this game engine is being overused and misused, look all the games that looks pretty much the same. the only games using this engine that looks different are only few. look that hour of victory game ,looks like crap. thats what i call misused.

The unreal Engine is the Shizznit. Unreal Engine 3, is also licensed by publishers and developers including Microsoft Game Studios,Sqeenix, Atari, Real Time Worlds, Namco, Midway, Silicon Knights, VU Games, THQ, and Sony Online, and others I probally missed.

If epic can get Japanese developers to start using their engine then they must like something about it. Epics flagship title (GEARS) really did a number on the minds of developers and publishers. After they seen that game, most just had to have a peice of that engine. After all Developers license the engines and make their own games. You act like its becasue of the Engine, that the game might come out crap.

NOT EVERY DEVELOPER IS CREATED EQUAL bro.

I really don't know what your complaining about. Engines do develope and can only get better with time. You will see some great titles come out, built on that Engine in years to come. Well if you want, you can Boycott any games that uses such engine, if it will make you feel better.

I'm not sure if its just me but I can't get enough of GEARS, I've beaten the game around 7 times and everytime I see it I just wanna play. Really its the Gritty look I like and the Player models...anyhow, some gamers complain about everything.. then again its your poragative so cheers to you mate.

i love gears too, but another engine like offset or crytek please can come handy. don't you think? something different.

Boring, just hurry up and make a new UE that's designed around the PS3's specs rather than the Xbox

silent ninja6916d ago

UE is good, its cheaper , and quick way to make games. what i hate is how some devs are using it. most games look alike which i don't like

and i think crytek can't be used on console system. atleast they can't handle the engine, that what i heard . even if it could be used most devs have already signed contracts with epic to use their engine and have started with their projects . it would stupid to abondone u game just get another engine

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle14d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg19d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree19d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai19d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde20d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy21d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12520d ago (Edited 20d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
