RDR2 in the top ten is impressive. Bethesda games will drop off the list in a month.

thesoftware73012d ago

Lol, you hate Bethesda so much now because they are owned by MS, not realizing that those games are all on PS, that most likely the reason they are back on the list, which by the way is excellent for 3 single players games that is really old...so your salt means nothing, we don't expect them to be on the list for months, shit we didn't expect to be on the list now given how old they are.

Bravo to a successful franchise and now T.V show.

anast12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

I'm not lying. The longevity of RDR2 is impressive. The Bethesda games will drop in a month.

KyRo12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

@Thesoftware. No people people have disliked Bethesda way before MS. Ever since Fallout 3 they've released buggy, broken, graphically dates, poorly animated, terribly voice acted games. The difference is the scale of the game when FO3 dropped was still fresh. In 2024, games standards have risen and people won't give Bethesda a free pass whilst the rest of the industry has got betterans in many ways surpassed them.

dumahim12d ago

I was tempted to fire up FO4, but then remembered the settlements, and raider attacks and crap like that. Then I found out about FO London coming out soon, then that got delayed.

ZeekQuattro13d ago

I've been playing FO3 and NV and will no doubt start up 4 again when the current gen patch drops.

neutralgamer199213d ago

There was a rumor that Bethesda maybe doing FO3/NV remastered collection. I hope they do and bring some quality of life improvements. Both games are awesome but could be better if done right given the remastered treatment

ZeekQuattro12d ago

I don't mind the backwards compatible versions on the Microsoft store honestly.Both 3 and NV have quick load times and FPS boost. I originally played FO3 on the PS3 so it felt like a different game to me with those changes alone. My FO3: GOTY expierence on the PS3 was bad enough I didn't even bother with NV until I got a XBO.

I wouldn't say no to a remaster however. Feels like now would be the time to announce it what with a hit show boosting awareness for the IP. We'll see what happens.

Duke1913d ago

Loving the show and it 100% has me itching to boot up a FO again. The only question is whether to replay 3, NV or 4

Michiel198913d ago

The show is really good, it's everything I expect from a video game adaptation. The main audience being the fans of the franchise, new viewers not being the target audience was not what I was expecting.

Demetrius12d ago (Edited 12d ago )

They been doing good on game love action series nowadays that's wassup I'm glad they managed to catch the fallout vibe in the show

They aren't going to give more. We are talking about a company that has rereleased an 13 year old game at least 5 times.

Fallout 4 from PlayStation Plus Essentials Can Be Upgraded for Free

After fears the free upgrade would be limited to the PlayStation Plus Extra/Premium version, and Bethesda Softworks removing mention of the upgrade being free for all, it turns out PlayStation Plus Essential owners can get the upgrade for free. - IS

Super happy to see this was eventually resolved for PlayStation Plus Essential owners as well!

darthv722d ago

Bethesda addressed this the other day. There was no fear... just impatience.

P_Bomb2d ago

Expecting something to work at launch is impatience?

TheJacksofAll1d 18h ago

No that’s called entitlement

admiralvic2d ago

They said they were looking into it, followed by only giving news about Extra, and then editing out the “free for all” message. You don’t think all of this wouldn’t give some reasonable doubt?

anast2d ago

More than a few people bought a copy of this game during this time. So, it worked out as planned.

How Bethesda Fumbled Fallout 4's Sudden Popularity With The Next-Gen Update

Fahad from eXputer: "Bethesda rolled out a messy next-gen Fallout 4, ruining the experience of many new and returning players after the TV show's success."

RaidenBlack3d ago

Fallout London would've been the perfect return gift for Fallout fans after watching the Prime show

EazyC2d ago

Bethesda could have kicked them some cash about a year ago and collaborated to make it a full scale thing

RaidenBlack2d ago

or atleast given them a heads up regarding the current-gen update

LordoftheCritics2d ago

My perfectly modded game just died.

Abear212d ago

Yeah, they had so much time and that show budget, holy shit, you’re telling me they had no time to put together a game with how long they knew about the show coming?

Blame Starfield.

Profchaos2d ago

I think they chose right 4 was the most accessible fallout to date however I really wish 3/NV got some switch love or psvr2 ports

MrDead2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

They didn't fix the major bugs that have been plaguing the game since release and they broke mods and every modded save. Good work.

phoenixwing2d ago

They've been ruining their mod scene for elder scrolls skyrim as well. If they're barely increasing the graphics then it's a complete waste since molders already had done better.

raWfodog2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I don't use the mods, but why do they even offer mod support if they constantly break them with their updates?

anast2d ago

Modders fix their game for free. They use that information to do an update of their own and paly it off like it was all them.

on_line_forever2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I like the show BUT i can't play the game

Bethesda = poor quality games

Abear212d ago

Skyrim exists so you are wrong, although, that took being re-released 6 times on newer hardware and countless patches, but now it’s a good game.

Crows902d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Skyrim isn't much better. Morrowind was their A game...but they abandoned that direction in favor of the low quality game but accessible offering in Skyrim.

anast2d ago

Billions is spent on cheap plastic trinkets each year all of which are poor quality. In fact, it is a fact that poor quality sells more that good quality. Skyrim existing supports this.
