I've always prefered the WWII era CoDs to the new ones. they just feel a lot more earnest and have a rawness to them that the modern ones lack.
No i play anything and everything. Most of my favourite games of the year were on the PS3 and indie titles. I think the work David Cage is doing with quantic dream is phenominal, Hotline miami rates as one of the best and most disturbing gmaes i've ever played.
I'm currently working my way through arkham origins. Fair enough its the wiiU verison, but i got it because Armored ed had some fun features and i really like off screen play.
I just think ra...
You make a good point. LBP did some amazing things with content creation on consoles. The only problem is that the actual platforming side of things is pretty ropey.
Don't get me wrong its an amazing game but there's a tightness to mario that other platfromers lack.
Say what you want about their over reliance on stock characters and tropes, but they do bring the best out of the devlopers they work with. Rare are proof of that.
There isnt. the art forms over reliance on borrowing cinematic tropes over actual core gameplay experiences is killing it.
There's only so much you can do with a shooter the same way there's only so much you can do in a platformer.
but the fact of the matter is that nintendo have time and again dragged the industry in differnt directions. Modern gaming has so much to thank nintendo for.
the first porper open world rpg was zelda, the f...
This article is complete BS. Each main mario game is totally different to the last. World-64-Sunshine-Galaxy.
All superb games, all completely different. These are the same morons who roll up and buy cod every year or completely ignore that there's zero innovation in most other games uncharted three games, exactly the same mechanically, gears the same, halo the same.
Yeah but if the ps4 and xbone are going to be using 5-6gb purely for games i can see pcs needing at least the same probably more.
all next gen titles need 6gb by the looks of it. Its not like Rams expensive any how.
haven't you actually considered that by making the digital version the game the same price as the physical one they're actually increasing the value proposition of the physical copy.
If digital games were always cheaper, people wouldn't by physical copies anymore. Nintendo/sony/MS don't want you to buy digital as it just means they take a bigger hit on the physical discs and more importantly it would piss off retail outlets. which the big three need to sell t...
Its creating value because the end product, or the game itself is identical. The only difference as far as nintendo are concerned, is the delivery method.
Which is no different to any other console or pc game. steam games, when first released cost the same as they do at retail.
When nintendo speak of value they also talk about the net worth of their ip. They value it far higher than their hardware so they'll not do anything to make it lose its value over...
pfft, i'd take mikami and especially Carmaks words over Rubins any day of the week.
I bet this doesn't include digital sales. Everyone seems to forget that in japan the games on the eshop for the wiiu are cheaper than they are at retail by `10-15%.
A prequel might work, but i think that's going to be what the DLC covers, I wouldbn't want a sequel though. Its perfect just as it is.
I don't think it will, CoD is the most casual game going, the kind of people that pick it up every year are also the same poeple that don't read reviews.
He might die just not the way you tell it, because in Lords of Shadow Alucard is Trevor and he loses the cross.
Part of me is realyl hoping that this has a kind of MGS2 bait and switch thing going on and you spend 99% of the game playing as Alucard.
could be. just seems weird they'd get rid of it. could have been a balancing issue maybe. As i said. i hope i'm wrong.
This whole debaucle makes me laugh because i read the wiiU version will be native 1080p.
They're not needed but it would be great if it finally got a multiplat game that deifnitively showed it was capable of more than current gen systems.
agreed. I have a feeling that whatever monolith are working on may be the thing to do that.
But its not like the machine is incapble of doing online perfectly well, DQX has been on the console since its launch in japan and has managed to avoid most of the pitfalls most other mmos seem to stumble into.
maybe they just don't think its worth the investment.
I'd be lying if i said it wasn't a little worrying. But at the same time people often forget that nintendo has basically lived off 1st and 2nd party exclusives for over a decade.
Although every last Nintendo machine has had some marvelous 3rd party games, very few of them have actualyl come from the big three as i like to think of them. ubi, acti and ea have never been a major part of the success of failure of their consoles.
In short Nintendo don&#...
I think they were trying to get Mario out the way. Miamoto keeps talking about making a new ip, so it's coming.
in the meantime i'd reccommend giving Wonderful 101 a whirl. It's like Viewtiful Joe crossed with Okami and Pikmin with some very Star foxy flying levels thrown in for good measure towards the end.
