It’s been nearly 18 months since the release of the Xbox One; just think about that for a second. It’s quite a long time, when you get down to it. The Xbox 360 had a lifespan of around 9 years, so by that reckoning we’re, what, 16% (or just under 1/6th for the fractionally-minded) of the way through this generation, if that longevity continues to this one.
Halo Infinite has spilt screen PvP, but it's still missing another classic multiplayer feature that should be completed before Halo 7.
George Miller expressed dismay toward the 2015 Mad Max game recently, but Avalanche Studios' take on the lore is still so good to this day.
I think the funny thing is if Kojima made a Mad Max game it would be so trippy and "out there" I don't think it would feel like Mad Max by the time he's done with it. This is why he's better off with original new IPs.
Kojima seems like a buzz word these film directors use because he's probably the only big name they've heard from the gaming industry.
Article is correct in my opinion, Miller is wrong. That Death Stranding II trailer is bonkers, looking forward to that in itself.
And I agree, unless Mr Kojima wants to change his tune, or laughably, be told what to do, you're right, it wouldn't be Mad Max or close.
Yup, Kojima really doesn't suit Mad Max. Avalanche did a great job though. It looked, felt, and played like what I'd expect from a Mad Max game. I really enjoyed my time with it, and the sand storms were handled incredibly well.
I never played it but the recent buzz around Mad Max has piqued my interest. Will check it out this year for sure
MM is not a perfect game by any means as it was held back by lots of repetitious, standard open-world copy and paste missions, but the devs SO perfectly captured the world, atmosphere, lore and brutality. It also just so happens to boast one of THE best photo modes out there and some of the most impressive explosions I've ever seen in a game to date. The car combat is of course another impressive standout, both vicious and fun. MM is a game which I have revisited multiple times since its release, and now having just seen Furiosa, I can feel it calling me back again.
There's a ton to love there, but I think you'll pickup on the areas where the devs struggled likely due to reigning in the scope, budget and time constraints, leading to an incredibly fun, albeit uneven experience. Though, as mentioned, it's absolutely a game worth experiencing once, and I truly hope you enjoy it. The game really does deserve a sequel.
Word for word. Exactly this. A lot of fun to be had in there. A true Mad Max game. Sequel can’t come soon enough.
Honestly, Kojima would do the game justice, but given his studio's current workload, it's a bit far flung. I could much rather see Bend Studios (Days Gone dev) doing a Mad Max follow-up. I'm playing through DG right now for the first time and I see lots of similarities between the games to where imo Bend could develop an impressive MM sequel.
While i like the Mad Max game and think it's underrated...i don't know why people are mad at George Miller for not liking the game based on the IP he created. Especially since a lot of people hated it at release as well looking at that 69% metacritic.
If you're looking to punch your way to a Victory Royale, here's how to get Nitro Fists in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.
If
Forza Horizon 2
Halo MCC
Sunset Overdrive
Killer Instinct
Forza 5
Ori and the blind forest
Ryse
Titanfall and
Dead rising is not a whole lot then this guy clearly has no clue what he is talking about. Forza Horizon 2 and Sunset Overdrive were my fabourite games of 2014 and both redefined their genres and at the moment Ori is the best platformer i have ever played.
Then we have
Halo 5
Quantum break
Smite
Gigantic
State of Decay
Tomb raider
Fable Legends
Forza 6
and hopefully a Gears collection.
Xbox is going stronger than ever and is sucking in every dollar i have. But i have enjoyed every second from day one.
I currently own 56 games on Xbox. In previous generation I didn't keep more than 8. Love my box.
i agree with the article...Its doing far worse than the 360 for me...Of course big part of this was the really bad start in minds of gamers with all this anti consumer policies...I hope it gets better by the time... ps4 needs stronger opposition...Its good for all of us gamers... If it has greater genre coverage i think it will get reflected in WW sales instead of US and UK only...
Its only March and so far
-3 Major updates
-Forza Motorsport 6 was announced
-Forza Horizon 2 meets Fast and Furious announced

Great system. I bought for exclusives, the controller, the online. Zero regrets. Hope to get a PS4 some day to go through all of their exclusives as well =)
