Half of those aquired studios are developing kinect titles...besides what's the point of aquring all these studios if your not going to make anything that isn't called forza, halo, or gears?
Hear, hear good sir! It's getting to the point where I'm willing to sell my 360, just so I can get a ps3. At first, yeah the ps3 was light with exclusives. Microsoft had some big guns from Gears to Bioshock, and some even interesting titles like Alan Wake.
But honestly it's getting a little ridicoulous now. If no one is interested in kinect, or halo 4 then microsoft has 0 worth wild exclusives. Besides the better community (sorry I prefer the xbox live community ove...
Still, it's not even the next game in series. Ken Levine said that the name Bioshock is there because it's recongnizeable name, instead of having the title Infinite.
For all purposes it's a new ip if you ask me.
Why is Bioshock Infinte listed as a sequel? It doesn't take place before or after Bioshock (levine said it MIGHT be in the same universe, or it might not) so I'm not sure why it's considered a sequel.
I'm sorry but people cry "Wah so many zombie games I'm sick and tired of them, wah!"
But really we get way more generic dude bro military shooters than we get zombie games.
How many were released this year alone?
Dead Island, and what else?
Sure there's L4D, Dead Island, Black Ops Zombie dlc, Resident Evil 5, Dead Nation (psn game), plants vs zombies (xbla), and maybe some others...
So I ...
Well it gives you hints about an apoclayptic situation, and it also gives hints on cordyceps (that brain eating fungi that's been shown in insects).
That's something .
Most definitely agree. Microsoft has some really neat ip's but they always put there eggs into one basket with Halo, and Gears.
To me Sony is a company that's for the gamers. While Microsoft is for people who play games occasionally like MW3, or some other random shooter.
Sure the defense could be that the gen is ending! Microsoft should focus on making next gen ips. Sure, but that hasn't stopped Sony from producing new ips.
An I hate to...
Correct me if I'm wrong but from the sounds of it you think AAA is related with how long it's in development?
That's usually not the case but whatever.
Nah, David Cages next project was something more religious (hell inspired from what I understand)...I feel it's a toss up between Kojima, Jaffe Project Heartland, and Sony Santa Monica new open world game, and of course that ps move game Until Dawn...all of those are good bets if you ask me
But they said in the teaser it was a new bioware franchise?
Or..not? I love speculation and all but it's just a week away from being revealed.
Some big exclusives coming to microsoft...Halo 4 and Onechanbara, oh man.
Sony needs to watch it's back! ;)
Why? Not one zombie game has been truly amazing. If they nail the narrative and the horror then I could care less what genre it is.
@Hazmat13
I agree I enjoy blowing off zombies heads to. But then how does that define as gamers? That the only enjoyment we get out of playing games is killing things? I'm sure most of us our mature by now that we'd like to see evolving narratives with emotion.
I want an emotional tie with the main charcter (like John Marston in RDR), I want the setting to be a charcter in itself (like Rapture in Bioshock), I want the zombies to seem relentless with v...
Sorry but crap like this pisses me off.
Sure it very well may be a zombie game. But who cares? Not one single zombie game on the market has the sense of survival and desperation. Every zombie game from Left 4 Dead, to Dead Island all seem corny and arcade-ish in a way. So if it's a zombie game that excels in narration, and horror then F-YEAH!
But honestly what if it isn't a zombie game? There was nothing in that video that gave us any signs of zombies. Yet...
Pretty sure we have Heavy Rain in 2010 which was less than a year ago :/
An emotional, heart wrenching story with a mix of horror with an amazing narrative that encaptures the fear of surviving for another day using ps3 tech=Believe!
I'm praying (and from the teaser it gives me a slight hope) that the game will be more like The Road where there's a dramatic and emotional side to surviving, instead of your generic zombie flick.
We have generic zombie action games, I want more emotional zombie games.
Yeah, I mean I personally don't see this gen ending till 2013-early 2014..but I know others are predicting (or should I mean wishing) that it ends in 2012.
I guess I'm maybe more surprised by how many new ips are still being produced. I know Gurilla Games, Quantic Dreams, Bungie, Edios Montreal, Io Interactive, Sony Santa Monica, Square Eniq, Bioware and a bunch of other studios are all working on unannounced new ips.
By the tail end you usually expect to s...
@Foliage
Really then? I'm not arguing about the money and budget bit. Definitely agree there...but time?
Last I checked Assassins Creed Revelations is AAA game and it was made in 1 year. Final Fantasy XIII-2 was made in a year as well. There are plenty of games made with a year..sure there are big lengthy projects like L.A Noire, MGS, and so on and so forth, but that isn't necessary for every game.
