"I think we can all agree that this console generation has dragged a bit. It mean't we've had to endure sequel after sequel.
Don't get me wrong I love a good sequel. Especially when the developers have listened to feedback and made improvements to further add to a franchise. Sometimes merely continuing a captivating story can in some cases be reason enough to bring out a sequel.
But when when i'm buying a games 3/4 or even 5th iteration, yet I feel nothing has greatly changed, surely something is wrong. A Lot of creativity has been lost towards the end of this console generation, and here is a list of franchises I hope don't bother us with more boring cash-ins over the next couple of years."
2024 has become filled with games, and now is the perfect time to play some classic and new. Check out the Best Android Games of 2024!
The Xbox brand has done a lot of good over the years, but their various blunders are pretty wild to look back on in their magnitude.
Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)
Phil Spencer is the worst that has happened to Xbox.
They built a respectable brand up to Xbox one. Then this guy took over and things became a joke
Really good video.
I remember the days with RRoD was big news on here, N4G.
Microsoft had it turbulence number of years.
Looking at the success of Sea of Thieves despite being 6 years old, time to release Halo, Forza horizon 4 & 5 on PS5. It'll help their revenue
I found this video painful to watch. Can someone list them out?
Top 10 for me from are:
1. 2013 reveal presentation
2. Bundling Kinect 2 with Xbox One
3. RRoD or why rushing to market with hardware is always a bad idea.
4. Buying studios only to close them.
5. Ads on the Home Screen
6. Letting Halo die.
7. Letting Geard of War die.
8. Every console name
9. Charging for Xbox Live on Xbox 360 when Sony let PS3 players play online for free.
10. Cancelling release of OG Xbox games after the Xbox 360 launched.
Microsoft recently revealed its plans to incorporate Copilot directly into video games, with Minecraft being the first showcased example.
F*** AI
"Hey Copilot, what's a good meme to prove I dislike AI".... https://giphy.com/clips/sou...
Two trillion dollar company that just can't wait to put as many people possible out of work as fast as possible.
It feels like every single thing they do is making gaming worse and destroying the industry.
Why all the hate? Im actually excited about this! Always wanted this kind of immersion, and an AI companion with me all the time helping me out knowing the status of my skills/inventory/progress and giving me tips on the best approach or how to craft something specific is game changing for the industry.
Hate all you want about AI, but this is just the start and I can see the potential already. You wont be complaining in the next 5-10 years about this, but rather complain if a game hasn’t implemented it.
That's some interesting choices that fella has got there, but he missed out the second 'ass' in assassin.
What a trolling, flamebait article with absolutely nothing good about it. "There's a popular series, I hope it dies."
No, seriously, look at the list here:
Halo
Assassin's Creed
Gears of War
Final Fantasy
Angry Birds
Ghost Recon
Uncharted
Call of Duty
And the author lists no good explanation for any of these, really, so...
I don't want any of those franchise to be discontinued, even call of duty has its place in the gaming world. It's like the author has just made himself a list of some of the best games this generation O.o
I get what the author is saying to a degree but I would prefer maybe some sort of Re-boot in SOME of these series or a new storyline/protagonist that may still be in the same "universe" as its predecessor but go in a different direction. One example might be an Assassin's Creed 200 years in the future...or an Angry Pigs where they finally get some sweet retribution ... perhaps even and Uncharted where we see an aging Sully flipping channels in a rest home only to find there's buried treasure under the ol' maintenance shack.... ok started losing my train of thought there.. but Should these series go away? I don't think so - but something more then a fresh coat of paint would be nice too. Either way I'll be playing all the same
I don't want final fantasy to die. I want them to fix it and make it like 1-10. They've lost their soul.
