Gearbox's Randy Pitchford, speaking to the XCN has mentioned that EA's WWII Medal of Honor series has "the most to worry about" as it's stuck between Call of Duty and Brothers in Arms. Check out the interview as well as what he has to say about the recently released tactical shooter.
The Brothers In Arms series is one of the most fondly beloved World War 2 shooters ever made, but will it ever make a comeback?
Brothers in Amrs and Earned in Blood were brilliant. The amount of passion that went into them by Gearbox, who was then a young company, was incredible. The franchise just died after that which is sad. Hell's Highway just wasn't made with the same passion. And let's not talk about the cancelled BiA4, that looked so wrong on so many levels.
Some Easter eggs and secrets aren’t actually that hard to find. Sometimes they are even connected to achievements or trophies in-game, making them very easy to locate. But some secrets are much harder to find and honestly make me wonder how anyone ever finds these things.
PC Aficionado: "We're all excited for Call of Duty: WWII, but it's still awhile away from releasing. We pick out five alternative WWII games to play in the meantime."
Rather than talk about other games? Let the games speak themselves.
I mean, Cliffy B, Peter molyneux, this guy, Denis dyack from Too human. All these guys need to learn something from Ted price of Insomniac. Even of somebody asks a question about any other game or studio, he never ever says anything about them.
His comments are valid though, and in a genre that is crowded, and especially with WWII inspired games, then you do have to do something different.
Naturally he's bigging up his own title, but at least BIAs isn't just a bog standard COD copy cat game and adds its own flavor to the gameplay (ie. squad based gameplay).
of course "passing the buck". Who cares about "Medal of Honor", why did you let your company release the pile of fail that is BiA: HH.
Don't get me wrong the single player is fun <besides the horrible hit detection>, but the online is stupid.
Companies like people need to worry about their own house before talking about others.
BiA:HH is a great game they just need to skip multiplayer and focus evven more on single player because that is where its at for this series.
I did not end up buying Medal of Honor after the demo (may get it cheap one of these days). I love BiA tatical warfare like I liked GRAW, RB6 and last gens Full Spectrum Warrior. For straight up run and gun FPS though COD (2 and 4) are really at the top of the heap.
and that's probably why Resistance didn't turn out to be stellar. Peter Moleneux and Cliffy B have all sold stellar games worthy of recognition, look at the sales charts. Maybe ted price should learn a little something from THEM.
