Short Pause: "With Anthem’s first demo weekend in the books, Brent, Ben, and Frankie get together to discuss their first experience with Bioware’s new sci-fi loot shooter. The demo had its fair share of well-documented issues, but after cutting through all of the technical and other assorted issues with the game this weekend, is there a promising game beneath the surface?"
The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.
A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."
I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.
That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit
GF365: "Among all the well-received and beloved video games, there are some that are horrendous. Here are our picks for the worst big budget games released since 2010."
Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.
"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.
I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.
The PlayStation Summer sale expands with a load of new discounts.
Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.
Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.
Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.
I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.
Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
I’d probably give it a chance if they fixed the issues and if division wasn’t right around the corner
It's that botched bit though... I tried the demo and while I had a blast playing with friends, I had no desire to continue into my weekend playing, the infinite load glitch ruined it for me. Funny really because they called it the "VIP demo" yet really, the VIPs were nothing but glorified beta testers.
