the game looks like a ps3 game at best... nothing looks like a ps5 here

cluclap1487d ago

You haven't played PS3 much, have you?

Im not much of a lord of the rings fan but I know that gollum looks nothing like gollum we all know and love in this game. Why did they get it so wrong? Considering its a game about gollum, they could have at least got that right.

Spurg1489d ago (Edited 1489d ago )

Looks good and I want to see more of these types of games. AA games that offer a short and enjoyable experience. This gen has seen these types of games disappear and developers focus on giving player an open world rather than an enjoyable adventure. I can almost see these types of games making a comeback. Big up to Focus interactive and THQ Nordic for publishing these types of games.

jimbost791488d ago

Alright mate, not to be a nob but how have these types of games disappeared? There's literally hundreds of short, enjoyable non open world experiences to be played from this gen.

Wetpapertowel1488d ago

Maybe since there is a lack of them on Xbox. I don't think Spurg has a PS4.

DerfDerf1488d ago

@Wetpapertowel

There are tons of games that fit that criteria on Xbox....

Didn't they say don't expect the same Gollum from the film? He looks roughly the same.

glad you said that, cause i dont think he looks anything like him

Smclaren19851488d ago

Agreed looks quite diff to be honest it’s due to copyright from the film apparently but most people including me will look and say that doesn’t look like him! Lol itl be another one of those games that’s forgotten about the sec it comes out lol

They are some horrendous looking screenshots! The art direction has fallen flat on its face.

GTgamer1488d ago

Yeah I definitely expected more but this was underwhelming

MajorLazer1488d ago (Edited 1488d ago )

Agreed. Severely underwhelmed, even if they were from the base PS4.

Hellcat20201488d ago

Doesn’t look all that great for next gen
Look at that hair..geez

2023 Proved That More Studios Need To Release Demos First

Najam from eXputer writes "A great year for gaming has been marred with some massive stinkers."

ROCKY28159d ago

will not happen to trash games - they need to hide them until release

anast159d ago

Yeah PC got a lot of bad ports this year. Imagine paying all that money for a gaming machine and getting this stuff.

toxic-inferno159d ago

As the article points out, Lies of P is one of the greatest examples of a demo success story in recent memory.

I was always interested in the game, but a little sceptical. However, simply by the fact that the developers were releasing a demo several months prior to release made me sit up. It showed confidence in their product, and that confidence was - as it turned out - well placed. In my 2 hours of playing through the demo (just one playthrough, with a lot of time exploring and testing out weapons etc), I was convinced it was going to be worthwhile. And not only that, but the developers used the demo to improve on their product. The result was a win for both developer and consumer.

In other news, if anybody is still on the Fence about playing Lies of P, it will not surprise you that I highly recommend it.

shinoff2183158d ago

That lies of p demo was dope. Imma dl it to try more next time I turn the Xbox on. If I like it I'll cop a ps5 physical since I prefer physical. I'll support the company that still releases a good amount of physical games, Sony and ninty

AlterRecs155d ago

The Bloodborne PC port we never got.

Love the game

Inverno159d ago

If anything it proves the need for more honest media previews, and some common bloody sense. So many games get these developer interview style previews with devs just blatantly lying, knowing their game is incomplete and broken. And if the game looks like utter trash and you buy it then you're an idiot. Idk how anyone could've gotten excited for Golem after the first reveal.

shinoff2183158d ago

Not sure why cod is pictured. As if the that base would stand up for itself. NO, we won't pay 70 dollars for some dlc fk that.

Ppl are still reviewing this garbage?
You reviewed a game that was already well known to be trash, and yet gave it a score that everyone knew it would be. Day late dollar short buddy!

coolbeans291d ago

Given how buggy it was at launch, I don't see the issue with evaluating after its major patches have released. Also, can we just drop this notion of being late to the party? You see a game, you play the game, and you review the game. It doesn't have to be more complicated than that.

anast292d ago

Gollum has a nice 20 player counter average over the last 30 days.
