Weekly Recap Aug. 29th: GTA IV Airplanes, Bungie Loves Halo, 360 Elite Price Cut

Cinemablend Games writes:

"So this has been a fairly interesting week of news here at Blend Games. We learned that Rockstar is bringing back skydiving in the new GTA IV DLC, The Ballad of Gay Tony, which begs the question if airplanes will accompany the skydiving? There were talks from Bungie that Halo: Reach may not be the last Halo game they make simply because they love Halo so much, and Microsoft further cements the price-cuts for the Xbox 360 into the market place with the 120 GB and 60 GB models. These stories and more at the Blend Games Weekly Recap.

We also have some fresh new trailers up for viewing, including the new Shaun White: World Stage debut trailer, an awesome cinematic for Kingdom Under Fire 2 and the Dawn of War II: Last Stand trailer that will be sure to keep the fanboys rooting into next week."

Not surprised its the only idea they can come up with and since they have the minds of 13 year olds working for them and young childish teenagers using the 360 it suits them right down to the ground ;-D !!!!

"airplanes will accompany the skydiving?"

No, it'll just be a heli

Blacktric5360d ago

There is a new chopper at the 3rd screenshot which I think fires rockets. And that's a big improvement over that sh*tty Annihilator.

Mr Bean Laden5360d ago

airplanes have to be DLC because it couldn't fit on the small DVD 9 of the flopbox

bungie loves Halo because they have no minds and can't make any new IPs because they can only think of power rangers

and the flopbox elite with jasper/falcon chip is also 54.2% failure rate

Wolfenstein: Killin’ Nazis Never Gets Old

Sometimes, you want a relatable villain who makes you question your own morality. Other times, you want Frau Engel.

It got old tbh. Machine needed a break from the IP. Indie is a good reprieve.

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.

robtion488d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad488d ago

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

Crows90488d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183488d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90488d ago (Edited 488d 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.

DarXyde488d 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

Crows90488d 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.

DarXyde487d 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.

TheColbertinator488d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13488d 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

shinoff2183488d 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.
