The most promising Xbox RPGs of 2013 and beyond

OXM - Nothing gets us hotter under the collar or moister of armpit than the thought of a new role-playing game - and the years ahead are ablaze with promise on that count, despite a general unwillingness to share details for fear of giving away the status of next gen hardware.

I was disappointed by DA2 but I think DA3 will be interesting, providing there's truth to the rumours about taking control of the inquisition.

One thing I'd like them to do with the next gen hardware is dramatically increase the number and variety of combat animations, so that battles look like actual, properly choreographed battles rather than people knocking hitpoints off each other.

Mass Effect 4
Cyberpunk 2077
Fallout 4
Dragon Age 3
Dark Souls 2
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
Lightning Returns FF13
South Park The Stick of Truth

landog4100d ago

i'll be playing all of these games!

cannot wait

though i will be playing them all on pc, except dragons dogma expansion, might pick that up on ps3 or 360, depending on which platform runs better

KnightRobby4100d ago

The Witcher 3 is going to be amazing. I am really hoping they nail the entire open-world feel while maintaining the affect a player has on the world.

linkenski4100d ago

If they make a proper jump mechanic, it would make the world so much more impressive.

PS4isKing_824100d ago

Gotta say that's a pretty lame list of games.
Seriously? Lightning returns and mass effect 4?
Those have become two of the most hated series from this gen.

And the rest in that list isn't anything special either.

ShugaCane4100d ago

If you find nothing special in Cyberpunk 2077 or Fallout 3, maybe you should keep playing Halo or Call of Duty.

Good_Guy_Jamal4100d ago

No offense but you're way off on Mass Effect. 3's ending may have angered a vocal view but the series in no way hated by many.

hano4100d ago

Well Mass effect has become stale.

Perjoss4100d ago

hano, you have to have some faith my friend, for all we know ME4 could be even better than ME1, lets wait and see shall wee. Nobody is saying you gotta go out and buy it on day 1, but at least give them the benefit of the doubt until the reviews start rolling in.

hano4100d ago (Edited 4100d ago )

If people want RPG's they should get a gaming PC.
That's where the really good RPGs are coming.

Wastelands 2, Project Eternity, ShadowRun...and many more.

All Campfire Locations in Fortnite: Chapter 5 Season 2 Guide

ESTNN writes: "The easiest campfire can be found in the middle of the lake close to Restored Reels. Landing in the middle of the island immediately puts you near the campfire, which is surrounded by a tent, a barrel and a single lawn chair."

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC14h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer15h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey60215h ago(Edited 14h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya13h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde13h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP4h ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

RavenWolfx12h ago

Yeah, I loved the Legends games so much.

ZeekQuattro20h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia18h ago(Edited 18h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B18h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff218318h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh17h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia17h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins18h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal17h ago

The first game was the best imo.
