Gamer 2.0 writes: "This week we found ourselves at Rockstar's office in downtown Manhattan checking out one of the titles they have been working on lately; no, it's not GTA IV. Instead, we were walked through a bit of both the Wii and Xbox 360 versions of Bully: Scholarship Edition, the next-gen translations of the popular PS2 title which has sold over 2 million copies to date. Although we didn't get to play the game ourselves, we got to see how things have come along thus far, and with two months before release, it's pretty safe to say that it's worth checking out if you've never played the game before."
Bully: Scholarship Edition was an Xbox 360 & Wii re-release of the PS2 classic. Still playable on modern consoles, it'll make you long for a sequel.
A sequel? More likely a remake as is the current trend? No point, everyone wants GTA VI.
It's a shame that basically all of Rockstar's catalogue apart from GTA and Red Dead is now, well, dead.
The R☆ of today is extremely unlikely to put out any project that isn't GTA because of the gaming climate and because GTA is stupidly self sustaining.
Gone are the days of a mainline title and a portable tie-in/standalone title of the same name just like publishers putting out multiple fighters at once.
Costs are too high and mainline titles have become too gargantuan to allow for "risks" on lesser titles that may not take off or sell.
Take Capcom for example, and SF6. We are unlikely to ever see a new installment of their other fighters like Rival School or Darkstalkers because SF6 is more popular, recognized and costly. A new Darkstalkers in the RE Engine would look sick as f*ck, and would visually be unlike any other fighter if done right. Sadly though, it's not as recognizable as SF and Capcom is unlikely to put so much on the line for something that might not catch.
If there’s to be a sequel it should be at the college/university level. Otherwise its just going to be a rehash of the same progression and story.
Yes, at one point, people really were angry about Night Trap.
Here's a list of Xbox 360/PS3 games that would be great on the Nintendo Switch (at a modest, reasonable price of course). These games could really flourish if given a new lease on life, introducing a new generation to their greatness.
I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope
I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.
Deus Ex Human Revolution would be a great title to The Holy Grail of All Consoles aka The Nintendo Switch*. Also Haze Remastered, Grand Theft Auto 4 and 5 Remastered, Silent Hill HD Collection, Max Payne 3 Remastered, Call of Duty World At War Remastered, The Orange Box Remastered, Halo Master Chief Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Remastered, Metal Gear Solid 4 Remastered, Afro Samurai Remastered, Demons Souls Remastered, Xmen Destiny Remastered, Jack and Daxter Collection, Def Jam Icon Remake, Folklore Remastered, Spiderman Edge of Time Remastered, Persona 5 remastered, the list goes on. (*Best Selling Console of All Time)
Seriously? Isn't it time Nintendo make a Switch successor? I mean they have the sales and money.
It is freezing like hell in Manhattan. I'm glad I'm in the office.
I never really picked up Bully, probably because by the time it came out I had already moved on to the next gen, so it'll be interesting checking out the "director's cut."
Seeing as I didn't get to play it on PS2 when it came out I'll be looking into this version. The PS2 version was pretty good apparently, so I'm looking forward to this one.
I'll at least rent this. Rockstar typically brings out quality games.
I've never played this, though I've wanted to try it. I may buy it if the price is low, or once it goes down. I wouldn't likely pay full price. I'm also glad to see they aren't abandoning obviously ambitious franchises.
