Surfer Girl: thrashed PS3-exclusive Far Cry, Wolfenstein, CoD5

Surfer Girl is back with four new rumors. Take these with a grain of salt:

1) Wolfenstein is coming late summer/early next fall for PS360 and PC.

2) Treyarch is currently working three titles that will see release next fall, Spider-Man: Red vs. Black "featuring an original plotline chronicling one of the comic world's greatest rivalries," Call of Duty 5 "a historical shooter that introduces many innovative ideas never-before-seen in the series that will excite fans," and James Bond 007 (working title) "an explosive action game with a strong online component that lives up to the legacy of the greatest action character of all-time" that will be the first of annual releases.

Treyarch is working on all of them? Spidey, COD5 and James Bond? How many staff do they have?

predator6024d ago

i think people are worried about cod5 bein done by Treyarch when they seem to forget that their multiplayer in cod3 was amazing,

back to the article, also SG said a crakdown sequel is not happening? i doubt that they would not make due to it selling so well and it was a good game, of course there will be a sequel

MK_Red6024d ago

While I liked COD3, I think it's too much for a company to work on 3 huge games at once, one of them being sequel to the uber great COD4.

Polluted6023d ago

I despised COD: 3, but I played the PS3 version which was a buggy mess, so maybe I missed out.

sonarus6024d ago

lol wow. jst cudnt let that go could you. the kid in you cudnt even if the whole thing was a rumor to begin with frm an unnanounced title

HarryEtTubMan6024d ago

haha keep laughing but the PS3 has the best lineup EASILY next year and proablly 2009. hah ha ha ha ha I'm lauhging with you.

rubarb236023d ago

you sound hungry and desperate, here have something to eat my friend.

Polluted6023d ago

So instead of a half-assed Far Cry: Evolution port or something, PS3 owners are getting the same version of Far Cry 2 as everyone else. You think we give two sh*ts if 360 owners get to play the game too? Personally I have better things to do with my life than sit around giggling about how 360 owners won't get to play some "exclusive" game, but you go right ahead if that's what you're into.

Seriously, what's the big deal with exclusivity? If you play a game and enjoy it, why would you not want it to be available to some 6 million PS3 owners as well. Or some 12 million 360 owners?

FF7numba16023d ago

lol @ ps3 picture. i have a picture of the xbox 360 frying eggs.

Bolts6023d ago

So let me get this right, the PS3 lost Far Cry a game that is virtually prehistoric by now and gained Far Cry 2, a brand spanking new game...and this is bad how??

"surfer Girl" is infact "lazy 40 year old man living with his mum, w@nking over all the attention he's getting"....

just me or?

Saint Sony6024d ago (Edited 6024d ago )

Just you I think.. or should I say, LIKE YOU?

ok seriously though, yep I kinda hate Surfergirl. The name already gives me chills. Your description of her/him/thing/it may even turn out to be true.

mighty_douche6024d ago

hmmm perhaps i AM surfer girl. it would be interesting to create a website full of romour and speculation and see how long it takes to turn up on N4G with fanboys screaming at each other like its fact/confirmed.

oh sorry, i forgot, your not allowed to lie on the internet are you, its FACT only right.

Bolts6023d ago

I prefer to picture Jade Raymond as surfer girl if you don't mind.

goldenxbox6024d ago

Can't wait to play the brand new EXCLUSIVE version of Far Cry, and then Far Cry 2 on the same Xbox 360 next year !!!!

Hooray for new IPs !!!!

monks6024d ago

sorry to say at this current time Far Cry 2 is PC only nothing else has been said as far as i am aware

i have not heared any statements on what next-gen systems this will be released on

Statix6023d ago

Surfer Girl says FC2 is coming to next-gen consoles.

Bolts6023d ago

Where in that article did it say the 360 is getting Far Cry and Far Cry 2 exclusive? You FAILED at reading comprehension.

kspraydad6024d ago

surfer girl site?

I'ts a bunch of made up drivel and she/he has yet to actually have a rumour that A: turned out true and B: wasn't already known.

Just stop supporting this crap.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's Scope Was Impacted by Xbox Series S Limitations

Wccf tech writes: "Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's scope was impacted by the Xbox Series S hardware limitations, as developers could only make a game that was 25% bigger than its predecessor."

This is the issue with things like this

Xbox Series X is apparently to MS the worlds most powerful console

However the Series S is obviously a limitation because it’s underpowered and developers have to go for parity.

