Telltale now making anything about everything that might sell.

nicksetzer13418d ago (Edited 3418d ago )

To be fair, this is going to be pretty huge if they do it right. It's a pretty exciting idea frankly.

That in mind though, this could just as easily be a total disaster too, if not executed correctly.

TomShoe3418d ago

Little kids will buy it no matter how bad it is. I expect Telltale to do a good job though.

AliTheSnake13418d ago

Is it really that easy to make these kind of games ? lol. Telltale been making them in bulk. Not that i mind, as long as they're good.

Canary3418d ago (Edited 3418d ago )

What would the correct execution be?

Minecraft is all about emergent narrative. You can't make a story out of that, because there is zero intentional narrative content within the confines of the game.

Xof3417d ago

^--So there are people out there that think Minecraft has a story, characters, dialog, etc.? Goddamn.

troylazlow3417d ago

they haven't let us down yet, and I don't think they will here either.

haha seriously :D damn hope it's at least good :P

styferion3418d ago

tbh I think it's a good challenge for Telltale, instead of making a game based on franchise with rich lore and background stories now they have to make a story out of a sandbox game with no story at all.

sinspirit3418d ago

Unless they allow players to create their own cutscenes, dialogue, etcetera for them to play and share I don't expect it to be that good. MC is largely about creativity. Heck, they could even add Kinect support for animation and body tracking to record it. Otherwise if it's just another point and click game where you must chose one over the other I don't know how far it's going to go in MineCraft lore.

im eager to play it man....exciting

Snookies123418d ago (Edited 3418d ago )

I'm not really against it or for it... I'm just confused, lol. I suppose it could be cool if done right, but I have no idea what they're going to do with it.

saposaposapo3418d ago

Still on Playstation I see...MS, your not so dumby after all.

GearSkiN3418d ago

Ur dumb for not realizing till now

Would be really funny if Sony rejects the new content from PlayStation consoles. Like they did with EA access.

NuggetsOfGod3418d ago (Edited 3418d ago )

If it sells most on ps4 then good for MS anyway Lol

That one smart business move lol.

@Bigpappy Lol that would be funny if Sony said its not
a good value.

Sony is not stupid. It might say M$ in the back
of the ps4 box though. Lol MS is smart.

Even if it sells most on ps4 MS still wins Lol.

Will ps4 fanboys buy it? Awkward situation....

This indeed is bigger than the console war

redwin3418d ago

Titanfall time Exclusive for Xbox and pc, soon to be in ps4
Tomb raider time exclusive for Xbox and PC, will come to ps4
Minecraft for everyone, PC, ps4 and Xbox

Ms is for the players, no matter where you play. (It will be great if the wii u jumps in too, I'm sure MS would like to publish for them too).

redwin3417d ago

Is street fighter acquired by Sony by the players? I'm just saying that all those games that have been in other platforms will still be in other platforms at a later date including minecraft. I'm from an age that I can understand that what they are doing is business. Dude, you have lots of anger, let it go. Lol.

troylazlow3417d ago

MS could have made this a console exclusive to combat Street Fighter... ahhh the power of MONEY!

This was a very smart move for MS. MS gets paid for every copy sold regardless of the platform, and no one looses out. Everyone wins!

shinoff218346d ago

I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.

Cacabunga46d ago

Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1

Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.

Name Last Name46d ago

I mean some sequels are objectively better and you don’t need to play the whole series.

Inverno45d ago

But most of these games have a story to follow, sure you can catch up with a YouTube vid but where's the fun in that?

LucasRuinedChildhood45d ago (Edited 45d ago )

A list like this isn't telling you not to play the previous games if you want to. It's just giving you legendary games to play.

But tbh, you don't always have to force yourself to play every entry in a franchise to get to the better ones.

- The vast majority of Witcher 3 players never played the first 2 and had a great time. The first 2 games aren't in the same league.
- The GTA games are self-contained with the odd fun reference. You can easily jump into any of them.
- The Shadow Of The Colossus remake looks and controls better than the original (plus it has a 60fps option while the remaster is just 30fps). New players will enjoy it more.
- Portal 2 is a lot better than Portal 1 and takes the concept much further gameplay-wise. Storywise, Portal 1 is fairly light too. Not that you shouldn't play it but realistically ... you'd love Portal 2 whether you play it or not (at lot of Portal 2 players have never played 1).

Bioshock 1 is the only one I agree with you on simply because it's one the best games of all time and arguably better than Infinite. No other setting like Rapture.

Looking at the list, I'd recommend playing Uncharted 1 before 2 but no doubt, 2 is the legendary one you have to play.

Inverno45d ago

I get it, but that's just my opinion on his opinion. I just think that before you play a sequel you should still play what came before it. Maybe it's just me but i find it fascinating playing through the first game in a series and seeing how it has evolved through its sequels. Like I said I don't disagree with the list, other than SoTC which I strongly believe the remaster of the original should be played above the remake.

AuraAbjure45d ago

Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.

Minecraft Bedrock Introduces Official Add-Ons To Marketplace

Minecraft Bedrock is introducing add-ons to the marketplace. The add-ons can now be added to many existing and new worlds.

Jin_Sakai66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Nice! Next up, shaders on consoles.

“A new update is improving how mods work for Minecraft Bedrock. Mojang has introduced add-ons to the marketplace.”

“These add-ons can now easily be added to new and existing worlds instead of being tied to a single world.
There are plenty of free and paid add-ons that will let you customize just about anything in your world.”

OtterX65d ago

So RayTracing is no longer locked to the NVIDIA maps? I know there was a workaround, but it will be nice to have easier access to all worlds.
