Game Informer has revealed their top 200 games of all time, across all platforms, including titles from this generation.
A gorgeous real-world Miraidon from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has been created in Japan by the Toyota Engineering Society.
JDR thinks the gaming industry needs more licensed IPs. It's basically a cry for Firefly: The Game, and why not? JDR delves deeper into why more isn't adapted for the interactive screen.
Nah. Video games are their own thing they wouldn't be improved by leeching off Hollywood more.
Read the article and it gives no mention of the many problems prevalent with licensed IPs, such as games and dlc being delisted when their licenses expire, Adult Swim games being the most recent example.
Only if they're good, if its going to be a 2D sprite art game, you can get away with a small team and small budget. But if you're going to make it a 3D polygonal game, you're going to need a large team with a large budget, and often times these licensed games are quickly pushed out the door, unpolished, rough, boring, bland, snorefest at best, and downright broken at worst.
We have an Indiana Jones and James Bond game currently being developed by two veteran teams with I assume fairly sizeable budgets. Let's hope they turn out to be worthwhile.
A new Mad Max game to coincide with the upcoming film would have been awesome. I loved the first game, I'm guessing it didn't sell too well as they never bothered following it up.
"The Game Music Foundation are today very proud and pleased to announce an additional concert, circling back to the roots of Game Muisic Festival in Poland. On April 28th, 2024, the National Forum of Music in Wroclaw will once again become a place to celebrate the art of video game music, featuring scores from The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part II." - The Game Music Foundation.
Well, I know this list is going to be very controversial since people have different opinions. Personally, though, while I absolutely love Zelda, I wouldn't have put that game at number one.
no killzone on that list btw
i stop read in :
187. Infamous (PS3, 2009)
191. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2, 2004)
fail list is fail..
Interesting that Jak 3 is there. I personally think that 3 is the weakest of the series. Jak 2's the best for me.
One thing that I do agree with in this list is that they didn't include games from this gen. in the Top 10... don't get me wrong, there's been some great game released this gen., but games from a console generation ago and more really set the groundwork for what we play today, and they really deserve to be in the Top 10.
Other thoughts:
- After taking the entire list into account, I was kind of surprised they listed God of War so high at #26.
- Definitely don't agree with GTA4 being rated higher than GTA San Andreas
- I think that either SoTC and Ico or both should've at least been in the top 50.
- MGS3 should be listed MUCH closer to MGS2.
- Very nice to see that 2 PS3 exclusives that were just released this year alone (Uncharted 2 and Infamous) made GameInformer's list.
I also think GameInformer pretty much just revealed their 2009 GOTY. Only 5 games released in 2009 made this list: Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, Infamous, Borderlands, and Batman: AA... and Uncharted 2 is listed the highest out of all of them :)
