WWG celebrates the greatest wrestling games on Nintendo platforms, including some N64 cult classics.
Microsoft's Activision subsidiary announced today that it is opening a new game development studio to take advantage of the huge talent pool growing in Poland. It'll be the second Activision studio based in the region, joining Infinity Ward Krakow, although this studio is, in fact, not working on Call of Duty.
Ubisoft says they are focusing on two "core verticals," and that's to return as a leader in the open world genre, and live service games.
Calling Ubisoft a leader in open world gaming at any point in time would be like calling Dollar General a leader in retail.
I don't think they were ever the leader tbh. I've never really cared for any of their open world games. I do wanna try watch dogs 2 because it looks like it's set in San Fran. Looked interesting
Xbox and EA have recently made baffling moves that define how bleak the future of the gaming industry is with major companies at the helm. Ryan Bates from "Last Word on Gaming" posits in this op-ed that maybe it's not ineptitude, but intention.
Name someone that isn't trying to look us these days maybe cdpr.
Take two, ubi and yes even PlayStation are pushing us to own nothing and be happy with our live service ad injected games on a sub so they can raise prices at will and take access away when they see fit.
If it keeps up I'll be a full time retro gamer and this industry will be crashing hard
As rediculas as it sounds we need government reforms to defend consumer rights
should have added that Tom & Jerry game for the N64 as well!
For me World Tour, Revenge and Day of Reckoning are my favorite wrestling games period. Day of Reckoning played a lot like World Tour and Revenge before it but that create a wrestler made that game a dream come true. I remember making numerous like different Spider-Man variants (Classic suit and OG Scarlet Spider, Venom, The Predator, Axel and Blaze from SOR and even Yugo from Bloody Roar to name a few characters. The Smackdown games deserve an honorable mention though and yes I know they were Playstation games. They were great party games when I was in college. Jumping from helicopters in Hear Comes the Pain and onto opponents never got old. It was over the top arcade like action.
F all that!! Pro Wrestling on NES
