Hey!!! WT- why didn't i win the Loyal Reader Lottery. even though i have the highest Daily login in points than anyone here on N4G.

Cat4636d ago

You were entered, you did not win!

As posted in each month's contest details:

"*Just a note: I'm sorry the Daily Visit score isn't more 'every day' instead of its current 'every 24h1m', but that is just the front end tracking for you guys and when we run the lotto we pull from a more accurate list. So for those of you visiting every day diligently but not triggering the Daily Visit score reward, don't stress about it!"

Congrats everyone. =]

Cat4636d ago

Please don't spread misinformation :)

It means that the Daily Visit score logs 24hr visit to 24hr visit, while we pull the lottery winners from those users that have visited the site at least once each calendar day.

-Alpha4635d ago

Dude you always get 3 free games, take it and run!

Legion4620d ago (Edited 4620d ago )

You should actually be stripped of any winnings due to poor submission editing. (just one is all it takes)

I had thought there was a way to rate someones submissions but I don't see that option anywhere. They need to bring that back.

Example of no editing and still getting approval: http://n4g.com/news/847358/...

All Hopes I Had For A Prey Sequel Have Been Crushed — Well Done, Microsoft

The magnificent Prey was once again abandoned as Microsoft disregarded Arkane Austin's achievements and crucified it just for Redfall.

RaidenBlack15h ago

well, not entirely ... the main Arkane studio i.e Arkane Lyon's still there ...
Its only that, the sequel will take more time now ... after Blade & Dishonored 3

-Foxtrot14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Not even this Prey

Still longing for a sequel to the original Prey with Tommy

The studio didn't even want to call this Prey, it was just Bethesda being dicks to them for some reason.

RaidenBlack9h ago

MS closed Roundhouse Studios (ex-Human Head Studios) as well

isarai6h ago

Came here to say this, my hooes for a Prey sequel died when this "Prey" came out

LostPotato14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

Keep dreaming then as Prey and Dishonored 2 did not sell well enough to get sequels.

Hence we got Deathloop and Redfall instead.

RaidenBlack9h ago

lol, Deathloop came from Prey: Mooncrash idea

i hope so, definitely gonna get one.

Hugodastrevas9h ago

I've always been a huge PlayStation fan, but I must ask, what for? The PS5 doesn't need to punch graphical fidelity further at this point, we need games.
There's no need for me to trade my OG PS5 with an SSD 1tb SSD in it for a "PS5 pro".

Lightning779h ago

Grubbs credibility is shaky in the past 3 years now. He came from being fairly credible to just meh not so much lately.

Probably be announced at their showcase.

The rumor is the latter half of the month Sony will have their showcase. I'll guess May 24.

Lightning779h ago

Sorry off topic Apparently a new a new Sly Cooper might be in development also according to Grubb. Again Grubbs credibility is iffy.

That would be a bomb being dropped I've been waiting forever if true.

M3talDiamond8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

Well the PS5 Pro is supposed to be released near the end of the year according to rumors so if that's true I'm surprised Sony still haven't made any announcement yet. Its the Middle of 2024 and the PS5 Pro is supposed to be released at the end of the year so how come there isn't any official announcement from Sony? There isn't much time left in the year to build hype around a console that's going to be released within 7 months. I might be wrong but I think Jeff Grubb is correct with this rumor

CrashMania7h ago

If they announce it too early it might impact console sales for months, imo they won't announce it this month, but 1-2 months from release at the most.

One Year Later, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Has Timelessly Free Gameplay

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has already cemented its legacy through its sprawling open world and commitment to player freedom.

Yesterday I was playing and there was a puzzle with two gears, (one moving and one stationary) and I couldn’t figure out how to get the stationary gear moving .

I took my spear and stuck it against moving gear and it transferred the motion to the stationary gear and that solved the puzzle.

I was so shocked I went online to see what was the intended way to solve this and I didn’t see anyone solve it quite the way I did (from the few videos I watched).

I definitely believe that this “intuitive” gameplay is the future of game design.

ZeekQuattro47m ago

Indeed. The number of puzzles I solved thinking this will never work surprised me. One puzzle had me wanting to pull my hair out though. It was one of the jet rail puzzles. I looked up tips and one solution was as simple as creating a box and draping it over the rail and riding that across as you stood in the middle of it. I was done. 🤣
