In something of a surprise that's not really a surprise, the Xbox 360's price has been technically lowered in Japan. Or, at least, it will be -- effective November 2nd, 2006, a "Core System Release Anniversary Pack" Xbox 360 will be available for just 29,800 yen. This contains the console, all necessary cables, a wireless controller, and two games -- Ninety-Nine Nights and Project Gotham Racing 3. A 20 GB hard drive will be sold for just 9,995 yen extra.
Microsoft’s Xbox Division head honcho Phil Spencer is always quite open to conversations with the fans on social media, and today he went on one of his usual Twitter sprees, talking about quite a few interesting topics.
Sunset Overdrive was so fun, unlike any game I've seen in a while. Felt kinda fresh to see something unique. Hope it sold well, it deserved to, would love to have a sequel, maybe multi-platform this time so our PS brethren could share the love too.
Insomniac didn't release it on PS4 because Sony wanted to own the IP, so they went to Microsoft instead. However, now that the first game is released, Sony can't own the IP anymore, so if they want, they're free to release the sequel on PS4 or even port the first one too.
That's not as decisive on a Sunset Overdrive sequel as I'd like ... sign it up, Phil!
Microtransactions in Tomb Raider really turned me off.. I dont understand why devs shove that BS into everything these days.. First it was DLC here and there and now DLC, season passes, and micro transactions for every damn thing.. Im not getting XB1 this season i guess.. Halo has that BS too so your looking at close to $100+ for a single game with all its content.. Screw that
Only in gaming can you engage in multiple planet-clearing world wars or explosive shootouts where one man somehow takes on hundreds of opponents. There's stiff competition as to which game really has the highest body count, so to make it simpler here we're going to generally avoid anything that's too “big picture” in the death department. Check out the top games with the most ridiculous body counts now!
"Back in 2006 Microsoft Game Studios published a little game that went by the name of Ninety-Nine Nights, a hack-and-slash title of sorts not unlike the Dynasty Warriors series of game, except Ninety-Nine Nights was a Microsoft exclusive." The Games Cabin
Wow, the last game had one million troops! Just think how many this one will have!
The second part gave me wow feeling at the very first level, where there was battlefield, smoke and particles in the air. Looked amazing. And insane QTEs on bosses
What is even more sad is
Takayuki Fujii, best known as the guy who makes everything extreme (and the lead producer of Nintey-Nine Nights II), is leaving Konami.
“It’s been great 20 years of creation,” Fujii said on Twitter. “Thanks for all who supported, loved my titles. Farewell and may the extreeeeemeness be with Konami.”
Fujii did not say where he’ll be going, but he’ll still be extreme, and by the sound of it, he isn’t retiring.
