7 best video games of november

Feihc Retsam - 812 days 8 hours ago

This list could be pretty accurate.
Nobody has confirmed that Assassin's Creed will not be out in November yet, and I'm sure your not a reliable industry source.
I have to think that Mass Effect will be an amazing game through 2008, not just November, and anyone who played the COD4 beta knows that the game is a beast.
Haze looks like it has potential, but enough hasn't been shown of it yet to make me think it will be better than Assassin's Creed or COD4.

I would bump Rock band for Haze and Uncharted for Fear Files. And yes I prefer fps above just about anything, but that's just me.

Haze? The Halo clone with, bad textures, fuzzy environments and lack of original art direction? That game will be decent, at best.

Mass Effect on the other hand, will be revolutionary.

c'mon, it's Ubisoft.
Assassin's Creed will be out in November for the 360, i guarantee it.
i'll eat my words and appologize if it doesn't.

i do think it's going to get delayed on the PS3.

Dude totally.

Stoked about all these. I am still curious about ME. Ima get it for sure. I hope it appeals to enough people though. I stand by what I said before as that... I feel it wont appeal to enough people as its a SciFi RPG Action games... Its also not Starwars(Proven Franchise) I dont know any others in this franchise that did well off the bat(I can't even name a game that fits this genre) I think it may bomb at first and pick up later.

I'm not knocking the game I'm just saying I think something Like Drake will appeal to many more people off the bat is all.... just cause of design and what it is.

Mario on the other hand is gonna rock. I can't wait for that game.

These times are awesome man. Im stoked. JC! GO GET YOUR PS3 ALREADY MAN!!!1! Can't wait to own you =P

Only thing I dont agree with is NG DS... Seriously... If they want that on the list it should be 7...

Oh, you're going to OWN me bro?...you're going to open a funky can of whoop a$$, good buddy? "thems iz fightin' wordz"...lol...look forward to a CHALLENGE...I think Mass Effect is going to be BIG man...yeah, Gears BIG...yeah, 500,000 - 800,000 software units sold in November alone if Microsoft nails the marketing BIG...I think Sony packaging the PSP with the Star Wars game and Halo 3 proves that sci-fi is pretty hot right now, to put it nicely...but, I agree, Uncharted looks SO GOOD...drop dead gorgeous...me likeee...and the combat building on Gears is a nice compliment, like the article said...did I mention it was drop dead gorgeous? and Uncharted does have Mass Effect...sorry, I meant mass APPEAL...or maybe I meant Mass Effect Appeal...shameless plug...40 GB FTW!

Yeah Ima Skeptic man. It seems to me like "Dune" A large group of devoted people. SciFi is a hard market. and SciFi RPG Shooters seem to me to be a hard push. Will the speech system really appeal to everyone? I hope so. I'm looking forward to it like I said but the Genre is a really "Ify" one I think. Seriously. Here is what I gotta see from the view of "Guy dont know jack about games walks into store"

A. Treasure Hunter with Gears of War style Shooting, Strong Indiana Jones style Story, Beautiful Grafics, Cool Characters, All the simple gameplay designs that appeal to people but they add a few new things that are good. Giving you a main Character everyone can relate to and maybe even "Aspire to be"

Or

B. Sci Fi/ RPG/ Shooter with Speech controls and a LONG story Dealing with polotics, Religious debacle and opinionated storylines. The videos of it to me are hit and miss. It looks good. But no one on earth will live to see this kind of thing unfold. hence hard to relate to...

There are some issues to me personally but I think as a selling game... Who is it marketed to? I feel a small group really... I am in that group as are most N4G Dorks like me and JC. and Xbox loyalists. Still though. I am seriously just a fan of Video games. I hope that the issues I have seen are not bad in the game. I hope there are more then 3 enemies on the screen at once and that pacing is better then it looks. I also hope that its a story I can relate to and doesn't get confusing and boring... I think they can pull it off but failing in any of these elements will kill it hard. I hope its smooth and quick.

The one thing I am hating about Folklore is all the load times. They get freakin old quick to me... I like the game but find myself getting bored with it due to this... If these issues are in either of these games they will have to make up for it big which Folklore doesn't.

