I guess, but it will never take me away from GTA4. And because it is getting released late this year, it will be very hard to squeeze it in with the other incredible games coming out.

wow4u6651d ago

You should try and make some time for SR2 (if what is said below) and/or A.P.B., their co-op and Xbox LIVE gameplay are where (for me at least) the real innovative gameplay will be coming.

It looks like GTAIV has concentrated more on the story-narrative, while A.P.B. & SR2 appear to be about new gameplay features.

Premonition6651d ago

For me its GTA4 any day first then saints row later.

OOG FunK6651d ago

saints row could be interesting due to the co op but we shall see i guess

Broken Games That Never Got Fixed

While a lot (like way too many) games launch in sorry states these days, a lot of them do eventually get polished up over time fixes. The same can’t be said for these properly broken games.

Worst for me is wipeout 2048.
I got gold in every single player race, made it extremely far into the great online shop platinum was a finger away.. then lost all my online progression. Many players experienced the same and hadn’t been fixed since

joab777283d ago

Cyberpunk and No Mans Sky are obviously the 2
best comeback stories. Cyberpunk is literally one of the best RPGs ever made now.

Christopher282d ago

I wouldn't call NMS broken at release, just under-delivered.

Michiel1989283d ago

junctioning is only broken now because it's been datamined which monster which gives which card and which card gives which items and every single spell to junction with the highest points for each stat. For it's time when that info wasn't readily available it was good, not without it's flaws, but not broken,

-Foxtrot283d ago

Exactly. I never got this because what made it broken was the knowledge of what to exploit.

Playing the game for the first time back then you never had any knowledge to make it so easy.

One minute the Junction system is complicated, the next it's super easy / broken. What is it?

gold_drake282d ago

i mean, ff8 is not "broken" per se, its just that the junction system is too good and easily exploited even an hour into the game. haha

Ashunderfire86282d ago

Star Wars Jedi Survivor is one of them. I can’t get in the Cantina bar later on in the game. The door and other doors throughout the environment is locked off. It is a shame, because I wanted to complete the game, but I can’t until they fix it.

You know usually when someone says "you may have missed" it's games that were lesser known, hidden gems, underrated games. These are all super high profile games that sold extremely well.

FPS_D3TH1242d ago (Edited 1242d ago )

You know the 2000s is 20 years ago too? Maybe, just maybe this wasn’t an article targeted to 30+ gamers? Still says at the very beginning of the title “THE BEST GAMES you may have missed”. Regardless of how well they sold there’s tons of gamers who haven’t touched these older well known games lol.

Welshy1242d ago (Edited 1242d ago )

It's games you "may have missed", insinuating you were around and gaming in the 2000's and were there to miss them. If it was aimed at everyone else then they missed literally everything, not just the top games.

The original commenter is right, this is a badly written article at best pointless at worst.

Crows901242d ago

Besides only being able to miss it if you were around during that time..if your point stands then this is a horrible list. Tons of better games people may have missed

XxINFERNUSxX1243d ago

I would like the original max payne remade in a new engine with ray tracing. 😊

FPS_D3TH1242d ago

Remedy games already working on that and I’m so stoked for it

XxINFERNUSxX1242d ago

Oh yeah thanks for reminding me I totally forgot they were doing it. Also what the hell happened to Kingpin: Reloaded? On Steam coming soon and nohting from the dev.

MadLad1242d ago

Yeah, I was just going to say. It's interesting seeing them back behind the series. Max Payne 3 was amazing, but then Rockstar just sat on the IP.
Well, they sit on virtually anything that isn't GTA and Red Dead now.

porkChop1242d ago

What is this list? These are all hugely popular games. I was expecting games like Dark Messiah of Might & Magic, Advent Rising, Arx Fatalis, etc.

FPS_D3TH1242d ago

the title didn’t say lesser known titles from the 2000s. This is 20 years ago now lol. Big assumption this list was made for older gamers.

Dirty_Lemons1242d ago

That makes me feel so old.

Inverno1242d ago

I've only played 3 on that list. Part of me feels bad about how little I used all the consoles I've owned as a kid. One bright side is, there's over 30 years of games to experience for the first time.
