Hideki Kamiya, creator of Capcom's Devil May Cry franchise, has spoke of his lofty ambitions to "make a game that exceeds God of War's sequel".
Speaking with US publication Electronic Gaming Monthly, Kamiya commented, "Out of all those action titles, there's one game that I am paying really close attention to, that I think is a rival game, a good game, which is called God of War 3."
"So there's like a wall for your imagination or ideas, and when you're actually creating something, you don't even see the wall. But with GOW, I felt like I saw beyond the wall," he said.
"I felt like they created the game in a very good way which managed to bring in the users, they gave you a huge impactful feeling right in the beginning, and just drew you into the game. So I'm very impressed that they made the game like that."
Kamiya, who is currently working on the action title Bayonetta, was decidedly less enthusiastic in regards to Tecmo's Ninja Gaiden series.
"I've never played Ninja Gaiden, and to be honest, I'm not that interested," he said, explaining, "the quality that gets you interested in something is that you feel something for them" and "Ninja Gaiden just didn't have that power".
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
Gary Green said: Namco Bandai heard the call of many fans asking for the PlayStation release of Tales of Graces which was originally released seemingly exclusively for the Wii back in 2009. If you’re acquainted with the Tales series then Graces f won’t be something entirely new to you, yet if you’re a newcomer then you’ll find a plethora of gameplay mechanics and nuances that distinguish this series from other JRPGs. While the game finds itself following the traditional archetype of JRPGs, such as a somewhat clichéd story, Graces has something to offer to both veterans and newcomers alike.
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."
You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is
That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.
Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion
Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*
*As per Wikipedia
Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
because gow is the pinnicle of action games thus with the cell and bluray gow3 is a frightening prospect for any rival developer to aspire to
Well you couldn't pick a much better title to take your inspiration and set your goals against. Now we just need to see some GoW3 footage to see how Sony have set the bar this time around.
Best of luck... you'll need it.
yh right... :/
HAHAH....i lol so much!!!!!
I would love to see a game match or exceed the complete package that you get with the GoW series. Still gotta give NG the edge in combat up to this point.
