2012 offered some pretty amazing games. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford to buy every game they want at launch. Maybe a game or two just slipped under your radar, or you were ‘on the fence’ about buying a particular title at full price. That’s just life.
Fortunately, some of last year’s best titles can now be bought for less than thirty bucks! If you haven’t played the following games yet, then you need to surf on over to Amazon or Steam and do some shopping.
(Most of these prices are available on Amazon and/or Steam, and most of these games are eligible for free ‘Prime’ shipping on Amazon.)
Does cowabunga truly say it all?
Tales of Kenzera: Zau conveys its somber themes with nuance and passion. It's just a shame the gameplay doesn't always match those highs.
Xbox Game Studios, The Initiative and Crystal Dynamics' upcoming reboot of Perfect Dark will offer a Quality and a Performance mode.
Me too.
I expect Hellblade 2 to be the start of a consistent stream of UE5 XGS titles. It's basically their default engine, save for ForzaTech and the proprietary engines in use at Activision and Bethesda.
Really looking forward to seeing the Forzatech based Fable. Playground games has had a great track record with the Horizon series, so lets see.
There's no way it would release in 2021 especially when it was announced at the VGA's 2020.
@lightning, that’s when the first trailer was shown, but it was known to be in development much earlier and Xbox fans were tooting it to be released years ago, the initiative studio formed in 2018, and to my knowledge have not released a game
That’s 6 years and all you got is a trailer and some empty promises
Good one from Microsoft, yet again.
Such is game development, long developmental cycles is one of the big black eyes of the industry. I don't see you complaining about Wolverine that got announced in 2021, releasing in 2026 and only got one trailer.
@ lightning
Nice try but for one, 2021 - 2025 would only be 5 years not 6,
And for two insomniac have developed multiple games or have multiple games in development over that time, and the initiative only have the 1 game to be concerned with
For three, we all know the quality Wolverine will be and although I do hope perfect dark is good, it’s unlikely to be as good as insomniacs proven track record
@purple101
Dude, not all studios are managed equally & perform similarly... stop comparing and undermining people's works. Stop comparing veteran studios with newly created one.
Stop console/studio warring all the time.
Insomniac, capcom, Ubisoft can churn out multiple games year after year, doesn't mean other studios are trash.
There was 5 years gap between Ascension and GoW'18, 6 years between Original Sin II and BG3, 7 years between Max Payne 2 and Alan Wake etc, etc. A lot goes behind the scene. Projects gets redone/ cancelled.
Happens in our work place as well.
Can you define “see”? Microsofts notorious for showing CGI movies as substitution for gameplay.
Agreed. They know they gotta come out swinging on this one. I’m pretty excited for it. Franchise is near and dear to me.
Good thing they got Crystal Dynamics to make it, at least they know how to make a game that has 60 fps.
Dope. Just curious. Is this a "Xbox win" or "uggh REMAKE"? Or that only applies to Sony remakes?
Love how Microsoft had this big new flash studio called The Imitative who were going to make this game and then everyone started quitting and they had to outsource it to CD.
Microsoft needs to figure out their crap, too many studios being run poorly.
XCOM is awesome.
Oh and why isn't Mass Effect 3 on here? It's only $10 now! Best game of 2012 easy! Even Game Informer said so!
The walking Dead Telltale game= have some feels lol
The walking dead game was awesome.
