This is actually kind of a bummer. As an old school gamer I remember playing many games on the original NES that were put out under the Konami/ultra brand. Original metal gear, contra, castlevania and one of my personal favorites skate or die. I hate seeing these veteran video game companies go down one by one. Up up down down left right left right B A select start!
Yeah I hate it. Especially now that it seems like reviews are not getting released until the day the game gets released. So do I risk missing out on a good preorder bonus to see if the game is worth playing or do I gamble and preorder and maybe get a crap game. Things like goro being free for preorder should just come with the game.
I agree with this pros and con's list. Love the game but if I may add a few cons-
-No stage fatalities! That's a MK staple.
-all of the characters from MK9 should be on the roster plus the new ones.
-every character should get a chapter in story mode
-the ps4 error code is maddening and still not fixed
-brutalities shouldn't require so much nonsense to pull off.
-all the menu options and factions and point systems including how many ...
I think the NX coming out holiday 2016 is definitely possible if maybe not possible. Remember the original Xbox only had a 4 year life cycle and the standard up until last gen was a 5 year life cycle. Don't get me wrong I love the Wii u and the different variety of games it offers me from what I get with my ps4 but its no secret that from a business standpoint it has overall been a failure and it not going to turn around after almost 3 years on the market. Its a sad truth and Nintendo is ...
I'd like them to redo skyward sword in HD for Wii u. It looked awful on my HDTV on Wii and could really do well to have be upgraded. Plus since its designed around motion control it couldn't be done on 3ds. I just want them all released in some form cause I'm trying to play them all in timeline order so I'm OK with twilight princess on 3ds.
Mortal Combat X was the first full retail game I ever bought digitally and I've been getting this error message for 2 days and can't play the game. I'll never buy another digital game again.
The thing about games like uncharted is that if you want to make a movie out of it you really don't need to change anything. Its already well scripted and cinematic. Just add some good actor and adapt only what is necessary to make it a full length movie. It should be really easy.
You guys are killing me! I had totally made peace with jumping into the witcher 3 without having played the first 2 and maybe just watching some YouTube videos. Now reading your comments you all have tapped into my gaming OCD and I feel like I'm going to really be missing out if I don't start from the beginning.
Wonder why they would take those out. Its always been one if my favorite parts of mortal kombat. They should at least have a pit.
I'm still trying to find out if this game has stage fatalities or not?
So are there no stage fatalities in this one?
Out of all the fighters that didn't make the roster I'm really surprised there's no Baraka. And since they are doing the horror movie icons I wish they would have brought back freddy Kruger so he could go against Jason and also pinhead and Ash from evil dead. They all fit the mortal kombat world. Game looks great though.
A couple things to that. First off last gen remasters made a little more sense cause ps2 games weren't in high def which makes a world of difference when playing on a high def tv and really just how the game looks in general not to mention the addition of trophys.for two the remasters weren't coming at the rate last gen that they are now only a year and a half into the life cycle. Third almost all remasters last gen were at least 2 games in a series on one disc for still just over hal...
Im gonna go ahead and dive head first into getting a ton of disagrees but this article is spot on. I got a ps4 on launch day hoping for the next huge jump into what video games could do and how they could look. So far a year and a half into its life cycle all I've gotten is the slightest upgrade in textures. The fact the metal gear solid 5 is being released on last gen systems as well as current gen says something to me. Remember when triple a games could never be made on last gen systems...
I got lots of disagrees when I said there's no way legend of Zelda would make its 2015 date too. As an old school die hard Nintendo fan I don't say these things to be a d!ck, I'm just realistic about things.
I agree they need games to fill the next 2 years but seeing that Nintendo has announced NX they are basically admitting defeat with the Wii u so I would bet money that NX will be released by holiday 2017. That still gives the Wii u a 5 year life cycle which for 20 years was the standard cycle until ps3 360 era. Nowadays it takes at the minimum 2 years to make a triple a game but usually longer to give it a real good polish. Would it really make since to release a game on a dying console at th...
Interesting. I'm actually surprised they aren't waiting to have them release something on NX since retro is such a strong studio and if it were a new metroid it would make a perfect launch title since it seems every new console just has to launch with a first person shooter.
Now how about kingdom hearts 1 and 2.
I have to disagree a little bit. Don't get me wrong re4 was a great game but I think the fixed camera angles really add to the suspense and feeling of unknown. It adds a lot of atmosphere and dread when you don't know what's going to be in the next camera shot. Nothing like turning the corner and unknowingly being greeted by a monster running at you. Its not something that would work for all games but definitely for the resident evil franchise.
I really do wish zelda would have voice acting for NPC characters and just let you choose unspoken dialog for link. That's how skyrim does it and its obvious this new Zelda is taking cues from that game. I'm currently replaying on the Zelda games and I'm on wind waker and by that point in the series and this day in age its time for speaking parts in all dialog heavy games and not just odd annoying grunts and sounds.
