The all digital future some people want is going to end up biting them in the ass. Don't support it, you'll only end up screwing yourself.
But from Sony's and Nintendo's perspective they love having Phil in charge of Xbox! 🤣
RGH is 100% off, and soon will be the only way to play these games on 360.
I understand why online Achievements / Trophies exist, but I don't like them.
Sometimes you have to do something stupid online such kill an opponent while they are using a specific character skin such as in Gears of War 3. But I have no control over which skin other people select!
Nice thing they did, but not actually gaming related, not sure why this article was approved. Also strange informing us what game Rare worked on, as if we don't know their legacy.
So it begins, and its only going to get worse as time goes on. Reward the companies that respect their work force, avoid those that replace them.
The story was at its most interesting early in the series, but has eventually ended up spinning its wheels going nowhere. The games don't feel linked together anymore. This is to make it easier to constantly churn out endless sequels.
Well game design wise, the series has remained mostly the same since 2001.
Go to location, watch cut-scene telling you what to do, go to second location, kill then collect item, or collect item then kill after, or escape criminals / cops. Sometimes you have to return to original mission starting point. That's their formula, don't expect anything different with 6, other than more details and a lively world enabled by better hardware.
Modern day trash game design, grind, filler, padding, and of course how could we forget the micro-trash-action store?
BARF!
Giving that buffoon money makes me not want to support your game. I consider it negative marketing.
Yes I played it long ago. Its kind of like Mass Effect, years before Mass Effect. You have to make choices which permanently affects the story.
Near the end of the game you have a bunch of super power abilities, I remember a shockwave stomp attack which wrecked enemies.
It was rushed out unpolished, so it had a lot of framerate issues, but I did end up having fun with it. Been over 15 years since I played it, so my memory is fuzzy, but I do remember I w...
I love Rising Revengeance, but I would have loved to see MGS: Rising, where we got to see Raiden's body destroyed at Area 51, and play some portions of MGS 4 from Raiden's perspective.
Good pick.
I have no interest in this game or genre, but the market will decide how long this game lasts and Sony's direction for the future.
So in that case I personally don't want it to guide Sony first party games towards live service, filler, grindy design, peddling pathetic digital junk within the micro-trash-action store.
I pre-ordered Astro Bot, and I'd do the same if the executives ever pull their heads out their rears and green light Ape Escape ...
Advent Rising was planned to be a trilogy, and we never got parts 2 and 3.
Also wish THPS 10 was never canceled back in 2008. They were releasing the games at too fast a pace and just needed to slow it down instead of abandon the series entirely to make endless Guitar Hero games.
Stupid Activision executives.
I'm sure that there will be more to come in the future.
Most indie 'spiritual successor games' miss the mark, but hopefully this one will land. Good luck.
Most gaming genres are creatively lacking at this point. Publishers want to make 'safe games' that are based on previously successful games with little risk.
Today the executives and marketers have too much control over which games are made. 'Corporate games' are an immediate turn off for me, they are a waste of money, but more importantly, my time.
Just take a break from the game. Stop forcing yourself to play something if you're getting burned out.
Such a simple solution.
If they had high profile games to advertise, maybe they would. But they haven't had that in a long time, so why bother?
Yeah, as a fan of MGS and Splinter Cell, I'd enjoy another game like them. Currently in development we're getting remakes with both series storyline starting points.
To me it feels like they've run out of new ideas so they have to go back and do remakes instead of making a new adventure.
