FruityGamers:
Has 2012 Been the Worst Year for Gamers in this Century So Far?
I once thought the release of great games came at regular intervals, with each year having five or six brought out during the Spring and Winter periods to go alongside our runny-noses and inability to do anything outdoors due to frightful weather.
You can clear your wanted levels in Star Wars Outlaws by defeating the death troopers.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 has received a substantial visual upgrade, and we've put together a comparison that shows the improvements.
Why market something that isn't designed to be sold?
This has GP rental written all over it.
They just posted a 20+ minute video about Psychosis and how the game portrays that through Senua.
Regardless of what Microsoft is doing (retweeting Ninja Theory is about as low effort as it gets, and Dashboard Dynamic Themes should've come months ago), Ninja Theory themselves are at least trying.
It's sad though. That new video was a really good behind-the-scenes too, and it just came at such a bad time.
How much marketing do games really need these days? People that play games know when its coming out. I really think the days of the constant tv ad etc are going the way of the Dodo. What scares me more is the lack of "previews" on big video game websites, it only got a few on April 4th and then nothing since.
Wow Tankbusta40 how out of touch with reality can you be, mate. Do you think companies are insane to spend millions on having giant billboards for big releases and TV adverts and superbowl slots and round the clock PR and interviews? Most of the people who buy games aren't on gaming forums like these knowing the exact release dates!
This isn't being marketed because Microsoft isn't selling the product, it's a Game Pass day one and they don't throw their weight behind games like this.
Most likely. Otherwise more people would know about the game....most people don't...it'll drive some in Gamepass but that's probably going to be it.
It appears Sony is making changes to the PSN backend in order to pave the way for future cross-platform releases across PC and PS5.
If sony want their games to be more successful on pc and to sell more they need to bring the games day-one like helldivers 2! , and not after 2 years.
If it's first party (can't speak on Helldivers) then the PS5 should be focused on first in my opinion rather than worrying about 2 versions.
Nixxes takes completed code and ports that to PC. I'm sure they do work during primary development but I like this setup.
PS5 owners are treated as first class by their platform holder, PC players get the final complete version, and GaaS are treated separately. Win-win.
Sony should follow the Microsoft route and kill Playstation the same way MS has killed Xbox? Are you serious?
First party ps5 games need to be ps5 only until 6 months imo because they need to sell consoles still and then focus on PC later.
This makes sense, just now doing it shows how behind and short-sighted regarding PC they were to begin with.
I'm already not buying a PS5 Pro or PS6 and it isn't day one, They are already damaging themselves.
ummm...diablo 3, dishonored, halo 4, guild wars 2, torchlight 2, xcom, and countless other great games, with more to come like far cry 3 and hitman.
this year has been EPIC and loaded with great games
You're probably just feeling the current-gen fatigue. Good games did come out.. they were just.. to similar to their predecessors.
Journey, Gravity Rush, Tales of Graces, P4 Arena. P4 Golden today. More stuff to come. Not a bad year for me.
Was AC3 this much of a letdown?! Also, I don't believe that dishonoured was just more of what we see every year...
All in all, with games as ME3, AC3, Borderlands 2, Xcom, Dishonoured and Hitman, I think this was a pretty good year already in gaming - and there's still FarCry 3 on the way, right?
