It's really the publisher who deserves the blame. Since they fund the projects, they determine which platforms the game is released on and which platforms get the most attention. People always give Crytek shit about how Crysis 2 being a console port, but that was EA's decision for them to focus on the console version and not the PC.
Assets for multiplat games are always developed with the lowest common denominator in mind, then handed off to each respective team to be programmed into something the platform can run using dev kits. That's why, for many PC versions of major releases, there are no noticeable differences besides an increase in resolution. Some developers tack on DX11 features onto their titles (Max Payne 3, Far Cry 3), but because they're not engine-native, they are inefficient and require tons of raw...
At least then there would actually BE a Darksiders III.
You're welcome. ;)
It was number 3, behind Rayman and Pikmin.
I just finished Alan Wake and American Nightmare over the past couple of days. I would LOVE for Remedy to release another one.
Unique, creative titles like Tearaway are exactly what the Vita needs more of, not gimped console ports.
$800 MINIMUM, or I'm staying with PC, along with every legit developer who is sick of waiting for hardware worthy of their new engines.
Turok could've been something really great with a few more months of polish.
Yep. Back then you played Call of Duty for the atmosphere and experience, not to waste your life pursuing petty and cheap rewards for simply going through the motions.
I support the NRA even though I disagree with Mr. Lapierre's recent statements. I just wanted to bring attention to the idiocy of comparing NRA-branded games to anything remotely violent.
When the NRA puts its logo on a game where you actually shoot other people, THEN you can call them hypocrites.
Stupid people like this author should be banned from the internet.
It's amazing how many people don't actually read the accompanying article before commenting, is it not?
Good God, you SonyTards are so easy to troll it's not even funny.
Here's an idea: why don't you broke-ass losers get off N4G and get yourselves a REAL job and buy a PC so that you can see what REAL graphics look like?
Uncharted? Fun game, great voice acting, but to act like it sets some sort of graphical benchmark is laughable.
God of War III? Fun. Linear. Hardly taxing on any hardware.
LBP? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO...

ALL look better and feature better framerates on the Xbox 360 platform.
Oh my God those are ugly.
THANK GOD!
That was my only major gripe with the console. There's no reason it should take so long to move from app to app through the Wii U menu when there is a whole gigabyte of memory devoted SOLELY to the OS.
Here's hoping we get a fix soon.
I swear, the Vita has had more firmware releases than game releases this year.
"Next gen" games will continue to run at 1280x720 resolution @ 30 frames-per-second. Bet on it.
Her necklace is ####-ugly too.
