VGU.tv reports on the antics of Borderlands 2 writer, Anthony Burch, on twitter last night. It started as a whine post about not being nominated for a BAFTA award for his work on Borderlands 2 while criticising a game that did. The result was being informed that Borderlands 2 may not have been worthy and a series of funny twitter posts.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Red Dead Redemption 2 wins 'Best Game Sequel' in BAFTA poll, surpassing Half-Life 2 in a landmark victory.
hmm kinda out there i find red dead 2 a over hyped game i am sure there are other's out there worthy of this award.
Are we saying rdr 2 mp is better than the first one?
The cover shooting better on #2 than #1?
I mean they reused 80% of rdr 1 map on rdr 2
Red Dead Redemption 1 was better. A better story that's for sure but the world in red Dead Redemption 2 is fantastic. But overall yes Red Dead Redemption 2 is overhyped but with best living World ever made.
Oh rdr 2 world how you leave tracks what you can do and the npc's are great no doubt
For me its the forced guns one way to play missions and the camp you can do nothing be a ass and there is no change sense none of the hunting/donating.bounty/karma etc even taking care of your horse matters. Then you got the horse inventory along with them bringing in realistic inventory but at the same time have that slomo crap pick a lane is it a wild west sim or a max payne rip off.
Plus who cares about the mp. Single player is where it's at.
I don't think it's the best sequel either. I liked it but I can see why some say it's overhyped. That's because it was. Great game still. I'd take xcom 2 as a better sequel. I'm sure there's plenty others.
We care about mp because of gta v even if you been living under a rock you know what gtao did to gta v dlc.
Though rdr 2 mp failed it still put time/resources and budget away from the single player for a subpar experience compared to the first.
Hmmm don’t know about that one myself. There’s some good sequels there….
No way last of us 2 was a better sequel than the original resident evil 2. The story of TLOU2 was a huge let down for me!
Assassins creed 2 was a vast improvement over the original and still the very best of the entire franchise imo.
Half-life 2 will always be legendary.
RDR2 is great but the best sequel ever? I don’t think so… just my opinion though I guess
I also enjoyed TLOU2 but RDR2 edges it out for me. Both hit me in the feels but RDR2 just a little bit more lol.
Sure, if you started playing game yesterday and just for this series. Otherwise? lol... No.
BAFTA to recognise the SIE veteran's work "as a champion of independent developers".
Well deserved! He’s done a lot since he’s been with PlayStation. Glad to see him helping external independent creators now.
Well Deserved, He has a strong passion for games.
I am sure that the not acquiring the souls series haunts him to this day.
He should replace Jim Rayn as CEO of Sony
Borderlands 2 was pretty damn funny and had several amusing characters, but the actual meat of the plot wasn't anything special. It's was all pretty cliche and skin-deep.
But I'm pretty sure this guy knows the humor was a hit with the fans. Why get all butthurt over an award?
I absolutely loved the writing in Borderlands 2 - but it's pretty unprofessional for him to attack the writing of another game in the way he did.
I loved borderlands 2, i laughed every time i played the game..
esp. that claptrap lol
But that was quite unprofessional of him calling out the BAFTA nominees. Thou I understand it's his personal twitter, but he should know that anything on the internet is public domain.
also: "He was promptly put in his place" <--- what...?
Hey Ant, Why're Ya Bitching?
Apologizes*
