Microsoft can win the PC crowd by handling some of the older Xbox exclusives to PC. Halo is of course the hot contender though we could all use some more Gears of War into our lives... Fable is already going multiplatform so it would be interesting to see what they come up with.
It is a tad tricky of course, juggling Xbox and PC like that but if they adopt a tactic that makes both of the crowds happy they can score big time.
How are the visuals disappointing? I find the new color palette and draw distance quite spectacular. It also looks as gritty as Fallout 3 which is great (it was the thing that made the game's distinct in the first place).
Well, the whole world WAS affected by the nuclear war. The charm of the Fallout series is the 1930's style of music, design and overall atmosphere. However, that doesn't mean we can't go beyond and explore the other part so the world who were affected, though I doubt it will have the same "feeling" as the original titles set on US soil.
Then again, the problem with this is that we already have games that have managed that. Case in point - the Metro game...
Talk about being hyped already. After Fallout: New Vegas and the craziness that is Skyrim (even after 4 years) it is easy to start imagining what Bethesda has in store for a fully fledged sequel.
Gotta admit, the game is pretty kick ass. A true spiritual successor of the Souls series without that old baggage bullshit some series tend to drag with themselves (*cough* Assassin's Creed, *cough) :D
The Witcher 3 is very close though and with the arrival of Batman: Arkham Knight things are sure to get heated before the year is done (this is all for the better of course, when there are great games that battle for our attention, we the players always gain).
Yeah but Nemesis was only hint at before RE3. And also, he could show up at any given moment in the game which made the atmosphere that more frantic. I doubt this can be achieved with the xenomorph in Alien but here's hoping that it will.
The game looks amazing. Period.
With that being said though, I honestly think this can never be scary. Why? The thing about horror is being in a position where the great variable is unknown - what hunts you. Generally, people are terrified of the unknown and that can apply to many things, not just horror movies and games. We all know jump scares can only work so much so we need excellent atmosphere to keep us on edge and a monster(s).
Here Alien: Isolation is...
People putting Ground Zeroes on a "best games" list... /sigh
I bet I will get a ton of flak for this but I actually liked the first Resident Evil movie. The fact that I hadn't played any Resident Evil games up to that point kinda contributed to the enjoyment. Later on I did play RE2 and RE4 and kinda stopped thinking there was any connection between the games and the movies. Sure there are names that overlap and the theme is zombies but come on...
Hold your horses. I can admit the demo preview was a tad bland but that doesn't mean it can't win you over once you get the whole picture.
Resident Evil 4 wasn't by any definition, scary. It had its moments, sure (like those, things in the freezer) and the atmosphere itself was very creepy at times, especially the loneliness factor. However, it was far removed the "survival horror" and The Evil within seems to be following that formula, at least to a de...
Since when are we basing our opinions for a game on the quality of graphics? Let's see how the game plays, what it has in store in terms of story, locations, pacing, open world set pieces, etc... Why condemn it just because they decided to "tone down" the graphics for the consoles.
MGS fanboys will be all over this. No matter if it lasts them 2 hours, they will buy it. It is the case with sheep. Simply follow the herd, even if it means chugging up $30 for a fucking demo.
I don't give a damn if the gameplay and missions are the second coming of Jesus - this is a cheap tactic that intends to test the stupidity of gamers and whether they will buy anything just because it has their favorite hero in it. Seriously, use your brains for once people. If you...
People need to realize that this is a test - a test to probe the stupidity of fanboys and whether they will sink as low as shedding $30 for a demo. If successful, we will be seeing more of this crap in the future. Just wait till EA gets a hold of it. If not, well... they will try again later.
Also, I had no idea Kojima had finally sold out himself. This is beneath him. Seriously.
Exactly. 4k resolution + unlocked fps... PC all the way.
Publishers are getting greedier by the moment. MGS4 was a huge game that lasted hours on end and this shit is suppose to be next gen experience. So hey - let's release a 2 hour tease just so we can probe if enough idiots buy our shit... if successful we shove this down their throats until we can sell them just minutes of game play... hell, why not sell us the control scheme separately... fucking ridiculous.
I seriously don't even care about the price drop. If it was ...
It's Japan. Why are people even surprised?
How can you know? Seriously, have you tried to game? Can you shed more light on the whole thing? Or are you just one of those who've jumped the hype train the moment they released the CGI trailer?
I like to be an optimist and get amped for a game but this is just... EDIT: Apparently someone posted couple of in-game screenshots bellow. Damn, it does look good.
Indie developers are the ones making a change - they need to come up with something truly unique and innovative in order to attract the attention of the crowds. Triple A developers and studios take the safe option - that is why we have Battlefield 4, Call of Duty 7, Gears of War 4, Forza 5, GTA5, Gran Turismo 6, Assassin's Creed 4... you get my point.
I am not saying AAA games aren't good (they've earned the status for more than the budget), just with the recent ...
The new Doom looks like the Brutal Doom mode just with 2015 graphics. Sorry but nothing beats that.
