With each console iteration a vast majority of features are improved and expanded upon. Microsoft's trio of exclusive titles, Dead Rising 3, Forza Motorsport 5, and Ryse: Son of Rome each exemplify a different aspect of the Xbox One's new prominence.
From underrated Xbox One launch titles to absolute emperors of the strategy genre, history heads will love these games based around Ancient Rome.
Ryse was awesome, i have no idea why it wasnt recieved well and why we havnt seen another, Rome conquered so much, you could take the action anywhere, and it looked great when xbox one came out, now would be even better.
Ryse: Son of Rome was an Xbox One launch title that has been left to collect dust, but Crytek should set aside Crysis and give Ryse another shot.
I really liked the original Ryse but Crytek doesn't have the funds. The mismanaged their properties and let EA raid them with Crysis for the duration of their relationship. Right now they are working on Crysis 4, I doubt they can spare resources to work on a Ryse sequel.
I recently bought it for the steamdeck and have to say... 60fps is a game changer. I really wished MS had gotten a one x patch or series boost mode option but sadly, nope. Other games that definitely deserve a second chance (esp on steamdeck/pc) are quantum break and sunset overdrive. Both deserved 60fps support on one x / series but you have to go to PC for that.
Rumor has it Crytek had plans for a Ryse 2 but due to the low turnout for XB (at the time) it was shelved. They really should give this another shot. i dont care if its multiplat on PS and XB and PC and Switch... just so long as part 2 gets made.
Game was good enough, not great.
Graphically it was top notch. Still holds well till this day.
Xbox Game Pass Quests recently reset for the month of August. So if you try to collect as many Microsoft Rewards points as possible, there's a new set available now.
This is not what I would call value for money spent. They give you quests in liveservice games to get you "re-engaged" with the monetization schemes or to get you hooked or so you at least spend some extra on skins and loot boxes. Then they dole out paltry points after you have already paid extra for whichever liveservice within a liveservice that you are already paying for. My worry is people can't actually be that stupid to fall for this, can they?
Will check out DR3 this week been hearing good things see you in co-op.
RYSE , amazing graphics...
Examiner is starting to really pick up on their journalistic integrity especially with articles such as this one. It really gives the gamer a different perspective on what to expect with some of the leading titles for the XBox One.
Bravo!! Well done
For me, these three titles have been solid...
Forza 5 is a solid entry for the Forza franchise and the graphics are stunning. And its application of the drivatar through the cloud is very cool.
Deadrising 3 shows how X1 can really handle a lot happening on the screen at once. No Zombie game has put that many Zombies on screen at once...
Ryse. The graphics in Ryse are second to none. And the gameplay is good... Not great, but good. I found myself stopping at many areas and looking around for graphical flaws and I could not find any. This game is truly awesome graphically, and a good game to boot.
