You Know It's The Summer Video Game Drought When...

Remember when Jeff Foxworthy actually did stand-up comedy? You know, before he decided to host a game show with annoying, prepubescent, future Einstein little kids? Remember his “You might be a redneck if…” jokes? Yeah, those were good.

On a completely unrelated note, the summer time is infamous for its lack of games. So let’s do some basic math and add these two ideas together.

Here we go. You know it’s the summer game drought when…

Especially when I'm trying to save money!

Also I've made a new PSN account so I'm replaying my existing games for trophies.

There are plenty of good games to keep me busy over the summer. Lego Potter, Singularity (excellent, btw I finished it last week), I just picked up a cheap copy of Prototype (great game so far), plus there are other games I missed like Mass Effect 2 (bought it but haven't started yet).

This is the worst summer drought since this console gen started. And studios are wondering why sales are declining.

Gun_Senshi5024d ago (Edited 5024d ago )

Its always like this before there were consoles. I'm PC gamer mainly.

And no, I will not buy Starcraft 2. I do not support a company that keeps milking after original members left (thus fans like me always get disappointed) and higher price tags for unfinished games.
60 EUR standard edition 100 EUR collection edition. FUCK NO.

Montrealien5024d ago (Edited 5024d ago )

I have no idea what you just said there. how exactly do you milk a game franchise that has a total of two releases game releases in the last 13 years? And if you think I will hop on the fact that confirming 2 Expanssions for it already as milking, and make Wing of Liberty an unfinished game you are wrong. I have 5 hours put into it, and trust me it is far from over and I already want to play it again from the start since I did a few bad choices. And I have not even touched the Multiplayer yet...

And Chris Metsen was the lead Designer of Starcraft 1, last I hear, he is still with Blizzzard and the new lead Designer for SC2, Dustin Browder, is no joke when it comes to RTS design. You have so much unfounded hate it is retarded.

your loss I guess.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

banger887d ago

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

FPS_D3TH6d ago

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

PrecursorOrb6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

The_Hooligan6d ago

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

Game Rant Writes "It's been over a decade since fans have seen the Medal of Honor franchise on consoles in any capacity, and it's about time EA brought it back."

Medal of Honor 2010 was a good start for a modern reboot. The campaign was fantastic. Multiplayer wasn't great but that's DICE's fault. I'd love if they went back to that game and gave it a proper sequel.

SlothLordPootus503d ago

I actually really liked the multiplayer in MoH 2010. Battlefield gunplay on small maps. I would love to see a Rising sun remake, the opening scene would be amazing to see.

SonyStyled503d ago

I enjoyed the multiplayer of MoH 2010. It felt like battlefield 3 in a way. The multiplayer in Warfighter was also pretty good but the campaigns single player story was not appealing with the whole family cutscene thing. Gameplay was fun though. MoH to me is the PS1/2 titles and I don’t expect to see a WW2 MoH after the last Call of Duty’s

Levii_92503d ago

PS1 MOH 1999 and 2000 (Underground) and Allied Assault PC is my childhood.. it's still soo good and it holds up. Not to mention Michael Giacchino's soundtrack is one of the best video game soundtracks ever made. Even if you weren't born in early to mid 90's go listen to the main theme of Allied Assault and you will be overloaded from nostalgia.

I miss this franchise a lot.

Iceball2000503d ago

I’ve always thought that MOH and Battlefield should be separate…

Have MOH as the full fledged single player with an amazing store and whatnot. And a basic multiplayer just to have multiplayer. Sorta like how the MOH reboot was.

And then have BF as the full fledged multiplayer with all effort put into that and ditch the single player. Maybe add Commander back in.

Only in a perfect world.

HeliosHex503d ago (Edited 503d ago )

Oh man medal of honor on pc was awesome back in the day. Multi-player was fun. Joined my first clan on medal of honor. Definitely deserves a comeback. But needs to be on the same level or surpass COD. Since it came out before that ip in 1999 to avoid embarrassment.

FGHFGHFGH502d ago

The guys who did Allied assault are the one who created call of duty. They're back at EA, Vince something

MadLad503d ago

I'll be the weird guy in the room and say I actually loved Warfighter. I thought the squad mechanics made it stand out a bit and thought the shooting felt good. Put a lot of time into the multiplayer.
