not convinced with VR personally. then again I tend to get headaches and motion sickness really easily when playing. dunno why.
Well the article doesn't say it's a masterpiece. Just that it's good and it's fun and an enjoyable experience. It's an opinion piece after all..
I would love for this to happen.
Sill would rather the amiibo bundle. I think WW had a similar price tag...if I remember correctly. I hope it supports the wiimote controls, because honestly while it may not have been superior, they were so much fun..
Mario Party destroys friendships.
I have it too! I bought the official guide just for that soundtrack! As small as it may have been, still loved it!
I'm really doubting this. It was advertised as being apart of the amiibo bundle; I remember when they announced it for the direct. I doubt Nintendo would change that. I had it pre-ordered at GameSpot but switched to Amazon because they're better, and now I get 20% off my purchase ($47 instead)
I own 30 amiibo (plural is amiibo) and the reason they're not really being implemented the way originally envisioned, as Kimishima put it in his interview with TIME, is because people are more "collecting" them rather than buying them and using them in games. I can understand that and do it myself.
Honestly imagine in Zelda U that you can completely customize your Link and save it all on a special Link amiibo in a special Legend of Zelda line? That, IMO, is what...
Gotta disagree with quite a few of these. I did an article recently about gameplay and story meshing together as the medium evolves; I think ME had both a great story and great gameplay, although the Mako sucked. 999 has a great narrative but the puzzles are really what I love about the game...same as Virtue's Last Reward. Ni No Kuni is just a lot of fun. I can't believe The Last of Us isn't on this list, considering it's amazing story yet mediocre gameplay.
I actually have an interview on tuesday with an indie dev (my first interview with a dev so makes me a little nervous) and I'm really excited. They are so incredibly creative, while I'm finding a lot of AAA titles this generation are just lacking (just IMO, although there are a lot of games I do enjoy).
Very intriguing! I'd love to see it personally. Casting would be very interesting!
I didn't write this, but very interesting article. Indie developers really are shining this generation and there are so many hidden gems out there. Can't wait until the next installment in the series!
Battlefront isn't even a proper FPS. I always play in 3rd person, as I feel it's designed that way (the originals had both options too). On top of that, it's not even a great game...it's so incomplete. MW and MW2 are the best casual FPS games IMHO.
A really inspirational story. Covered this for another outlet and It's really amazing. You can even watch part of his playthrough on youtube!
Pretty good list. Ellie from TLOU is amazing, Melissa Hutchinson in TWD is just breathtaking; I met Dave Fennoy at E3 last year. He's a great guy and his performance as Lee is astounding. Also, I think Mark Hamill as the Joker actually spans from his days on the Batman Animated Series to Arkham Knight; he's top notch.
I honestly don't know who I would put at number one, but there are some great VAs from Mass Effect and Kevin Conroy as Bruce Wayne/Batman is super...
This has nothing to do with rewards or what console the game is on. This has to do with what makes a game a good game. Just because mainstream gaming media lauded it as a masterpiece doesn't necessarily make it so. GameSpot gave it an 8/10. Hardly GOTY material according to their score.
This article is both a commentary on TLOU and a discussion on the evolution of gaming and whether it will value cinematics and story over quality gameplay or find a way to merge the tw...
The atmosphere was great and some of those encounters were cool...actually IMO the best part was when Ellie was left on her own while caring for Joel. But it was just the repetitive nature of all of your encounters that kind of killed the game from a gameplay aspect for me.
It's just a description. It is an opinion. I believe it to be my truth/fact, but that doesn't mean it's not an opinion...if that makes sense. I can see arguments for both sides.
It all depends on what you look for in a game. I personally think that it is very repetitive re: gameplay, but the story is amazing. I admit as much. It's just purely as a game, I don't think it is great as we traditionally think of games. Really, a lot depends on how we define the medium as it continues to evolve.
great list. really excited for what's coming this year!
