I think its best thing from this new. Majestic is rather cool for the title.

raWfodog2410d ago (Edited 2410d ago )

I'll be picking the game up (eventually) for my PS4 but this XB1X footage does look beautiful. I wished the blood splatter on the ground would persist but I guess the devs are trying to free up as much assets as possible to keep the game running as smooth as possible.

I'm buying this day one but will not play it til I get my 1X

Genuine-User2410d ago

Why are you buying it on day one then?

Genuine-User2410d ago (Edited 2410d ago )

I know, you don't need to state the obvious.

He might get a better deal if he picks it up with the One X.

Xerneas2410d ago

He might, but maybe he doesn't care.

jagermaster6192410d ago

I'm buying it on day one and not playing it till I get my x on the 7th. The reason for getting it on day one is because if I pre-order it from Amazon prime and I save almost $15.

Genuine-User2410d ago

@Xerneas

Okay

@jagermaster619

Now that's a good reason to get on day one even if you don't plan to play it immediately.

IllI'll be buying this game when it hits $10.

PFFT2410d ago

I couldnt wait for my X so i reserved it for the PS4. F that noise im not waiting! The game looks to good to wait.

chrisoadamson2410d ago

Lol what a load of bullshit

PFFT2409d ago

How much are you willing to bet???? I am currently playing Shadow of War and The Evil Within 2 on my Pro.

AbhishekGIS2410d ago

AC is back with a bang
they nailed the ancient Egypt
just waiting for the reviews
probably it will have 85 -88 metacritic

meka26112410d ago

Still looks like more of the same to me.

bluefox7552410d ago

Agreed. They changed the setting, but the formula is still the same. Same boring combat. Same boring open world errands to run. The games have always looked pretty, that was never the issue, the issue is the formula has become stale IMO.

Zeref2410d ago

same combat? lol this is completely different.

meka26112410d ago

Actually the combat is different but looks worse to me. I love dark souls but always hated when games make the triggers the attack button, and that's what this did, what's wrong with face buttons for use? Combat looks more clunky to me, like dark souls. Not knocking anyone that wants to play it, just stating it looks like more of the same for me and worse combat now.

Count_Bakula2410d ago (Edited 2410d ago )

Actually them changing the combat to a lame hack-and-slash with health bars is exactly why I'm not moving forward with AC. Chaining combat was one of the best parts of the series.

phoenixwing2410d ago

All the ppl suddenly like the old combat when it was one of the most glaring problems. I for one found it ridiculously easy. I cant help but be happy with the changes to combat.

3-4-52410d ago

Exactly.

Do A, then B, then C....rinse repeat.

Setting looks fresh, graphics look good, but it's the same thing.

Same type of missions, in the same type of way...

I'm out still.

mark_parch2409d ago

the combat couldn't be more different have you even played previous games. this looks way better less hand holding and more tactical thinking and movement like dark souls

timotim2410d ago

That's texture work is crazy! This might be my first AC ever buying.

Zeref2410d ago

this is on xbox one x though. Won't look like that on other consoles

timotim2410d ago

True...not too impressed with the animations and movement though

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Immagaiden391d ago

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar391d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter391d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313391d ago (Edited 391d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981391d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman391d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.

Historically accurate from the past is tough to truly know and judge especially the farther you go back because history is written from the people in power and doesn’t mean it’s the truth just the narrative they wanted to tell.

I don’t care about historically accurate in most games because they are games not biographies or history books . Just make the game fun , good gameplay and such .

Ghost of Tsushima wasn’t historically accurate in many things but I loved the game . Many examples like it .
