The day when there are no single player experiences in gaming, when gaming is filled with these barebones online multiplayer microtransaction filled cashgrab 'games' (read: fads), will be the day when I will stop gaming on newer systems and instead continue on older systems with true single player offline experiences. Fortunately, despite that ludicrous decision to award the (at the time) barebones Overwatch with the GOTY at the TGA's last year, this year has been jam packed with ...
Way too far. It would be 'ok' if the game was free to play, but not when the asking price is £40/$60 and the developer/publisher asks for money on top for locked stuff in game.
*A fucking great movie
BlueHole used Epic's Unreal Engine for PUBG, it's like biting the hand that feeds you :D
By that logic, H1Z1 developers should sue PUBG.
I stopped reading at 'Pachter'. He makes more wild predictions than Dave Meltzer.
What would be more hilarious is if Bing automatically puts pictures on the store mainly for relatively unknown games like this one which it finds from the image search engine, and automatically put the Wii image on :D
'Sorry Microsoft, you’ll never be Nintendo.'
Septic where are you and your closet Nintendo backup fanboying ways?
Star Wars Battlefront EA, 2015 - more or less online only, slammed by every gamer and their dog/cat.
Overwatch, 2016 - online only, pumped full of microtransactions creating a new standard in the gaming industry of how many a publisher can get away with, no campaign (just a bunch of lore, plus the good p0rn ;) ), at the time it had sweet FA for content, GOTY at the TGAs.
PUBG, 2017 - online only (more or less one game mode) H1Z1 and ARMA rip off, best selling game on Steam a...
If everyone behaved like the reviewer for NBA 2K18 did maybe Shadow of War wouldn’t have happened, and maybe Overwatch wouldn’t have set a new standard for how much a game can get away with.
''However, FIFA 18 doesn’t tackle the finer attributes of the sport with quite the same finesse and there’s a strong bias towards attacking play over defending. Moments of spectacular sporting prowess, the kind that happen once a season in real life, are almost 10 a penny, and final scores are unrealistically high due the sheer number of attacking options.''
The first thing that I thought of when I read that paragraph was 'FIFA 15', if that paragraph...
Booty O's! They make sure, you ain't booty!
If only Pachter was a gambler, he would lose every time.
No surprise there
Has team Hakoom (yeah it's a team, there's no way one guy is earning all those trophies by himself in such a close time-span) earned (or hacked) the trophy yet?
He'll probably blame PUBG like Randy Pitchford blamed Overwatch for killing Battleborn.
Super Metroid is easily in the top 10 for me, what a masterpiece that game was.

A 'pretty Far Cry game'? Ubisoft's developers can only dream of making an open world as awesome as Horizon.
I remember using the select button on the PS1 fifa games to change formations during matches instantly.
