The word "boring" used 8 times in that article. Something tells me this guy has a bit of a chip on his shoulder.
The last game was an absolute abortion - but I DID appreciate it trying something new with the inventory management, the analog combat, and use of physics. It's just that the execution was shocking.
Nathan Drake doesn't look particularly unique or interesting anyway. He's just your typical average looking guy. He looks like plenty of people.
And to think, Kojima announced they intentionally lowered the quality of the FOX Engine in attempt to throw people off and give it more of an 'indie' look.
Genius.
Can't believe the ignorance in this thread. Any sequel to TLOU would undermine the originals brilliance, regardless of what story it followed (if any).
Even if it was a whole new story with new characters, it would constantly be compared to the original. There was an additional ending scene on TLOU that was cut at the last minute because they wanted the impact of that final scene to remain in peoples minds to form their own conclusions and actually THINK about what they j...
The master showing people how it's done. What's new?
Without a doubt one of the most creative in recent memory. I've been trying to think of other games that got unique reveals and the only other one that comes to mind is Super Mario Brothers 3 which got it's first showing on that crappy movie 'The Wizard'.
Misleading title :P
What are you talking about? Silent Hill 2 (containing Pyramid Head) WAS psychological horror, and probably the best example of it. Whereas F.E.A.R, as good as it was, relied primarily on jump scares to startle - not scare - the players.
Psychological horror is far more effective, for me anyway. A creature that perhaps possesses human like qualities but with an inhuman and disturbing twist is far more unsettling than something jumping at the screen accompanied by a loud orches...
I sincerely doubt the game will be 100% first person. Why would they go to the trouble of hiring/modelling/mocapping Norman Reedus if you weren't going to see him?
Good game, but really - what a knobhead.
Stop holding your game hostage to Twitter and make the Goddamn game.
My biggest fear is that they'll fall into the trap that previous games in the series has: copy the plot to Silent Hill 2. That's not to say Silent Hill 2 is bad. Quite the contrary, it's probably in my top 3 most favourite games. But it was an individual story. The core of Silent Hill revolves around the cult, it's effects on the town, and it's people. Not facing your inner demons, and especially not Pyramid Head. Silent Hill 2 was a departure from the main storyline, and ...
I want to know more about Silent Hill(s) to be honest.
HOLY !$!"@# THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO GAME NEWS I'VE HEARD IN A LONG TIME!
"Remember when this game series was supposed to be a super dark, heavily Japanese, super spy tale of intrigue?"
Someone has never played Metal Gear before. It's ALWAYS been tongue-in-cheek, quirky, off the wall and completely out there.
Lighten up, jeez.
For Christ sake, is it REALLY that hard to understand peoples hate?
The first, in a hopefully long lasting reboot of a beloved franchise gets released on multiple platforms. It (eventually) does really well. A sequel is announced and after a couple of months allowing people to preorder on all formats, they suddenly announce it'll be exclusive to the console it sold the fewest copies on.
Does that clear it up for you? It's nothing to do with 'fanb...
Technically, it was 'birthed' on the Sega Saturn. But yeah...
Square are known for poor decisions - but yes, I fail to see the logic in this as well. You have a game, released on 3 platforms (Xbox 360, PS3, and PC) that sells a LOT, but still fails to meet the expected sales quota. So with that, you release the game again on current platforms (PS4 and Xbox One) and the results come in and you discover the PS4 outsold the Xbox version 7:3. You finally make your sales quota and get the greenlight for a sequel. You then decide to release said sequel on onl...
Tomb Raider on last gen didn't reach their sales expectations. They release it on next (current) gen consoles and the PS4 version outsells the Xbox One version 7 to 3. So they decide to release the sequel on just ONE platform (excuse the pun) thats being outsold by it's competitor 3 to 1. GREAT PLAN!
It's Square-Enix though. If you truly believe this will stay on one platform, you're very naive.
Hope it's good, but good LORD is that a horr...
She isn't the first, and certainly won't be the last.
