@Hicken,
Speak Brotha!! You are spot on, m'man.
Irish,
You took the words right out of my mouth. And the worst part about it is the series doesn't even have a difficulty setting. The lack of a challenge is the biggest turn off about the AC games for me.

My thoughts exactly. From a quality gameplay perspective, Madden is having a hard enough time saving itself, let alone the industry as a whole. If anything, it has become more of a disservice to the industry with its stagnation and monopolistic practices.

Would like to see Metal Gear Solid Zero - a current or next gen combined remake of MG1 and MG2.
@TooTall,
Tough, but rewarding. Need more like it.
Outland has to be one of the most underrated DL titles in recent memory. If you're a PS+ member and have been on the hunt for something unique, you owe it to yourself to at least try this game.
Vic, I agree with you about the flamebait silliness in general regardless of what platform, but this one was more of a satirical take.
With the onslaught of negative Sony articles popping up lately, I would bet my bottom dollar that those who approved this article had absolutely no clue as to what the article was ACTUALLY about. Nice read by the way - esp #10.
^^^...in a nutshell.
A last gen game I'd like to see that was ripe with potential, but may have been a little too ambitious for its time (on a technical level) is The Path of Neo. That game done right with a little more polish, length, and consistency could...no... SHOULD have been something special. Oh, the possibilities. Another personal fav of mine is Everything or Nothing.
Same here, and agreed. This "too long" mentality is one that developed this gen. Sounds like more of an excuse, and precursor, that AC3 is possibly going to be the shortest of the series.
^^This times a thousand. With console gaming becoming seemingly more casual by the game, chances grew even slimmer in hopes of seeing "thinking man's" games like rts's and milsims. PC gaming has given me this fix in spades. Similar to the article, I started PC gaming late last year and it's been hard to look back, save for a few console gems like Red Dead and maybe the upcoming Last of Us.
Items listed from the article…
-More Faith
-More Story
-New Art
-Improved Controls/Physics
-Multiplayer
-DICE
Personally, I would replace “multiplayer” with “lengthier game play”. There's nothing that frustrates me more than publishers taking single player experiences and diluting them with mp. I just downright hate the notion this gen that mp should be shoe horned in every single player experience.

"the snes had batman returns from konami. Sega did the batman returns for the sega cd which was much better than the genesis version."
You beat me to it. IMO, SNES BR was one of the best Batman games ever made for its time. It was like Final Fight/Streets of Rage in a Batman setting. Always made me wonder why "journalists" and their eventual followers would say there were never any quality Batman games up until AA's release (which I'...
Very well said. Goldeneye was revolutionary for its time and couldn't be overrated. That's like saying the NES was overrated as a console.
Easy choice pick.
Good. The longer the better. Ensures quality.
Man, what I wouldn't give to see a proper G1 Transformers game.
