Ever since I saw the E3 reveal trailer and knowing it was Ready at Dawn doing it I was sold. Love the atmosphere. Gameplay looks really nice. Don't care if it's linear, if it tells a great story and I am having fun I'll be more than happy. Of course I hope they nail everything, and I hope they keep the QTEs spread out.

I do like that you have options during the QTEs but I'm generally not a fan, but it does give the developer some cinematic tools to really brin...

I don't think it matters. Just the first lycan being born told as the old horror fairytales/bedtime stories. Great promo. Would even stand on its own as a great little short story. Very well told.

Maybe they will expand on it, maybe he is in the game, but he really might as well not be. Don't know their age length, and Bobby was the very first one. They said the war has been going on for a long time and the Knights aren't necessarily the original knights.

Fantastic promo. Very twisted. Like old bed time stories/fairy tales Grimm style.

Hope for mixture of a awesome story, survival horror/thriller gameplay (they've hinted at it plenty) as well as the all out action.

Would play it for visuals alone. It's a piece of art. To think some people thought when they first showed it (E3 reveal) that it was pre-rendered...

For these reasons I know I won't be wasting $60.

His hat always looked sharp, but man does it look like it would do some serious damage now :P.

That's the thing, it's done by one person. There are incredibly experienced artists that could pull this off better, but I'd say this artist is fairly inexperienced and looking for some attention. It in no way reflects on the capabilities of Unreal. Almost all of the things people associate with the Unreal 4 look can be disabled and changed completely.

This game is the one I look forward to the most but the lack of decent anti-aliasing is really bothering me. I do hope it gets released on PC as well for this reason. Infamous SS, Watch Dogs, and other open world games have managed to do great (or at least decent) anti-aliasing on new-gen consoles, it's really important to the overall look of the game.

Friend of mine, casual gamer, got the PS4 in September with Destiny and has since then only played PS+ titles (including Injustice) and he feels he's gotten his money worth several times over. For us passionate gamers who pick up most games on release, it's mostly for online gaming and other smaller features but there are tonnes of casual gamers out there who get plenty of value out of PS+. Remember when all you got from XBL was online? Yet you are still complaining now that you also ...

I'm a video-game fan, not a "insert company X here" fan and I thouroughly enjoyed PS4 titles Driveclub (still enjoying it), Infamous SS, Killzone Shadowfall, Infamous First Light. As for non exclusives there's been some great ones this year too. I enjoyed Watch Dogs and the short but sweet Metal Gear Ground Zeroes, currently enjoying AC Unity, DA Inquisition and FC4.

I probably would have enjoyed Sunset Overdrive from the Twitch footage I've seen but one...

F Off, Driveclub was tonnes of fun and got at least 25 hours out of me. And they've kept delivering with the DLC which has been fun. Despise lists like these, they only exist to shit on developers (ie, people).

Personally I think that kind of spending is disgusting considering what's going on in the world... Seriously, no one needs that house. You can get a perfectly nice house for a fraction of what he's paying for that. Thought as a Swede he'd have some conscience but I guess not.

He told nonconstructive a holes to go f themselves. He didn't tell all gamers to go f themselves. Big difference. I am not convinced with his game, but I am not an a hole who need to jump on forums and throw slander at someone because of it.

Original PT environment was probably made by one guy as well -- but a very seasoned artist. Maybe the few character moments were done by someone else. That's based on my experience as a developer. Of course the very effective sound was done by another person.

But this guy did a good job and if he's not in the industry it's great promo material. A bit of lack of imagination perhaps but it's bullet proof for getting attention.

I actually thought she was cute. Yeah, the cleavage is unnecessarily big but she's like a caricature. Like Paul with his weird ass hair. Or that Robot girl. I'm really boo'ing the decision the remove her for the US release.

After having just finished GTA V, it's even more absurd. All the sick shit that went on in that game, but we can't have a cute/sexy girl because somehow that's demeaning? I don't buy that part of feminism. I agree that all shoul...

I disagreed because I am glad we got Unity this year and Glad we are getting Victory next year. It's not like they don't have enough people or money invested in each one, it's that this time they made some poor decisions -- probably due more to ambition (The game is freakin' huge and gorgeous) rather than at a cheap attempt at a cash-in.

Of course getting it out by the Holiday was important -- but if we want to keep having big budget games I feel we have to b...

I don't know, I feel it's a company's responsibility to provide a safe work environment for their employees. This was his job, the company should have made the research to make sure his job was safe and that he had adequate cooling.

I enjoyed the beta, it's a pretty fun game with tonnes to do and huge world. My biggest problem with it is its graphics. It really affects me to the point that I am not that interested :/. I expect a lot more these days.

So that means those of us who don't get motion sick shouldn't get to get it either?

Fad? It hasn't even come out yet, how can say it's a fad? What's hopefully a fad are gamers who try to force or predict their own preferences onto others.

Also, you know Dying Light has been delayed several times, it was supposed to come out a year ago originally so there's a good chance they have polished the game plenty.

The game looks fantastic, if they add VR support I'll be very happy. Alien Isolation would have also benefited from VR...

Disagree, Halo 4 was one of the best Halo titles in my opinion. Biggest problem I've always had with Halo titles, including 4, was the lack of diversity in enemies. When they wanted to make it more difficult, they just threw more enemies at you instead of introducing tougher enemies. I didn't like Reach. Not getting an XB1 (Quantum Break? Unless there's a PC version) until there's a good reason to so have no opinion about the Master Chief Collection.

Beta look...

Outside of GOW, has he really done anything great? Not trying to knock him, most people don't make even one hit game but it's difficult to compare him to designers who have created several hit titles. There was talks that Corey is the one that really made the combat system what it was -- but he _seems_ to have a big ego so I am not sure how true that is. Stig did well on GOW 3, IMO the best in the series (or at least tied with GOW 2) but it seems his latest project didn't go so we...
