PlayStation LifeStyle Writes:
In July it was announced that the highly anticipated Heavy Rain would be delayed past Christmas into the next year, as "it's not ideal to release a new IP or a new genre just before Christmas". Guillaume de Fondaumiere stated that "it's a very crowded place to be, and certain games need more space to live their life." However, since the delay numerous games, such as MAG, Bioshock 2 and Alpha Protocol, would all be releasing in early 2010. At this year's Eurogamer Expo in London PlayStation LifeStyle asked David Cage, Quantic Dream's CEO, and writer and director of Heavy Rain, about his views on the packed release window.
Ben from Netto's Game Room takes a look at 7 video games where dying doesn't mean the end, as the story and world simply continue on without you.
We present a list of horror games with depressing endings, each known for its unique experience and storytelling.
"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.
I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.
I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.
No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.
2010 - The year of the games that were too chicken to release alongside Modern Warfare 2
The game really deserves to sell a lot, from what I've seen and played of it
I think it'll do fine. Hopefully well enough to warrant a sequel/more games in the genre!
I just wish they'd release it already. 2 E3's past with me drooling over the game, and I still don't have it. :'(
Best game of next year!
