What's the most hyped you've ever been about an upcoming game?

The PC Gamer staff, and a few readers, share their hype stories about the games that had them the most excited over the years.

No Man's Sky...

...and then came the let down.

Eonjay2141d ago

Kingdom Hearts III but that is literally hype built over a decade. Thats kinda like organic hype, because there are only two possibilities: one, you lose hope in ever getting to play it or you're hype just builds and builds until its out of this world.

I didn't open my ps4 for 3 years because my wife said "open it when you pass the driving test (theory + practical)"

I passed it just after GOW release and before my theory expired so that I can open the ps4 and play GOW :D

How on earth were you able to wait? Especially if you had possession of it. You are a strong willed person.

AspiringProGenji2141d ago

So far God of War. I stopped driving long distances for the fear of dying in an accident before it came, and the game lived up to the hype.

Switch4One2141d ago

Hahaha! Bloody brilliant! I'm glad there's someone who thinks like me here.
Although for me that kind of thinking was reserved for Avengers Infinity War.

Spider-Man PS4 is the most hyped I've ever been for a game in a long time. Last time I bought a console out of sheer hype was Uncharted 2 and mind you it was already out when I did that.

Looool this made me spit my drink out laughter

SegaGamer2141d ago

Shenmue 3. I have never been more excited for a game as much as this one. This is a game i have been waiting for since i completed Shenmue 2, something i thought was never going to happen.

Eonjay2141d ago

This probably tops the list. The wait for this has been longer than Kingdom Hearts 3.

purple1012141d ago

Was God of war. Now Ghost of Tushima. Sucker punch haven't released a game in a long time, making me think they have poured love time and effort into this one, plus I have a penchant for Japanese Samurai way of life and its one of my top interests... As I'm sure it it for many people too.

They are mo-capping REAL HORSES for god sake!

Peace

I absolutely love the PS1 titles but the Xbox games just didn't have the same feeling as the original. I hyped up for Soulstorm but after New-n-Tasty, I have tempered expectations.

i think the only real loss is GTAV

OtterX9d ago

I think everyone and their sister owns the game by now. They likely want to squeeze the rest of the holdouts before GTAVI releases.

Profchaos9d ago

That game comes and goes from subscriptions so frequently I think it's expected now. Like rdr2 on gamepass Rockstar Games only last a max of 3 months On a service

MrBaskerville9d ago

Talos Principle is the real loss.

BanginTunes8d ago

Facts that game is good as fuck I'm playing through 2 now, very underrated

Huey_My_D_Long9d ago

indivisible was pretty neat. Cute artstyle, fun throwback to older RPGs, shame its leaving but it is on sale often

shinoff21839d ago

Definitely. I e joyed what I played of it. Still gotta grab the physical at some point

Petebloodyonion9d ago

I'm not surprised by GTA V removal, Rockstar never allows this game to stay long on a subscription service.
They usually allow 4 to 6 months.

lodossrage9d ago

Yeah, they do that routinely with both GTA and Red Dead.

But it's because they know they can still sell them so they take them off and on to these sub services in cycle.

The weird thing to me is why is anyone still buying those games at this point? You would think after 3 generations of being sold GTA 5 that everyone and their momma would have it by now

RNTody9d ago

I fail to see how the loss of an almost 11 year old game that released across 3 generations is in any way a problem.
