Thank you Columbo for submitting a great interview

mastiffchild5384d ago

The reasons for the delays are still clear as mud though, aren't they?

I'm really concerned that everything bar the PS3 game has been dated as well-if one isn't ready they should hold them all O at least tell us when the other will be out. The vagueness over the PS version makes me think it'll end up slipping way beyond the PC/360 games dates. As it's their first game on the platform I guess difficulties were probable but after all their talk of how easy it was for them to adjust I'd expected them to hit their dates or at worst manage simultaneous releases across their platforms.

In this industry when people won't give a game a release date it usually ends up being a pretty big delay and I worry that PS3 only gamers might not even see this before Xmas. If they knew how long it would be then why no release date? And a vague "November" can easily change to January sometime, can't it?

Hope I'm wrong and their figures are accurate but games seem to be arriving later and later these days.

Columbo5384d ago (Edited 5384d ago )

No problem. It was a really good interview.

I really hope they follow through with their claim of 2 years worth of DLC support. I was disappointed by their lack of Mass Effect DLC, but I have a feeling they'll be supporting their products better now after seeing the community's response to their over-promise with ME.

I hate the fact that it's being delayed. Now I do like the idea of the additional bonus content since there is the delay. Not to mention the additional bonus content if you pre-ordered it from GameStop.

when will we see the console version gameplay.....

Panzerkanzler5383d ago

I'm...pumped! This game had better be awesome because I'm counting on it.

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion498d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad499d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90499d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183499d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90498d ago (Edited 498d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde498d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90498d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde498d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator498d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13498d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183498d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.
