Might pick up blur, is it any good?

NJShadow5019d ago (Edited 5019d ago )

I know the multiplayer demo was absolutely insane and incredibly fun, not sure about the single player though. Although for $20, it would be worth it JUST for the multiplayer, lol. But yeah, it's a solid game with a heavy fun factor.

zeeshan5019d ago

Please correct me if I am wrong but most of the titles in the news title are from Activision right? Cuz I will NOT give my money to Activision. Haven't done that since COD4 and won't be doing that for a very long time!

chrisnick5019d ago

If you can deal with the rubber band AI.

BakedGoods5019d ago (Edited 5019d ago )

Please tell me this is coming to Canada. What an insane deal--grab Blur and use the $40 card to get RDR + Transformers @ 50% off.

I might finally give DJ Hero a shot.

NJShadow5019d ago (Edited 5019d ago )

Dude, you WILL NOT regret it, that game is SO much fun. My neck was actually hurting afterwords from bobbing it back and forth the entire time!

chrisnick5019d ago (Edited 5019d ago )

blur is ok dunno about dj hero though.

ViperX25019d ago

I'm tempted to get Blur, but I don't know what I would use a $40 Toys'R'Us gift card for besides another game, but there isn't any other games in that add or that have came out lately that I really want.

Wish Amazon had this deal. There's always something from Amazon that I can use.

I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.

EvertonFC70d ago (Edited 70d ago )

Fantastic game,.so underated

Cacabunga70d ago

Yes great game spec ops! Since the time we’ve been asking sony to make one:/

Auto Modelista.. a PS2 capcom racer!! A blast to play and great graphics!
Maximo!
Rival Schools!

LordoftheCritics69d ago

Spec Ops: The Line was super dark.

Incredible story.

SheenuTheLegend69d ago

all the games in the above list are bang on. this is the only reason we need backwards compatibility and physical presense of games for the upcoming future, no matter what.

Yi-Long70d ago

Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.

melons70d ago

yes! incredible rain effects; so good to drive along in rain with your Spotify playlist blaring

Skuletor70d ago

I really wanted a MotorStorm using the same engine, Driveclub is easily one of the best looking games on PS4 and I'm surprised they didn't even give it a PS4 Pro patch.

ravens5269d ago

Yes indeed. May just install it on my PS5. You know, physical copy and all.

monkey60269d ago

I adored Driveclub and the Bike expansion. I also loved Motorstorm. Evolution shutting down was a crime

Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.

Skuletor70d ago

I have quite a few of these. Timed licenses suck.

Terry_B69d ago (Edited 69d ago )

wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.

Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.

Six Activision Games I’d Like to See Revived Under Microsoft

As the world reels from the shockwaves of the seismic news that Microsoft is acquiring the proverbial swamp of the video-game landscape, Activision Blizzard King, it only seems natural that our minds should now shift towards what the fallout will be for presumably years if not decades to come.

MadLad831d ago

Another Prototype would be awesome.

As for Singularity, I don't necessarily need a sequel, I just want to see Raven be able to flex their creative muscle again; not just be relegated to assisting with CoD. A lot of the old guard is still with the company.

That's part of what I'm hoping to see come from this acquisition. Revive teams like Vicarious Visions and Ravem to actually allow them to work on their own new projects again.

Crows90830d ago

As great as that would be the deal wont finalize until end of fiscal year 2023. Until after that date MS wont really have a say as to where resources will be spent. So we wont realistically see anything until perhaps 2026 or later.

LWOGaming829d ago

I think that’s a point that so many people are missing. Things will not change this year or next year at all. Maybe some changes might be apparent in 2024 but 2025/2026 is a good estimate of when things will really start happening. And I don’t think we will see as big a set of changes as some are suggesting.

TallDarknWavy830d ago

Those teams having not worked on anything, the employees find jobs at other companies, they don't just remain unemployed till someone at the publisher decides to revive the team, they need to eat lol

That said, this list of games makes me unexcited for anything outside of CoD that Activision has to offer. All games are in stale genres, like Guitar Hero, Simpsons Hit and Run, these are long surpassed genres that are going to be difficult to revive.

gamer7804830d ago

I want to see new IPs. Not a bunch of forced renovations of old franchises.

Gamer75830d ago

Why not a combination of both

gamer7804830d ago

@gamer75 if it is a combination it has to have my seal of approval. Such as a new Warcraft game or a new Warcraft mmo, or an action game based off the night elves orcs and humans if it’s a new IP. I’ll let you know after I talk with Microsoft

King_Noctis830d ago

Man I’ve been waiting for Protoype since the last one. Protoype could seriously be MS’ answer to Infamous (freaking loved that game as well, hope Sony make a new one soon).

porkChop830d ago

I'd love to see Raven take another crack at Heretic and Hexen.

MadLad830d ago

That's one I see being tossed around a lot to bring back, even if not from Raven themselves.

Put so many hours into those games over the years.

I'd like to see Activision get the Transformers license again and continue the War and Fall of Cybertron games. the movie games were crap and the game that combined both movie and Fall and War of Cybertron sucked a new Prototype would also be good as well.

jaymacx830d ago

You deserve a 1000 likes haha 😂. It’s a shame High Moon didn’t get to continue making Transformers. If they got a decent budget i think most of us TF fans would be excited.

wolf581829d ago (Edited 829d ago )

Ms bought Activision and everybody dancing for what? For cod? Ms want to atleast earn some money Back from those 70 billion dollars.... The only thing they count on is more gamepass subscribers via Activision cod, diablo and over watch 2 1st Day free at gamepass. If they decide to make them exclusive to xbox they Will lose profit from ps4 and 5 sales. As For a New ip or an existing ip like over watch 3,diablo 5 or anything else like a New transformers Dont you think that developers need at least 3 years to Do something decent?
Anyway my opinion is that ms want to make videogaming Just a subscription a la netflix and that ps5 will beat xboxsx in sales like ps4 beat xbox and xbox one x..... All the money ms spending It Will defentily make more gamepass subscribers as for games we all must wait at least 3 more years... And thats why ps5 will get ahead in sales they have more AAA in the pipeline already plus lets see their answer for gamepass... P. S i Dont support subscriptions from neither company and i didnt buy switch plus for n64. If they give me the option to buy n64 games then yes i Will buy them but i am not paying for a rental.

EVERY Blur Game Ever

Whilst it’s rather disappointing that there are no new Blur games on the way, we can still look back at the series and reminisce.

there was more than one? man i must have really checked out after the first one.... or my lack of interest is showing. that game was..... not great.

Skuletor1452d ago

"there was more than one?" This is exactly what I just thought too. I just remember the one on PS360 and PC. The game was fun but I didn't play it much tbh

IRetrouk1452d ago

Wanted to love this game so much, but just couldn't, it was the cars handling more than anything else, why they couldn't have kept or remade the pgr handling model is anyone's guess.

JonTheGod1452d ago

2 mobile variants and a cancelled sequel do not a franchise make.

Gunstar751452d ago

Blur was a great game. Such a shame Bizaree Creations went bust.

Azraeia1452d ago

Tbf didn't know there was more than one. But looking at the other games in this list no wonder the series died after the first major title. Racing is an awkward series to compete in imo. You can't really go down the simulation route cause games like Forza have got that covered and if you want arcade smash up style racing then just play the old NFS or Burnout.
