MSFT owns a chunk of Facebook. Facebook owns Oculus. MSFT needs an answer to Morpheus IF it's successful. Oculus already runs on Windows. Makes ALOT of sense. But I don't see this taking off till we can send 1080p to BOTH eyes. X ONE would need some kind of add on to more than double it's performance, unless Dx12 and cloud are real. I wonder if MSFT can use Kinetic to better track body movement in VR.
Kind of funny N4G and Dual Shockers trying to spin this as anti MS.
Seems like it would make a great Mario party game.
Can the WiiU handle those grapfix? :) :p
Never understood the fascination with Neverwinter. Dragonlance would make a FAR more memorable MMORPG with the best mass PvP ever.
Played it on PC. Nothing interesting. Also it's horribly CPU bound and both PS4 and Xbone have horribly gimped CPUs.
Not trying to start a flame war, but with DX12 and a SLIGHTLY faster CPU, this might be the one game that runs better on Xbone.
That Condemned screen shot made me realize how big of a jump in quality we got from day 1 to today last gen. Compare that to Halo 4 or TLOU!!!! Can only hope this gen turns out the same!!
Article's merits are being missed because it took a dig a TLOU and fan boys be mad!!!
But it's great to think of the games that really changed the industry getting a new gen make over.
My list....
Tie Fighter
Privateer (I guess this is Star Citizen?)
Baldurs Gate 1&2 with expansions.
Mechwarrior Mercinaries
Morrowind
Star Control 2 (but with a totally different map and extra plot points)
Anyone that is buying TLOU remastered should buy it used so the Developer doesn't get paid 2x. Only people playing for the 1st time should buy it new.
The way the are turning Madden into pay to play on top of your $60 initial purchase - no thanks. The last Madden is the worst I can remember. We need someone to come out with an alternative like Techno Bowl or The League.
The article is only unfunny if you are GFX addicted fanboy that cares more about 1080p vs 920p then gameplay, plot and good coop/PvP.
COME ON. You can't even see the individual bullets in the gun. What is this 1998?!$??!?? $?
“The true version of this game. It’s not a piece of crap like that vanilla version we put out six months ago.”
"That said, you’ll probably only be able to notice the graphical improvement if you really examine the little details you come across."
The power gap between the PS3 and PS3 is roughly 300 gflops vs 1,840 gflops - or 6th - and you can only see the difference "if you really examine the little details"... we have reached peak GFX. You need a 10x difference in power to get a noticeable improvement. Gap between PS4 and X bone is 1.3 vs 1.8..... More proof ...
No no no no. #1 is correct but the rest are crap. Riders of Rohan needs to be on here as does Battle for Middle Earth, Total War: Third Age and Angbad. Everything else is CRAP.
MCC will be the GOAT.
6v6 is the max in beta. If this doesn't have at LEAST a 100v100 area like Cryodill or Ettenmoors - I have 0 interest.
People will stop playing this when MCC comes out. Over 100 maps from the best multilayer FPS of all time. It MIGHT unseat DOTA2.
Stop listening to the people chasing graphics over gameplay. Look at your steam account and count the hours you have in on games and ask how important GFX really are. I've got 90% of my hours over the last few months on...
DOTA 2 which I'm playing at 1024x768 because of a bug I can't figure out.
CIV5 which is massively could bound on huge maps with 16+ opponents plus city states.
Borderlands 2 which is a cartoon.
As an owner of 3 PS3s, 2 360s and 1 Xbone, I say NO. I've wasted a lot of $$ chasing good graphics and my favorite games really aren't that GPU demanding. Forza 5 isn't worth the upgrade because Forza 4 is so good. DR3 is fun but not $500 fun. TF and Destiny are on 360 and look 80% as good. Game Play is the exact same.
MCC, SO and Halo 5 are worth it though.
I scored him in 2nd round last year. Probably won't happen again! :(
It is a cash grab. But why do you care? Everything in business is about cash. If you don't like it don't buy it. Now if you want to argue whether MCC is a better deal - fine. That's a different question..
Starcraft should be replaced with Warcraft. Must does not belong on here, it's not a game. Instead what about Final Fantasy or Ultima. Star Control 2 was also epic.
