"A couple of weeks ago it was rumored that the new issue of GamesMaster contains the first official Enslaved Review and that the score was quite decent – 86%. In the meantime the rumor was confirmed by the magazine’s subscribers, but the first Enslaved Review Scans are surfacing only now, and here."
GB: "With this feature, we talk about 15 games on the PS3 that should be remade for the PlayStation 5."
Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.
Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.
A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.
Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.
Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.
I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.
Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.
I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.
From Xfire: "It's not unusual to see the occasional bad PC port, but these ones make the bad PC ports look great in comparison."
To be fair with GTAIV, it was a very CPU bound game, released at a time when the vast majority of PC gamers still believed that the CPU was nearly irrelevant, and that you only needed a good GPU. 95% of "gaming" builds back then were using turds for CPUs.
Joseph, Josh, and Chris go over a striking Sony decision, a Star Wars: Knights of the Republic remake seems to be happening, and local JRPG lover Chris talks about Atelier Firis DX.
Thanks, that's all I needed to know, can't wait to play it :D
I warn everyone though, after reading the article, they are doing a minor spoiler about the ending on page 4 (it occurs 2 times) :/ And it's also found in the last quote from the magazine they make in the article.
I played the demo and while the core gameplay isn't that special or great by any means, they definitely sold it well. The presentation is great. Platforming is like Uncharted2 but the controls aren't as tight. So far it feels a lot like heavenly sword, good but not great.
I agree. It felt wrong. Combat felt clumsy as did climbing and even just walking. Nice effort to try and mix up the gameplay but this definately won't be on my must buy list. Rental or used maybe
Andy serkis ftw!... hope they fix the screen tears before release though.
definatley getting day one im a big fan of ninja theory loved heavenly sword too.
