Rogue City reveals that RoboCop and stars like Rambo and Terminator have a difficult challenge ahead if they want to remain relevant.
A few weeks after officially announcing it on X, Teyon has rolled out New Game Plus for RoboCop: Rogue City in a major update.
From Xfire: "Is Nacon's Head of Publishing making a valid point about the industry being flooded with games, or is this just a way to justify poor performance?"
Agreed. It definitely is part of it. There's just not much you can do about it. I'll check out the game cause it looked interesting to me and i grew up watching robocop. It's just not something I'm in a rush for, not willing to spend that much money on a fps game. 30 dollar mark is about right for me.
And the problem is too many people spend money buying cosmetic stuff in free to play games instead of buying full release games.
And it will only get worse I fear. While we do see all the big GaaS releases fall, the AA and Mobile GaaS that run F2P model and just rob people blind essentially. The AAA bubble is now bursting.
Hopefully this will mean medium sized releases will get bigger focus now. It's becoming impossible to meet the "Gamers want bigger worlds, bigger cinematics, bigger EVERYTHING" standards and not fall apart along the way to meet the expectations of both business needs and the customer.
I buy no cosmetics . My kids ask me for Minecraft stuff but i tell them I’ll buy them a new game or toy instead.
Robocop was released during a gaming period that is normally flooded with games. That October to December is when most heavy hitters release their games. I did pick Robo and loved it
Pandemic does play a factor. Plus companies release games as soon as their finished. If they could hold out and time it better it would help but most companies don’t have that luxury.
I am going to buy this game soon. I have been busy and always have a backlog from years past so I don’t buy as many games day 1 as I used to but I do want to play this and will order it soon.
from eXputer "Game Director of RoboCop: Rogue City says the team wants to work on some IPs, especially after the success of Terminator and RoboCop games."
I'd love to see them do a Predator game. Based on the first film, not the sequel and certainly not any of the reboots.
Predator could be incredible! Especially if based off of the first movie.
Dredd. Come on now, you know you want to see it. Get Karl Urban involved. Give us the Dredd sequel we all want.
"One of the biggest problems with RoboCop: Rogue City is it betrays the legacy of the original film. Failing to ask tough questions would be bad enough, but the game actually turns its back on the satire and cultural commentary of the original"
Explain how. It's being praised for exactly that. I think the real issue is some people not knowing what satire or social/cultural commentary is. 'Cause you gotta be kidding. This game is oozing it, aside from being one of the best Movie-based games ever.
From what I’ve heard from a couple friends that bought it is that if you are fan of the 80’s movies you will most likely enjoy this game. I was 12 I believe when the first movie came out and every kid my age back then loved Robocop so I’m buying this game in the next month or so when I finish the games I’m playing. Not expecting perfection just a RoboCop game that’s funny/corny and you get to shoot stuff while clunking around as RoboCop.
I really like the look of what I've seen of this game. Will be picking it up soon for PS5. It seems like it's definitely worth It's £45 price tag.
