Just bring the game already. Who cares about polys.

fsfsxii4029d ago

Ok, go back and play Atari 2600
Thats according to your logic

Blacklash934029d ago

He's right. Next-gen should also be about better AI, better physics, bigger spaces with more interactivity, ect.

This new Thief game being entirely based around dynamic shadows for stealth is a perfect example of next-gen tech being used to enhance gameplay.

Thief 4 awesome design.
Day one.

Roccetarius4028d ago

The question is, does the previous master learn from the student? (Dishonored)

Personally i think their answers ring hollow to me, so we'll see what happens when it releases.

Baka-akaB4028d ago

All i know is that the square based eidos has so far nailed , at least in my book , those reboot and relaunch of older eidos franchise ... and even true crime with Sleeping Dogs

An update from Eidos Montréal

Crafting emotions since 2007.

The Embracer Group brings the Embrace of Death, once again.

staticall76d ago

Yeah, they should be renamed to Embarrassment Group at this point. Bought every studio they could lay their hands on just to fire people from them, close them or cancel their games.

ROCKY2875d ago

100 % The CEO is a PIG and it showcases how Embarrassment Group has always been a sham of a company
within the game industry !

Eonjay75d ago

Seems like the most turnover is being generated by companies making acquisitions and cuts.

Ahhhh a man of culture, Futurama is the best.

It's like they don't know their behinds from their elbows.

UPS just signed all their drivers to a huge contract.

In order to afford the contract, UPS is laying off management.

That's how all of this should work. Lay off management. That's how a business can be more "efficient."

God this hurts, I love Eidos Montreal. They make great games.

Si-Fly75d ago

They’ve not closed the studio.

VincentVanBro75d ago

I know, but they laid off 97 employees and canceled my most anticipated release from their studio.

Xenial75d ago

Shouldn't laugh because of the situation. But that did make me lol.

Psychonaut8575d ago

Bro f$&k Embracer. How do companies not even understand basic concepts like “don’t count your chickens before they hatch”? And now all these peoples lives are upended because of it.

KwietStorm_BLM75d ago

Fkn trash. They had no business buying up all those studios with house money. I been waiting so long for the next Deus Ex. All these large scale consolidations are bleeding out the industry one at a time.

CantThinkOfAUsername75d ago

They were banking on Saudi money. When the Saudi Government backed down everything fell apart.

XiNatsuDragnel77d ago
