Lucas did unspeakable things
CRank: 13Score: 169360

Yeah, the American games media ran 10 times the amount of critical articles on the unfairness of a Spider-Man DLC than they have on MS pumping ~$80b into acquisitions to remove truckloads of IP from other systems. In fact, they've been mostly positive about it. lol

Do they feel like MS is the home team? It's pretty bizarre.

Just judged on its own merits (a cross between Burnout and Split/Second with some good destruction and fun drifting), Unbounded is extremely underrated.

If it was just called "Unbounded", I think people would look back on it much more fondly but it annoyed Ridge Racer fans (which I understand) so they trashed it, and it's a mostly forgotten game now. It's a shame - the game deserves more fans.

I picked up the PS4 version cheap on PSN 4/5 years ago initially just for Mercenaries. Only judging it on that, the gameplay was pretty tight and I was having a good time, so I decided to play the campaign ...

Not going to lie, I actually had a lot of fun playing the campaign split-screen with my sister. We kinda loved the insane goofiness of some of it (and had friendly damage enabled too). haha.

We laughed a lot which probably wasn't the desired res...

Andrii seemed like a great man. It's worth reading through the responses.

It's such a disgusting situation.
- Mass graves are being uncovered with civilians and children. The Russian war crimes seem quite extensive.
- Ukrainians are making up ground but with loads of Russian soldiers on the way, it will still be tough for them.
- Genuine threat of tactical nukes being used on Ukraine.
- Loads of disorganized Russian conscripts wil...

"With political correctness having gone mad on the Arabian Peninsula, it's nice to play a traditional, well-made segregation tycoon game with no micro-transactions, or a hidden agenda. In fact, it has a hilarious Khashoggi Easter egg which I will not spoil.

It really makes you feel like Mohammed bin Salman - like a Crown Prince. This is gender segregation, done right. 9/10." - IGN Saudi Arabia

BC2 was great, but Red Faction: Guerrilla had even better destruction. Can't believe all that tech was basically binned in their future games - Saints Row reboot :(

Maybe they edited the article, but Metro Exodus is on there.

Love those games. Extremely underrated.

They're very dedicated though. I'm pretty sure alternative accounts were used to spam some dislikes and upvotes on this comment thread (it happened a lot with TLOU2-related articles).

I used to always leave comments documenting this behaviour, and reported loads of new accounts set up on the same day that were used just to troll. Kind of got fed up of doing it, but the people doing it largely did as well, I think.

I saw my comment recently and I&#...

From reading your comment, it seems like your mom didn't love you enough, tbh.

Obviously, it's an extremely cheap knock-off, but I think the combat is inspired by Days Gone. When the zombies get close, you roll or jog away and make some distance, turn around and shoot them (particularly going for headshots), rinse and repeat. And the zombies are always pretty close behind trying to swarm you.

True. Stalker 2, Crossfire X (lol), The Medium, Sable, Yakuza: Like a Dragon (timed exclusive next-gen version) are some recent examples off the top of my head. Both MS and Sony do this, and MS relied on this tactic WAY more heavily than Sony and Nintendo in past gens because they didn't have many first party studios.

This narrative that MS doesn't pay for exclusive content from third parties is just fanboys setting up a false equivalence to justify MS buying up hug...

IW made Infinite Warfare and Ghosts (one of the worst COD games ever) as well, and MW3 was way less fun than MW2. Modern Warfare 2019 was a comeback for them (it still had big issues like barely any maps, camping, etc), and they really struggled for a decade after Vince Zampella left.

Treyarch carried the franchise for most of the 2010s, even though their games also dipped in quality. And they were forced to release their last game a year early with not much dev time becaus...

And no 60fps update.

At launch, the game library icon was on the left end instead of the right end. This feature would be so much better if it was still like that. It's annoying that you have to keep scrolling to the right to see all of your installed and digital games, over and over again.

On PS4, you could just tap R1 and it would go all the way to the right but that's missing on PS5. At least tapping O brings you all the way to the left like L1 did, I suppose.

There are different types of NFS fans. Hot Pursuit 2010 was fantastic.

I want Criterion to do what they do best - fast, aggressive, arcade racing. The last 3 NFS games were so dull and poorly made (some people insist that NFS Heat is great).

At least Most Wanted 2012 was a fun, competently made racing game. I picked up the controller and had fun. That's all I'm asking for at this stage. Even the generic NFS Rivals was more fun than the last 3 ga...

Are the high and low dome stick caps actually domed, or is that just a reference to their height and they're otherwise the same as the standard sticks?

Jesus. Was not expecting a 63 on Metacritic.

What was the last IP this big that got a score like that?