So what’s the point of the world’s most powerful console if you are holding third party developers back? They aren’t going to push themselves if they have to think about the weakest console.

The issue wouldn’t be as bad if it was just Xbox but you are also affecting the PS version aswell

I think developers need to start just taking advantage of a console and if one of them can’t do X Y and Z then f*** them…why should the others suffer. What’s MS going to do? The bigger the franchise the least chance MS are going to tell them to f*** off. Baulders Gate 3 seemed to have stood their ground and suddenly their “strict” parity rule didn’t really matter. We suddenly got super optimisation efforts for the Series S that got things sorted.

anast8h ago

I agree, and the sad part is use normal folk saw it the second they announced their plans.

Abear214h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Agree 100% this is why I didn’t want the M$ Monopoly, now PS5 version will be held back too.

If PS5 Pro comes out and Series S is still a thing it’ll be interesting what differences and what devs choose to do. Really hoping Rockstar pushes the PS5 pro with GTA6 and we get the best version possible.

outsider16242h ago

Good ole S indeed. Everyone knew this all along. S was holding games back...Now where the hell is Orchard i want a word with him.

LucasRuinedChildhood13h ago

More info from the author of the article, I think: https://www.reddit.com/r/ki...

Quote:
"1) I was told this info from the producer of the game Martin Klíma.
2) He specifically said the game will have only one mode.
3) And this mode is 4K 30 on PS5/XSX and 1440p 30 on XSS.
4) He said that the game is already running north of the 30 FPS cap so the performance should be stable on launch, much better than KCD1.
5) The limitation was XSS because of the 10GB memory. He said that's why they wanted to make the game 25% larger.
6) Speculation on my part: the output resolution is probably upscaled and the reason why there won't be a 60 FPS mode is because it'll most likely be very CPU heavy, like Dragon's Dogma 2 for example."

Doesn't seem like they're adding a 40fps mode on PS5/Series X for launch even if they can handle it.

Sgt_Slaughter8h ago

I'd much rather have 1440p/60fps or even 45fps. Having just one, even with the Series S in mind, is disappointing.

franwex7h ago(Edited 7h ago)

Remember when xbots were adamant that the series s won’t hold back the gen?

Microsoft just needs to let go of the mandatory parity. Who cares if your grandma doesn’t understand that a game cannot be played on the S. It’s not like it she can buy you a physical game for it anyway. Before buying the game put up a notice that it only works on series X. If you’re buying for a friend-allow for a refund.

Bam. Everyone is happy. Most series s owners are for casuals that want Game Pass anyway and most likely don’t purchase most games.

If the developers want it to run on S, let them figure it out.

Chocoburger1h ago

If it were Series X only then they'd only be selling to 25% of the Xbox Series userbase, and that's certainly not worth the time and effort into doing a port. Could just do PS5 & PC instead. No compromises needed.

Jin_Sakai7h ago

“During the event, the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 producer also revealed that on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the game will run at 4K resolution and 30 frames per second“

Another “creative decision” right? 🤦‍♂️

IHateNate6h ago

Amateur hour. Very incapable developer.

Outside_ofthe_Box6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Since you're not an amateur and clearly know more than them, can you over there and help get the game running on the S without having to sacrifice their true vision. Us gamers would really appreciate you using your wisdom for good 🙏

IHateNate6h ago

Thousands of games run just fine on S.

But Kingdom Come is the game that can’t. Must be one hell of a game!

franwex4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Thousands of games run on PS4 and on Switch. If developers want them to run on those systems. Fine. Those two platforms still get new games. Sony isn’t making studios also make a ps4 pro version, or Nintendo a wiiu version. Microsoft technically is.

IHateNate3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

If games like Alan Wake 2, GTA6, COD, hellblade all run on S, no excuse for this 100x smaller and 100x worse looking game to be held back.

outsider16242h ago(Edited 2h ago)

"Thousands of games run just fine on S.

But Kingdom Come is the game that can’t. Must be one hell of a game!"

Kingdom come 2 runs just fine alright. Its the SCOPE that they want. They had to cut it because of the stupid S series. Hellblade2 ran just fine too..but im pretty confident if it was just the X in mind, the scope of the game would have been much bigger.

IHateNate2h ago

So their scope is greater than that of GTA6 and warzone? Wow. Crazy
