SXO: The FIFA series has been in a slow but long decline for years now. It used to be my favourite series but from the moment microtransactions took over in the form of Ultimate Team, the series has been going downhill fast.
Microsoft has rolled out an update on the Xbox Game Pass store page and app to reflect the games that will be leaving Xbox Game Pass.
The Last Stop, Fifa 20 (being replaced with 22) Jurassic World Evolution, MotoGP 20.
I won't miss these.
Jurassic World Evolution 2 is on there? Yoooo. I need to play that one! I LOVE the first one.
TMNT is so much fun! That came out of the blue for me! I have only been playing Arcade mode, but it's an instant classic already!
EA have announced in their online service updates notice that FIFA 20 will not be playable on EA Play from July 1, 2022.
Alex S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "There are no two ways about it, 2020 sucked. Many will remember the last 365 days as some of the most trying in living memory and are more than thrilled to cast our 2020 calendars into a large fire. But we can’t really move into 2021 with a clear conscience without totally confronting all the negative things that happened in 2020, including video game releases."
It really hurts to see the XIII Remake in that list. I loved the original game and bought the remake without reading reviews, that was a big mistake. It is sad what they have done to this game.:(
Oh wow! Is it really that bad? Was hoping to give it a go after I play thru my fall backlog
I m sure they will patch a lot of broken things in this game but it will take time. Just wait half a year or a year.
The list became a shit list as soon as Cyberpunk was listed. Just because you played it on your shit base console, doesn't make it one of the worst games of 2020.
Definitely one of the most disappointing, though. It kind of reminds me of Mass Effect 3.
Mass Effect 3 was great up until the ending compared to being Cyberpunked by this game!
ME3 is at least playable and has no game breaking glitches or random crashes unlike Cyberpunk the only thing that blew about ME3 is the ending. I got to enjoy ME3 never had to sit around and wait for an update like Cyberpunk and the second update made the game worse.
Are you thinking of Andromeda? That was a train wreck at launch that never really recovered
If they say the game is for X, Y, and Z, it has to run well on X, Y and Z.
No excuses. If i can't buy a new console, i still have the old one and i'm really waiting for that game, i get a bad surprise. Bad surprise = disappointing. So yes, it deserves to be there.
Maybe read the author's reasoning into why it's in their list? Completely agree with their justification.
The game runs well on PC, PS5, and XboxSX. That doesn't mean it isn't a terrible game that (as the author of this piece said) "Cyberpunk 2077 has the best chance of being updated and fixed."
Running well doesn't mean it isn't a glitch filled, unpolished mess.
Ray Trace Lotion 🧴 only mask the problems on the PC version of Cyberpunk 2077, and it’s not just the bugs! The A.I is outdated especially with the police 👮♀️ 👮♀️ that randomly appears to shoot you! And the NPCs are dumb as rocks with barely any reactions to your actions! The world building sucks compared to GTA 3-5, Watchdogs, and Red Dead 2!!!
So all of a sudden the base consoles are shit and it's not the developer's shit optimisation?
There may be a decent game underneath but all versions have issues. It shouldn't have been released in the state it was in so it absolutely deserves to be on the list
If you are going to release a game, it should work on the consoles it is released on. Everyone should understand that it's not going to run the same on an next gen or high end console as it runs on base, but it should at least be playable, and it is not for many.
F&F Crossroads & PC3 were dumped on gamers by Codemasters knowing they were going to get taken over by Take Two or EA. It was a last ditch attempt to get rid of those steaming piles of dogs mess.
Cyberpunk does not belong in this list. After seeing the many many positive reviews for Tamarin (it has a 72% positive rating on Steam) I also doubt it belongs in a list of disappointing games of the year.
I could understand how it could be disappointing for those on base consoles but it doesn’t make the game itself bad.
Oh it does. It was released in a broken state. After the sky high hype how can it not be anything but a disappointment? Anyone who's happy with the state the game is currently in is lying
Cyberpunk is a bad game folks. No AI and a rushed incomplete story. Graphics are the only thing it has going for it. Difficulty is completely busted as well.
FIFA is dead, its all about Ultimate team now, might as well just change the name to FIFA Ultimate Team
The last good one was FIFA 13, when it was actually fun to play.
don‘t buy, don‘t blog = problem solved.
buying and complaining via blogposts = wanting clickrevenue only
I loved playing FIFA when you could load your won face in the game and be the Pro. It was amazing, they should have made a story (like the journey) with your own Pro. I don't know why the hell they didn't think about that...
Also as long as FUT is earning them money they don't need to innovate. Just small updates are enough, because every year everything resets for FUT-Players...
FUT should be maybe a standalone game, only then I could see FIFA evolve...
They KILLED NFL GAMING!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's been a over a decade since I've played a NFL game I was last in high school. Now I have 2 kids ones in high school.
