Gi - The next generation is upon us in the world of video games. Whether you consider it starting with the launch of the Wii U or the unveiling of the PlayStation 4, we are heading right into the thick of another console war. Though the Wii U may not feel like something truly new to some, there is little doubt that gamers felt like the PlayStation 4 was what they had been hoping for from the future; and no doubt that Sony’s next gen attempt is looking strong. The one company that we have yet to hear anything from is Microsoft. While the next Xbox, presumably called the Xbox 720, hasn’t tipped its hand as of yet, it looks as though we could be on the verge of an announcement or even a partial unveiling in the next couple of months.
The official launch of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is finally upon us! The game is now available for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
M$ has Halo as their mascote. If they use the power in the new console to make Halo a fresh experience, that will sell more consoles than announcing 20 new wishy washy IP's.
New IP are always welcome, but I reject the idea that M$ needs a boat load of exclusives to be succesful against Sony. What would be more important, would be to some how enhance the experience of gaming on the phatform. Whether that is done by: xbox live; controller; frame rate; image projection; ... or what ever.
But exclusive IP's are only effective if they are better than what is offered by 3rd party. That does not happen very often. 3rd party are just as good and ofen time better than 1st party.
But the problem is they won't
If there is a time when we can expect Microsoft to show up exclusives, it'll be at the beginning of this gen. I'm sure that whoever gets a 361 won't be disappointed (I'm probably getting one as well).
Kinect gamea
Halo
Forza
Fable
Gears
Interactive tv crap
That is OK, like the movie industry, I only tend to watched a few blockbuster movies per year. As long as Microsoft continue to supply me with Halo, Gears, Forza, I will be a satisfied customer because 98% of my game purchase is third party anyway and with today's economy, I really can't afford multiple systems and games in the future anymore. It is the same story every year, last year I bought Halo 4, Forza Horizon, and the Witcher 2 for my x360 and nothing for my Phat PS3. It is not the quantity that matters, it is the quality.
Can't wait for the next xbox. I know Microsoft will support its gamers.