Thats why I think it is gonna be hard. Its hard to break through in the Sci Fi genre. Why I feel Tabula Rasa (Bad ass beta btw) will also fail to games like WOW or WAR. Cause people would rather play as an "Orc" or "Witch" then a "Space Marine" or "Universe Frontier Fighter" or whatever...

But Seriously guys I hope it does really well. I really do. But in your opinion if you were to pick up a MMO and play for a while. Which would it be. Tabula Rasa, World of Warcraft or the new "Spy" MMO sony is coming out with or the "Marvel" or "DC" ones? I think the last one on most peoples list would be Tabula Rasa. Just because of the genre... I feel a lot of people dont like it as much as the others.... I hope I'm wrong though =P

Breaking through is the hard part. Starwars and Halo are already there.

BTW JC Pick your poison. COD4(Demo rocks!!!!)? Gears? Haze? Halo3(I suck at this but will try)? UT3? Nah you'll probably own me but I'll give you will have to work for it =P

Anyway bubbles for both of you. Because every 360 owner should buy ME. And cause you both rock and aren't biased. I admit I can be at times but I wont knock anyone for their tastes either.

@ JC.

Nope I gotta go check my mail. Ima go do that. Gameinformer seems to be the only source I like anymore... This place too sometimes.

I need to buy a damn PSP but... Man with all the stuff I own already. I can't even get through Phantom Hourglass.... Let alone Folklore. I need a vacation or something so I can actually play this stuff. =P

Game on bro.

you already know what I'm about to say...game on bro...and bubbles up for you too...the beauty of this Holiday is that there is truly, without a doubt, a title for everyone's tastes when you include all consoles and handhelds...did you happen to catch the Game Informer review of Mass Effect? They had some pretty great and BOLD things to say about the game, to say the least...

I believe its at least guaranteed to appeal to those that bought KOTOR. Sure, it doesn't have the Star Wars liscence to help push the game, but I'm sure that KOTOR fans are at least aware of Mass Effect and its makers. Because of this, and the 360s crazy attach rate for games, I think that, at minimum, Mass Effect should sell 1 million copies if not more. I know I'm getting it first and foremost before any other game that comes out during that time.

there was an article recently stating how they were having problems with both systems. they were having compression problems with the 360, which they WILL figure out.

on the PS3 they were having dev problems...and everyone knows it's wayyy too close to the release date to be having dev problems...that in itself stands for DELAY.

All that really matters is that all of these games come out next month, and there will be a lot of great games to play. By the way, Haze was on his list, but not in his top seven. Remember the key word though, "his".

what the hell is "pass effect"? not sure if that's trying to be funny or if you actually just were dumb enough to spell it wrong.

1. mass effect 2. Assassin's Creed 3. Uncharted 4. COD 4 5. Rock Band

Mass Effect shouldn't be a pass for anyone. Haze hopefully is better than I feel it will turn out (decent). If Haze somehow manages to clone Halo 3's controls and weapon balance excellence it will be a must buy for me. Waiting to rent it at the least.

I knew there was a Wii fanboy SOMEWHERE on this site...nice to finally meet you...where you been hiding at?...serious though, I need to see some enthusiasm from the Wii guys with Mario Galaxy releasing so soon and all...wonder what the marketing is going to be...back in the day, they even spent in total, including $10 million worth of Taco-Bell cross-promotion, a cool $20 million on Diddy Kong Racing 64!...PM me if you think I'm joking...they usually spend $6-7 million on 'normal' Nintendo games...this, my friend, ain't 'normal'...and Mario made me fall in love with video games, so much respect...

hey man DS is alright. I got one a month ago and I'm so glad I did. FF 12 game on the ds is actually my second. Now saying that, no DS game should be on that list. No handheld game should snub a console or pc game.

joydestroy - 812 days ago

seriously, i think everyone is forgetting about Army of Two and Kane & Lynch: Dead Men.

Army of Two looks top notch for a co-op based game.
Kane & Lynch doesn't look quite as good, but i think it's co-op gameplay will make it awesome as well.
