A brand new Mario Party title is currently in development for Nintendo hardware, based on the latest report.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.
I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing
1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.
It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!
I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.
Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.
Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.
Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:
- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2
I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.
Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.
I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.
I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.
But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5
Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.
There are many worlds out there brimming with wondrous creatures ready to help you on your adventure beyond Pokemon.
Temtem is actually really good as a single player experience or as a co-op game. Played the shit out of it when it released
Fanboys. But thats in every stage of entertainment.
Why must you bash another system? I like my ps2, as well as my ps3/3DS. Just cuz that psp claw cramps my big hands, should I bash the PSP? Absolutely. ...if you're a fanboy.
I have no loyalt to any company except the one that pays ME. Sony ain't payin my bills. Nintendo's not cleaing my bathroom. And microsoft ain't paying for my internet. Heh, same goes for every sports team under the sun. No million dollar contract athlete/actor is gonna take up "my" time and money, unless they're paying ME.
What's the list? I'm on my phone and can't see the article. :(
DLC.
Really. It annoys me. If it wasn't for DLC this crap would be in my game to begin with, and it usually is. I'm not paying more to play something already on my disk. I refuse to buy ANY DLC. If the game isn't worth 60 bucks without it, I don't want it.
My little rant.
My most annoying thing in gaming isn't the games fault but the players and it happened this morning. I'm just sittin there playin plunder in Uncharted 3 and I come in the middle of the match. So i'm doing everything in my power to win. I'm shielding the guy with the treasure so I give him extra time before we both die and everything. We start to make a comeback. Then the other team had the treasure over at their side and I get a no cigar medal along with killing two others on their team. So we start to bring the treasure back to our side but the guy didn't get very far and he died. So we killed the rest of them. The the guy on my team tries to pick up the treasure and put in the enemies box. So I shoot at my teammate to try to tell him to go the otherway and at the same time their team respawned and killed us both. Then they scored. Sad thing is is that the guy on my team who tried to put the treasure in their box was the guy who scored for our team earlier. Later that match he tried doing that same time. I just had to rant somewhere about that.
Mm mixed about cell phones , it's a pretty great features in a few jrpgs and games like Catherine . It's more annoying whena game feature some ingame internet you can't really explore .
I used to prefer seeing the ennemy on screen over those random encounters . But too many jrpgs showed an utter lack of ennemies spawning , with often the need to back track and change zones to repop . Now that i find annoying .
I feel otherwise about weapons , kinda related to your last point , i dont like gun battles dragging on forever . Precise aiming (something truly rare now in current popular fps) , swift movement (not rare but ruined with auto aiming fps) a good weapon and boom .
And quite frankly in most case i dont like QTE . I wanna kill a boss myself , not fight it 5 mins , then the games takes the relay and tell you to spam a button ...
And indeed if your going to make a cuscene interractive , at least give me multiple choices and options .
