That is too bad, he was killing it!
Not sure how I feel about this. It is my favorite game of all time, but what if I don't feel the same playing it again. This could change my life lol
Yeah, that 17 minute demo on IGN had my jaw on the floor. That is just crazy.
Everything looks good, but also kind of generic. I don't know, since it is truly free to play of course I am going to try it and the graphics look amazing but not a game I am really hyped for.
It isn't an indie haha. But yes, brilliant game, one of the best!
@TheGreatGamer: Published by means it is not Indie. Indie games are made and published independently. Ori is not only published by MS but was made with their help. If you watch the credits of Ori you will see it was made by hundreds of people.
Even their own site states: in 2011, Moon Studios started development on their second title in cooperation with Microsoft Games Studios.
Agreed. In my top 10 of all time, it is so amazing.
They definitely ripped off Avatar big time haha, but that is fine with me, because I loved the ideas in Avatar having to do with all things being connected.
I don't think it is as much data as you think it is. The geometry is stored on the servers as well as the console. The calculations "which are very expensive on the CPU" are being performed on the server but the actual geometry is on the console so really you are just sending back positions, which would be a straightforward vector3 array. Not a complex array of geometry, just the positions of the geometry.
My best guesses are:
Perfect Dark and a new Fable game will be the headliners for 2017.
There was a rumor a few months back the MS was looking to make an adventure game series based on Perfect Dark, somewhat along the lines of an Uncharted type of game. And I do think that makes a lot of sense. Not sure who will make it though.
There was also rumors that they tried to get Insomniac to make a new Conker game, so that could be another possibili...
It is pretty short. When I replayed it recently, I beat it in two days and I don't think I played more than 4 hours per day.
It was a glorious 6 hours though. Just replayed it along with Halo 2 a few months back and I forgot how awesome that story was. To me, Halo 4 was the best campaign of all the Halo games.
Halo 2's story wasn't very focused, but that campaign was fun too. Hopefully Blur will be doing all the cutscenes in the future.
I will never dismantle my FateBringer or Found Verdict. I am taking those to my grave, regardless of how dated and underpowered they become.
I mean, like who cares. Gamers are such drama queens. He said, she said.. lol.
Very "Clockwork Orange" vibe I get from this. Not sure how I feel about that.. That movie, ahhhh.
Yes, it has a single player campaign that can be played offline.
The campaign and multiplayer are very different. In the campaign your job is to save the city from thugs "not destroy it". In the multiplayer it is all about using the city and the physics to get an advantage on opponents.
The cloud compute is happening on servers, the game is running on the X1.
The single player campaign is about saving the city from thugs, not destroying the city.
It is part of the multiplayer experience so if you lose your connection you are going to be kicked or get an error just like every other multiplayer game ever made.
Life is Strange is so good so far. Finished episode 2 yesterday and it had me pretty stunned. The character development and investment is so deep, makes the situations feel real. In the case of one character almost too real, reading the percentages of scene outcomes almost killed me, like two of the scenes had high percentages of outcomes that I just can't even imagine going through.
