Does it say anything about the game's length?

sak5005143d ago

I'd say score it same as MGS4 minus the 9 hour cgi, heavly sword, GOWIII, heavy rain, unchartered 1 and 2. So these all are circa 6 hour games.

DelbertGrady5143d ago

Probably 8-10 hours for the single player campaign. Then there's also a full co-op campaign and multiplayer.

Why so defensive dude? (not to say completly fanboyish)

I think you posted on the wrong zone ;)

despair5142d ago

Actually they say the length of just the single player campaign is 5-6 hours(closer to 5 i think) co-op and online will add but i don't know how good they are. Looks great must try the demo first though.

Dont read the top comment on the site, there is a possible major spoiler.

Kingdom Come5143d ago

I've already had the game spoiled for me by some attention seeker on another site. :/

SolidMGSnake5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

Yea I read it accidently, but if it is true..then I saw that one commin a frikken mile away. O well- at least it'll be a fun game and see the story unfold.

Kingdom Come5143d ago

Does anyone know if Lamberts alive in Conviction or not? If its a Spoiler or something PM me please, he's a Legend and I dont want him dying :[ I didnt even shoot him in Double Agent :P

Eiffel5143d ago

Lol I read the spoiler. I've already read the book so I know how it ends. Like it's somehow gonna stop me from enjoying the game.

Day One Purchase Me thinks...
Pretty obvious considering its on Preorder. :P

jjesso19935143d ago

I completed it yesterday reallly amazing game was not expecting it to be so good wish it was a bit longer

Basil-Rathboner5143d ago (Edited 5143d ago )

You may know how it ends as you say that you've read the book and SolidMGSnake says he saw it coming a mile away.

That completely misses the point.

Others have not read the book and most may wish to see the plot unfold without having the narrative deliberately sabotaged for them.

Eiffel i am glad it won't stop you from enjoying the game and nor should it.

But this tit for tat nonsense of people deliberately spoiling games for others is an act unbecoming of a gentleman.

This goes for both Xbox and PS3 people who do it --- "I would hereby hand down a sentence of 15 minutes in a padded cell with a large angry tattooed man sporting a smile, claw hammer and a large erect!0n."

To the morons who disagreed with me above when i kindly took the time to warm TRUE gamers of possible spoilers GFU.

despair5142d ago

Agreed its getting more and more ridiculous mods need to regulate the spoiler content with immediate bans from the forums.

First Heavy rain got slightly spoiled for me then i hear alan wake story is out in full details plot twist and all and now they're doing it with splinter cell. There are many others also I'm sure, it really is stupid and very immature to ruin a game for many just because you can.

Watch Ninja Gaiden II, Fable 2, Fable 3, and Splinter Cell Games Enhanced for Xbox One X in Action

Microsoft presented a new batch of Xbox 360 games that received Xbox One X enhancements via Xbox One backward compatibility, and here you can watch how they run.

Nothing wrong with more games. As someone who just fundamentally hates xbox, I am pretty jelly that xbox gamers get real BC.

Finally ninja gaiden 2 is BC, I've been waiting on this since they announced BC.

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

Yeah i thought ninja gaiden was gonna get remaster because it wasnt announced for backwards compatible til just now tho i would've been up for joy if they announced max payne 3 for backwards compatible today instead

hiawa231850d ago

I am so wanting MP3 on BC and X1X enhanced

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

@hiawa23 i think R* has plans to remaster MP3 at this point

Z5011850d ago

You couldn't play your copy of NG2 before this announcement?

Bane351850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

No it just became backwards compatible today

Movefasta19931850d ago

not everybody still has their 360, that's why

Z5011850d ago

Kept your game, but no console to play it on?
No one sells 360's anymore?

bluebenjamin1850d ago

Ninja Gaiden 2 is the main game I wanted bcthen alone one x enchanced is this game is more fun than bloodborne

Gwiz1850d ago

No contest,souls games are overhyped for difficulty.

bluebenjamin1850d ago

Very overhyped just because of difficulty not because of fun

1850d ago
Movefasta19931850d ago

facts, once you beat a souls game and do ng plus, you have the game downloaded. Once you return to ng1 and 2 you still can get your ass handed to you lol, the regular enemies are a threat, still attacking even when they are on the ground dismembered.

