Role-playing games (RPGs) are some of the most loved games released by video game developers, with some series stretching across decades and creating lifelong fans. Kyle Glatz, RPG enthusiast, weighs in on which console he thinks is the ultimate RPG machine.
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.
Hotly anticipated Celestoidvania, Lucid announces Kickstarter Demo release date. Exciting news for anyone backing the game.
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
Pokemon SnS? How bout you remove that blemish from the list and add Witcher 3 since it is nowhere else on the list and is playable on Switch.
I'd have to say PS1 based on personal preferences for RPGs and also because Legend of Dragoon is my all time favourite game that I'll never stop playing. PS1 had too many great classics that I still own and play to this day more than any other console I've owned. The nostalgia factor for PS1 RPGs is immense every time I play. I get so sucked into the stories I played over and over as a kid. PS2 comes in at a close second for me.
The 3 great rpg consoles were: Snes, PSX and PS2.
Golden age of jrpg for me was on psx.
Xbox obviously going forward. I'd be my choice for all-time too. All the back catalog games they have, most in GamePass, and they own pretty much all the major western RPG studios, so all new ones will be exclusive to the Xbox Platform and launching in GamePass. (I'm excluding PC in my answer since the article says console)
PS3 for Mass Effect 3, Fallout 3, Dragon Age 2, Dead Island and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
