I agree. Hopefully some kind of Director's Cut of Alien: Isolation will be released. Like the Director's Cut of Deus Ex Human Evolution, it would be worth a second purchase.
As conditions held up to the end of 2014, the PS2 certainly maintains it's own spot in VideoGame History.
But as of today, the Playstation 4 is surely on its way to surpass the Playstation 2 in every significant category.
I don't mean to disparage Phil Spencer's conviction or the Xbox Department's shifting commitment to gaming, but let's be honest here; if it wasn't for Sony or its behemoth known as the Playstation 4, Xbox One would have never changed for the better.
Cutie Pie!
You should be a proof-reader. I didn't notice that until I saw your comment.
That was a big oversight though, because I thought Linear games were the bane of Every Single Gamer in the whole World Wide Web...*rolls eyes*
On Topic: Snake is going to be almost entirely silent in this game? What about Kiefer??? Kiefer Sutherland is one of my favorite things about this game. (I'm a big 24 fan).
If anyone seems to be in denial, it's you. Now I'm not saying The Order is the Greatest damn game to ever be released, but you can't honestly say that none of what the article claims isn't reasonable?
I mean anyone with any logic, common sense and even a little business sense already knows that clicks and website traffic is the primary revenue driver for most gaming websites. And nothing (other than sex) drives web traffic and garners website clicks better tha...
I loved the author's aligory about how open-world games and more linear, cinematic games can and should be able to share shelf space.
"You can have all-you-can-eat and gourmet restaurants on the same block"
I couldn't have said it better myself. Why does every piece of software have to be some open-world, sandbox game that focuses primarily on side quests and collectibles and less on convincing, engaging story-telling?
@NYRg...
Very true, fallacious. And as anyone who has even a moderate amount of first-hand knowledge of the Internet knows, the detractors (i.e. fanboys) on the other side of the fence usually make up the greatest amount (or at least a significant amount) of that minority; The ones that are so inherently critical of a video game are typically not even within the buying public or consumer base for said video game.
*Rolls Eyes*
Here we are again with the influx of Xbox Fanboys crowding an Order 1886 article, talking about Ryse and talking about how N4G is crowded with "sony fanboys" yet here they all are taking up all the space. It's a little funny, but it's mostly pathetic.
Xbox Fanboys accusing others of hypocrisy and bias towards hardware first, then software is the pothead calling the kettle a crackhead. Prime Example: The gross intolerance from Xb...
@JoeReno
LOL you beat me to it. Man-Eee-Faces has made like 5 posts in the last 15 minutes on The Order articles and he/she clearly doesn't seem like they even own a Playstation 4, let alone intend on giving The Order a fair chance.
Are Skippable Cutscenes the new "must-have" feature for video games this gen or what???
Who the hell wants to skip cutscenes and miss out on the story of a game anyway? I can understand that argument for subsequent playthroughs, but seriously???
Complaining about "unskippable cutscenes" should be the new definition of fanboys grasping at straws.
Judging from your comment history, you are clearly settled within the Xbox Fanboy camp and you love throwing stones over the fence in an almost incessant fashion. So don't try to paint yourself as some rational, objective person that lost a bubble for nothing.
DarkOcelet, this place is just crazy. My last comment here on this forum was a sarcastic comment directed AGAINST all the radical hating on The Order, and guess what? That comment gets flagged for "Trolling".
Sure, and the Xbox sycophants love to say N4G is crowded with Sony Fanboys. Seems to be quite the opposite to me.
Positive Review???
BLASPHEMY!!!
All the haters are correct, everyone else is WRONG!
No middle ground allowed!!!
Those are the rules here at N4G.
*In Eric Cartman's voice* I don't wanna wait...for our lives to be over!
Watch out James, going against the grain by making comments like that could get you in trouble around here.
@Farmassy
At least from what I've seen so far (and I don't just get my news from N4G), saying the "vast majority" of reviews are mediocre is a little bit of an overstatement. Also, do you consider 7's or 7.5's to be "mediocre" reviews? It seems most people here on N4G do.
I don't know if you're like this, but I learned a long time ago not to surrender my judgement to the video game media. I first learned that lesson...
Well you are keeping both of your eyes open, right? I mean if you did, you would know that the review scores for this game are swinging back and forth, up and down.
At the beginning of your comment you come out objectively on the topic of The Order's length: "I think that IF The Order is only 5 hours long,..."
Then by the end of your comment, you take a huge 180 degree turn and then start to comment on The Order as if it's campaign is IN FACT very short: "Journey was a fantastic and short game, and they didn't charge $60 for it. The Order should be priced more appropriately,..."
So what th...
"It only took 7 years to get it!"
Are you talking about Microsoft finally joining the 21st century and adopting Blu-Ray for their console??? LOL, you very well could be.
