Really? A new game being released makes it into the top ten on Amazon and that's news worthy? Since when?

awiseman4821d ago

It isnt news, however it was BIG news when KZ was up there least week...

Kon4821d ago

Have a bubble awiseman.

VenomProject4821d ago

None of these "OMG HIGH SALEZ!!1" articles are newsworthy in my opinion.

months in the future:

"Uncharted 3 and Gears of Wars 3 are in the top 10 at Amazon!"

Really?! GTFO! That's so unpredictable!

Vherostar4821d ago

The fact is this is the first AAA shooter on 360 not to get to number 1 on launch just shows how bad it is even with the gears 3 BETA it still cannot sell.. So this is what they come up with its still in top 10 in Amazon? LOL.. Don't get me wrong its half decent because its differn't than most other shooters but its not in the same league as the other big boys.

YourCall4821d ago (Edited 4821d ago )

Well dude, the PS3 version isn't even in the top 100 on amazon. In addition, KZ3 is suppose to be the biggest games this year and hell in less than a week it had already fallen to out of the top 5. I think the fact the KZ3 is NOT at number 1 is more news worthy.

IRetrouk4820d ago (Edited 4820d ago )

i dont think any of it is news worthy, if you like a game buy it, if not dont, it isnt always about what console they are on. killzone is good, bullitstorm is good, we all good.

Hint: Pokemon conquers all.

360FTW24820d ago

@IRetrouk - yet you chose not comment at all on Vherostar's rabid comment.

Yeah dude, nice try.

IRetrouk4820d ago

i think i covered all bases by saying it dosnt matter what console the game is on as long as it is good it should be played, i like how you called me out though, what is it? my avatar? im a dragon ball z fan and thought it looked cool, plus vherostar wasnt realy having a go at the 360, it was the game he was dissing, get over yourself.

Finished it last night then immediately started a new game,I'm having a blast with it.

Kon4821d ago (Edited 4821d ago )

Me too, trying the very hard difficult now!

B1663r4821d ago

I wish I had 60 dollars to blow on a new game. Instead over the weekend, I got, Left4Dead (why did I ever sell that one?) Mirrors Edge (wtf why was sequel canceled?) Lost Odyssey (havent poped it in the drive yet) and something called operation darkness all for less than $60...

Will a bunch of you hurry up and sell your copy and crash the price so I can pick it up for $10???

Excalibur4820d ago

@ B1663r Not gonna happen any time soon as we are holding on to them for the Gears 3 Beta :)

Urrakia344821d ago

Hmmmmm I wonder why it's selling more on 360? cough*Gears Beta*cough

LoneWanderer094820d ago

If a game is New is going to be in the top, until it gets old

If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.

banger8815d ago

If it was more online-only crap then good riddance.

jjb198115d ago

Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

thorstein15d ago

I liked Outriders but I could see where the artistic vision was compromised. The way the industry is now, it wouldn't surprise me that upper management would scrap something that didn't pull in money via gaas, mts, or other means.

Duty Calls - Epic Games' Forgotten Call of Duty Parody

Back in 2011, Epic Games and People Can Fly launched a Call of Duty parody - Duty Calls - that has been lost to the annals of history.

closed_account329d ago

"Duty Calls: The Calm Before the Storm" sounds more like a massive case of the sh**s. 😂

I saw the parody mention, and half expected the ability to drop a deuce on your opponent... I left disappointed.

Never too much Taco Tuesday!! Now if only we could just achieve eternal Taco Tuesdays without the inevitable Wipe-It Wednesdays!!! 😂😂

Bulletstorm - A Cult Classic Worthy of Revival?

Bulletstorm will soon receive a VR remake, but is it worth revisiting? Take a look back at the original 2011 release.

IMissJimRyan337d ago

Absolutely. I remember when the game came out on ps360, I thought: "wow, another shooter" and in the 7th gen that wasn't an unfair reaction.

But when the game was re-release on ps4 I took my time an played it (it was on playstation plus at the time) because, ironically, I missed a shooter in that console. And boy, what a fun game! They made a game to be played and not to be watched. It was a fresh air in the genre that deserved better.

So yes. Maybe it find its audience this time.

SullysCigar336d ago

It's an awesome game. The only exception (for my taste) is the script writing, which is OTT, but I guess that's what they were going for. It does at least match the OTT action and gore. I thought it was great overall and actually being in this game is going to be bonkers!

IMissJimRyan336d ago

Yeah, I agree that storywise it's not an Oscar nominee, but it's like a porn movie in game format.

Abnor_Mal336d ago (Edited 336d ago )

Agree with the over the top script, and felt at the time that was the only thing that people were hyped about, the language and not game play.

But in vr this game is going to be great. It has everything that would make a great vr game. Lots of bombastic action, gunplay, blood, and that leash.

Looking at the gameplay now it seems that the game was ahead of it’s time and was perfect for vr before vr wasn’t even off the ground.

Venoxn4g336d ago

I loved the game back in the day and will love in VR even more!

Yui_Suzumiya336d ago (Edited 336d ago )

I got it on PS3 at launch and am still waiting for the long rumored sequel to finally be announced. Currently have it on Switch and wish a physical version of that would be released. Absolutely love it.

FinalFantasyFanatic336d ago

I actually feel like this game gets revived all the time, not that I hate the game, I actually quite like it, it's just constantly available, unfortunately I'm not a fan of VR so I'll be skipping this version.