Gaming4Life19811849d ago

Agreed dark souls, bloodborne, and sekiro are overhyped games and dont compare to ninja gaiden 1 & , ninja gaiden 3 sucks.

What does BB have to do with NG2?
Why not insert Contra Shattered Soldier while you're at it.

bluebenjamin1850d ago

Ninja gaiden was once considered one of the hardest games ninja gaiden 2 has rpg elements so does bloodborn they have similar combat but ninja gaiden 2 just looks better doing it plus its fast pace and flashy combos removing limbs of foes remember 360 put more enemies on screen than ps3 on this game 360 had more dismemberment of limbs than the ps3 vs.360 had a better gpu but ps3 still to this day has an awesome cpu the ps3 had the prettiest ninja gaiden because of native 720 p while 360 pushed 640p now the one X has both higher rez and 360 style dismemberment But Ok for you contra ps2 version and nes

Movefasta19931850d ago

I do think ninja gaiden 1 and 2 are better than souls games, but they aren't even comparable

Z5011850d ago

Again. Why'd you pick BB?
Ninja Gaiden has ninja dog mode = easy
NG2 has a jump and block button
BB has none of those.

You could've picked a Devil May Cry or Bayonetta game. They're more similar to NG2 than BB.

What does PS3 have to do with this announcement? Your insecurities are showing.

Gaming4Life19811849d ago

I think they are being compared because of difficulty but I dont even think that is comparable imo. Ninja gaiden games are better though that's just facts.

Hungryalpaca1849d ago

And Forza is Better than MARIO Kart!!!!!

See how stupid that sounds?

bluebenjamin1849d ago

No Mario Kart is the best racer ever almost anyone can play

timotim1850d ago (Edited 1850d ago )

Amazing news! NG2!?!? Three Splinter Cell games!!! Fable 2&3 (the first is already enhanced)!!! This is what separates Microsoft's version of BC from others...its that they enhance both the performance and visual quality of these titles to keep them current in a lot of cases, instead of playing them exactly how they played and performed back in the day. Whats even better...I don't need to do ANYTHING but download the new patch...amazing.👏

Keep it coming Xbox!

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for July 2018 any good?

Neil writes: "Every single month we hear the same old thing about the Xbox Games With Gold titles. "We don't want that rubbish - we want decent games, we want AAA blockbusters, we want something different". Well, the free Xbox 360 and Xbox One titles being given away during the month of July pretty much tick those boxes. What's the chances there will still be complaints?"

Tom clancy and virtua fighter are great death sqaured is pretty cool idk about assualt

lxeasy2139d ago

Splinter cell conviction is great, vf 5 is fun. Haven't played the other two so I'm excited to try them out.

ApexWolf222139d ago

Great month for 360 titles, X1 titles remind me of early days when all they gave away were indies, I hope they dont start doing that again.

AG1002139d ago

at least you can play the 360 games on xb1 too lol

Goldby2139d ago

Now that there's gamepass, expect bugger AAA to have priority in that, more money for both the dev and Ms more likely

yomfweeee2139d ago

I though Plus was lackluster this month. Gold is way worse.

BQ322139d ago

Vf5 fs is the best fighting game of all time abd backwards compatible, so it is a huge win in my book.

annoyedgamer2139d ago

No these are pretty awful. Virtua Fighter is great and so is Splinter Cell but those are 360 titles.

lxeasy2139d ago

so what if there 360 titles it's still awesome

A new Tom Clancy adventure can be enjoyed on Xbox One due to Back Compat – Is it worth the return?

Carlos writes: "Xbox Backwards Compatibility has shown a strong start to 2018 with a number of top titles being made available to play on Xbox One, but whilst this week doesn’t bring quite as many new arrivals as the past few weeks, there is still one addition for us to get stuck into once more... and it’s one that’s sure to prove a popular addition."

TheRealHeisenberg2279d ago

No confusion at all. Just another game added to the list if anyone gets nostalgic.

Vectrexer2279d ago

C-H-E-F2279d ago
