Developer Commentary: The Greatest Feature Games Rarely Include

Bitmob: I recently played and finished Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge for the first time. Much to my surprise, my enjoyment didn't come from the game. Don't get me wrong -- LucasArts' Special Edition rerelease of Monkey Island is fantastic. I had a great time with it, and I say this as someone who's failed to fall in love with the entire point-and-click adventure genre. As impressed as I am that Monkey Island 2 could turn me around so easily, what grabbed me was the developer commentary.

more games need to include stuff like that. i'd also like to see concept artwork, unused levels, stuff like that. i wish games would provide the "complete" experience that dvds and blu-rays do.

GWAVE5775d ago

For developer commentary, look no further than MGS4 (if that's your thing). They have dozens of podcasts, including nearly 20 podcasts that are marked to be played at specific points of the game.

bearsfaan5774d ago

The original God of War had a really cool extra where you could walk around fully rendered models of characters that didn't make it into the game. I'd love to see that in more games.

rod_furlong5775d ago

Valve are the all-time pros at this.

Sadie21005775d ago

I try to buy special editions all the time, mainly because I feel I need to as a collector and I like the packaging. But I almost never find time to look at the behind-the-scenes stuff.

bbretterson5774d ago

That's why commentary like Valve's works. You experience it while you play the game.

I would buy a machine that is set up to how Kirito and Asuna play games in Sword Art Online

Inverno1933d ago

The world of Sword Art is something I don't think any developer right now will ever bother attempting to create. I've seen .Hack too and the games both those anime show is something I wish someone would make. A real life simulation presented in a medieval fantasy-esque aesthetic would make me quit real life in a heart beat lol

Software might be really buggy though...

Profchaos1933d ago

Maybe and maybe the flying car bug was really just a prediction of flying car software failure.

ScootaKuH1933d ago

If reality moves at 3 frames per second that is 😉

Kabaneri1933d ago

That sounds cool but imagine the social consequences some people would get really attached to that alternate reality.

Lore1933d ago

Dwight in Second Life comes to mind

Extermin8or3_1933d ago

Automate farming systems abd have computers feed us through tubes and live theblife you want.... lol wait what if the Matrix Is real? :?o :p

AFKghost1933d ago

I really dont give a flying monkey doodoo about all this futurism bs. Its really just sad, old timers on their way out desperately trying to stay relevant when they should have been making good games for the last 20 years.
