Wasn't Helldivers already a PSN+ game? Would it kill Sony to put a big AAA title in once in a while?
Exactly, game was supposed to release in 2015. Now it's releasing episodically (cash grab) and you have to wait a year to get the entire game. That's not how AAA games work IMO.
A year off wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion. Black Flag was amazing, Unity was great...but not at launch. Turns out Syndicate is amazing as well, but all the duplicate enemies is annoying. An extra year would probably allow for better variety of enemies and such.
I love the franchise, and it'll be a game I miss if one doesn't release this year, but it could only help in terms of quality and franchise fatigue.
The entire problem with this generation is everything is being rushed, and we're missing out on key elements of these franchises that we've gotten in the past. We get no Rainbow Six campaign, no Battlefront campaign. Hitman as a downloadable episodic game? Come on!
And even the delayed games still have day one updates and issues.....
Best value in gaming right here. So happy that Microsoft allowed it, although it really should be available on every platform. Shame I can't get it on PS4 like I do Xbox One. Sony really dropped the ball by saying this wasn't a value and making up gamers minds for them.
I seriously get a Frank Grimes feel from the media and gamers when it comes to Sony. They literally can do anything and people just make excuses for it.
It's about time someone said it. I remember the person who gave it a 7.5 was fired due to backlash. Since when is having a difference of majority opinion a bad thing?
The story was cliche but well done, but the gameplay was clunky and repetitive.
A lot of sites pander to the Sony crowd due to clicks generating revenue and you don't want to piss off the people who essentially pay your wages, but it's nice to see the fog lift a bit and see some places not see Sony o...
100% this. I don't recall any other generation where console gamers talked so much about resolution. Doesn't help that Sony were the ones trying to push this as being something significant.
I own a PS4 and Xbox One and have played a game at 900p on Xbox One and 1080p on PS4 and there's no difference at all.
Cash grab? They actually got their game out and have continued to add content through the year and a half since. A cash grab would have been to use old assets and tracks. I think Forza 6 is making up for any minor grievance anyone might have had.
How is it hot air? People tried to blame EA and Microsoft for Sony not having EA Access on the PS4. When it was Sony all along who said it didn't represent value.
On the topic of this, Sony likely paid a ton of money to get a marketing deal for Battlefront to help cover for the fact that they lack any real AAA tent pole exclusives this holiday. So it makes sense there wouldn't be a Microsoft Star Wars bundle.
I think not being a launch game and under that rush will help a lot. Props to them for getting Forza 5 out at launch, it's actually come a long way since the launch of the game. Very excited for Forza 6. Turn 10 are class developers.

Sunk 10+ hours into it already. I've never seen a remake do so many great things. The game looks better than most current gen games released. It has almost 2 hours of extra campaign that console gamers never got the chance to play.
The multiplayer has 19 maps, runs at 60fps (which makes a world of difference) and uses dedicated servers. Host advantage was a huge problem with Gears when it launched in 2006. They also added game modes like TDM which weren't in the orig...
Nice move by Microsoft. Lots of new Xbox One owners, maybe some who haven't played Tomb Raider Definitive Edition, get them into the franchise before Rise Of Tomb Raider launches.
6.5 kinda high for a QTE game?
Finally starting to see some legit scores from sites not bought and paid for. This is more in line with what I was expecting all along.
You beat me to this comment. Metal Gear Solid V is unfinished and got a 10/10, yet Gears Of War gets an in progress review?
Probably because GT7, God Of War 4 and most of that stuff isn't guaranteed to release next year. Already big time rumors that Last Guardian and Horizon will push to 2017. Not only is a lot of that stuff not confirmed to release in 2017, but NOT EVEN ANNOUNCED!
A trailer sent by the developer, for which Microsoft took the heat.
Love how quickly Microsoft listens and the turnaround for these features is really fast. As an Xbox One owner I couldn't be happier with the attention being paid to the actual consumers. This was something I voted on just last month on the forums, and now it's actually happening. That's how you build up your brand through trust and quick action.
