The Perfect Game

Does it exist? If not, then why not? Resources? Lack of technical skill? Laziness? Maybe it’s already here. What does it mean to you? We all have one....

Really interesting read. It does seem devs just keep trying to smooth out things from the past generations in hopes of getting the formula perfect, but the nostalgia factor makes it almost impossible to make a perfect game as a result.

UnSelf5543d ago

good point. finding that balance between what its popular and working while implementing innovative but necessary changes i feel is prime in makin the first essential steps in tryna make a game as close to perfection as possible

though the term itself - perfect- is where the problem begins and ends

TheMysterion5542d ago

nope it's been done. It's called ocarina of time. The most fun I've ever had in a video game and definitely high up there in real life. It's the cliche for best game of all time and there's a reason

Chupa-Chupa5543d ago (Edited 5543d ago )

Yes, it's called "Uncharted 2: Among Thieves"

GOODKyle5542d ago

I am with this person 110%!!!!!!!!!!!

Saint-Revlot5542d ago

Everyone one is a fonboy of something. It's not his/her fault she loves the game so much.

MysticStrummer5542d ago

Yeah because it can't actually be their opinion, can it? Jesus, Jezuz. Has it come to this? A person can't actually like something? Fanboy is a very overused term, especially on N4G.

Jezuz5542d ago

Well, if it's an opinion wouldn't he put it as "IMO, i think Uncharted 2 is a perfect game" but the way he said it made it sounds like he's trying to say it as a fact and not an opinion.

Heartnet5542d ago

Yeh cuz he is being awesome lol.. im not a fanboy(IMO!! OMGZ!) and thats the kinda wording id of used just for the lolz :)

"Everyone one is a fonboy of something. It's not his/her fault she loves the game so much."

But in that aspect, why do people tend to ignore other qualities from other games and praise just one game as if its the epiphany of all?

Fanboy/girl or not, you have to a be real fool to ignore other games and their quality.

11/11/11 is the perfect date for the perfect game

No such thing as a perfect game. Never has been, never will be.

It all comes down to what game is perfect to YOU.

Jack-Pyro5542d ago

This^

What one person may consider to be perfect, another would find immediate flaws in.

Perfection, much like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing15d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9215d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit15d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing15d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9215d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
